[Next book coming soon]
Before transmigrating, Shen Huixuan met a strange person.
The person stood coolly in the morning mist, holding an antique porcelain vessel from the Great Liang dynasty and saying they had come to return it to an old friend.
When Shen Huixuan woke again, he had become the only son of the Grand Preceptor of Great Liang.
He was also a traitor who would be reviled for generations to come.
Shen Huixuan was cautious in everything, afraid of making a single misstep.
That was, until someone killed every fish in the pond he had raised.
Shen Huixuan bent down. "Kid, who are you?"
A boy in ragged clothes clutched a dirty bun in his hand. Standing before a pond full of fish floating belly-up, he glared defiantly at Shen Huixuan.
At the time, Shen Huixuan didn't know that the person he'd met was Ji Zhuo.
A hostage prince of the past, and the future ruler of the nation.
Later, when defeat came like an avalanche, Shen Huixuan no longer felt much hatred when he thought of Ji Zhuo.
He only remembered that year, when the wind was bitterly cold. Ji Zhuo came through the snow, and the snowflakes that landed on his umbrella were as breathtakingly beautiful as pear blossoms in full bloom.
"A dream of wealth and glory, and then waking to find everything gone."
"Use me in exchange. Exchange me for a prosperous age and peace for all generations, and for the reverence of your people, though you may be lonely at your side."
