Fake Prince

In the twelfth year of the Tianyun era, the capital city fell, causing members of the royal family to scatter. Fourteen years later, under the iron-fisted rule of the new emperor, the chaotic Great Zhou dynasty finally regained peace.​ At this time, a young man named Fu Ye travels a great distance to the capital, claiming to be the emperor’s long-lost younger brother, the sixth prince who was lost years ago. His sudden appearance shocks the court.​ Fu Ye kneels in the grand hall, looking up to meet the emperor’s sharp, cold gaze. Remembering that in the original story, the impostor who claimed this identity was beheaded and his head displayed on the city gate for three years, Fu Ye trembles with fear.​ Now, he faces the challenge of convincingly posing as the emperor’s brother under the tyrant’s watchful eyes to survive. In response, he faints directly at the emperor’s feet.
