Description:

Meng Ting Hui was the first remarkable woman in the history of the Tang Dynasty to enter the Jinshi family and the Hanlin Academy as a female scholar. Ten years ago, she was rescued from a pile of dead bodies, unkempt and disheveled. A decade later, she was well-educated and outstanding, excelling in women’s scholar-officials and becoming a prominent female official in the court for over two decades.

She was smooth-talking and cunning, using any means necessary to rise to prominence as her life goal. Over the years, she rose from a humble sixth-grade Hanlin Academy to a peer of many senior officials. Yet, no one truly understood how she managed to do it. That dragon throne loomed high above, and that man looked down upon the world. She willingly lay beside him, watching him secure his position, watch him nurture his people, watch him govern peacefully, and watch him gradually become the strongest emperor in the history of the Tang Dynasty.

Back then, he saved her, and now that she is repaying him, even if she becomes a stepping stone for his lifetime empire, she has no regrets. Yet, despite doing everything she could, she alone failed to realize that he still loves her. One is a wise ruler renowned throughout the land, and the other is a cunning minister with a long-standing reputation. Their love journey is destined to be fraught with obstacles.
