Moonlight Across the Nine Heavens
Shen Qingci was born the legitimate daughter of a distinguished family. Then, in a single day, her household was destroyed, and all 312 members of the Shen family died in disgrace. She alone escaped by chance, hiding her identity and becoming Shen Wuyue, the lowliest of palace maids. She enters the deadly imperial palace for one purpose: revenge and justice.
She endures humiliation and bides her time, using her peerless medical skills to plan every move. She saves a princess, foils poison plots, and stirs up turmoil in the harem. But in the abyss, she meets Prince Jing, Xiao Che, a man of immense influence and unfathomable depths.
He is cold and proud, decisive and ruthless, yet he treats her differently from everyone else. Their alliance begins in secret, sealed with a promise to protect each other with their lives.
When disaster strikes at the imperial hunting grounds, he takes an arrow for her and fights on through bloodshed.
When her identity is exposed, he defies the world for her.
When rebellions erupt in the palace, he restores peace to the realm for her.
From testing one another to standing together through life and death, from a blood feud to love taking root, she returns from hell, and he walks beside her through the darkness.
When the ironclad evidence comes to light and the wrongful case is finally overturned, every enemy pays for their blood debts. He offers her an empire as her bride-price, sends a wedding procession stretching ten miles, and takes her as his wife, promising she will be the only one in his heart for all their lives.
The fiercest love in this world is to brave blades and flames together, to guard a vast realm side by side, and, after enduring countless trials, still be able to hold hands and gaze at one another. Moonlight shines across the nine heavens, and they will never part in this life.
