[A willful, scheming black-lotus princess × a fragile, stoic hostage prince]
|Powerful duo|A sea of hatred and passion|The husband chases his wife to win her back|Love of country|
According to the rumors, Princess Xu Feiwan of Southern Sheng was a spoiled, pretty airhead.
No one knew that at fourteen she had avenged the Crown Prince's poisoning by killing the culprit. She had a mind full of schemes and secret agents at her command.
Yan Chi, the deposed Crown Prince of Northern Liang, had lost his father and watched his mother be humiliated. Barefoot, he appeared in court, then was sent to Southern Sheng as a hostage by the uncle who had usurped the throne.
To restore his country, he was willing to kneel at her feet.
"Princess, please take pity on me."
After he married into her household, the world laughed: the princess was licentious, and the hostage prince was easy prey.
He thought he was using her, carefully plotting his every move, but under her protection, he fell in love with her.
Three years later, civil war broke out in Northern Liang, and Xu Feiwan let him return north. She received news that Yan Chi had restored his kingdom, and also heard that he had taken a new wife.
She sent him a letter of divorce.
The two kingdoms went to war. Yan Chi led his army south, reached the gates of Kaifeng, and Southern Sheng surrendered.
"Did you always think of me as a dog you raised?"
She sneered. "No. A wolf, an ungrateful wolf that can't be tamed."
[Reading Guide]
1. One-on-one romance, both are physically and emotionally faithful; some angst in the middle.
2. Please don't send unsolicited writing advice. No need to tell me if you drop the story.
3. Includes a supporting couple in a pure romance. Skip if that's not for you.
4. The female lead is starved for affection and stubborn but soft-hearted; the male lead is extremely jealous. Both have character flaws.
