The Princess’s Secret Is Out, and Everyone Has Turned Dark

Clear-eyed princess × scheming heir who later becomes obsessively possessive and dangerously unhinged

Rong Xile was the legitimate eldest princess of Nanyue. Then, in a single night, her mother died and her father confined her to the palace for three years.

Jun Zhiheng, son of the founding general, the Marquis of Jing’an, should have grown into a spirited young general. Instead, he was suddenly poisoned. When he woke, he saw the horrifying sight of his father hanged and his mother unconscious in bed.

She swore she would uncover the cause of her mother’s death!

He swore he would avenge his father!

The two who had known each other as children met again, both now far more clear-eyed. As the truth was slowly revealed, a long-planned game began to unfold, and feelings grew amid their probing and testing.

Jun Zhiheng looked at Rong Xile. “If I told you that everything I’ve done was for you, because I want you to live the life you desire, would you believe me?”

“Jun Zhiheng, you don’t need to do anything for me. Love has never been my first choice. If the time comes when I have to choose, I can give up everything.”

Her words were cold, but when he truly faced danger, she was the first to stand in front of him.

“I am Nanyue’s legitimate eldest princess. Whoever dares hurt him will pay with their life!”

When love became a poison that ate away at his bones, all reason turned to ash. The moment he saw her put on a wedding dress for another man, he held his bloodstained sword, his eyes red with fury.

When they met again, he tore off her veil and kissed her with domineering force. “Le’er, you can only be my wife.”

[A pure historical romance. Both leads are clear-headed and pursue each other. The heroine is pure in body and heart, and the hero has multiple identities. He becomes dangerously obsessed for love later on. Absolutely gripping, with no misunderstandings or contrived melodrama.]
