Legend has it that the State of Chu was home to a wine-making beauty famed throughout the world.
Everyone said that the wine Yun Duan brewed was peerless, but Zhong Heng said the truly peerless thing was the beauty who brewed it.
In truth, ever since Yun Duan entered the palace as a maid at the age of twelve, she had only ever wanted one thing:
To make it safely to the age of twenty-five, collect her retirement pay, leave the palace, and get married.
At thirteen, Yun Duan thought: Twelve more years.
At fourteen, Yun Duan thought: Eleven more years.
At fifteen, Yun Duan thought: Huh, that young guard next door who has diligently protected me since we were children seems pretty nice, too.
And yet...
You were supposed to be a little guard, so how did you secretly become the ruler of Chu?
What am I supposed to do now, when I've been determined since childhood to collect my retirement pay, leave the palace, and get married?
After being reborn, Zhong Heng wants nothing at all. He only wants to hold Yun Duan's hand every moment, love her, protect her, and stay by her as she grows up, sharing every day and night together.
This is the story of a reborn emperor who pretends to be a guard and childhood sweetheart so he can raise his future wife right, persevering for years until he finally wins the beauty's heart.
