Pei Yunshu, eldest legitimate daughter of the Yongning Marquis household, was descended from imperial merchants and had been named the crown prince's prospective bride by the late emperor.

The crown prince came to her home, only to scold her as a merchant's daughter unworthy of being crown princess. He trampled all over her ten years of devotion, seeking to strip her of her position as principal consort and install her white-lotus cousin in her place, leaving Pei Yunshu as nothing more than a side consort.

Three hundred thousand taels of disaster relief silver went to waste, while her mother's entire dowry was used to cover the marquis household's debts. In the end, even her own father pressured her to give way.

Since everyone looked down on her merchant origins, she would stake her entire fortune.

Xiao Jue, the Northern Frontier's dreaded god of war and regent, was the late emperor's youngest son and held power over the court. The crown prince avoided him at all costs, and he was now struggling with a shortage of military funds.

Pei Yunshu put down two hundred thousand taels of gold. "In exchange, I want the position of regent's consort."

Xiao Jue warned her coldly, "I have more enemies than you have silver."

She drained her strong liquor and slammed the cup down. "Perfect. I have enough silver to settle all your scores."
