Prosperous Age

An emperor is the supreme ruler; Hua is a beauty capable of toppling a kingdom. Di Hua is the princess of Jiuzhou. The first time they meet, she is the princess of Jiuzhou, a princess of a fallen kingdom, and he is the enemy nation's state preceptor. Both stand atop the altar, looking down upon all living things. They are the most noble, and also the most pitiful. The second time they meet, she is a princess living in his residence, while he remains the lofty state preceptor. He teaches her how to conduct herself and understand the ways of the world. … He personally sends her to another country, and personally shatters the love in her heart. With music and harmony, all should be well. But his heart belongs to the realm and its empire, and he never speaks of love, leaving only turmoil in the depths of her heart. How many lovesick men and resentful women are there in this world? She is left alone to endure the long years ahead. She asks, “Did you ever leave yourself a way out?” But only the cold wind answers. “This golden age is just as you wished.” She gazes at the peaceful, prosperous world he won with his entire life and lets out a soft sigh.
