Pure by Vow, Bound by Fate

After transmigrating into ancient times, Lin Shuyi is forced to carry out a dangerous mission—to break the ascetic vow of Emperor Chu Lin. Years ago, the King of Qi secretly murdered the late emperor and now controls the court from the shadows. To conceal his ambition and lower his uncle’s guard, Chu Lin retreats from power under the guise of spiritual cultivation, quietly building strength in secret. Unaware of the hidden power struggle, the Empress Dowager believes Chu Lin’s devotion must be shattered to bring him back to politics, and sends Lin Shuyi to awaken his suppressed worldly desires. But Lin Shuyi’s arrival disrupts a fragile balance, where vows clash with fate, and a single stirred heart could decide the destiny of an empire.
