The Tenth Year After the Crown Princess's Death

Lu Qingyan once hated Crown Prince Zheng Li for separating her from Prince Duan and forcing her to marry him, taking her to the Eastern Palace. Only after she died did she discover that Prince Duan had planned to use her to poison Zheng Li.

Ten years later, after her soul possessed a young palace maid, all she wanted was to leave the palace as soon as possible, return to her hometown, and stay far away from the Zheng men.

Until one winter night, unable to bear the cold, she sneaked into the abandoned old Eastern Palace to dig up the wine she had buried beneath a tree years ago.

"Who is there? What are you doing here?"

The moon hung high in the sky, its silvery light stretching across the ground and illuminating the man's stern, deep-set features. His gaze fell calmly on her, carrying an imposing weight that made her feel as if a thousand pounds pressed down on her.

Lu Qingyan froze for a moment. He looked familiar, but she could not be sure.

Only when the night breeze lifted a corner of the man's cloak, revealing a small strip of bright yellow clothing beneath, did she realize.

Lu Qingyan: "..."

It was her former husband, the crown prince, Zheng Li, now the reigning emperor for ten years.
