A dazzling, relentlessly ambitious ministeress vs. a cold, unhinged chancellor
Jiang Qi and Lu Heng are sworn enemies. From being classmates at the Imperial Academy to entering government together, they have always been at odds, their feud growing deeper with every clash.
At court, they constantly square off, tensions running high. Memorials accusing one another pile up on the emperor's desk.
There are even rumors that Jiang Qi was behind the multiple assassination attempts that nearly killed Lu Heng.
Until Lu Heng rises to the very top and becomes chancellor. Everyone says his first order of business will be to eliminate his former enemy and grind her bones to dust.
But at the year-end palace banquet...
In a garden rarely visited, Lu Heng pins Jiang Qi's hands and traps her between the rocks of an artificial hill. He grips her face and asks, "What? Don't you miss that night?"
Jiang Qi pinches the flesh at his waist with all her strength and sneers, "I do. How could I not?"
Everyone knows Jiang Qi has risen through the ranks so she can trample her former enemy underfoot and cast him back into the dust.
But no one knows that Lu Heng has spent his life plotting and scheming for the sake of one person: Jiang Qi.
He wants to clip her wings and lock her by his side, make her yield, and hear her beg for mercy and admit she was wrong.
He resents her for shining like the sun and moon, yet never shining on him alone.
