After My Kingdom Fell, the Mad Regent Chained Me Up

[Dark, stoic fake eunuch × clear-eyed scheming beauty + fated entanglement + evenly matched leads + love and hate + forced love + political intrigue + groveling male lead]

On the night the city fell, Murong Shuang, the exalted Princess Yongning of Dayan, became a prisoner of the regent.

Ten years ago, when his father, the emperor, had him brutally tortured, she offered him a handkerchief. Ten years later, he shackled her for life with black iron anklets.

That year, the whole city was ablaze. The man lifted her chin, his eyes brimming with hatred. “Your lofty pity back then disgusted me for ten years. Now, I’ll make you wish you were dead.”

At first, he cut off every path of escape, forced her to play the zither and serve as a slave, and swore to grind her pride into dust.

But later, when the great lie behind the fall of two dynasties was exposed, the mark of the Beixuan royal family and Dayan’s secrets became entwined.

It turned out his hatred was a joke, and her love was fate.

“Murong Shuang, I don’t want what this world owes me anymore.” The man bent down, trembling as he removed her shackles with his own hands. “I only want you.”

Watch as a fallen princess and a ruthless regent overturn the political chessboard in the imperial palace, love and hate each other, and fight back from the brink!
