The ruler of Great Liang was debauched and tyrannical, and eunuchs held power. Shen Han, the son of a merchant, defied all convention and raised a rebellion, advancing from the frontier toward the capital. While out inspecting the area, he happened to meet Lu Anxi.
Knowing he would not live long, Shen Han wanted to leave behind an heir by using his own body. Lu Anxi, with exceptional features and bone structure, whose mother had died early and who had been driven out by his father, was undoubtedly the best choice.
As they spent time together, Shen Han discovered Lu Anxi's talent and appointed him deputy general. Just as their feelings were growing, Lu Anxi lured away the troops attempting to attack their camp while the main force was absent. By the time Shen Han arrived, there was nothing left but corpses scattered across the ground.
The child, conceived at the wrong time, became Shen Han's only lifeline. Then, six months into the pregnancy, he caught sight of the opposing commander from afar on the battlefield. At a glance, he recognized the man as his child's father. The man's gaze was colder than ever, as if he were looking at a dead thing.
After losing consciousness and falling from his horse, Shen Han experienced a brush with death. As he touched his belly, he couldn't help wondering whether, during all those lonely nights when he struggled to protect the baby, Lu Anxi had been surrounded by pampered wives and beautiful concubines.
At midnight, Lu Anxi knocked out the soldiers guarding the tent and sneaked into the enemy strategist's quarters. Then... he got a hard slap across the face.
"How dare you come here?!"
The redness around Shen Han's nose and eyes lent a touch of warmth to the cool, beautiful face he usually wore, making him seem especially worthy of tenderness.
Lu Anxi, who thought he'd fallen in love with the enemy strategist at first sight and had boldly pursued him, only to get slapped: ?
Lu Anxi, realizing the enemy strategist he'd fallen in love with at first sight already had a history with him and even had his child: Oi!!!
