Flowers bloom and fall, filling the sky; love comes and goes, all according to fate. Geese depart and return, never truly parting; tides rise and ebb, never sleeping. Deep in the night, beneath the bright moon, dreams of a lovely face; no fortune can keep a beauty by your side. If life’s joys and sorrows are only a matter of length, why is it so hard to sever the longing in one’s heart?
One is the cherished eldest daughter of Murong Manor, surrounded by adoring admirers. The other is an ugly woman with a plain face from a brothel. One is hopelessly devoted to the fiancé who broke off their engagement; the other is carried in a grand bridal sedan into the royal palace. These sisters have never met, yet their loves take different paths to the same fate. A lover’s heart can be hard as iron, a lord’s heart deep as the sea. All one can do is sigh, “I beg you to pity me.” But what can she do to win his affection? See how these twin sisters act out a tale of passionate, misplaced love!
