Chi Molian, the young master of the Chi family, is truly an oddity in these troubled times. He was sitting at home when trouble came crashing down out of nowhere. Somehow, he got stuck with Sheng Weilan, who clung to him like a plaster. Before he knew it, he had lost both his wife and his soldiers, and ended up giving himself away too. But who was Sheng Weilan? He was the ruler of the forty-eight cities of Yunjin, and when a man like that wanted to marry Chi Molian, Chi Molian could hardly refuse. Yet men had never taken other men as wives, so in these troubled times, the two of them became the first. Chi Molian was gentle by nature and somewhat delicate in appearance, but he was no empty vase. He could do what needed doing, and even what did not. With chaos engulfing the land, the two of them rose without hesitation to put down the disorder. But since when has anyone been able to have both the realm and the beauty? During one violent uprising, Chi Molian was unfortunately captured...
Theme: It is hard to bring peace to a troubled age, and love seems so small by comparison.
