On the day Shen Zhaoning's engagement was annulled, all the dignitaries in Beijing were waiting for her to bow her head in the Pei Family Flower Hall.
Her fiancé thought she was powerless, her stepsister was wearing her wedding dress, and even her own father made her accept her fate. Holding half a cup of cold tea, she only thought of one sentence in her mind: The Pei family's fake military exploits still dare to annul my engagement. Don't kneel down too ugly when the house is ransacked in three days.
The whole hall suddenly fell silent.
From that moment on, everyone who could hear her voice panicked. Some people are afraid that she will reveal old accounts of corruption, some are afraid that she will reveal the truth about the exchange of children, and some are afraid that she will reveal the murder case in the palace. The sick and powerful minister Xie Xuanheng was the only one who dared to stand beside her. He heard her scolding him for his short life, and he also heard her unraveling the deadlock in the capital time and time again.
Everyone thought she was favored based on her voice, but later they discovered that every word she let them hear was a trap.
