Shen Lümian is the most invisible Cairen in the Great Liang harem. In two years at the palace, her daily routine boils down to three things: eating, sleeping, and dodging the emperor. She's seen him a total of five times and exchanged no more than ten sentences.
The day the emperor dies, she's kneeling at the back of the crowd, so drowsy she nearly pitches forward. Then the eunuch reads the imperial edict—
"All harem consorts shall be buried alive with the emperor."
Shen Lümian: ...Does this even make sense??
