[Battle-hardened princess vs. rebel warlord in a time of chaos | Adversarial lovers | Two powerful leads, 1v1 | From sworn enemies to devoted partner]
At first: a ruthless, iron-willed princess against a proud, cold-blooded rebel warlord.
Later: a cool, glamorous empress who cares for all under heaven against a hypocritical madman who gives up his kingdom just to claim a title by her side.
Zhaohua thinks she and Li Zheng are natural enemies, doomed to clash at every turn.
In their bitterest years, she led troops to crush him, and he led troops to surround her.
She wanted to strengthen imperial rule; he wanted to overthrow the court.
Everyone in the realm thinks that if the rebel scoundrel ever captures Zhaohua, he’ll tear her limb from limb.
Until the deadly ambush in Jiangnan, where she had almost no chance of survival and the whole court hoped she would die.
Only the unhinged rebel warlord charged through the encirclement on horseback, covered in blood, shielding her with his body as he roared, eyes red: “I dare anyone to lay a hand on her!”
