Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This was certainly not the life that she dreamed of back in her village.Princess Hua's days are long in the Imperial Palace of Chang'an, which she fills by reading, sculpting, and playing ball with little Xiaosheng (her only bright light).Ten years ago, she wanted nothing more than to be offered as a gift to the Han family. But now? The palace was just as boring and wearying as back there. And sadly, Prince Qian, who she had a crush on from afar, is more like a brother than a husband.Unexpectedly, the emperor decrees that she and her husband will be envoys to that other empire far to the west. At last! An escape from these oppressive walls! The outside world with all its wonders beckons!Now, their guides from the West did warn them that this journey is not without its perils. She doesn't care. She's ready! Anything would be better than this.Enter the worlds of Ancient China and Rome, where Princess Hua will face a much greater danger at her destination: Love.
