The Western Palace

Dingxi Fan Who mourns the fading fragrance and shadows, the sparse branches, the chill of frost, the drunken flush of rouge? Fresh snow settles on the painted beams and carved halls. Twenty years of realm and rule, year after year deceived by the east wind, leaving only desolation. One is a scheming empress enthroned high above all; the other, the clever and captivating favorite in the king’s heart. They once called each other sisters, but became enemies who fought in secret to the death. One is a dashing prince of Great Wei; the other, a peerlessly beautiful princess of Xiyi. Though they once loved each other, they are now forced to meet without ever being together. In this tangled imperial harem, with usurpations, palace coups, murder, and manipulation, the harem offers only cruelty. How could true affection survive here? For every scheme and struggle in the imperial harem, read “The Western Palace.” Please vote, add it to your favorites, and leave a comment~~~ Many thanks!
