Alternative title:
A Picture-Perfect Kingdom: The Winter Sun Rises Over the Eastern Peak
A serious political intrigue synopsis
From the hero's perspective:
He was once a refined young gentleman who dreamed of passing the imperial examinations and entering officialdom. Who could have guessed that disaster would strike his family? His father was implicated in a rebellion, and to save his own life, he entered the palace as a eunuch and was drawn into the whirlpool of court politics.
Embezzlement, illicit funds, assassination, collusion... He investigated every case, for his country and its people. Who says entering officialdom is the only way to serve?
One day, he would stand at the very top and prove his ability to the world, making them see him.
From the heroine's perspective:
War broke out on the border, and the Tartars invaded her home. Her entire family was left destitute, and her mother even put a price on her and sold her as a servant. Then he appeared... and took her away.
From that day on, she trained in archery, horsemanship, martial arts, and poison-making until she mastered them all, just so that one day she could serve the Eastern Depot and work for him.
Miss Ye also has too many scenes...
Will it be updated again? Want to see 2 and 3
Damn, do you want to update it?
Can eunuchs kick the gang?
I understand the truth, but it's still hard to like this Ye Xingwan. I always feel like she doesn't have any good ideas.
Finished reading! The setting of this article didn't quite appeal to me, but the author's writing style kept me reading. Nowadays it is difficult to find a novel that portrays each character with such care.
Xun Jihan hasn't ascended the throne yet, so his son shouldn't be called a prince, right?
I don't originally read Machiavellian writings, but it's so beautifully written in big letters (tears flowed out of the corners of my mouth in dismay) I love Shen Yuze so much
People's hearts are unpredictable. I feel like the male protagonist is more humane than them.
It's rare to see someone fighting against Emperor Fengtian Chengyun
