Yuan Qingsque hated this feeling.
He could sense people watching him all the time.
There were countless eyes, blinking, from the heavens to the earth.
He often felt as if he were walking through a raging fire.
Only later did he learn what that gaze was called: love.
As the last heir of the Northern Wei imperial line, with Yuan blood running through his veins, Qingsque was destined to remain trapped in the vortex of power.
In times of chaos, whoever held the emperor controlled the power of the realm.
The heritage he hated most became the shackles of his entire life.
The beautiful madmen of the Gao clan had risen from humble beginnings. They lusted after power, schemed and plotted, and were cold and cruel, yet dared to covet the highest crown in the realm.
They swore to smear their base blood across the pure white throne.
#The fallen emperor is imprisoned and forced to bear a child by a beautiful, powerful minister
#Inspired by Emperor Xiaojing of Eastern Wei and the Gao clan of Northern Qi
#How do you survive after transmigrating into a notorious historical dynasty of beautiful beasts?
#How do you survive being coveted by several deranged psychopaths at once?
#The most difficult survival level in history
All those eyes were watching Qingsque. Eyes like the Buddha's, eyes like the Devil's.
He seemed to be walking among divine statues.
The Buddha looked down from the heavens. Qingsque knelt, wanting only to beg for release.
But...
Half the beautiful man's face was smeared with blood, the other half contorted with mad hatred. "Qingsque, I turned my back on my conscience and my soul, but I have never betrayed you."
The man smiled coldly, lightly brushing his fingers over the tear at the corner of Qingsque's eye. "Does it hurt? Good."
His wings were clipped, his proud spirit broken, yet Qingsque still remembered the man kneeling before the Buddha, prostrating himself at every step as he prayed in earnest: "May my Qingsque live in peace and happiness. May I meet him again in my next life."
