Preface In a world where social boundaries seemed insurmountable, two souls dared to defy destiny. Princess Sang Zhi and her guard Duan Jia Xu's love blossomed, only to be cruelly torn apart. Yet, their hearts remained entwined, beating for each other across lifetimes. __.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__.__ Introduction In the 18th century, Sang Zhi was the princess of the Sang Kingdom. Duan Jia Xu was her guard, hired by her father, King Sang Yan. Sang Zhi's mother, Queen Sang Xu, passed away when Sang Zhi was just five years old. Sang Zhi and Duan Jia Xu fell deeply in love, but their social differences made their relationship impossible. Duan Jia Xu was killed by King Sang Yan, who believed that a princess and a guard could never be together, and that Duan Jia Xu had committed a grave sin by touching the princess. Yet, when two hearts are meant to be together, no one can tear them apart. In their next life, God reunited the two souls, joining their hearts once again.
