Young general Ling Xiao is the dynasty's most dazzling young prince, but on the night of his victorious return, he falls into the eyes of a prostitute. Su Qianyue is the most beautiful slut in the capital, and also a patch of mud anyone can trample. Ling Xiao rescues her from the gutter and cherishes her like a treasure, never realizing that this is the beginning of a lifetime of tribulation. Su Qianyue openly gives the young prince one pair of cuckold's horns after another, yet he still loves her to the point of obsession!
Behind the high walls of the prince's manor, the thunderous wrath of his father and mother is only an open threat. More dangerous is Qing Ying, a male favorite as cool as the moon, whose beauty makes even women jealous and whose male identity is known to no one. When the warm red curtains of a prostitute's bed meet the cold, subtle allure of a male beauty, a struggle over lust and power begins to rage within the manor.
Qianyue refuses to change her ways, pleasing others while leaving the whole manor awash in cuckold's horns. Qing Ying smiles sweetly, vying for favor while laying a deadly trap. Ling Xiao commands armies capable of resisting a million soldiers, yet he is trapped in a war involving only three people... As his sincerity is trampled again and again, the young prince's devotion will eventually become the coldest blade of all.
