[A willful, pampered but kindhearted young doctor x a ruthless, scheming little blind boy who loves to play the victim]
In her previous life, Yu Ying was cherished by her parents. She was wealthy and beautiful, and had a wonderful betrothal that everyone in Luoyang envied.
But it all depended on her identity as the third daughter of the Marquis's household.
When the real third daughter returned, Yu Ying stormed out amid everyone's mockery. The Yu family never came after her. Instead, she received the terrible news that both her father and elder brother had died in battle. Her country fell, her family was destroyed, and she died far from home while fleeing.
Reborn, Yu Ying picked up the medical books she had long neglected and opened a clinic. All she wanted was to find the real daughter early and bring her home so the family could be reunited.
By chance, she met a Xianbei boy locked away in a prisoner camp. The little blind boy was barely alive and utterly pitiful, especially with that impossibly beautiful face of his. He lay in a corner, like fragile glass that would shatter at a touch.
Overcome with compassion, Yu Ying not only healed his eyes, but also helped him find his family.
But as she watched the little blind boy rise through the ranks and seize power, his name... why did it sound so much like that of the general who led the attack on Luoyang in her previous life?!
Later, the new emperor who ruled half the realm was known to all as the Xianbei war god, a merciless killer on the battlefield who had climbed to power over mountains of corpses. In the ruthless struggle for power, he had purged his enemies with an iron fist and become the volatile Lord of the North.
No one knew that he had once been a blind Xianbei slave in a slave camp, nearly dying on a snowy night.
Until one person entered his life.
A young woman, her cheeks red from the northern snow and wind, placed in his palm a birthday coin bearing her family's heartfelt wishes. Her eyes curved into a smile as she said, "Ahe Zhen, may you live long and prosper."
He clutched the coin and took step after step toward her blessing.
A healthy body, power beyond measure.
But it still wasn't enough.
He wanted her to take pity on him again.
