Synopsis
Within the palace walls, she is the Second Princess, hiding her sharp edge while secretly making poisons for medicinal purposes. Outside the palace, he is an assassin carrying the blood debt of his family’s massacre, living under a false name and searching for his lost sister.
At a palace banquet, a masked figure from the past returns—but the tattoo on his back has been erased. Is he the mountain boy she met six years ago? Is she his long-lost sister? The jade pendant and the tattoo point to a shocking conspiracy.
Power struggles, swapped identities, and a bloody feud spanning two generations eventually ignite a desperate counterattack. From missing each other to truly knowing and loving each other, the princess and the young man carve out a path of redemption amid the clash between power schemes and true feelings.
