Sister Prime Minister, You're Flustered Again

share time: 2025-10-08 00:32:48

Shen Zhaoning, the first female prime minister of Da Jing, is cold and unyielding—even the emperor defers to her. Yet she softens only for Gu Heng, the sickly prince hostage she rescued from a mass grave three years ago. He’d rub his medicine jar against her shoulder, secretly warming her frozen hands while she reviewed documents. But lately, Gu Heng has changed: he buries his face in her neck when she refuses visitors, murmuring “Sister, I’m scared”; he shoves a handkerchief with an enemy token into her hand during a treason trial, his eyes red as he asks, “Are you going to arrest me?” When Shen Zhaoning uncovers Gu Heng as an enemy spy, when she holds the imperial edict to execute him, Gu Heng smiles and stabs a knife into his chest: “Sister, I never wanted to hurt you. I just… wanted you to stop being so cold.” For the first time, her steady hands shake so much she can’t hold her brush—those “flusters” she thought were accidents? They were his life-long plan, and she? She’d already lost her heart to his little tricks long ago.
