In his previous life, Zheng Luo was the Qi kingdom's most beloved prince. He excelled in both civil and military affairs and enjoyed unrivaled glory.
His father promised him: “When you return victorious from the army, I will name you Crown Prince.”
But the Qi-Zhou war ended in a baffling defeat. Captured and taken to the enemy camp, he went from heaven's favored son to a “traitor,” and his father cast him aside like trash.
Worse still, rumors spread that he had been offered to the enemy commander as a favored concubine. That night, he hanged himself.
When Zheng Luo opened his eyes again, he was fourteen.
Though fate had handed him a golden opportunity, he resolved to lie flat
He told everyone he “only wanted to live a peaceful life as an idle member of the royal clan in the capital, with fine clothes, good food, and safety until the end of my days.”
In short, the farther he stayed from danger, the better.
But fate simply wouldn't leave him alone.
The Zhou kingdom sent no troops, but instead delivered a diplomatic letter naming him as the one they wanted to marry.
Zheng Luo was stunned. “This time, they're being that blunt?!”
As the tragedy of his previous life seemed about to repeat itself, Zheng Luo planned to pack up and flee under cover of night. But he found Jiang Xuan, the ruthless tyrant from his previous life, already blocking the door.
“Unwilling?”
“Then... I can marry into your family instead. We can work something out.”
