Beneath The Golden Sky
In the grand empire of Tianxia, where the rich prosper and the poor serve, young Li Wei grows up in servitude alongside his mother in the estate of a powerful noble. Dreaming of a life beyond the stone walls of his master's home, he finds solace in his childhood friend, Chen Mu, a fellow servant who promises to always stand by his side.
But promises are fragile things. When an opportunity arises, Chen Mu betrays Wei in a desperate attempt to climb the ranks of society, leaving him abandoned and disgraced. Heartbroken and cast out, Wei is forced to forge his own path, determined to reclaim his dignity and carve out a destiny beyond the chains of servitude.
Fate, however, is not done with him. As he crosses paths with Zhao Lian, the aloof and enigmatic youngest son of the noble household, their fates become entangled in a web of power, ambition, and forbidden emotions. In a world where trust is dangerous and love is a luxury, can Li Wei rise above his past—and will he ever be able to forgive the boy who once meant everything to him?
