Qiao Yuelan was born in Jiangnan. Qiao is a surname that has been loyal to generations; Yue means extraordinary; the orchid of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum is the whole wish of the wife of the general of the country - may she be as charming and talented as orchids, and be a gentle boudoir beauty.
But she prefers swords.
Later, the Qiao family was transferred to the border by order, and she walked from the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River to the windy sand outside the Great Wall. Many years later, he came to Beijing and fell in love with the fourth prince Lin Jue, his childhood sweetheart. But the imperial decree granted her a marriage to the third prince Lin Chen - a young man whom he had even forgotten that he had met once in Yucheng. She put away her thoughts and learned to treat him with respect as a guest; he buried his thoughts in his heart and treated her with courtesy. The days seemed to go on.
Until that year, the Holy Will required the Qiao family to defeat the many with few and gain more with less. Her father, uncles, and brothers all went off to war and never returned. Three hundred loyal souls, in exchange for the good news the emperor wanted.
And she is pregnant.
That night, a fire broke out in her dormitory. She caressed her unborn child and disappeared into the night. He was the one who set the fire - he sent her away with his own hands, leaving her alone to fight for the throne.
Eight years later, she knelt on the Golden Temple. He is sitting in the center of the throne, already a ninety-five-year-old man.
In the silence, she raised her head, her back as straight as her father's sword wielding towards the enemy:
"The Qiao family has been loyal for generations——"
"I just want an innocence."
Looking back on this life, she walked from the south of the Yangtze River to the border, and from the palace to the loneliness. Her mother expected her to be an orchid, but she lived to be a sword.
On the Lanque stage, the loyal soul remains.
And all she wanted was a clean slate.
Purpose: Loyalty to the king and country is more important than personal love between children
