Zhou Dynasty, on a vast land, the plague rages like frost, devouring the warmth of life. 0
 
Su Wanrong decides to go to the disaster area, dedicating herself to curing diseases and saving lives. Han Xi, upon hearing this news, firmly insists on accompanying her. After much deliberation, Emperor Han Yu ultimately allows her request, but his heart is filled with worry. 0
 
 
At the break of dawn, with light mist lingering, Su Wanrong and Han Xi embarked on a journey to the disaster area. Along the way, the two experienced countless hardships and faced tests of life and death. In the epidemic area, the painful cries, helpless moans, and fragility of life made this journey full of suffering and despair. 0
 
In a severely affected village, Su Wanrong unhesitatingly devoted herself to treating the injured and sick. Her hands, no longer the ones that used to practice calligraphy in the palace, transformed into compassionate hands that soothed the suffering of life and death. Every treatment, every medication, was filled with determination and compassion. 0
 
 
Han Xi followed Su Wanrong and witnessed all of this. Her inner world was impacted like never before in this disaster. She began to participate in the rescue work, despite her unfamiliarity with the techniques, but every effort she made was precious. 0
 
"Su Wanrong, I never thought I could do anything here," Han Xi said to Su Wanrong after a late-night treatment, her eyes filled with complex emotions. 0
 
 
Su Wanrong looked at the exhausted yet determined Han Xi and felt a sense of relief in her heart: "Xi'er, everyone can shine and radiate heat, even in the darkest moments. Your courage and determination are your light." 0
 
In the face of disaster, the relationship between the two underwent a qualitative leap. Han Xi's horizons were completely opened, and she learned to understand the pain of others, to sympathize and to give. Su Wanrong's influence, like nourishing dew for the soul, gradually strengthened Han Xi's inner self. 0
 
 
Disaster will eventually pass, but the memories of life and death, love and pain experienced in the disaster will be forever engraved in the hearts of Su Wanrong and Han Xi. When they return to the palace, they are no longer just teacher and student, but partners who have weathered the storm and fought side by side. 0
 
Su Wanrong and Han Xi, returning to the palace, carry a different sense of calm and maturity than when they first set out. The test of the epidemic has been like a tempering, establishing their relationship on an even stronger foundation. 0
 
 
At a court meeting, Emperor Han Yu publicly praised Su Wanrong and Han Xi for their performance during the epidemic. Han Xi stood in the court, recalling the days and nights spent with Su Wanrong, feeling indescribable emotions in her heart. 0
 
"Father, Su Wanrong is not only my mentor, but also a talent of Zhou Dynasty," Han Xi said in the court, her voice firm and clear, her eyes revealing deep respect and gratitude towards Su Wanrong. 0
 
 
Su Wanrong stood aside, listening to Han Xi's words, with a hint of comfort and touched in her eyes. At this moment, she felt that all her efforts and sacrifices had received the best reward. 0
 
 
In the deep study room of the palace, the scent of books filled the air, and the moonlight washed through the windows. Su Wanrong and Han Xi sat across from each other, their gazes alternating between the ancient books emitting the fragrance of ink and each other's eyes, sharing their insights and experiences. 0
 
"Su Wanrong, I've always been curious, how do you view the concept of 'governing a country with virtue'?" Han Xi posed a question, her eyes revealing a thirst for knowledge. 0
 
 
Su Wanrong smiled slightly and after a moment of contemplation, replied, " 'Ruling a country with virtue' essentially means making benevolence and wisdom the foundation of governance. If a ruler can hold virtue in their heart, they can treat the people with compassion and guide the country with wisdom." 0
 
Han Xi nodded upon hearing this, her expression showing a profound understanding of Su Wanrong's answer. "So, in practical governance, how should we balance the relationship between virtue and law?" 0
 
 
"This is a very good question," praised Su Wanrong, "Virtue and law should complement each other. Law is the external norm, and virtue is the inner cultivation. Only when the ruler holds virtue in his heart, can the external application of law win the hearts of the people, thus achieving the effect of harmonious governance." 0
 
Such night talks gradually became a regular occurrence in the study, and each conversation was a collision and fusion of ideas, making Han Xi's inner world more colorful. Su Wanrong was not only imparting knowledge but also shaping Han Xi's character and wisdom invisibly. 0
 
 
During their walks in the Imperial Garden, Han Xi would sometimes share her confusion and worries, and Su Wanrong would offer guidance and comfort based on her rich life experience. These exchanges not only helped Han Xi gain a deeper understanding of the world, but also taught her how to be more open-minded and understanding. 0
 
One day, as they strolled through the garden, Han Xi suddenly said, "Su Wanrong, I have always had a question. How can you remain so calm and composed, even in the face of great difficulties and changes?" 0
 
 
Su Wanrong stopped and looked at the blooming peach blossoms in the distance, saying with great seriousness, "Xier, there is too much impermanence in this world. I have experienced separation from life and death, and the shifting of power. All of this has made me understand that life is nothing but a fleeting moment. Only by maintaining inner peace can we truly see the true face of this world." 0
 
Listening to Su Wanrong's words, Han Xi's respect in her eyes deepened even more. She deeply understood Su Wanrong's past. As a former queen and now a wise woman, every choice and letting go she made was a profound embodiment of her deep understanding of life. 0
 
 
Two people strolled slowly in the garden, sometimes silent, sometimes chatting and laughing. Such moments, though ordinary, were filled with profound meaning and mutual understanding. Every flower, every leaf, seemed to witness the deep emotions gradually building between them. 0
 
As they walked, Han Xi spoke softly, "Su Wanrong, during the time I've spent with you, I've learned a lot. Not just in terms of knowledge, but more about understanding life and the world." 0
 
 
Su Wanrong smiled at her and said, "Xi'er, your growth has exceeded my expectations. You are not only a princess, but also a wise person. Your future path will surely be even broader." 0
 
Han Xi's face showed a thoughtful expression as she replied, "Su Wanrong, you are right. I think I have begun to understand how I should walk my own path. Not just as a princess, but as an independent thinker, to explore and understand this world." 0
 
 
Su Wanrong nodded and looked at Han Xi with pride: "Xi, this is exactly the state I hope you can reach. People should surpass their roles and identities to pursue higher wisdom and truth." 0
 
As night fell quietly, the garden was lit with dim lights. In this tranquil night, Su Wanrong and Han Xi sat in the pavilion, continuing their conversation. The moonlight shone like water, illuminating their faces and every insight and contemplation in their hearts. 0
