The Emperor’s Only Heir Lives in the Cold Palace

She was once the most revered princess of the Great Yu Kingdom, cherished by all. But when her family fell from power, her cold-blooded father had her maternal grandfather's entire clan slaughtered, and her mother died by suicide, consumed by grief.

From then on, her ruthless father cast her into the Cold Palace, where she was left to fend for herself alongside the disgraced consorts.

But she was born to be the most exalted person in the world. How could the little Great Yu dynasty possibly hold her back?

When she was on the brink of death, the most powerful person in the mortal realm found her. From then on, she became the apple of the eye of the greatest sect in the mortal realm.

Before long, everyone knew that the most gifted girl in the Tengyuan Kingdom was the young sect master of the Holy Spirit Sect, blessed with extraordinary talent and adored by its sect master.

Yet this genius girl causes trouble every day. She pulls up the third elder's spirit herbs, drugs the seventh elder, and even swindles money from the fifth elder. Everyone in the Holy Spirit Sect loves her and loathes her in equal measure.

After twelve years of biding her time, she engineers a civil war that wipes out the Great Yu royal family until only her so-called father remains. Her addled father collapses to the ground and cries, “The Chu family has no heirs left! Great Yu is finished!”

But the old eunuch beside him promptly replies, “Your Majesty, the Chu bloodline isn't extinct. You still have a princess in the Cold Palace!”
