[The cold and cold prince who has been dormant for many years VS the timid and gentle former princess]
Once the palace was destroyed, the previous emperor ordered all the concubines and children to commit suicide in front of the palace. Only his beloved daughter Murong Yao was moved with compassion.
Unexpectedly, when Murong Yao fled halfway, she was discovered by the enemy Jingguo's army.
All the guards died in front of her in an instant. When she looked at the blade raised towards her with red eyes and fear, suddenly, a steady voice came:
"You all stand down!"
He held her hand and walked out of the bloody palace gate. Overnight, she became Zhan Yao, the concubine daughter of Prime Minister Jing Guo.
After that day, Zhan Yao lost the ability to speak and was afraid of everyone around her except him.
The first time she saw him in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she couldn't wait to stumble over and ran over, gesturing in sign language anxiously, and asked his name.
He smiled and wrote in her hand one by one: Mu Jing
Although she didn't know these two words, she still practiced them over and over silently in her heart.
He would come to see her from time to time, patiently teaching her how to speak and the principles of the world, hoping that she would become brave and confident.
One day, she heard Mu Jing discussing her marriage with the prime minister.
She mustered up the greatest courage in her life, walked up to him, and said her first words: "Mu Jing, do you want to marry me to someone else?"

Male protagonist's perspective:
Mu Jing was the prince of Jing Kingdom, and his father hoped that he would not be distracted by any emotions, so the people he had known and relied on since childhood would eventually be killed in front of him.
On the day when the previous dynasty was overthrown, he was forced to see the corpses of everyone in the previous dynasty's palace. Even the rabbit he had just released had its throat cut off by his father.
A majestic prince, he can't even protect a rabbit, what else can he protect!
Suddenly, he saw a little girl with red eyes, resembling a rabbit that had just been killed.
The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised slightly, and he narrowed his eyes and made a decision:
Why not, just protect her.
In order to keep this secret, he began to pretend to obey his father on the surface, but secretly began to win over the ministers, and power gradually flowed into his hands.
He originally thought that Zhan Yao was just a test subject of power in his heart, but when she committed suicide, he realized that he had already lost his heart.
Small theater
The yellow sand filled the sky, and the two armies were facing each other. Zhan Yao, dressed in red, slowly put the knife in front of his neck.
When Mu Jing on the opposite side saw this, he immediately panicked, his veins popped out and he shouted loudly: "Yao'er, what are you going to do? Put down your knife!"
Zhan Yao said to the soldiers of the previous dynasty behind him: "When the country was destroyed, my father told me that the country's fate was over, and I was held hostage to get to where I am today. In order to prevent the people of the world from being displaced, I am willing to die and put an end to this war!"
After saying that, she looked at him with a smile, a tear slipped from the corner of her eye, and then, blood poured out of her neck in an instant.
"No--" Mu Jing immediately ran towards her, eyes wide open.
She lay in his arms, touched his face gently with her hand, and said with a weak breath: "I have learned all the national justice you taught me. But, Mu Jing, there is only one day left before I can marry you."
