In the spring of the seventeenth year of Tianzai, to bring good fortune to the gravely ill Crown Princess, the third young lady of the Su family married into the Crown Prince's household as his concubine.
There was no Yangzhou in Jiangnan. The greatest beauty in the land was in the capital, where they say even the paving stones were made of gold, and there she began a life full of conflict.
With a soul from the modern era, Su Rao fought locust plagues, established a postal service, and opened up maritime trade and commerce. Her Crown Prince was always gentle and warm, giving her a safe haven.
She had always thought the Crown Prince treated her like a child. Only after the Crown Princess divorced him did she realize that the look in Xie Huaijun's eyes held a desire he had kept deeply hidden.
"Your Highness, this is not what I seek. So why should I envy her?"
"Yes, I do not want to be empress. I want to take her ashes and see the mountains and rivers of the Great Sheng."
"Your Majesty, in all her life, she never saw the world beyond the capital."
Years later, the Crown Prince, now emperor, abolished the harem and waited a long time for someone.
