The Cool Beauty Is the Regent Prince's Most Cherished Treasure

[Two male leads + court intrigue + sweet younger-man romance + fictional ancient setting + brothers turning against each other + multiple couples + substitute romance (secondary couple)]

Early on: [A straightforward, single-minded, lovesick prince who takes the lead × a cool, aloof courtesan who keeps everyone at arm’s length]

Later: [A regent prince who turns the tables and holds power × a steady, gentle princess consort who cares for the realm and puts the greater good first]

A few things to know: 1. Two male leads! Two male leads! Two male leads! 2. This is a completely fictional setting. Please don’t apply real history to it. 3. The characters bide their time early on, then turn the tables later. Expect both sweetness and angst.

That’s all. If any of this isn’t for you, please stop reading. Thank you.
