The Phoenix’s Cry Over Bronze Sparrow Terrace

【Black-Lotus Crazy Assassin × Sweet on the Outside, Dark on the Inside, Lovesick Hostage Prince】 Until she was five, Jiang Cangyue was the cherished young lady of the Chang'an Marquis's household. After she turned five, the Marquis of Chang'an died atop the cold Tongque Terrace, branded a traitor. Her mother suffered brutal torture and died. Her elder brothers were beheaded, their bodies left unburied. Her sister was hacked with blades, and no one knew whether she was alive or dead. Only Jiang Cangyue survived, hidden beneath a pile of corpses. With her family freshly slain, she swore to make them pay with their lives! Some say that when the ruler wants a minister dead, the minister has no choice but to die. But Jiang Cangyue refused to believe it. Years later, she entered the palace to demand justice from the Ji imperial clan. The slender fingertips of the girl in blue closed easily around her target's throat. With a single squeeze, a sharp crack rang out as the throat bone broke. Blood burst from the victim's eyes, and their skull caved in. She tossed the corpse aside and gave a sudden laugh, her gaze as limpid as autumn waters and her features as delicate as spring hills. “The Ji emperors will pay with their lives for the entire Jiang family.” * To take revenge, she chose to work with the hostage prince of Wu'an, killing the people who had tormented him and staining the palace in blood. The girl curled her lips in invitation. “Your Highness, would you care to be my accomplice?” Ji Yanxiao tilted his head toward her and smiled brightly. “Gladly.” He took her hand. Two people carrying a blood feud joined forces. Before meeting Jiang Cangyue, he would smile, his eyes curved and his voice lilting. “What do you want from me?” After meeting her, he trembled with excitement, unable to rein in his greedy desire for love. At last, someone understood the road ahead and would join him in his crimes. From that day on, from fallen hostage prince to mad emperor, Ji Yanxiao spent his whole life building a towering pavilion where he could reach for the moon.
