Deng Regrets

I used to think that giving her the back seat was the greatest honor I could give her, but later I realized that what she wanted was never the back seat, but my heart - and I gave my heart to the power. When I looked back, she no longer wanted it. On the night of Yuan Dynasty in the third year of Zhaoping, Shen Zhaoning, the most talented woman in the capital, was dressed in disguise to enjoy the lanterns and met the seventh prince Xiao Yan in front of the lantern riddle stall. A glazed lamp with two golden and red carps, it was love at first sight in the shadow of the lamp. He smiled warmly, and she lowered her eyes shyly - but she didn't know that this encounter was the beginning of a careful calculation. Xiao Yansheng's mother was born in Huanyi Bureau, and she was treated with cold eyes since she was a child. She looks as gentle as jade, but in reality she has deep ambitions. He asked to marry Shen Zhaoning in order to win over the civil servants of the Shen family behind her. On the eve of their wedding, she overheard him having a secret conversation with his staff, only to realize that she was just a pawn on his way to seize the throne. The imperial edict has been issued and there is no way to retreat. She married into the Seventh Prince's Mansion with tears in her eyes. After marriage, he deliberately treated her with gentleness, but she repeatedly broke into his attempts to use the Shen family to pave the way for her. Finally, she became disheartened and drew a clear line. Xiao Yan tasted the pain of loss for the first time, but the battle to seize the direct line has reached a fever pitch - King Jin and Queen Gu launched a palace coup, and Xiao Yan ascended to the throne in blood and fire. In order to stabilize the dynasty, he deposed his wife on the grounds of being "childless" and made General Zhao's daughter his queen instead. Shen Zhaoning refused to argue, so he asked himself to become a monk and went to Baoen Temple to practice. In the ancient Buddha room of Qingdeng, she thought that this life was the end; but in the palace city, he found that after losing her, the world was nothing but an empty city. He put down his imperial figure and began to wait for a long time - planting plum blossoms outside the temple gate, waiting by the stream, and collecting her dead branches in the wind and snow for seven years. Until the Queen Mother entrusted her with the white jade pendant carved with lotus flowers on her deathbed.
