On the day of the wedding, Shen Qingci tore up the marriage decree and said, "Your Highness, King Chen, I cancel this marriage."
Amid the uproar throughout the city, she was weak and coughing up blood: "I'm dying soon, how dare you delay the prince?"
Xiao Jingheng shook his fan and smiled softly: "It doesn't matter, I specialize in treating all kinds of people who are destined to die soon."
So the whole capital watched as Miss Shen, who was said to not survive the spring, was "invited" to the palace to recuperate. Today she helped the Ministry of Punishment solve strange cases, the next day she helped the Ministry of Household Affairs investigate embezzlement, and the day after tomorrow she uncovered the secret work of the enemy.
Only Xiao Jingheng knew that whenever he, as the leader of the "Shadow Pavilion", purchased secrets from the intelligence organization "Tingyu Tower", the voice of the mysterious owner opposite sounded like his "sick" fiancée.
Until the rainy night, two masked people met in the secret room.
He took off his mask and said, "The poster has good tricks."
She slowly raised her head: "... My lord, what a coincidence."
"Unfortunately," Xiao Jingheng took a step closer, "I have been looking for the owner of Tingyu Tower for three years just to ask a question——"
"Miss Shen, since you want to break off the engagement, why do you always help me secretly?"
Shen Qingci smiled and backed away: "Professional ethics, customers first."
"What if the customer wants to buy you for life?"
"Sorry," she showed the short blade hidden in her sleeve, "This product is not for sale at the moment."
This is a story about how the two drama stars went from scheming against each other to teaming up to stir up trouble.
Power and intrigue serve as the tactic, and deep love serves as the bait. See how the cunning fox princess and the sinister prince go through the turbulent court.
