【Two male leads | Ancient setting | Reborn | Court politics】
They had fallen in love in their previous life, but before they could marry, the shadow guard was framed and killed. Even at the moment of his death, he had not discovered who was behind it. All he knew was that someone was targeting the people around him.
He and the crown prince shared the same mother, but someone was sowing discord between them, hoping to turn them against each other. The shadow guard became the enemy’s opening.
The imperial decree arranging their marriage was a promise he made to the shadow guard, a way to make up for the regrets of his previous life, and a powerful means of protecting him.
But at the same time, the decree brought the shadow guard into public view, making him an easier target.
The imperial chess game begins anew, undercurrents swirl through the court, and neighboring nations watch like tigers poised to pounce.
Caught in the middle, he cannot escape. All he can do is keep moving toward his goal.
He guards the borders from without and secures the realm from within. He can protect his country, and the people by his side.
