[Synopsis] Nalan Mingfeng, the powerful chancellor of Chu, is refined and graceful, as calm as a clear river. Yet his words can be icy poison. His face, however, is like a jade tree reflected in blue water, or a bright moon rising over the eastern hills. “Pei Shuyan, as long as you obediently follow my arrangements in this life, I can guarantee you a lifetime of wealth and honor.” He smiled like a spring breeze, speaking with easy elegance, as though bestowing a favor. “Brother Feng, do you want to claim the land of Chu openly and rightfully? Then become my consort.” Pei Shuyan's face was full of innocence as she whispered sweetly. Mingfeng fled in disarray. Prince Chen Luo of Beichen was graceful and poised, his sleeves fluttering. His eyes, like autumn waters, were always warm yet unfathomably deep. “Shuyan, you can only ever be my woman.” “You can't have both the realm and the woman you love, and the two can never coexist.” Shuyan's lovely brows lifted, but a trace of coolness remained in her eyes. Prince Shao Qianxun of Dongshao was already showing his brilliance at a young age. When he stood still, he gave people the strange impression of a sharp sword hidden in its scabbard. One night, Shuyan stormed into Shao Qianxun's bedchamber and flung back the covers. “Haha, now I've seen everything... Ah, Brother Shao, why aren't you wearing anything?” Shao Qianxun's eyes shone like stars, his gaze hazy as he spread his arms. “Yan'er, Brother Shao has been waiting for you for so long.” Prince Xiao Qingye of Nanxiao had a peerlessly bewitching face and alluring, peach-blossom eyes that rippled with charm. He was a notorious playboy, yet when he met Pei Shuyan's clear, watery eyes, dark and unfathomable beneath their brightness, he lost his heart. Prince Qiu Xu of Xichou was cold and stern in appearance, and his iron spear was renowned throughout the land. “Shuyan, I never knew it was possible to keep loving someone in your heart forever.” “Stubbornness of the heart is a tomb.” Shuyan was radiant and beautiful, her eyes deep as the sea. Qiu Xu smiled faintly. What kind of letting go could bring freedom? Fengtian spent three hours making this video.
