[Loyal, feral young general × gentle, refined, steady regent]
Jiang Qiye feels for him, and the more he learns about him, the more his heart aches.
His Huaizhi escaped one prison only to enter an even bigger one. He has never been master of his own fate, never been free.
Everyone says he's defiant and outrageous, that he flouts propriety and is arrogant. So what?
Though his Huaizhi holds a high position, inside he's wounded in a thousand places and utterly exhausted.
He is willing to take up his sword and help him clear every obstacle, so he can welcome the dawn.
