Shen Zhiwei was born as the eldest daughter of the Yongning Hou Mansion. Her biological mother died young, her father was partial and cold, her stepmother was cruel and vicious, and her concubine was arrogant and jealous. There was no place for her in such a huge Hou Mansion.
She had the honor of being a legitimate daughter, but she had nothing to eat and no clothes to cover her body. She grew up with cold eyes and harsh treatment, and had long since given up all thoughts of family ties.
A sudden marriage decree pointed her to the most powerful and feared man in Dajing - Prince Jing Xiao Jue.
He fought as a young man, held a large army, had a cold temperament, was not a womanizer, and made countless enemies in the court. This marriage was just a pawn to check and balance the imperial power.
On the wedding day, there was no joy or sorrow. On the night of the wedding, they made a cold agreement: everyone should be in their own place and not interfere with each other.
She thought that the rest of her life would be just to live in solitude with the false name of a princess, but she didn't expect that the gears of fate would then turn.
He saw her being wronged in the Hou Mansion and secretly protected her; he saw her excellent medical skills, intelligence and forbearance, and admired her; he saw her in danger, and he sacrificed his life to protect her.
She saw that he was suffering from old wounds on the battlefield and was unable to sleep late at night, so she took care of him; she saw his innocent heart under his aloofness and indifference, and was quietly moved; she saw that he was deeply involved in the vortex of power and intrigue, and she never left him.
From respecting each other like ice to respecting each other like guests, from testing each other to being devoted to each other, a marriage by decree will eventually become a pair for life.
She takes revenge on the Hou Mansion, clears up the injustice of her biological mother, and takes back everything that belongs to her;
He controlled the government and the opposition, put down rebellions, and protected her from danger for the rest of her life.
The legitimate daughter in the dust was finally lifted up to the clouds by the prince;
The ruthless king devoted all his tenderness to one person.
The most touching love in this world is to marry first and then fall in love. As time goes by, our love becomes deeper and deeper. You give me
