Story Overview:
Four years ago, he was the honored Third Prince. But a carefully orchestrated palace conspiracy led to his mother's unjust death. He was stripped of his title and exiled to the northern battlefield, where corpses littered the land.
For four years, he fought to survive amid blood and fire. Clawing his way out of hell, he trampled the royal court beneath his horse's hooves and swept across the sixteen northern provinces, becoming the mighty and feared Northern King, Xiao Han!
He thought he had already suffered the worst this world had to offer.
But he had no idea that in the still-prosperous imperial capital, his beloved consort, Su Yunshang, had sold everything she owned for his sake and endured endless humiliation. In the dead of winter, she scrubbed clothes with hands covered in chilblains, just to stay alive.
He had no idea that he had a daughter he had never met, Xiao Sihan. Only four years old, she trembled in the snow and ice as she tried to encourage herself: “Once I finish washing the clothes, Mother can have her medicine...”
He had no idea that cruel servants whipped them in the street, the powerful abused them at will, and all the kindness they had once been shown had vanished. Mother and daughter were on the brink of death, pushed to the edge of despair!
A bloodstained secret report shattered all his composure and plans.
“This prince returns for one reason only: family matters!”
Wherever the Northern King's banner pointed, three thousand iron hooves trampled the land as they charged straight for the imperial capital!
Anyone who dared harm my wife and daughter, whether a noble family's young master, the ruler of the imperial harem, or even the foolish emperor on his lofty throne...
I, Xiao Han, will use your blood to atone for my wife and daughter's tears!
