Wei Changge never dreamed that she wasn't the late emperor's biological daughter, but the posthumous child of her consort mother and her former husband.
After the late emperor's death, the nine princes vie for the throne. The seventh prince, Wei Qi, defeats his rivals and claims the throne, becoming a new emperor.
The new emperor is capricious and volatile. Everyone believes that once he ascends the throne, he will immediately launch a bloody purge to eliminate his enemies.
But the first thing he does after becoming emperor is barge into Princess Wei Changge's bedchamber and order someone to read aloud the imperial decree naming her empress.
Wei Changge's eyes fill with tears. "Elder Brother, please... let me go."
"Let you go?" Wei Qi bows his head and murmurs softly in her ear, "I've wanted you for so many years. How could I possibly let you go?"

Wei Qi will never forget that snowy night ten years ago. His mother had died early, and he was a fallen prince. The empress had just beaten him brutally once again.
He was used to it by now. After the servants left, he lay alone in the ice and snow, casually wiping the blood from his lips.
Suddenly, a little round face appeared in his field of vision.
Wei Changge's warm, soft hand touched his icy cheek. In a muffled voice, she asked, "Elder Brother, does it hurt? Let me blow on it for you."
As snow swirled down from the sky, a trace of warmth slowly entered Wei Qi's cold, dark eyes.
