Summary Su Qianyi lived and died as a king of the underworld-cold-blooded, calculating, and feared by all. As the supreme Mafia boss, betrayal and blood were daily bread. Death should have been the end. Instead, he opens his eyes in a four-year-old body-fragile, small, and unbearably adorable. Even worse, he has become Su Qianyi, the most hated ger prince of the Great Liang Empire. Born from an empress who died in childbirth, the original Su Qianyi was branded an evil star, a curse upon the dynasty. Abandoned by the emperor, despised by the princes, and left to rot in the Cold Palace, the child grew bitter and vicious, desperately craving love that would never come. But that child is gone. Now inhabiting his body is a former Mafia boss who knows one thing better than anyone else- power attracts danger, and families like this kill quietly. Unlike the original owner, this Su Qianyi has no interest in imperial affection. No desire for fatherly warmth. No need for brotherly bonds. The royal family disgusts him, and the Cold Palace? To him, it is the safest place in the empire. So he ignores the emperor. Avoids the princes. Instead, the palace witnesses something unthinkable- The once vicious ger prince is now laughing, running, causing chaos, climbing trees, stealing snacks, and dragging his only loyal servant into endless mischief. He drinks sweet soups, naps in the sun, and treats the Cold Palace like his personal territory. The court is baffled. The servants are terrified. The princes are suspicious. How did the "evil star" become so soft and harmless? Why does he smile when he should be scheming? And why does this child-who should be begging for imperial favor-act as if the entire royal family is irrelevant? But fate is never kind. As Su Qianyi grows, his presence will slowly disrupt the empire. Old grudges will surface. And somewhere within this cold, ruthless palace, someone will eventually look at the neglected ger prince and think- "I want him."

Two maids were cleaning a vast chamber when the younger maid asked the older one, "Didisa, you have been working in the palace for two decades right. Please tell me why are we cleaning this already clean chamber?". The older one smiled and said, "Although this chamber is always kept clean, it should be cleaned before anyone can reside here. And above all, our Ranisa is coming back to the palace". The younger maid didn't seem to accept it as a good news and said, "Whoever may come, but they cannot become equal to our choti Ranisa. She is the most kind, generous and sweetest person I have ever seen. She had never gotten angry on any maids even if they make mistakes. Take my example, I have made such a blunder on my first day here, but choti Ranisa accepted me as her own maid. Who can match her in kindness or even sword fight? And moreover she is Ranasa's heart beat". The old maid sighed and said, "Our Ranisa may not hold the heart of Ranasa. She may not be well versed in sword fight. But there is a reason why she is still our Ranisa. Sometimes one may have to be harsh to deliver justice and not just compromise between the victim and the tormentor. The people should have some fear about getting punished if they do wrong. And that charisma is with our Ranisa". ----------------------------------------------------------- A young girl of 17 years, looked at the retreating back of her newly married husband with a sad face. Just then her brother-in-law seated beside her husband's empty seat said, "Why are you sad, Bhabhisa?". She replied, "It's Nothing devarsa". He glanced back at his bhabhisa one more time and thought, "I don't know when bhaisa will open up with bhabhisa about his heart. She thinks that he is not fond of her. But how would one explain, why he ate the saltless food without a complaint and glared at me to keep my mouth shut. Unless it is for his beloved wife".

Mahnoor is a second-year history student. She is sharp-tongued, fiercely independent, and unafraid to speak her mind. Her latest coursework is on the lives of powerful figures who contributed to India's growth. That's when she discovers him. An emperor unlike any other who was undefeated in war, feared by rulers, praised by history, but still infamous for his cruelty. The deeper she reads about him, the more her hatred for him grows because it was very evident the textbooks tried to balance his brilliance by sugercoating his brutality, but to her, his name is soaked in blood. One afternoon, sitting in the library, she seethes to her friend, "Still. If one of those women had rebelled, her name would be in this book today. I'm angry that none tried to do so." "I wish I was there. I really do." "I would have said things everyone was scared to utter to his face. He wasn't feared because he was powerful, he was feared because people feared for their lives. And that is not power." "He won't be remembered because he was great, but because he did things no one could ever forget." That night, on a rain-soaked street in Mumbai, her car nearly hits an old woman crossing the road. When she gets down to confront her, the woman curses her. "So, you wish you were there? You think you could speak, rebel, and change history with your voice? Then go. Let's see how your voice will be heard in a palace where a woman's opinion holds no importance. Your freedom will crumble because rebellion there means death. Your name will rot with theirs and be forgotten and only then you will understand they too were not stupid. Go. I'll love to see how you make history remember you." The world spins and she finds herself in 1574, inside the emperor's harem, the very one she hated with every fiber of her being. She knows how his story ends. But this time, she's inside it. Will she become another silenced voice in his dark legacy or the one woman who dares to rewrite history?
