The Abandoned Empress of the Cold Palace: Peerless Edge

She, Mu Xihan, came for revenge. Being an empress cast aside in the Cold Palace meant nothing to her. Her parents had died tragically on the battlefield, but there was more to their deaths than met the eye. She would make the culprit endure a thousand lifetimes of scorn. Everyone said the discarded empress in the Cold Palace was ugly, never imagining that one day she would reveal a face of peerless beauty. Beauty was far from all she had to offer.

He, Jimo Yuyan, was once a hostage who had been abandoned. He swore that one day he would claim the highest throne. Keep his talents hidden and build up his strength: those were the lessons the seven-year-old girl taught the ten-year-old boy. He gradually grew into a prince with a commanding presence, his innate nobility so intimidating that people hardly dared approach him.

When they met again as adults, she was the empress of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, and he was Prince Yu of the Chiqian Kingdom.

She wanted revenge. Fine, he would help her. He wanted not her gratitude, but her heart.

When she finally left, he finally understood that her heart was truly as cold as ice. But how could he have known that when they met again, things would go like this?

“Mother, why does this man keep staring at you?”

“...” Mu Xihan was speechless.

“Sang’er, you can’t deny our relationship now. This boy really does look like me.” (Sang’er is the heroine’s childhood nickname.)

“...” Mu Xihan was still speechless.

Since Heaven had spared her life, she would stay by his side. She would help him claim the throne. Even if the road were soaked in blood, it would be easier to travel together.
