This story is set in a partly fictional world. The heroine disguises herself as a man and takes her place in the Eastern Palace. Both leads are strong.
Blurb: The first time they met, she had a veil over her face and spoke with effortless eloquence, as though she carried a whole world within her. Though he had never seen her face, she was enough to make him lose himself in love and promise her his whole life.
The girl gave him a mischievous wink, her eyes sparkling like stars. She smiled. "You're born to a noble family, while I'm as plain as they come. Will your parents let you marry me?"
The young man nodded seriously. "I'm the youngest in my family, with plenty of older brothers. I don't need to inherit the family business or bring glory to my ancestors, so they won't be particular about whom I marry."
By a twist of fate, when they met again, she had become the crown prince of a country, with a harem full of consorts in the Eastern Palace and several children to support.
He, meanwhile, was a cold-faced general who struck fear into the hearts of the Turks.
Told that his beloved had died, he was distraught and had long since given up on love. He never imagined that the next person to stir his heart would be a man!
Looking at the crown prince's breathtaking beauty, neither fully masculine nor feminine, he thought to himself: Maybe being with a man wouldn't be so bad...
At last, one day, he went mad with desire and could no longer hold himself back. He pinned the crown prince against a wall, determined to confirm the truth.
Later, the dreams of countless young women in Chang'an were shattered. They covered their faces and wept: The crown prince likes men, and the great general... likes men too!
