The Adorable Prince's Cold Rebellion

The Adorable Prince's Cold Rebellion
In the heart of the Great Xuan Dynasty's imperial palace lies the Cold Palace, a place of exile and forgotten souls. Among them is Prince Rong Xuan, the sixth prince, abandoned and left to waste away after his mother, the Empress, died mysteriously. Once a timid child begging for love, a new soul awakens within him, replacing desperation with cold indifference. This adorable, seemingly fragile child is no longer seeking validation but is determined to carve his own path, even if it means defying the entire imperial family. When his sharp wit and unbothered demeanor begin to ripple through the palace, even reaching the ears of the powerful Emperor and the formidable Crown Prince Li Yuan, the forgotten little prince becomes an enigma, a delicate flower with hidden thorns, capable of silencing banquets and earning the respect of hardened generals. But as his presence disrupts the stagnant court and draws unwanted attention, will his quiet rebellion lead to his downfall or reveal the true power of a prince who has nothing left to lose?

The dim candlelight flickered as a soft breeze blew through the open windows of the Cold Palace. The scent of damp wood and old parchment lingered in the air, mixing with the faint aroma of herbal medicine.

A small figure lay motionless on an old, wooden bed, his tiny body curled up beneath a thin blanket. His skin was deathly pale, his lips dry and cracked, as if life itself had abandoned him.

Inside this frail body, a new soul stirred. Where... am I?
