With the red candle burning high, Shen Zhiyi lifted the hijab and saw not the handsome face of the prince, but Xiao Jingheng, whose engagement she had broken off in public three years ago - the regent who now wields great power.
"Miss Shen, you are well." The man pinched her chin with his cold fingers, "Back then you said you would rather die than marry me. Now, you are not even qualified to die."
A conspiracy to change the sedan chair sent the proud prime minister's daughter to hell. She was imprisoned in the most remote courtyard of the palace and became the "prison concubine" who could be bullied by everyone. And all this stems from the divorce breakup three years ago.
When the entire Shen family was framed by the prince, but she survived because of her status as "princess", Shen Zhiyi finally understood: to take revenge, she must first bow to the man who hates her to the core. She lost her pride and learned to be tolerant, but she discovered in repeated confrontations that the secret room of Xiao Jingheng's study contained every item she had lost when she was a girl.
It turns out that the deepest hatred hides the most painful love. When the truth was revealed, she raised the knife towards her: "Xiao Jingheng, do you want me or the world?" The man held the blade, blood dripping from his hand: "I made the choice three years ago, you didn't want me."
From a prison concubine to the real mistress of the Regent's Palace, from revenge to redemption, this wrong marriage finally became a destined marriage.
