118 ChGuangxia: Ripples of Clouds
廣夏：雲湧篇
Synopsis: A story about the youth of Empress Changsun and Li Shimin (main story complete).
A vibrant and cheerful young girl, living under the roof of others, and a young man from an influential family but with the ambition to rule the world, engage in an extreme tug-of-war amidst a chaotic era.
In the fifth year of the Daye era, Changsun Qingjing entered the beginning of the story with a difficult hand.
A father who passed away,
A cunning half-brother,
A mother framed and set up,
A brother powerless to support the family,
A foster father implicated and demoted, exiled to a remote area.
— Fate maliciously beat her down, forcing her to bow her head.
Just as she decided to accompany her foster father to the Lingnan exile, Li Shimin, the son of the Duke of Tang, used their childhood verbal engagement to halt her desperate escape plan.
Was this fate's malicious test once more?
Or was it a sliver of hope in a desperate situation?
Was the young man who actively offered help a true idealist?
Or did he begin a gamble against fate with this mismatched marriage?
Why not take a gamble!
They faced the grudging death of her mother side by side.
They witnessed the prophecy "When the sheep graze" together.
They united to evade the emperor's groundless suspicion.
They worked together in Beimang to understand the people's suffering.
Just as Changsun Qingjing, full of anticipation, boarded the ferry to Hedong with Li Shimin, the flood tide at Pujin Ferry dragged their boat into the rapids…
Was this fate's conspiracy, or heaven's trial?
