I am Chen Qing, a death row inmate on the death row of the Ministry of Punishment.
On the eve of the execution, someone transferred me to be the prince and put me on the execution ground. The real prince ran away, and I was the one who got stabbed.
The moment before the knife fell, the Queen Mother hit the pillar and remonstrated, and I saved my life. From then on, I lived in the East Palace as the prince.
Everyone in the court regarded me as useless: the imperial concubine put spies in my house, the second prince tested my homework in public, the crown princess tried all kinds of tricks to test me, and even the Ministry of Punishment dared to come to check me in the middle of the night.
They didn't know that the more I was looked down upon, the more confident I became.
Be ridiculed and gain reputation; be despised and gain strength. Pharmacology, criminal names, classic meanings, accounting, everything can be exchanged for reputation.
So please continue to look down on me. Every time you laugh at me, you are recharging me.
I save the prince's life, investigate corrupt officials for the prince, pay tribute to the prince for the prince, and block the sword for the prince.
When my reputation reaches its peak, I will take the throne for the prince.
