Feared for My Merits, Driven Away: I Back the King and Secure the Realm

Wei Liaozi rescues an eight-year-old girl from the ruins of war and learns that she is a princess of a fallen kingdom.

He travels among the various states, recalls his old comrades, and helps her restore her kingdom, then supports her as she becomes empress!

But during the war to reclaim the throne, an enemy arrow shatters his qi sea, leaving him a cripple.

Even so, he helps her stabilize the court, silently watching over her from behind.

Unfortunately, the empress believes that with his qi sea shattered, he can no longer help her. She also doesn’t want the world to learn about her shameful past.

After leaving the empress, he begins forging alliances and maneuvering between the ten kingdoms, activating hidden pieces, finding the King of Men, and supporting him as he unifies the Central Plains.
