The Shen family was falsely accused and ruined. Her younger sister died a horrific death from the Mysterious Chain poison.

As the daughter of a convicted official, she was forced to take her sister's place in the palace, reduced to the lowest kind of tribute.

Everyone said she wouldn't survive three days, but they didn't know she was born to tame beasts. A bone whistle commands every animal, and her keen sense of smell can tell life from death.

The tyrant was cruel and bloodthirsty, and the palace was littered with bones.

Yet her fearless courage and uncanny ability to see through conspiracies captivated him.

She tames tigers, breaks poisons, investigates old cases, and uncovers the palace's deepest secrets.

He protects her, spoils her, helps her take revenge, and grants her absolute power.

“My harem has room for only you.”

“Your Majesty, I have no wish to be your consort. I only want to clear my family's name, and to tame you, the tyrant.”

A tribute bride × a cold-blooded emperor. From pawn to the apple of his eye, she wins his heart with a bone whistle, while he offers her an empire as his betrothal gift!
