Shen Yunyi, the daughter of the powerful prime minister, was originally a noble lady, but she was like a chess piece, quietly sent into the palace and placed beside the young emperor. She is indifferent by nature and doesn't like disputes, but she can't help but get involved in the whirlpool of intrigues. The emperor looked on with cold eyes, but occasionally gave some pointers inadvertently, seeming to be testing and protecting. When the fog gradually dissipated, Long's heart was slightly happy. He stared at her with a rare tenderness in his eyes: "You have done a good job, what reward do you want?"
But she just knelt down on the dark and cold bricks, lowered her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes, pursed her lips slightly, and had only one thought in her heart - to escape from the square palace wall and stay away from this golden cage.
The emperor's eyes suddenly darkened and anger surged, but he still suppressed his emotions and asked in a hoarse voice: "Is there nothing in this palace worthy of your nostalgia?"
Shen Yunyi slowly raised his head, his eyes as clear as frost and snow, meeting his gaze directly: "I, I am tired of fighting with those fools."
A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of the emperor's mouth, he didn't know whether he was laughing at her for being crazy or mocking his own sincerity that was quietly growing. He looked down at her, his voice low and distant:
"Do you think you are the only one trapped in a prison? I was born in an imperial family, and I have been trapped in this throne since I was a child. Have I ever been willing to do so? Being a prince has been destined to fight, fight, and win every step of the way since ancient times."
"The road in this palace is long, and who doesn't walk with a heavy burden? Even if the pain is to the bone, you can only move forward with patience."
"Look, the bird you let go flew around in circles, and finally flew back. But it was unfortunate, do you know why? - Because it has long been accustomed to the days in the cage, and has forgotten how to fly high, how to travel far, and how to protect itself. You... You understand.
