Synopsis of The Bronze Promise:
[Third Young Lady of the Chancellor’s Residence VS Marquis of the Lin Residence]
In an ancient dynasty, Jiang Xiaoyu, the third young lady of the Chancellor’s Residence, was lively and cheerful, yet also cool-headed, composed, and clear-minded. Her two older sisters were no better: the eldest seemed dignified but was two-faced, while the second was downright vicious and often schemed against Jiang Xiaoyu in secret.
Lin Feng, the Marquis of the Lin Residence, was aloof and ascetic, decisive in dealing death, and someone to be feared. They met by chance at a palace banquet. Jiang Xiaoyu studied Lin Feng curiously and said with a chuckle, “You look quite unfamiliar, sir.” Lin Feng raised his eyes slightly, his voice cool. “Lin Feng of the Lin Residence.” Their brief exchange seemed to plant a seed in both their hearts.
After that, they kept running into each other in all sorts of places. Whenever her sisters gave her a hard time, Jiang Xiaoyu handled it calmly. Lin Feng, meanwhile, watched over her in secret and gradually found himself drawn to her unique charm. One autumn afternoon, Lin Feng said to Jiang Xiaoyu, “From now on, I’ll keep you safe.” A flicker of surprise crossed Jiang Xiaoyu’s eyes before she broke into a radiant smile. “All right. It’s a promise.” In an age filled with political intrigue and strife, their love was like a ray of autumn sunshine, warming them both and bringing a little hope to a turbulent world.
