They met when they were young and fell in love with each other at the royal banquet. Xiao Jingyuan put Mu Ninghua in his heart and doted on her.
On rainy and snowy days, he sent people to pick her up and searched all over the world to collect her favorite calligraphy, painting and cakes. In the court, whenever someone criticized the Mu family, he stood up to protect her every time. It was known throughout the city that the third prince cared about the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter.
Mu Ninghua indulges in tenderness and looks forward to her marriage with all her heart, thinking that she will be stable and in love forever in the future.
The storm of seizing the direct descendants suddenly arose, and political opponents forged evidence to frame the Prime Minister's office as collaborating with the enemy and treason.
In order to protect the latent forces and confuse his opponents, Xiao Jingyuan chose to pretend to be ruthless.
She rejected the engagement in public, used hurtful words, distanced herself from others, and allowed rumors to trap her in criticism.
Hopes and disappointments time and time again, His Highness's former full heart gradually turned into a biting coldness.
By the time he cleared the obstacles and took the imperial power to make amends, Mu Ninghua had already withdrawn coldly and stayed away from the capital.
It was true that he was full of preference in his heart, but it was also true that he was filled with chills in his heart. For the rest of his life, he held a high position, leaving only endless lovesickness and regret.
