Su Wan, a low-ranking officer in the Imperial Seal Repository, had guarded the legendary Imperial Seal for over a decade, resigned to a life with the cold stone—until a bloodied man burst in one night: Crown Prince Xiao Jingheng, fleeing from his traitorous brother who’d stolen the throne. He begged, "Save me, and I’ll give you the Seal." Su Wan, despite her hesitation, handed over the Seal and took a knife for him. But when Xiao Jingheng reclaimed the throne, his first decree was: "Marry Su Wan as Empress, with the Imperial Seal as our betrothal gift." It turned out that three years prior, when Xiao Jingheng visited the repository incognito, he’d already fallen for the girl who always covered the Seal with a velvet cloth. The "exchange" was just his plan—he never wanted the Seal; he wanted *her*, the one more precious than the entire empire.
