A love like lotus, but in a goblet of poison. In revenge and in love a woman can be more barbarous than man. Definition of revenge is going to change here, beyond one can imagine.

"You are mine, and only mines forever and ever". "No one can take you away from me, even the gods and goddesses". 〰️〰️ You were living a normal life with your family as your father was one of the prime minister for the ruler of this empire. Even though you hadn't met him, rumors said that he was a cold and mean ruler. Dispute the attitude, some said that he had lots of concubine and he himself was a good young looking man.

*Please read the edited version of this story by the same name* It was meant to be a privilege to become a Concubine of the Korean Emperor, Min Yoongi. His charming demeanor and well respected nature made him a favorite throughout Korea. But truthfully, I couldn't care less. Oddly enough, I was a doppelganger to Queen Min, Min Yoongi's ruthless wife. Just trying to survive might not be enough in this hell hole.

Suddenly removed from her life of peace and tranquility, Nyang is tossed into the inner court, the birth home of schemes and manipulations. Just as she tries to forget an old flame and reignite another, she is stabbed in the back when she least expects it and by who she never suspected. Again, she finds herself in another cage, dishonored and disgraced. This time she has decided not to stay down, she has decided to rise and make those responsible atone for the past. "It's a battle of wits and survival. It's a battle of bloody politics, mischiefs and schemes, a battle where you have no ally, where you can trust only your self. This is the palace, a place of grandeur and death"- Park Sungnyang.

Love is a luxury that the emperor can not afford. Even when his love is given in return, it fares no chance against love that has been perserved. Is death the only thing more powerful than love? Or is he too weak-willed to grasp it himself?
