[Woman Disguised as a Man] [Not Reborn or Transmigrated] [Political Intrigue] [Light Ensemble Cast] [Alternate World]
Three years ago, Nan Zhao concealed her identity and left home to escape disaster. She came to a county in the southeast and became a constable, where she met Yu Xiao, another constable who had secrets of his own.
As the two worked together to solve cases, Nan Zhao uncovered the injustice done to her father. She left without a word and returned to Yongdu to investigate the truth.
In her life, Nan Zhao considered only two men her true friends.
One nearly became her husband, but personally destroyed her family.
The other followed the prison cart transporting her father and watched him die.
A life-saving debt is greater than heaven, but it is always hard to have everything. Ahead, whose path leads to life, and whose to death?
The dynasty has changed, and the realm has been pacified. Nan Zhao, who holds great power, is cornered by the young emperor. “A-Zhao, I need an empress.”
Nan Zhao has long since resolved never to marry in this life. With nowhere left to retreat, she draws the treasured blade that killed two emperors and says fiercely, “Aren't you afraid this emperor-slaying blade will take your life at any moment?”
He leans forward, pressing his neck against the blade, and smiles faintly. “Thank you, my lady, for granting my wish.”
