This is a novel in which the supporting character Liu Baibai awakens to his self-awareness and finds himself again.
Liu Baibai died five times, lived five times, and changed five bodies.
In her first life, she died in the corridor of Cining Palace. Two knives, one on the chest and one on the abdomen. When she closed her eyes, she thought it was all over.
But she woke up. Waking up in another body, with a different face and name.
She thought rebirth meant escaping from life. Later I learned that rebirth is a prison.
She changed five bodies and traveled to five places. She opened a willow embroidery workshop, built an orphanage, planted euphratica trees, watched martial arts competitions, and met people from other lands. She has done a lot and walked a lot.
But she could never escape from the three people.
A man is looking for her. He looked for her for five lifetimes and waited for her for five lifetimes. He has mobilized troops and imprisoned people. Finally he gave in, moved into her backyard, and planted an osmanthus tree.
One is waiting for her. He waited for her for three years and recognized her with a changed face. She has been demoted, imprisoned, and used. She blocked the knife for him, and he became the emperor for her for a day.
One guarded her. When he was seven years old, he saw a hungry concubine behind the rockery in the imperial garden. He took out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and handed it to her. She took a bite, wrapped the rest, and said she would save it for tomorrow. He remembered five lives. He stood on the tower and watched her carriage go away for five lifetimes. He had someone put a box of sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the royal desk every day for six years. He didn't say he liked her. He is the emperor, he cannot say. But there was it in the noodles he cooked and the sweet-scented osmanthus cake he made.
Who is she?
She is Liu Baibai. She is a concubine, a female official, a princess, the owner of an embroidery workshop, the director of an orphanage, and a poplar planter.
She was reborn five times, had five different identities, and did many things. She doesn't know who she is.
But some people say that you smell like osmanthus. It's your own, not given by others.
She said——
"I am a person in the book. But I live my own life."
