Thirty-Six Palaces Are All Served with Brooms

On the day when Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty met his queen for the first time, snow fell all over Bianjing. He held her hand and walked through the thirty-six palace steps, and said softly: "In this life, I don't seek immortality or immortality, I just want to grow old together with you." Many years later, her thirty-six sons and five daughters have all grown up safely. But when Zhenzong found the first white hair on her temples, he burst into tears. The eldest son, who was already the crown prince, stepped forward and said in confusion: "Father, the queen is just a white hair." Zhenzong stared at his married wife for a long time and sighed to the prince: "You don't know, every moment in my life with her is like a treasure."
