He, the ruthless emperor who strategized and abandoned love, his only long-cherished wish was to unify the world.
She, a business prodigy who was born into a merchant family, unexpectedly became the emperor's ally because of a deal. She hated him for taking away her freedom, but she helped him unify her.
In the world, is it obsession that leads to death or love at first sight?
He, the romantic prince who sang and sang every night and lingered among flowers, fell in love with only one person.
He was as calm as water and as pale as a chrysanthemum, a worldly master, but he gave up his lover because of a blood feud.
He arranged for her to enter the drama just for the dignity of the emperor; he turned against her brother just for a beautiful smile; he gave her away just for the blood feud.
How can she depend on him if he is as domineering as him?
As affectionate as he is, how can she live with him?
How could she forget each other if he was as heartless as him?

"Gong Ruiyao, I and you are just a cat-and-mouse game. How can an emperor have true love? It's just your wishful thinking!" The man looked at the woman on the ground coldly, every word hurting her.
"Haha, I am indeed crazy!" The woman wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, stood up with difficulty, and staggered toward the door.

"Yao'er, how can you force the love of an emperor? As long as you are willing, I am willing to give up everything, just to be able to join hands with you for the rest of my life." The man looked at the crumbling woman, with deep affection and care in his eyes.
"Yao'er is too tired to live and love in this life. Her heart is dead and her love is gone. It's hard to repay your affection, so why should you be persistent." The woman looked at the man indifferently, with a faint smile on her bloodless face.

"Yao'er, if I had known that I was deeply in love with you, how could I have given you away? Give me another chance, I am willing to put aside my hatred and walk away with you." Looking at the woman's cold and heartless back, a flash of pain flashed in the man's eyes.
It was an unintentional mistake, but he was accidentally involved in a battle between emperors and became the target of public criticism. Love and betrayal, use and being used, where does love end up...
