[Career-focused early on + woman disguised as a man + one-on-one romance + a little angst]
[Ruthless, fiercely protective female chancellor × unhinged, jealous royal prince]
After the Yun Kingdom fell, everyone assumed the former dynasty’s chancellor, the Su family, would go down with it. Then one day at court, the unruly fourth young master of the Su family arrived alongside the former crown prince of Xiduo, the virtuous Prince Xian.
A few brief words were enough to decide who lived and who died.
Only then did people realize that the Su family’s rise was just beginning...
That year, in the Chaowen courtyard, he sat in his wheelchair and looked up at her with a smile. “Ajiu, what do you want?”
The decisive and ruthless Fourth Young Master Su hesitated for a moment, then met his gaze and answered firmly, “The world under the Su family’s rule.”
“Fine.”
All the lands beneath heaven were worth less than the beauty of your eyes. The world is yours for the taking. Whatever you want, I’ll help you get it.
(P.S. The leads are genuinely ruthless. Do not read if you’re looking for saintly characters!)
