From prophecies to scheming politicians and Ladies within the Palace, this story is very amazing, you get involved into all machinations and never have I seen the most beautiful display of strong and powerful characters you fall in love with from the very beginning every moment feels self lived and real with every page and dialogue you read it is a true masterpiece 🥰

By far the most remarkable historical novel I have read that deals with Palace life and politics, I was initiated into the plot from the very beginning when I witnessed some of the most drastic and remarkable schemes in the Imperial Court, I have fallen so much in love with the antagonist and characters feel too deep with the most wonderful display of their feelings being direct, there's a great contrast that makes you want to keep reading over and over again and in particular makes this my favourite so far.

       If you are reading this book then I am very grateful that you have it in your possession or on your screen.     

       This book is loosely based on a true story following Historical Accounts set in Imperial China between the years 1162 to 1233 and the course of events in the series are somewhat fictionalized and for purposes of drama only so for any offensive roles allow me to apologise in advance.

        All ceremonies conducted are a part of my imagination as this story is an Asian original and so are most of the dialogues involved within it though some are modelled on the accounts of history and entirely while making this story I have tried to stick to the real pattern of Historical accounts much as I could have had some shortcomings.

      Some of the characters are original as well and this story is an idealised and fantasized portrayal of Palace politics and marriage to Harem fights which gives off the impressions of gore, greed, hate, jealousy, scheming men and women and also murder and power hunger as some events have been exaggerated but try to remain close to the truth nonetheless it's not intended to promote any particularly cruel or inhumane behaviour but rather created for entertainment.

       I am happy once again for your support in taking this story of mine into consideration and allowing me to show you my world and also continue cautioning you that if you are not a fan of what I have mentioned above then I can't promise that you'll enjoy the story yet so if you are bent on going on to look into it's pages and read it I hope you can keep up the courage.

        This book is not for readers under the ages of 15 and it contains both mild and severe, violence along with some mature situations so anyone who chooses to read it falling in the class exclusive does so at their own risk.

        Any of the events that are familiar to real life instances are completely coincidental and short of my knowledge as I do hope that you enjoy this story, share it and support it as well just as I do but if unable to bear the characters or line of the story and looking for something good and restrained from murder then I'd advise you to look for another story that could suit those appetites.

Yours Sincerely,
