When he was ten, the young Prince Lie already loved Motai Lan, the Grand Tutor's daughter. She was only six that year, but Prince Lie declared imperiously, "Lan'er, when you grow up, I will marry you. You are not allowed to marry anyone else."
Six-year-old Motai Lan liked the dashing Prince Lie, too. She pouted fiercely and told him, "Big Brother Prince Lie, when I grow up, I will marry you. You are not allowed to marry another woman."
When they grew up, they did indeed marry. But without their parents' blessing or a matchmaker's arrangement, she did not know who he was, and he did not know who she was. The people of the capital either mocked them or schemed to drive her away from his side.
By the time they learned each other's true identities, they had already hurt each other and grown resentful.
Prince Lie kept his word at any cost. He even gave up his claim to the throne so he could marry Motai Lan and no one else.
As a prince, how easy could it be to marry only one woman? Yet Prince Lie managed it, and spoiled Motai Lan like a princess.
Everyone called Motai Lan a wicked consort and said she would ruin Prince Lie's life. Little did they know that she would later win him an emperor's throne.
