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"-

[The same world as 'The Dragon's Flower. Can be read as stand alone. This is not the FULL version!] The first man she fell in love with was one-sided on her part, and her insistence on pursuing her feelings ended up destroying her father's career. The second man she fell for saved her and her family from harm, but also the one she knew could not end up with. After her first heartbroken experience, Wan Ting was being extra careful with the second man that quickly occupied her heart without much warning. Not intending to confess her feelings like how she had to her first love, she decisively avoided Prince Heng to prevent her heart from being trampled again. No one in the Guilin Kingdom does not know that Prince Heng only loved the Empress Dowager and remained unmarried, not even taking in a concubine. But when the evil sect had their eyes on Wan Ting's Flame Spirit and planned to take it away from her even at the cost of her life, she could only rely on Prince Heng for her safety. While being rescued, with her chastity in danger, Wan Ting saw an opportunity to tie Prince Heng to her side. With trembling pupils and racing heart, she wondered if she should take the opportunity presented to her. She just hoped that she would not regret her decision.
