[Two formidable leads joining forces × political intrigue and mind games × epic sea voyage × redemption, sweet romance, and heartbreaking love]
[Transmigrated woman × loyal sea captain]
Before she transmigrated, Qi Yu was an ordinary relic restorer.
After transmigrating, she not only met Yu Qingjing, a loyal minister whom the history books say never married, but also became his fiancée.
Before she transmigrated, she had been restoring an artifact that belonged to him.
A necklace made her a spy in his camp, and Qi Yu had to lie to stay alive.
After her lies were exposed, she slit the barbarian leader’s throat under Yu Qingjing’s sword and proposed a way to take the capital without bloodshed. After that, Yu Qingjing looked at her differently.
He asked, “Who are you, really? Where did you come from?”
Qi Yu replied, “I just want to go home.”
Yu Qingjing fell silent, then took her aboard a mighty ship bound for distant shores. “Then come with me to the ends of the earth, and we’ll find your way home.”
She had planned to use his influence to stay alive until she found a way back to the modern world. But she never expected him to make every move with such care, having already given her his heart.
Yet the two who truly cherished each other were pushed aside at court and humiliated within the imperial palace.
Unable to bear it any longer, Qi Yu acted with the foresight of one who knew what was to come. To avoid being swept up in political schemes, to protect the people, and to stay with Yu Qingjing forever, she intervened in history and stirred the seemingly unshakable imperial power.
Only later did Qi Yu understand that her transmigration was no accident. It was a promise he had made to her six hundred years ago.
