Five-year-old orphan Bai Zhi is sold to the prince’s estate. Innocently, she bumps into the cold-faced Prince Yan Yunxiao and accidentally knocks over an ink stick, earning herself the pet name “Sweetheart.”
The prince’s estate is rife with undercurrents. A side consort frames her for theft, and amid chaos at a palace banquet, Bai Zhi nearly gets silenced. Her jade pendant shatters, and her clothes are stained with blood.
When war breaks out at the border, she disguises herself as a boy and joins the army. Drunk, she ends up sitting on his lap, making the generals burst into laughter as the prince’s ears turn bright red.
Palace intrigues and poison plots never cease. When she is poisoned and loses her memory, he climbs over the wall to tell her their story, then kisses her forehead. “I’m here.”
From an ink-serving maid to an imperial attendant, he protects her, and she stays by his side through life and death.
The cold-faced God of War lowers his gaze only for her. “Sweetheart, you’re the only one for me in this life.”
