Chapter 17: The Flowers Fall and the People Scatter, Neither Knowing the Other
She is the darling of heaven, he is the wise and tolerant prince.
He often called her "A Jiao", and she also called him "Che Er"
When he was a child, he proudly said "When I grow up, I will build a golden house for Ah Jiao. Let Ah Jiao live inside"
At that time, she was delighted in her heart for several days.
The day she married him was very lively, with red decorations stretching for ten miles. The warm sunshine shone brightly, bringing a gentle warmth like the spring breeze.
After marriage, they were deeply in love and had a wonderful life together.
Later on, he ascended to the throne as he had wished. At the same time, he also bestowed a golden house upon her. At that time, the emperor and empress were deeply in love. Only she knew that some things had already begun to change.
Not many years later, he had a new love, that woman named Wei Zifu. That woman had his child.
Fate always plays tricks on people, and a few months later she became pregnant too. At that time, she was satisfied, but soon after, she had a miscarriage. The pain of watching all that blood was unbearable. She was in so much pain, shouting "Che Er".
But he didn't come. It turned out that day was also a good day for Wei Zifu to give birth.
The next day, he came to see her. She ridiculed him with cold words. He turned and left.
Checking into Changmen was as if it had been destined long ago. Her pride was worn down by him. She had nothing left. Lover, child, pride.
She was as quiet as a madman. It was a winter day, a fire. The palace was burned down, and she was also burned to death. She knew that she had not lost to anyone, but only to his world. A world of his own.
For a long time, she would appear in his dreams. He dreamed of her calling him "Che Er".
Maybe he loved her, but some things will always change.
One morning, spring is gone, beauty fades with age, flowers fall and people depart, neither knowing where the other goes.
