When a Cold-Faced Imperial Guard Meets an Iron-Blooded Empress

Shen Lu, a former Embroidered Uniform Guard captain, crosses through time with the Myriad Worlds Arsenal System. During a rainy-night assassination attempt by fanatical killers, he saves the young empress Ji Yueyao in spectacular fashion with a rapid-fire musket, becoming her personal guard. At the time, powerful ministers surround the court, and Ji Yueyao must tread carefully at every turn. With weapons and tactics far beyond their era, Shen Lu purges the palace's hidden spies, exposes the masterminds behind the rebellion, and helps her secure her rule. As suspicion gives way to trust, they learn to watch each other's backs, and their bond deepens through one life-or-death ordeal after another. During a coup in the imperial city, he takes out the enemy commander with a sniper rifle and turns the tide with a rocket launcher. Defending the northern frontier, he leads the Divine Machine Battalion to crush the barbarians and uses orbital weapons to cow the surrounding lands, clearing the way to peace for her with guns and cannons. One by one, the powerful ministers who fear him are swept aside. His actions bring peace to a land ravaged by war, and the young empress, finally letting down her guard, gives him her heart and grants him a unique place at her side, defying convention. When a cold-faced Embroidered Uniform Guard meets an iron-willed empress, he uses the overwhelming might of modern weaponry to outclass political schemes, while boundless romantic devotion brings warmth to their days. Together, they build an unprecedented age of prosperity.
