[Gloomy and self-loathing yandere genius × timid yet brave scheming beauty]
1. Anise Chen, a musical actor from the 21st century, died suddenly at the end of the stage. When she opened her eyes again, she became the seventy-first concubine of Farhad Shah, the monarch of the Arslan dynasty.
Tulle golden bell, deep palace cage, she was trembling in this gorgeous foreign cage, just looking for a glimmer of hope.
Until that day of the judicial trial, a young inspector wearing a white mask and holding the power of life and death walked in. He was the sharpest sword in the monarch's hand, and he was also an evil ghost who made the entire Tehran Palace fearful. ——His name is Eric.
2. Eric learned the rules of survival in the Persian palace: flattery hides poisonous tongue, kneeling posture hides sharp claws. While he was carving ingenious machinery for the king, he was just a breathing corpse.
He hid his mutilated and ugly true appearance under the mask and looked coldly at the killing and desire in this decadent palace.
It wasn't until he heard the voice of the Eastern Beloved Concubine that sounded like the sounds of nature that his heart, which had been dead for many years, beat like crazy for the first time.
Everyone in the world thought that he was a cold-blooded, cruel, heartless and desireless inspector, but no one knew that in the dim palace of penitence, he looked at the woman who belonged to the monarch wantonly and greedily. ——Her name is Anis.
3. Beside the misty white marble bath, the strong fragrance is steaming in the air. In the confusion and gasping for air, she accidentally pulled off the mask from his face.
"When you see my ugliness, do you want to run away?"
The man fell into rage and panic, and pressed her hands against the edge of the cold white jade pool.
"It's too late, Annie, you can't escape. You will be obsessed with my body. No... To be precise, we will be addicted to each other's bodies. If you are poisoned by me... You will never get rid of me again."
