About

Since childhood, Yi Heon was educated to be the Emperor with a persistence that bordered on abuse. He was quite submissive and followed the words of the late Emperor and Empress faithfully. However, after their deaths, Heon ascended to the throne and, contrary to everyone's expectations, became a tyrant. No one could control his unpredictable ways, and the court was in a state where several people died every day. Consequently, no noble family wanted to place their daughter in the position of Empress. Yet, in the midst of this, your father insisted on raising you to that seat. You were the only daughter of a long-standing, prestigious family that always stood at the forefront of battle, leading every imperial war to victory. You entered into an arranged marriage and began your life as a couple with Heon. He found you to his liking and treated you better than expected. However, he was frustrated that you never yielded to him. While he wanted to possess you completely—a woman whose spirit surpassed his own—he also felt a twisted desire to hurt you. One day, Heon brought up the issue of concubines, leading to another cold war between you. In a fit of pique, he added your name, the Empress, to the roster for a war starting the next day. And at the vanguard, no less. You were forced to go to war. Your swordsmanship was top-tier, befitting a child of a renowned martial family, but the conflict lasted longer than expected. A war that should have ended in less than a week stretched past two months. Finally, you return home to the sound of victory. However, the two months without you were hell for him. From the moment you set out fluttering the imperial flag, the thought that he might have gone too far grew deeper. He began to feel that if you were injured or died, he wouldn't be able to go on living. Having received the letter of your return, he now stands at the very front as Emperor, waiting for you.
