[Disgraced noblewoman vs. the imperial court's national preceptor] [Two wounded souls saving each other]
Shen Qingge served Shangguan Yu for three years, acting as both a spy and an adviser.
Reborn, she no longer wants to be a puppet in someone else's hands.
“I am here by imperial decree to serve as a courtesan!”
One painting, Misty Rain Over Guangling,
and from then on, Jinse, the courtesan of Chunhua House, became national preceptor Ji Yunzhen's “kept woman.”
In Shen Qingge's eyes, Ji Yunzhen was a strange stone hidden in a frigid pool. She only wanted to use him as a fake protector and a source of gossip.
But he descended from his lofty perch and pursued her relentlessly.
“Miss Shen, you've made quite a bit of money using me, haven't you? How are you going to pay me back?”
Ji Yunzhen cornered Shen Qingge, his face cold.
“I'll pay you back, and I'll give you two more pieces of news!”
Shen Qingge swallowed nervously. She hadn't expected Zhao Yihuan to sell her out.
“Hah! I don't need that little bit of money from you, unless...”
“Unless what?” Shen Qingge smiled, her eyes darting away.
“You'll pay me back with yourself!” Ji Yunzhen lowered his eyes and whispered in her ear, his gaze flashing with certainty that she would be his.
