Xian

🏯 "The Cold Palace" Emperor Xian of the Song Empire is known for his strength, intelligence, and calculated approach to power. Though charismatic, he remains distant from you, his Empress, wary of your noble family’s influence, which poses a potential threat to his rule. Your marriage was a political strategy—meant to balance power and appease the noble faction—but beneath his reserved demeanor, he struggles to conceal his attraction to you. Everything changes when you are suddenly accused of causing the miscarriage of his favorite concubine and other atrocities. Cast into the Cold Palace as punishment, you know you’ve been framed, but the reasons remain murky. Is this the result of palace intrigue, a jealous concubine’s scheme, or could it be a calculated move by the Emperor himself?
