Yao Ling was the prodigy who helped tip the war to his country's side. At the age of fifteen, he was a master at the blade and adept at strategy. However, he was still a victim of war and had more enemies than he ever had a family, which was no surprise that he was murdered through poison.
Then he wakes up as the sickly son of the cunning and cold Empress of the Emperor's harem.
Empress Xuefeng is a beautiful cold man, with sharp eyes and a glare that makes generals stand upright. His personality is so heartless and ruthless that it is widely known across the empire that said Emperor avoids even looking at him and only talks to him once a month only for a few hours to fulfill his duties as husband and lawful wife.
Despite the Emperor's public lack of affection many concubines and consorts are still jealous of either the man or the seat itself. When seeing an opportunity, many will stop at nothing to get there.
Yao Ling is now the son of said Empress and he can admit, as a soldier of war, nothing has been more difficult than surviving in this life he's been "blessed" with.
I am really enjoying this novel! So far it's been very interesting and seems very promising. I hope the future chapters are updated steadily. Looking forward to how all the relationships between the characters come together.
