Heaven and Earth · Panshan: A Scene in the Mortal World
Author:
Empress Niohuru, the mother of Hongli, heeded the imperial astrologer’s divination: to safeguard her son’s imperial throne, she must wed a woman from a prestigious noble family, while the humble station of Pan’er, a commoner, would bring ill fortune. Failing to force the match, Empress Niohuru secretly journeyed to Mount Panshan and decreed that Pan’er should never again set eyes on Hongli, urging her instead to take the vows of a nun. When the Yongzheng Emperor passed away, Hongli was compelled to ascend the throne in haste, missing their promised rendezvous—only to find his mother returning with Pan’er, whose dark hair had been cut in farewell…
As Pan’er’s illusions shattered and her heart burned with despair, the mountains and waters seemed to echo the promise they had made in their childhood.
