Delicate, Beloved by All: The Young Prince Is Still So Arrogant Today

[The Entire Palace Is Pure] [No Female Lead] [Everyone's Favorite] [Doted On by All] [A Touch of Painful Growth]

At five years old, Chu Lingyue lost his mother.

On a snowy night at the mourning hall, the emperor himself came to take him back to the palace, carrying him in his arms.

From then on, the Qianqing Palace had a new little darling.

The emperor raised him himself, the princes competed to win his favor, and everyone in the palace feared he might shed a single tear.

Yet he was a pampered, domineering little tyrant.

He hated taking medicine, was a picky eater and hard to raise, clung to people in winter and turned on them in summer. When he was unhappy, he would lower his eyes and refuse to look at you, and you had to coax him for ages before he would deign to give you a glance.

And somehow, everyone fell for it.

The emperor raised him at his side and gave him honors beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The eldest prince was gentle and considerate, secretly clearing away anyone who displeased him.

The second prince was aloof and otherworldly, but had long been plotting how to keep him all to himself.

The third prince was like a silly puppy, chasing after him every day with gifts and fretting whenever he so much as furrowed his brow.

Everyone thought he was just a pretty, useless boy spoiled rotten.

But no one knew...

This child, raised in the palms of everyone's hands, would one day grow up and become powerful enough to bear the hopes of the whole world. He would reach the highest position of all.

An older emperor with a possessive streak, a sinister and hypocritical eldest prince, a scheming, tea-loving second prince, a loyal and valiant third prince...

Everyone loved him. Everyone wanted him for themselves.

But he belonged to no one.

The bright moon hung high, its radiance illuminating the world.
