During the struggle for the throne, the Xiang family backed the wrong side and fell into disaster overnight. The new emperor hinted that the Xiang family should send the frail and sickly Xiang Wangchen to the palace to beg for mercy.
After entering the palace, Xiang Wangchen was tormented. The new emperor threatened him with the lives of his family, leaving him unable even to take his own life to prove his resolve.
But aside from forcing himself on him at first, the new emperor was attentive to him in every other way. Gradually, Xiang Wangchen realized that he had fallen for the new emperor.
Unable to accept himself, he eventually escaped with someone's help by faking his death.
On the way, Xiang Wangchen heard that the new emperor had knelt before the fire-damaged palace for three days and nights, treasuring a keepsake found in the flames. He pardoned the Xiang family, and even insisted on posthumously conferring the title of Empress on a Xiang.
Xiang Wangchen left the past behind and hid in a small town, where he became a teacher.
One day, he opened his front door and saw a familiar figure.
He tried to flee, but was held in a tight embrace. A frenzied, obsessive voice sounded beside his ear:
"This whole world belongs to me. Where do you think you can run, my Empress?"

He Lian Can's mother died early. Neglected and bullied from childhood, he was helped only by Xiang Wangchen.
In his eyes, Xiang Wangchen was sacred as an immortal and pure as a blank sheet of paper.
He Lian Can believed that everything had to be seized, whether it was candy as a child or the emperor's throne...
After years of painstaking scheming, he claimed the throne and couldn't wait to abduct Xiang Wangchen into the palace. He couldn't resist defiling the immortal and sullying the blank sheet.
At first, he thought it would be enough as long as A Chen stayed by his side. But little by little, he grew more and more greedy. He wanted not only Xiang Wangchen's body, but his heart as well...
