【Blurb One】
The Crown Prince died, and the Great Xuan Dynasty’s line was cut off.
The rebel army was at the gates.
To stabilize the situation and uncover the cause of her twin brother’s death, Princess Changfeng Zhao Yan had no choice but to don men’s clothing and play the role of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, who coughed blood whenever the wind blew.
On the night she entered the Eastern Palace, the Empress repeatedly warned: “Prince Su, as the only non-imperial prince of this dynasty, has long controlled the court, holds military power in his hands, and is full of wolfish ambition—he must not be underestimated!”
Hearing this, Zhao Yan clutched at her vest again and again, treading daily as though on thin ice.
Until one day, Zhao Yan fell into someone’s scheme.
When she woke, everything was in disarray—and that Prince Su, who held sway over the world, was right beside her, hair loose, robes undone, his finely arched eyes both languid and dangerous.
It was over!
Zhao Yan’s mind went completely blank, and she turned and ran.
The next moment, her sash was caught.
Prince Su gave a low laugh, his voice tinged with displeasure: “Running away just like this, isn’t that improper?”
The “little Crown Prince,” black hair scattered, face pale, stammered: “I… I’m going to read memorials.”
“Very well.”
The man leisurely twined her hair around his fingers, his voice husky as he said, “While Your Highness reads memorials, this minister shall read Your Highness.”
【Blurb Two】
The world all said that Prince Su, born rebellious and unruly, had changed his nature—no longer causing trouble or rebelling, but instead becoming obsessed with assisting the Crown Prince.
Not only did he stay overnight in the Eastern Palace daily, but also shared the same couch with the Crown Prince, feet touching as they slept.
Who could have expected that one day, when the truth came out, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was in fact a woman in disguise, cross-dressing as a man and wreaking havoc upon the court?
The entire court was in uproar, and all speculated that Prince Su would seize this chance to overthrow the throne and usurp it.
Yet unexpectedly, during the court interrogation, Prince Su, clad in a dark-black great cloak, before all the civil and military officials, bent down and lowered his head, reaching out to cover the slender fingertips of the young girl.
“Don’t be afraid. Walk forward.”
His voice, both grim and reliable, sounded faintly: “If anyone dares speak recklessly, I shall kill that person; if the heavens block the way, I shall rebel against this heaven.”
