Chu Yigu [top] × Shen Qinggu [bottom]
Shen Qinggu suddenly appeared as a close aide to the emperor five years ago. In just a few years, he rose to the position of Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and earned the emperor's utmost trust. To counter his influence, the Chu faction was driven to desperation and recalled the general, Chu Yigu.
But no one expected Chu Yigu to start working hand in glove with Shen Qinggu, sizing up his background. Yet it wasn't for the Chu faction's sake. He was doing it so he could… send a betrothal gift??? But ever since the Holy Maiden of Nanjiang arrived, Shen Qinggu has grown increasingly anxious…
“General Chu, are you going to fight your way back to Chaoyang Mountain?”
“What? You think I wouldn't dare?”
“If you're going to storm Chaoyang Mountain, do you have to kill me first?”
“My lady, please don't be angry. I wouldn't dare…”
