Under the Deep Blue Sky (Lay X OC) (Red String of Fate Series #1)
Description
Zhang Yixing is the crown prince of the Mongols, who have been overthrown from their once prosperous Yuan dynasty by the Ming dynasty. He is young, handsome, and talented, yet refuses to get married for a reason he has hidden deep in his heart. Xu Feiyan is the second eldest princess of the Ming royal family, skilled in everything from the medicinal arts to dance to painting. A single visit from the Mongol Khan and his sons brings these two royal children together, and something about Feiyan strikes a chord in Yixing's heart. When their fathers arrange a political marriage between them, both can't be more against it, but neither have a choice in the matter. Will Feiyan be able to find her place among the Mongols? And more importantly, will she be able to untie the knot that has existed in Yixing's heart for five years and help him become one of the best rulers the Mongols have ever seen?
Foreword
Characters:
-Xu Feiyan: Second princess of the Ming royal family, 16 years old. She is talented, headstrong, and stubborn. She is forced into a political marriage to the Mongols against her will.
-Zhang Yixing: Crown prince and later ruler of the Mongols, 18 years old. He detests anything that has to do with the Ming empire, though his reasons aren't entirely political.
-Zhang Yifan: Yixing's older half brother, 21 years old. He acts as a source of support for Yixing and often guides him through difficult situations.
-Zhang Yizhong: Yixing's baby brother, 14 years old. He and Yixing are both sons of the former queen of the Mongols. After their mother died when Yizhong was a baby, Yixing practically raised his baby brother himself. Yizhong is sweet, innocent, and fiercely loyal to Yixing.
-Luhan: Yixing's younger half brother, 16 years old. His mother is a commoner that their father the Khan fell in love with while taking a journey around the Mongol territory, and so he is only half royal. Despite that, the Khan gave him a high position in the military, and Luhan works his hardest to protect his family and his country.
-Zhang Yilong: The eldest son of the Khan, 23 years old. He has an ambitious heart and intends to take both the throne and Feiyan as his own.
-Xu Tianjun: Feiyan's beloved older brother, 21 years old. He babies Feiyan and is determined to ensure her safety in everything.
Author's note: I know Kris's real last name is Wu, but for consistency, I have changed it to Zhang. Also, as a reference, Yizhong is modeled off of EXO's Kai.
