As soon as Shen Hanyue opened her eyes, she traveled to the Great Zhou Dynasty and became the substitute daughter-in-law introduced by the Shen family to ward off disasters.
The stepmother was reluctant to let her own daughter enter the murderous palace, but the biological father Shen Boyong coldly acquiesced. A marriage certificate sent her to the deep palace to marry the ruthless and suspicious emperor Xiao Jingrui.
The red candles of the wedding were swaying, and the chill was biting in the wedding tent.
The moment the sharp blade touched the side of his neck, Shen Hanyue could clearly see the black mist that enveloped the emperor - it was an undisguised murderous intention.
Everyone in the harem wanted to please him and live by the king's mercy.
But she knew in her heart that kneeling down and begging for mercy would only lead to faster death.
"If Your Majesty wants to kill me, why go to all this trouble. Keeping me is far more cost-effective than taking my life."
Possessing the ability to see the emotions of others, she seeks a way out in the dangerous palace.
The arrogant imperial concubine is eyeing her, the factions in the court are undercurrent, and the Shen Mansion, far outside the palace, is still trying to manipulate her as a pawn.
She never expected the king's favor, she just wanted to hold on to her own bargaining chip and escape the fate of being at the mercy of others.
But the man who was full of murderous intentions on the wedding night had his eyes firmly locked on her little by little.
