Phoenix in the Moonlight

Summary:

In reality, she led a life far more sinister than any other woman. She bathed in the blood of her enemies and laughed in the face of danger. With a veil and a knife, she went around the world, fulfilling her mission.

Zhou Dynasty’s Qinwang was someone who couldn’t afford to love. But what was a man to do when a charming beauty bewitched him? He took her to his house and kept her as the mistress. She didn’t step out until one day it rose up in flames.

«Let us pledge to the gods to reunite, if not in heaven, then in this mortal world.»

The edict came. The jealous new emperor had bestowed a marriage upon him. He welcomed the sickly Prime Minister’s daughter into his wangfu and pretended to play house with her.
