World Convergence

Dynasties rise and dynasties fall, like the tide washing the sand.

On one side, he suffers from intrigue and hides his great ambition; on the other, the mysterious girl hides her anger behind her gentle smile.

Who toppled the country, establishing their dynasty?

Who built the Yellow Springs and set it over Imperial Power, inciting strife and conquering the earth?

Who exchanged gazes at the Nine Palaces to the sound of halberd and blood, watching the falling flowers of Acacia?

Who drank the poisoned wine and smiled, trading it for a cinnabar dot to the chest?

Tribulation and strife has destroyed past prosperity; he would not retreat, and she has not finished singing.

.... Is she disturbing the earth world, or is the world disturbing her?

This is a seemingly simple story about an era of recovering the old country and the fight for the throne, and the men and women on both sides.

To conquer or resist;
To push away or fight for chance.
To provoke or to still;
To love, or to refuse love.

In truth, rescuing the hostages was very simple, but she was not able to make the move.

The vague sound of the Crown Prince's harsh laughter could be heard from the roof of the building, his voice sharp as a blade. "Where is Father Emperor? Father Emperor did not come to see me? How heartless to his own son? Refusing to see me…"

With a dull thud, a figure fell from the pagoda roof and crunched against the ground, brain matter spilling every which way. All the onlookers turned in shock, and only after a long examination determined that the corpse was not the Shao Ning Princess, but an Imperial servant girl.

The Crown Prince's laughter grew more and more ghastly. "Father Emperor will not come? Then every quarter of an hour I will toss another person; this servant girl was from Shao Ning's palace, and the next one… the one following that … perhaps it will be his beloved little daughter. If he does not come, I will send Shao Ning's ghost to see him!"
