[The sinister and crazy criticizing the prince × the smart and tolerant slave]
All members of the Zhenbei General Mansion were convicted. The legitimate daughter Ye Sanniang fell from the clouds into the mud and became a palace slave. She was assigned to the Shangyi Square and whipped day and night.
The third prince, Qin Fu, passed by and rescued the dying woman from the whip, and brought her into the palace to raise her.
Others only thought that he was temporarily soft-hearted and took in the daughter of a criminal.
Only he understood that her intelligence and forbearance had already become his most stable move on the road to seizing the throne.
She dealt with courtiers for him, delivered news, and paved the way for him with all her talents; he gave her a place to stay, protected her, settled accounts, and owed no one to anyone.
She thought it was just mutual use, but it wasn't until he personally avenged her family that she became upset.
On the day of the coronation ceremony, the truth was revealed - her brother had already died in his plan, and she was just the most obedient pawn on his way to power.
Under the corridor of the old palace, the raindrops knocked on the lantern in the corner of the corridor.
He handed her a cup of tea. The moment their fingertips touched, she suddenly looked up: "Qin Fu, why did you save me in the first place?"
He didn't say anything, just handed another glass.
She drank it all with a smile, and her internal organs suddenly hurt. It turned out that he had no intention of keeping her from the beginning.
