Rising Phoenix

Dynasties rise and dynasties fall, like the tide washing the sand. On one side, he suffers from intrigue and hides his great ambition; on the other, the mysterious girl hides her anger behind her gentle smile. Who toppled the country, establishing their dynasty? Who built the Yellow Springs and set it over Imperial Power, inciting strife and conquering the earth? Who exchanged gazes at the Nine Palaces to the sound of halberd and blood, watching the falling flowers of Acacia? Who drank the poisoned wine and smiled, trading it for a cinnabar dot to the chest? Tribulation and strife has destroyed past prosperity; he would not retreat, and she has not finished singing. .... Is she disturbing the earth world, or is the world disturbing her? This is a seemingly simple story about an era of recovering the old country and the fight for the throne, and the men and women on both sides. To conquer or resist; To push away or fight for chance. To provoke or to still; To love, or to refuse love.

Translator: Aristophaneso

There were still people who saw a deeper meaning to this decision. The Crown Prince only had mediocre achievements, and the rest of the princes were too powerful. Many ministers in the Imperial Court had chosen sides, and powerful men were constantly talking of passing over the eldest in favor of the capable. Some days ago, the power of the Crown Prince's seal had been frozen, and the other princes had eagerly taken action. Princes fighting for dominance never heralded good for a dynasty, but the Emperor had watched without comment. Today, with the Qing Ming Academy's outstanding display of merit and the achievement of the Crown Prince, the old man had finally made his move, and with this one action, sent forth a warning to all the princes and their allies - the Crown Prince was still favored in the court, cease your petty plans!
