Gongsun Jiuguan was a concubine-born daughter, locked in a dark room by her stepmother from childhood, tortured day after day and whipped month after month! As if that weren't enough, her wicked half-sister schemed to send her to the borderlands to accompany a prince in death!
How could she agree? But her mother and brother were in someone else's hands. Heaven wouldn't answer her, and earth wouldn't help her!
So be it. Fifteen years of life was enough! She'd die and start over from the start. Surely, she'd have a good life in her next one!
Who could have guessed that the supposedly dead prince would come back to life, and that she'd spend a night with him?
From then on, he was drunk on her tender charms, murmuring the sweetest words: "Don't cry, Jiu'er. Your husband is always gentle with you."
When he learned of her past, he cherished her like his own life and helped her take revenge. "Don't be afraid, my Jiu'er. Do as you please. I'll be right behind you, and no one will dare hurt you! Even if heaven and earth turn upside down, your husband will take care of it!"
But she had no desire to be anyone's wife, and that left the prince at his wits' end!
I don't know what to write, okay?
