Palace Slave: The Captive Flower

Synopsis

Palace Slave: The Captive Flower Chapter 35 has been released. As midnight shadows creep through the crumbling halls of Kozui's royal palace, Setsurin cowers behind the silk curtains, the whispered rumors still fresh in her mind: a brutal attempt to assassinate Crown Prince Ji Senken left him shattered and near death. Her own desperate gamble saved his life – but at what cost? Abandoning her noble name and fleeing her home, she assumed the disguise of a lowly palace slave six long winters ago. Now, scrubbing floors and hiding secrets beneath the very same gilded roofs where royalty once laughed and dined. The scent of jasmine wafts down corridors when Ji Senken finally sets foot back within these sacrosanct walls, weary eyes scanning every recessed doorway for familiar faces – though none can dispel the chill which lies unspoken.
