share time: 2026-02-17 12:30:40

Shen Yan, a courtesan, disguised herself as the missing Prime Minister’s daughter to avenge her family’s massacre by the Prime Minister. Her goal was clear—get close to the newly ascended young Emperor Lu Jingzhao and use his power struggle with the Prime Minister to kill with a borrowed knife. She plotted every step, from deliberate encounters to clever schemes, gaining Lu’s trust and almost forgetting her revenge in his tenderness. But when she finally got the Prime Minister’s crimes and was ready to act, Lu smiled and pulled out her卖身契: "I’ve watched you since the day you entered the brothel." Turns out this seemingly weak emperor was the real hunter—he wanted not just the Prime Minister’s downfall, but her heart that had already fallen.
