Denghuangtai

Pei Qingyan and Yun Zheng first crossed paths in their youth, and to all of Chang'an, they were the picture of a perfect match. But a sudden upheaval tore them apart, turning childhood sweethearts into bitter foes. One remained in Chang'an, the other vanished to the frontier, and both swore they would never meet again. Five years later, border unrest erupted. Pei Qingyan, once a celebrated female general crowned with military glory, now found herself a prisoner with her very life hanging by a thread. Meanwhile, Yun Zheng—who had once been brimming with youthful ambition—had transformed into a cunning, ruthless minister of terrifying power, feared by all. They came face to face once more in the prison cell. One, driven by hidden designs, probed and taunted relentlessly; the other, bound by circumstance, dared not let even a flicker of his true feelings show.
