She really lives a perfect life. Shining crown and beautifully embroidered gown. Tingling hairpins on her head doesn't make her happy. Is it too greedy to ask for more?

They say birds sang and flowers bloomed despite being in the winter, and all the animals in the world bowed down as he took his first breath. He is known as the legendary emperor. The one who leads the kingdom through battles and conflicts, floods and droughts. The one who has kept his kingdom fed and happy despite a war waging outside their city walls.

The man is a mystery and his complex empire is a puzzle. . . Who am I? I am the third child of the closest advisor to the emperor. Though I may seem to be the Illegitimate daughter who was sent to the countryside as a child, I am my father's favorite.

Into his palace comes a new servant, a young man from a distant province whose mannerisms and presence eerily echo the emperor's lost love. As the emperor grapples with this striking resemblance, he begins to wonder if perhaps the servant could be the reincarnation of his former lover.

This is a work of fiction, so don't get upset if I get things wrong, My knowledge in Chinese customs isn't that wide. However the writing belongs to me, it's an original story]
