She was the humblest concubine in the Shangshu Mansion, her biological mother was a forced maid, and she died of depression when she was three years old. The entire mansion regarded her as nothing, except the eldest sister Shen Qingwan, who was the only light in her gloomy life. She is willing to be her eldest sister's "follower", learning medicine and literacy from her eldest sister, seeking warmth in the cracks.
Until that day, the eldest sister disappeared out of thin air - and later she found out that the eldest sister had eloped with a doctor from Tai Hospital. But before she had time to digest the betrayal and worry, an imperial edict came to the Shangshu Mansion: the emperor granted marriage to the five princes, and the marriage was to be completed on a selected day.
The fifth prince Xiao Heng, once the God of War with amazing talent and beauty, broke his legs on the battlefield three years ago. Since then, he has given up on himself and wandered around brothels and restaurants, becoming the biggest joke in the capital. In order to make him "attract his heart", the emperor forcibly granted him a marriage. The Shangshu Mansion did not dare to let their legitimate daughter marry a useless person, and they did not dare to offend the prince who was standing in line. Therefore, they thought of the usually silent concubine - Shen Qingci.
