The Nation’s Third Young Master

Transmigration + political intrigue + the struggle for the throne + a sweet romance + cold-weapon warfare + human nature

What? The son of a wealthy duke lives frugally and saves every coin just so he can marry?

The fearless son of a duke can barely get a word out in front of a princess?

The commander-in-chief of all the armies under heaven is actually caught up in the game?

At court, he is the sharpest blade in the crown prince’s hand. Amid the bloody struggle for the throne among five princes, he wages a life-or-death battle against powerful, deeply entrenched clans.

In love, he and Princess Yongning go from falling for each other at a single glance during a palace banquet to spending their white-haired years together beneath a crabapple tree.

On the battlefield, he grows from a callow youth into the commander-in-chief of all the armies under heaven, building a Great Wall on the frontier with his own flesh and blood.

But what will become of this path, where loyalty and deep affection go hand in hand, when a noblewoman whose love is unrequited becomes the leader of an evil cult, and the struggle for the throne reaches a deadlock? How will the boy who once knocked over his wine while stealing a glance at the princess find his way through?

A peerless defender of the realm, he is more than a man of the court. The name Third Young Master will become a legend for the ages.
