share time: 2026-01-14 00:36:28

Su Wanqiu, the neglected daughter of the General's Mansion, is tricked by her family into the War Prince's residence to cure Xiao Jingyan—a cold-faced prince rumored to "die within three years"—of a rare poison. She intends to retaliate against her biased relatives using the prince's power, but soon discovers that the supposedly ruthless prince has a soft side: he secretly saves her favorite osmanthus cakes, uses his body to shield her from assassins, and even has a courtyard of maple trees moved overnight just for her. Just as their love deepens, Wanqiu's identity as a survivor of the former dynasty is exposed, and Xiao Jingyan's "frailty" is revealed as a lie—he has plotted for ten years to overthrow a powerful minister, who turns out to be Wanqiu's long-lost uncle! Caught between blood ties and national justice, and with a past-life promise hidden in "dyeing autumn" (she took a sword for him in a previous life, and he promised "I will protect you in the next life"), can this bond that started with scheming break through the feuds of kingdoms and achieve a lifetime of happiness?
