In her past life, a blood-soaked tragedy occurred—the founding empress met a tragic death. In this life, she returns with a heart full of resentment, but the truth is shrouded in layers of fog, spiraling in circles, never revealing its full form. After being reborn, whose neck will she gently lay her sword of vengeance upon?

Is it the reigning emperor, violent and lost in love? The foreign prince, calm and loyal to death? The alluring and scheming outsider king? The elegant and exceptionally intelligent imperial brother? Or the dashing and ambitious martial hero?

Who is her enemy? Who is her ally? Who buried her with a cruel killing blow, and who saved her in the face of death’s gale? Who, in the end, watches coldly, witnessing her proud, mocking smile, as she lightly flicks her fingers high above in the sky, controlling the turmoil in the palace and the chessboard of the world?

A tale about love and hate, life and death, the world and the human heart, calm on the surface but intense to the core. It’s a long journey to be savored between the lips and teeth, full of ambiguity and depth, just like this cold night—where the palace lamps are still burning, the wind sweeps the jade curtains, and the golden hooks chime. Smoke curls from the purple-gold lily cauldron, a hint of incense in the air.

And beneath the ashes, a dark red ember faintly glows, waiting silently, ready to ignite at the right moment.

The long wind rises, the phoenix dances—who will reign over the world?
