Cold-blooded, ruthless spymaster VS handsome, charming young Imperial Preceptor
Straightforward young lady with maxed-out combat skills VS a bewitching young man with a mind full of clever schemes
In Nansha City, everyone knew that the powerful Grand Princess had a handsome "male favorite" by her side, inseparable from her day and night, even sharing her bed.
Few knew, however, that she was also the second-in-command of the "Hundred Herbs Hall," a place where the powerful of the Xia Dynasty loved to spend their time.
She had been ordered to keep an eye on the court officials. Recently, a new favorite had appeared at the emperor's side and risen to the position of "Imperial Preceptor" in just a few days. It was highly suspicious.
He was the emperor's latest favorite. Rumor had it that he was charming and as handsome as Pan An, and that he was especially skilled at bewitching people.
[Scene]
Leaning against the window, she watched the young women crowding shoulder to shoulder, flocking in just to catch a glimpse of his "beauty." She curled her lips into a cold sneer. "Is this so-called 'bewitching people' just using one's looks to win favor?"
The alluring woman draped over her gave a charming smile. "Yunhua, you shouldn't talk about yourself like that."
She was ordered to investigate him, but he turned the tables and trapped her in a narrow alley.
He raised a delicate eyebrow and blinked his beautiful phoenix eyes. "Oh? I never expected Lord Yunhua to be interested in men, too."
She smiled scornfully. "Is this how you seduce the young emperor?"
He had a way of bewitching people's hearts and spent his whole life trying to win one, never knowing that she had long since become a "dead woman" without a heart.
In a time of chaos, this is the story of a group of spies bound by deep affection. If you like it, please add it to your collection. Your support keeps me writing.
