kingdoms/royalty au where jc is the young unfavored prince to the jiang throne, and lxc is his childhood friend from the lan dukedom. four years ago, after the death of the duke qhj, the emperor sent lxc out to lead the sunshot campaign against the kingdom of qishan wen to
destroy and conquer. everyone knew what this act really meant. lxc had been gifted since young, talented both in scholarly matters and swordsmanship, and widely known for his handsome appearance. although his younger brother lwj was just as talented and beautiful, lxc had a way
with speaking to people that inspired hope and dreams into others, a mark of a talented leader. he was the pride of the lan dukedom, and that is why emperor chose him to punish the lans.

in the kingdom of ymj, a king is elected not by birthright exclusively but also through
merit. children of the imperial family all have the same chance of becoming king (regardless of whether they were born from the empress or a concubine).
wwx, the son of jfm's brother wcz and the infamous rogue sorceress cssr, is the most likely candidate for the throne.

since young he has an incredibly affinity to magic and is already more talented and inventive than most royal magic practitioners, someone with such strength would obviously gain the favor of the king and thus has been titled crown prince.
many nobles have been scrambling ever since for the crown prince's favor, giving all their support to wwx, except for the most notable family in the kingdom that can even rival the imperial jiangs.

lqr, acting head of the lan dukedom, has always argued and insisted that jc, son
of the empress (yzy who is the head magician of the msy magic tower) should hold the title of crown prince and one day succeed the throne. no other noble but the lans would ever dare to do such a thing, but with the lan's powerful background and ancestry being even older than
the empire, lqr had been free to support jc. that is, of course, until qhj had been found assassinated in the duke mansion and two weeks later jc had been poisoned only to wake up with his magic gone.
such two tragic events led to disorder and the lan family was currently in
such two tragic events led to disorder and the lan family was currently in
shambles and rapidly losing their connections along with internal strife. there was no head duke, lxc was underage to take the title and the murder of qhj had to be an inside affair.
jfm saw his chance to strike while the dukedom was suffering.
jfm saw his chance to strike while the dukedom was suffering.
disguised as an opportunity to bring honor to the lan name, by sending the young heir into war with so few battle troops, it was nothing but a death sentence and a warning to those remaining of the lan dukedom.
the wens were a vicious opponent and young lxc was expected to die
the wens were a vicious opponent and young lxc was expected to die
a gruesome death.
except now four years have passed, and the kingdom has received the message that lxc and his army will be returning back home victorious. wrh has been slaughtered and his sons taken back as prisoners. the wen kingdom has surrendered and lxc brought fame to his name.
