Powerful Rivals in a Political Game | Love and Hate | Black Lotus vs. Beloved | Secret Identities Revealed
This is a story about who can be more heartless...
He is a deposed prince of a different surname. He wants to live, and to live with dignity.
He pretends not to know that she is the renowned General Long Qiao, maneuvering at every turn to force her into a wedding and lure her into his trap.
He thought it was all an act, until he saw how fiercely and passionately she lived.
By the time he fell, he realized the act had long since become a part of him.
She clings to life only to fulfill the wish of her beloved, who has passed away.
Inadvertently drawn into the vortex of a power struggle, she falls for the warmth and tenderness he has deliberately laid out for her.
When she realizes that his affection is all a scheme, she walks away without hesitation.
But he grabs her. “A Ye, did you ever have even the slightest bit of genuine affection for me?”
She knocks his sword aside with hers. “You gave me tenderness, and I gave you pleasure. We each got what we wanted, that’s all!”
Yet he insists on risking his whole heart for even a sliver of her affection, though it may be crushed to pieces.
Her beloved suddenly returns from the dead and begs her to take him back!
The friend who has been through life and death with her is suddenly killed by his hand!
Love and hate shatter in an instant.
She is poisoned with a love bug, loses all her memories, and ends up in enemy territory.
Political schemes are traps at every turn, and love hides a blade in every embrace.
After seeing the countless sides of the world, she is the only one for whom he is willing to bow his head.
Before a vast army, he gives up the throne within his grasp just to keep her safe.
She fights her way through a sea of enemies with her sword, then gently strokes his cheek. “Jiuqing, if even this was part of your scheme... then I admit defeat.”
