The year she married, her husband’s widowed sister-in-law arrived with her son, seeking shelter.
She was foolish enough to believe that she and her husband had always maintained a relationship of affection tempered by propriety.
She devoted herself to serving her mother-in-law, sent her sister-in-law’s son to the best academy in the capital, and helped her husband fight for power at court!

With that, the young man swept her into his arms...
Afterward, he blushed and looked at Yin Liluo. “Princess, you have to take responsibility for me...”
