(Palace intrigue; the male lead is not chaste, but later devotes himself exclusively to her)
In the ninth year of the Yuanqi era, the emperor returned to the capital from his southern tour, bringing a woman back from Lin'an.
Zhao Wu was breathtakingly beautiful, with delicate features and skin like ice and jade. From the moment she entered the palace, she was showered with the emperor's favor and affection.
In just three short years, she rose from Beauty to Noble Consort.
Yet no one knew that she had grown up in the pleasure quarters and learned every art of seduction. The moment she laid eyes on Qi Yanci, she knew her chance had come.
From beginning to end, all she wanted was wealth, status, and incomparable pampering.
When Qi Yanci first saw Zhao Wu, he thought she was exactly his type.
He had never denied himself anything. If he liked someone, he kept her by his side.
But later, even Qi Yanci himself never imagined that this instant attraction to her beauty
would make him cherish her for the rest of his life.
