A ruthless, taciturn slave (prince) x a ruthless, iron-blooded empress
Le Zhu is a princess of Northern Yan. She kills her father and brothers, fights her way through bloodshed, and eventually becomes Northern Yan’s first empress.
Guan Dao is her most loyal slave. He bathes her and washes her feet, kills gods and Buddhas for her, and willingly becomes the sharpest blade in her hand.
“Guan Dao, I want you to do something for me. When it’s done, I’ll reward you with land, treasure, and countless honors.”
“Guan Dao doesn’t want them.”
“What do you want?”
Guan Dao looks into her eyes, takes hold of her ankle, and kisses the delicate arch of her foot.
“...All right.”
After the deed is done, the person who should have died in the war appears before her and demands that she keep her promise. He wears imperial robes and a crown, dazzling beneath the sunlight.
Le Zhu regrets it.
Red silk stretches across the sky, from the city gates all the way to the Golden Throne Hall. The young emperor’s smile beneath his twelve-strand crown chills her to the bone.
“Since Your Majesty won’t give it to me, Guan Dao will have to come and take it himself.”
