Beneath the Moonlit Veil
In the wake of a corrupt regime’s collapse, the newly established Zheng Dynasty (正朝) strives to bring order to a realm fraught with hidden dangers and mystical forces. The capital city, Yuecheng (月城), becomes the center of a delicate dance between political intrigue, ancient prophecies, and forbidden love.
Crown Imperial Prince Liang Fengxian(梁风贤) is a man bound by duty and honor. To secure the loyalty of a powerful noble family, he is wed to the graceful and intelligent Lady Qin Yue (秦月). Yet, beneath the surface of this arranged union lies a prophecy foretelling that the royal bloodline will be undone by a love that defies all order.
During their wedding festivities, Fengxian encounters Qin Yuan(秦元), Qin Yue’s younger brother—a brilliant scholar with an affinity for ancient magic and an enigmatic presence that draws the prince’s attention. What begins as a fascination with Qin Yuan’s intellect and unique abilities soon evolves into something deeper, more dangerous. As their bond grows, Fengxian is torn between his duty to the dynasty, his loyalty to his new wife, and an undeniable attraction that could spell ruin for them all.
Unknown to many, Qin Yuan carries a secret: he is the reincarnation of a celestial being whose powers are awakening with each passing day. He holds the key to the prophecy and possesses the ability to control forces that could either save or doom the dynasty.
As Qin Yuan and Fengxian delve into the mystery of the Phoenix Heart (凤心), a powerful magical artifact hidden in the royal palace, they uncover a hidden war waged by the Order of the Jade Lotus (玉莲会), a clandestine group of sorcerers who seek to manipulate the prophecy for their own dark purposes. With mystical creatures roaming the Forbidden Forest of Lanxing (蓝星林) and secrets buried in ancient temples, the prince and the celestial scholar must navigate a world where love is a dangerous gamble, and betrayal lurks at every corner.
As their passion deepens, their secret love affair becomes the center of a storm that threatens to tear apart the fragile balance of power within the dynasty. Caught between their desires and their duties, they must decide whether to risk everything for a love that could destroy them or forge a path that might save their world from the brink of chaos.
Beneath the Moonlit Veil is a tale of forbidden love, destiny, and the struggle to find one’s place in a world where mortal and celestial fates intertwine.
