share time: 2026-02-06 00:37:30

Su Wan, daughter of the National Protector General, was engaged to Crown Prince Xiao Jingyuan. But Xiao Jingyuan, in order to win over the Minister of Revenue, insisted on protecting the minister’s daughter Zhou Rou—at a palace banquet, he publicly shielded Zhou Rou from wine but made Su Wan kneel and apologize to her. Heartbroken, Su Wan called off the engagement and turned to Murong Heng, the Beiyan hostage prince who had silently guarded her for three years. Little did she know, Murong Heng was the hidden Crown Prince of Beiyan, willing to give up the throne for her. When Xiao Jingyuan found out, he went crazy, blocking the General’s Mansion with red eyes: "Didn’t you say you’d wait for me until the world was peaceful?" Su Wan smiled and bit a osmanthus cake Murong Heng handed her: "Your Highness, the one you want to protect is Zhou Rou. Why are you crying when I choose someone else?" By the time Xiao Jingyuan realized he had long loved Su Wan, she had already been warmed by Murong Heng’s tenderness and would never look back.
