(Sweet romance + political intrigue + palace and household chaos + a fiercely audacious couple with outrageous schemes)
On the day of her wedding, Liu Muqing was robbed of her virtue. Her husband despised her, and she suffered one humiliation after another in the prince's household.
Determined to fight back, she resolutely turned to the very culprit who had taken her innocence and ruined her marriage.
He was a ruthless, powerful man who commanded awe throughout the land.
And he was also her adoptive father, so he ought to stand up for her.
Liu Muqing happily clung to his coattails and won his indulgent affection, then boldly began her triumphant reign across the capital.
She stabbed a secondary consort at a palace banquet, openly arranged a matchmaking meeting aboard a pleasure boat, tore into her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, crippled the hands of the richest heiress in the land, crossed blades with five young ladies, plotted the downfall of the emperor's maternal uncle, and stood up to the Son of Heaven himself...
With him backing her, she truly proved unbeatable across the capital.
The only price was that night after night, he would pull her into his arms and have his way with her...
