Li Shishi, the capital's most famous courtesan, spent ten years of her earnings from entertaining guests to fund the destitute scholar Zhao Jie's imperial exams—even pawning her mother's cherished jade pendant. Before leaving, Zhao held her and wept, "When I become the top scholar, I'll marry you with an eight-person sedan chair." But when he truly topped the exams and stood before the emperor, he received an imperial edict: marry the princess. On one side was Shishi, who had raised him with her blood and tears; on the other was the imperial power that would kill him for refusal. Zhao's hands trembled as he clutched the edict. Meanwhile, Li Shishi stood by the brothel window, watching the top scholar's parade, her fingernails digging into her palm—she either put on plain clothes to storm the palace, or burned the letter full of vows. Her choice was about to shatter the capital's gentle illusion.
