Empress Xie

In the first year of entering the palace, she was just a Lady of Talents. In the fifth year of entering the palace, she became a Handsome Fairness. In the tenth year of entering the palace, she aspired to become the Empress, since it was the only way she could hold onto everything dear to her, never to be taken away. She could protect herself, her children, and most importantly, be with him. This was a path with no retreat; stepping back would be an irreversible calamity. The bright yellow silk umbrella advanced, and the Emperor's procession slowly entered the city gate. The yellow silk umbrella, the sun-and-moon fan, the purple banner... At that moment, the sunlight dazzled the eyes. Empress Xie's phoenix carriage moved forward along the imperial road, meeting him halfway.
