Chen Ruo Xuan

In a time of chaos, one is Yuwen Liang Shi, an ambitious vassal king burdened with a long-standing family vendetta; the other is Murong Jun, the Grand Princess who carries the honor of the imperial dynasty. The Son of Heaven fears the growing power of the feudal lords, while the vassal king haunted by ancestral hatred, harbors ambitions to seize the realm. What begins as a high-stakes game between an intruder and a master strategist soon becomes a fierce battle of wits. Yuwen Liang Shi, driven by a mission of revenge, and Murong Jun, determined to protect the Great Ye dynasty, each sets traps for the other. Yet as their schemes deepen, so does an irresistible attraction that pulls them both into dangerous devotion. Bound by family feuds yet united by love and the desire to save the world, the two break through the deadlock of a turbulent age, and together forge an immortal legend.

Changle County, Fuzhou Prefecture, was where the eunuch Sanbao trained before heading west. Under the maritime ban, trade in other places was depressed, but business in Changle was booming. The prosperity of the coastal areas attracted the attention of the rampant Japanese pirates. Pei You An, the deputy commander of the Shenjiying, who came to buy firearms, was invited to patrol the sea. Unexpectedly, he encountered a fierce naval battle—Japanese ships were besieging Chinese merchant ships, and Zhen Jia Fu's family merchant ship was among them. After this encounter, and to help Jia Fu escape a forced marriage, Pei You An signed a marriage contract with her. They quietly developed feelings for each other and finally became a couple after going through many hardships.
