"Let us meet again in hell." Before she became the infamous seductress. Before he was the most hated tyrant. Before it all fell apart...

Born a curse, she was cast away from the royal family. But when the kingdom needed an alliance, she was the one called upon to marry.

As the second son, he had no right to become heir. Yet in the face of war and politics, he was always the first commanded to fight for the country.

"Whoever is wedded to the princess is destined to become emperor." Somehow, fate brought them together, and the course of the empire thus changed forever.

She became known as the most shameful seductress, purposefully tempting six emperors in a wild bid to maintain her lavish lifestyle. She once dreamt of becoming the century's best medic; yet after a lifetime in the palace, she couldn't save her own children from slaughter.

He turned into the worst tyrant in Chinese history, knowingly sending millions to their graves in a blind attempt to pursue his frivolous dreams. He initially wanted to live a simple life; but under the pressure of power, he instead found himself using all those he loved as mere pawns.

She thought she was fighting against destiny, but it turned out to be the ones she most trusted. 

He believed he was the one pulling on the strings, but in reality, he was unknowingly playing his own part in the script. 

They were unwilling puppets, each trying to break free from the invisible strings of fate. Only when the stage finally fell, it was to chaos. At the end of it all, she no longer knew if her tears were for him or the irony of it all.
