The Spy Is Destined to Be Empress

Nanyue has three treasures: the hardest weapons, fertile lands, and a beauty with a slender waist named A Yao.

When A Yao was adopted by the head of the Su family, Su Yu, she had no idea she was merely one of his pawns. She knew even less that the man she loved intended to send her to an enemy kingdom as a spy.

Emperor Xie Heng of Dongzhao was shrewd and kept his distance from women. A Yao had always believed she was nothing more than a prop in his act for the world to see.

Until one day, Dongzhao went to war with Nanyue.

A minister suggested that the Emperor of Beiyan was lecherous and had long admired the beauty with the slender waist. They should offer Nanyue's beauty to Beiyan as an alliance, but Xie Heng flatly refused. "Dongzhao is not short on men. We have no need to sacrifice a woman to bring peace to the world!"

At that moment, A Yao held the intelligence in her hand, yet somehow she could not bring herself to send it...

Later, Dongzhao attacked Nanyue, and Su Yu finally received the carrier pigeon bearing the intelligence. But the handwriting was not A Yao's. It said: Chu Yao has been made empress.

Trembling, he burned the note to ashes. From the moment he adopted her, he had been certain she would never leave him in this lifetime. Only later did he realize that he had lost not only the world, but also the one and only her.

Marriage first, love later. The second male lead is hzc. The male lead recognized the female lead's identity from the start.

One-on-one romance. The female lead is a scheming beauty, and the male lead is even more cunning. They both have plenty of dramatic flair.

There will be a little palace intrigue.

Theme: Even if no one in the world loves you, never forget to love yourself.
