For a century, the imperial court and the great clans have vied for power, and the emperor's authority has gradually waned.
Among the great clans, the Jin clan of Danyang, the Lu clan of Jiangling, and the Gu clan of Linchuan lead the way.
Jin Yue was born into the Jin clan of Danyang and has lived there for eighteen years.
To win the great clans over, the emperor offers the position of crown princess in exchange for peace. Jin Yue signs up without hesitation.
Unlike her four talented older brothers, Jin Yue has never been much of a scholar.
Fortunately, she comes from a distinguished family and is doted on by her parents. She simply grows up spoiled and domineering, and no one dares criticize her.
She isn't the one her family would choose for a political marriage, nor is she the one who will bring honor to the family.
If that's the case, she might as well do whatever she pleases.
Jin Yue first meets the Crown Prince Xie in the twentieth year of Cheng'an.
The crown prince is sent south to deal with the floods, but the Liu clan of Jiangnan blocks his way and tries to force him into submission. He is so enraged that he vomits blood on the spot.
When Jin Yue turns around, she sees a man as elegant as a jade tree, gentle and refined, and terribly pitiful.
She thinks: How about taking him home?
She could make him the king of the road not only in Jiangnan, but even in Jiangbei.
Everyone knows that Crown Prince Xie is frail and sickly, and the emperor's only son.
But no one knows that behind his gentle, harmless appearance, the crown prince secretly commands the Great Zhao Empire's million-strong army.
Jin Yue of the Danyang Jin clan is arrogant, domineering, and spoiled, and was never the crown prince's first choice for a wife.
That is, until the day he sees her flip over a carriage belonging to the Liu clan of Jiangnan with one hand. She's so fierce that he can't forget the sight.
Knowing that she likes gentle, handsome young men who look delicate and helpless, he suddenly smiles.
He thinks he knows how to catch her eye!
