[The hit drama adaptation, A Decade of Tribulation, is now streaming!] The day Xiao Yanli came to ask for my hand, I unexpectedly spoke with my future self, ten years from now.
She told me Xiao Yanli loved my maid, Shuangning, and warned me not to marry him, or the entire prince’s household would die a gruesome death.
Naturally, I didn’t believe her.
But when Xiao Yanli abandoned me in a moment of danger to save Shuangning, I finally understood.
All the care he had shown me was a lie. He had only wanted to use the prince’s household and its influence.
I broke off the engagement, giving Xiao Yanli and Shuangning their happy ending.
But later, that handsome scholar, whose looks were as striking as jade and who had passed the highest imperial examination, nearly fainted from kneeling outside the prince’s residence, all just to see me once.
