In the capital, everyone gossips that Gu Zhao is a dissipated young lord who only frequents brothels and wastes gold—even his betrothed, Shen Qingyao, daughter of a general, avoids him like the plague. Until she catches him giving aid to refugees in a broken temple and plotting military strategies in a secret chamber. It turns out Gu Zhao’s “worthlessness” is a ten-year charade: after his father was executed for being too capable, he used “dissipation” as a shield. But when enemy troops march on the capital, when Shen Qingyao is critically injured taking a blade for him, when the mastermind tries to kill him, this “coward” who’s hidden for a decade finally draws his sword: “I’ll protect this kingdom—and you.” Shen Qingyao, gazing at the man who’s shed his disguise, realizes the one she loves was never a dissipated fool—he’s a hero who hid his light in the noise of life.
