Synopsis:

When Jiang Hanyuan was thirteen years old, she first met the man with the courtesy name Jinmei in her father’s military camp. At that time, the young Lord Anle was representing the emperor, pacifying the frontier and rewarding the troops. Under the cold gleam of silver hooks, he smiled, drinking to the last drop; wearing a bow and robe, riding his white horse, he startled the frosty dawn of the yellow sand beyond the Great Wall. Many years passed, so many that Jiang Hanyuan had forgotten that late autumn. One day, she was told that he had asked for her hand in marriage, intending to make her his wife. By then, he had become the regent in the capital, seated high in the imperial court, with power that swayed the nation. She was willing to be his vanguard, to help him flatten mountains and fill seas, to expand his territory—she would die for him without regret. However, apart from herself, no one in this world would ever know that on that crisp autumn morning in the frontier, when the galloping horses, the bowstrings, and the startled swan-like sounds echoed in the air, there had once been a streak of brightness in her youthful, desolate dreams. No one would know. In this lifetime, there would be no such thing again.
