Every noblewoman in Shangjing knew that the Nineteenth Prince had a demon’s face, was afflicted with a deadly poison, and didn’t have long to live. But the royal family had issued an order, so everyone waited in fear, terrified he might choose them.
When they heard that his choice was Su Qiao, who had been sent away to grow up in the countryside and had appallingly crude manners, the noblewomen who disliked her couldn’t help gloating. They looked forward to seeing her become a widow, mocked and mistreated, living out her life in misery and isolation.
They waited and waited, until the Nineteenth Prince was made Regent and gained power over the entire court. They waited until they were trembling at Su Qiao’s feet, while the prince removed his golden mask to reveal a face as lovely as fine jade, his tenderness reserved for Su Qiao alone.
It looks good(๑`･ᴗ･´๑)
