Blurb:
Luo Zhi is Xia Ling's youngest princess, dazzling and beautiful, and the apple of Emperor Chengwu's eye. Even the common people adore her.
The first time she saw him, he had a face as handsome as jade, with red lips and white teeth, just like the refined gentleman who had stepped out of a storybook. In the bustling crowd, Luo Zhi spotted Wen Yan at once.
With a bold smile, she asked him, "Would you be willing to come back to the palace with me?"
The man's smile was tender and affectionate. He knelt before her on one knee, full of reverence. "To be favored by the princess is my good fortune."
And so, the palace gained a new tutor.
She thought he liked her because he warmed her hands on cold days and shielded her from arrows.
Only when the man, clad in the armor of an enemy nation, led his army in breaching the imperial city did she realize she had been wrong. So terribly wrong.
