Lou Yu was beautiful and talented, her reputation renowned far and wide. She and the ruler of Jin were deeply in love and devoted to each other.
Then her country fell and her family was destroyed. Jin was conquered by Chen, and Lou Yu, now a defeated consort, was taken with the King of Jin to Chen.
Her beauty drew unwanted attention. Her husband was framed and thrown into prison while trying to save her.
It was said that the ruler of Chen was virtuous, talented, generous, and kind. To save her husband's life, Lou Yu had no choice but to beg the ruler of Chen. "I beg Your Majesty to show mercy and save my husband."

Her face turned deathly pale.
No one knew that before entering the palace as a consort, Lou Yu had once had a lover. Later, she had abandoned him without hesitation and chosen to enter the palace as the King of Jin's consort.
