The notorious mad princess has killed more than a dozen handsome confidants. If anything displeases her, death is the only outcome.
There is only one exception: Ji Kong, the hostage sent by the Great Song.
On their wedding night, flames blazed through the prince's manor. Everyone assumed Ji Kong had crossed the princess just like the others and was surely doomed this time.
No one imagined that Ji Kong had set the fire himself.
“Ah Ji, what are you trying to accomplish?”
“All Ah Ji has ever wanted is you.”
From then on, the manor had two mad souls: one killed people, and the other set fires.
Things only changed when the new emperor ascended the throne.
As the sole heir, Ji Kong was summoned back to the Song state, where he began quietly plotting something.
What none of them knew was that Ji Kong was no longer the helpless boy he had once been. For her, he was willing to overthrow his homeland.
Only later did she learn that he had never left himself a way out.
