The Boundary of Tides

share time: 2026-03-08 00:35:26

Lin Wan, a healer in Tide Village, has always abided by the ancestral rule: "Never cross the tide line." But on a stormy night, she breaks the taboo to save Gu Zhao, a "stranded young man" found on the beach. To heal his fatal wounds, she uses up her family's century-old Tide Grass. When Gu Zhao recovers, he leaves a note: "Wait for me to retrieve the most important thing—I'll repay you with my life." Then he vanishes beyond the tide line. Three months later, news spreads that a new emperor has ascended the throne—Gu Zhao. He returns to Tide Village with imperial guards, holding a royal betrothal letter and smiling: "The man you saved wasn't a nobody, but the crown prince hunted by rebels. The 'thing' I retrieved is this entire empire—now, I'm using it to ask you to cross the tide line and be my empress. Will you?"
