Main CP: Nangong Jinyue x Luo Huaixi
Nangong Jinyue is the daughter of the prime minister's palace. She is both talented and beautiful, but her nature is as cold as ice.
Luo Huaixi was the regent of the current dynasty, with power over the government and the public. His nature was dissolute and romantic.
A plan and a marriage contract forced Nangong Jinyue to marry into the regent's palace...
He loves the princess but loves the country even more.
He is just like the rumors said, but different. He wants to become the supreme king and create great achievements that can be admired by all generations.
He loves the purity and kindness of the princess, and he wants all the girls in the world to be like her. He has seen many ugliness in the world, he is indifferent to the harshness of the world, he is cruel and bloodthirsty, and he also pities all living beings...
She loved the prince no matter what.
When we first met when we were young, our hearts secretly promised.
She loved the gentleness of the prince, and through his jade-like face, she glimpsed the unruly young man he once was. She knew his reluctance, and she understood the disguise he tried so hard to cover up his edge and suppress the humiliation in his heart.

Deputy CP: Yi Qin X Jing Xian
She is the regent's sword and a pawn.
He is the King of Cang Ling who rose up midway.
He was carefree when he was young, but during a war, Xuefeng Mountain was stained red with blood.
War broke out in the surrounding area, and the Yun clan who protected the Cang Ling people returned to Luo Hua. However, his father and brother were unwilling to be humiliated and refused to pray for the blessing of the Central Plains. Eventually, the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed.
He was protected from death by his brothers. During his escape, he met a girl younger than himself...
He has been looking for her these years...
When she was a child, there was a civil war in her clan, and she and her family were lost in the war. After traveling hundreds of miles, she fainted from hunger by the Lingshui Lake bordering Luohua. She was picked up by Luo Huaixi, who had just become the regent, and she became the whip in his hand from then on.
Until it was given to him as a chess piece...
Jing Xian: "When we first met, you were just an unpopular princess. When we met again, I was already bowing to you."
Nangong Jinyue: "(laughing) How can King Cang Ling be the same?"
