On the wedding night, Fu Yanshen pinched my chin and sneered:
"You are just a piece on my chessboard. If you stay calm, you may be able to live longer."
I kept my eyebrows low and acted as a perfect regent for three years.
Take care of the palace for him, deal with the harem for him, and even block deadly poisonous arrows for him.
It wasn't until I was seven months pregnant that I heard with my own ears outside his study:
"She and the child in her belly are both pawns. When the deed is done, leave the child to the mother."
That night, I burned all the clothes and jewelry he gave me.
He took his unborn child and disappeared into the heavy rain in the capital.
Three years later, "Mrs. Bai", the richest man in Jiangnan, became famous all over the world.
During a palace banquet, my veil accidentally slipped.
Everyone was shocked. Fu Yanshen stood up suddenly on the dragon chair and knocked over the Kowloon cup.
He pushed me against the wall with red eyes: "I have been looking for you for a thousand days and nights..."
I chuckled and pushed away: "Your Majesty has recognized the wrong person. The girl is the merchant Bai Shi."
Behind him, a pair of lovely children of Yuxue poked their heads out:
"Mom, who is this uncle?"
Later, he trampled on the thirty-six states in the south of the Yangtze River and knelt outside my house for three days and three nights.
He said hoarsely: "Tumi, I will give you my life, but you can look at me again, okay?"
——But Fu Yanshen didn't know that I came back this time to exchange his thousands of miles of land for my son's stability.
