Gu Yanzhi, the kingdom's scheming and ruthless defender, is forced to marry Princess Zhaoning, Li Zhao—the emperor's beloved—who's sent to keep him in check. On their wedding night, Gu leaves Li alone in an empty chamber, sneering, "A princess is worth less to me than a foot soldier." But Li isn't one to yield: she plays the wronged victim to navigate palace intrigue while secretly investigating rumors of Gu's "treason." Little does she know, Gu's coldness is a mask—he's hiding a secret mission to clear his fallen brothers' names. Just as Li closes in on the truth, Gu suddenly "escalates," even sending her back to the palace… Is he truly cruel, or is he afraid she'll be dragged into danger? Two people with secrets, tangled in tests and protection, bind their true hearts tighter with every lie and sacrifice.
