Su Wan had been with Crown Prince Xiao Jingheng for ten years, from childhood to adolescence, giving him her whole heart and believing she'd eventually wear the phoenix coronet. But on the day Xiao Jingheng was named heir, the red silk under the palace walls led to the Prime Minister's daughter's palace—he was to marry someone else as crown princess. She broke into the East Palace at midnight, crying, but Xiao Jingheng only said, "It's for the greater good." Her jade hairpin shattered on the ground. The next day, she volunteered to marry the King of Xirong for peace. Three years later, Xiao Jingheng passed through Xirong after quelling a rebellion. In the market, he saw her: in Xirong queen's robes embroidered with silver thread, holding a delicate child, with the Xirong King gently wiping cake crumbs from her mouth. He reached out to touch her sleeve but was stopped by guards—the girl who once chased him calling "Brother Heng" had long become someone he could never reach again.
