Qin Yue is a ruthless woman feared in both business and politics. Calm and composed, she's skilled at disguising herself. Everyone looks down on her background, yet they're all afraid of her and eager to curry favor with her. After an accidental explosion, she is reborn as the daughter of a guardian general. She retains her memories of her previous life but has never known tenderness. Now, with a loving family in her new life, she decides to be herself again.
Ye Jiangchen is the sixth prince of Yun, an unwanted child blamed for his mother's death. In the eyes of the world, he's a weak, talentless disgrace to the royal family. In private, however, he's cold-blooded and brilliant. He has endured and bided his time for over a decade, all for the sake of revenge.
The divide between tradition and freedom, the gulf between modern and ancient times: Two people who should never have crossed paths meet and come to know each other through an accident. They overcome every obstacle together. She helps him avenge himself and claim the throne, and he promises to protect her family and ensure their security for life.
Is it true love or a lie?
Excerpt one: "I'll help you, but you have to promise me something." Qin Yue speaks calmly and steadily, no longer acting spoiled as she usually does. She admits that she has fallen for the young man before her.
The young man pauses, then smiles. "All right. If it's what you want, and I can do it, then I'll do it." Qin Yue smiles too.
Excerpt two: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the promise you made back then? Today, I ask only that you protect the Qin family for life. I seek no favor or glory, only a life free from want."
Excerpt three: Today, the eldest son of the Defender General's residence was appointed General of the Chariots and Cavalry and requested to be stationed at the border. The Yun Emperor tried for a long time to persuade him to stay, but failed. "You'd be angry if you knew I sent your brother to the border, wouldn't you? Hahaha... No, I misspoke. You probably wouldn't even deign to be angry with me."
Theme: We can throw caution to the wind for love, but we must leave ourselves and our families a way out.
