Imprisoned in the Inner Chambers: I Can't Escape the Scheming Prince

【Clear-headed, cool and aloof concubine-born daughter × ruthless yet devoted prince】 (An alternate world, both leads are inexperienced, not a domineering heroine, powerful man bows to love) Shen Zhiyun was confined to the inner quarters for twelve years, suffering beatings and torment at the hands of Madam Shen. In the capital, it was as if she did not exist. Though surrounded by darkness, she grew like a weed between stones, desperately hoping to escape her tormentors one day and avenge herself and her late mother. The first time she left the Shen residence, she seized her chance and barged into a strange man's room. “Please, Heir, take pity on me!” She had hoped to secure a powerful patron and escape the Shen family. Instead, she mistook the man and climbed into the wrong bed, provoking someone she should never have crossed. Shen Zhiyun fled in a panic, vanishing without a trace. Everyone knew Prince Yi, Qi Heng, was a fearsome man who kept his distance from women. Yet a little wildcat with hidden claws had completely conquered him, then disappeared without a trace once she got what she wanted. Having tasted such pleasures, Qi Heng went mad thinking of her night after night! “What? You’re pretending you don’t know me now? You slept with me and won’t take responsibility?” … After losing control again and again, Qi Heng’s eyes finally reddened. “You never loved me, did you? Is it really so hard to love me, just a little?”
