On Su Tangning's first day disguised as a man and sneaking into the Ministry of Revenue, her enemy brought her back to his manor as an adviser.
Her enemy was Xiao Jingchen, the prince with the greatest military achievements of them all.
Su Tangning had thought she had no chance of taking revenge, but it turned out there was always a way. The prince had practically delivered himself right to her door...

After seven years of slaughter on the battlefield, Xiao Jingchen had always been ruthless and calculating, with a keen understanding of people's hearts.
Only after losing Su Tangning did he learn the full taste of regret.
Now she had returned after faking her death. Though something about it seemed suspicious, he had no intention of asking questions.
She was so delicate. Who else could protect her but him?

That day, with bandits kneeling across the courtyard, Xiao Jingchen rubbed the betrothal letter tucked in his sleeve, eager to leave.
She was waiting for him south of the city.
The moment the fireworks bloomed, he would ask for her hand before everyone, beneath a sky of dazzling color.
Who could have guessed that when the guards brought out the bandit leader at swordpoint and removed her mask, they would reveal a delicate face?
That face had been nestled in his cloak just last night, too sleepy to keep her eyes open, yet still insisting she didn't want to rest.
"We agreed to meet south of the city. You... you lied to me again," she said, sounding both fierce and frail.
Then she added in a small voice, "I'm not afraid of you."
Xiao Jingchen laughed in exasperation.
Who would have thought that his talk last night of luring out a spy would flush out the little adviser he'd been keeping in his manor, the one he had to coax every day?
The fireworks hadn't even begun, and the princess consort he meant to marry had already become his greatest achievement!
