At his side, she rules the realm; together, they grow old, their love enduring.
He is Yan Yiran, heaven’s chosen ruler, crowned emperor and master of a vast empire and unmatched glory from the day he was born.
He is Beitang Moran, the scheming prince who was always at odds with her. What will she choose in the end?
She is Lan Jingxue, heir to the Lan family in the 21st century. After an accident transmigrates her to another world, she arrives just as he is turning the realm upside down, and soon becomes embroiled in the perilous struggle for imperial power. In the treacherous palace, where poison lurks at every turn, and in the brothel, where she endures humiliation, she repeatedly teeters on the brink of death. She also forms an inextricable bond with Beitang Moran. As hardship after hardship descends upon her, she cannot help but wonder what sins she committed in her past life to deserve such trials in this strange world.
When he takes her hand, his eyes holding half the empire and all the love in his heart, he asks gravely, “Will you be my empress?” She looks at him and makes a vow she will never regret: “If you win, I’ll stand beside you as you rule the realm. If you lose, I’ll help you rise again. If you live, I’ll roam the world with you. If you die, I’ll keep watch over you until my hair turns white.”
Many years later, on a street in Yuncheng, she has forgotten her past. Gazing at the handsome man smiling before her, she tilts her head in confusion. “Handsome big brother, who are you?”
The man slowly bends down and gently brushes her hair with his fingertips. His eyes brim with undying devotion and an obsession that has endured across time. He promises softly, “I’m your future husband. When you grow up, I’ll marry you.”
Her words are innocent, his promise profound. This love, tangled with devotion and resentment, has crossed time and reincarnation. No one knows what fate-filled legend the two of them will write in the chapters yet to come.
