My mother is a bell girl, and she tried every means to support my father's education for the sake of love. For the sake of my father's future, my mother was coaxed to go to the palace for a whole night. It snowed heavily that day, and her body was dumped on the snow the next day. A month later, the current princess Shili Hongzhuang married my father. And I, a bastard with no name or status, was sold to the meanest brothel that day. Five years later they were kneeling in front of me, crying and begging for mercy. I laughed, "Why weren't you willing to spare my mother's life when she screamed?"
