The Shen family was falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy, and the whole family was in danger. The legitimate daughter Shen Zhiwei was forced to accept the order and marry the powerful and cold-blooded ascetic regent Xiao Jinhan. On the day of the wedding, Shili Hongzhuang shocked the capital, but the groom was absent from the entire wedding and never set foot in the palace. Shen Zhiwei wore her wedding dress and sat on her knees in the empty wedding room all night, becoming the laughing stock of the entire capital. The next day, she was not summoned by the prince, but was sent directly to Suiyuyuan, the most dilapidated and cold place in the prince's palace. Her food, clothing, charcoal and fire allowance were all deprived of her, and she was reduced to an abandoned concubine that could be bullied by all the servants. Late at night, Shen Zhiwei took out the hidden poisonous silver needle, calmly wiped away the last trace of hope from his eyes, and officially started the road of forbearance and dormancy.
