I was left alone

In the shadowy corridors of Fenxing Palace, Shenmiao, the last surviving child of the late Empress Chu, grapples with the profound loneliness left in the wake of her family's tragic demise. With her mother dead, her eldest brother lost to fate, and her newborn sibling snatched away shortly after birth, she faces a cold and unfeeling court that offers no solace. Abandoned by her father, the emperor, to navigate a treacherous political landscape, Shenmiao is determined to reclaim her power.

As the New Year approaches, the pressure mounts. A looming arranged marriage threatens to strip her of her freedom, but Shenmiao is resolute. She devises a plan to forge an alliance with her uncle, Prince Yu, who carries his scars from the past. Through shared secrets and strategic games of Go, Shenmiao seeks to plant the seeds of trust, hoping to awaken the protective instincts of the prince and secure her place within the palace.

But as she delves deeper into the game of survival, secrets unravel and crises loom. Shenmiao discovers that Prince Yu harbors a dark secret of his own-a past fraught with violence that could jeopardize everything she's worked for. As tensions rise, Shenmiao must navigate the dangerous waters of court politics, betrayal, and the quest for revenge against those who wronged her family.

In a world where loyalty is scarce and alliances are forged in blood, Shenmiao is determined to rise from the ashes of her past. "I Was Left Alone" is a tale of resilience, the search for belonging, and the unyielding spirit of a woman fighting to reclaim her destiny against all odds.
