Su Wantang, Concubine Chen of the Great Ning Dynasty, fell off a cliff three years ago to save Emperor Gu Chengyu from an assassin. The whole court thought she was dead, but Gu Chengyu refused to take a new empress—even her osmanthus hairpin was still in the dressing box. Three years later, Su Wantang returned as “A Wan”, a folk doctor, and was about to touch her old palace when she saw Gu Chengyu holding a new lady in his arms. She turned to run, but Gu Chengyu grabbed her wrist, tracing the jade bracelet (his betrothal gift) on her arm: “Wantang, your medicine still has your unique mint scent—did you think I wouldn’t recognize it?” It turned out Gu Chengyu had known she was back all along; those ladies were spies from the Empress Dowager, and his coldness was to protect her from court conflicts. When Su Wantang pushed open the palace door, the room was filled with jasmine (her favorite flower). Gu Chengyu hugged her from behind: “Three years ago, when you jumped, I said I’d wait. Now, where do you think you’re going?”
