[This book has been published under the title Who Owns the Realm: A World Under Heaven]
That night, she shed the innocence of a young girl and became a sorrowful ripple in the depths of the Cold Palace...
That day, she knelt at his feet and pleaded desperately. She wanted nothing at all, only to leave the palace and live an ordinary life...
Several handsome and elegant princes of the royal family, and one humble palace maid with a heart as still as water...
When they meet her, is it a fated encounter as beautiful as golden wind and jade dew, or a mournful song of a realm torn by turmoil...?
