Wei Jinyu is a disgraced prince’s consort, but she is also Emperor Yuwen Jinghong’s childhood sweetheart.
While imprisoned by the prince, she endured every kind of torment. Under Yuwen Jinghong’s gentle care, she slowly began to heal.
Yuwen Jinghong once promised he would protect her and keep her safe.
But Wei Jinyu gradually realized she couldn’t hide behind him forever. Even an emperor who ruled the world could find himself helpless and at a loss.
If she didn’t grow stronger, then no matter how powerful someone else was, they couldn’t protect her forever.
Yuwen Jinghong’s repeated attempts to protect Wei Jinyu came at a tremendous cost to him, time and again.
Unable to bear watching him sacrifice himself any longer, Wei Jinyu seized on a misunderstanding to flee with Bai Jingchen, a prince from a neighboring kingdom.
On the run, Wei Jinyu steadily honed her skills and grew stronger, gaining multiple identities and a formidable standing in the martial world.
In the end, she saved Yuwen Jinghong’s life and became a legendary woman for the ages.
