The male lead is ruthless and cruel, not a good person.
With a princess for a mother, a high minister for a father, five generations of high-ranking officials in her family, and a century-old noble clan behind her, Yuan Jing had thought that apart from her frail health, nothing in life could go wrong for her.
But after a long dream, she learned that her whole life had been nothing but a joke.
Although the Princess's Residence was harmonious for now, she knew that before long, her father would return from Lingnan with an illegitimate son three years older than her. His arrival would tear apart the happy facade of the household.
After that, her parents would turn against each other, her relatives would grow distant, and everything she had enjoyed in the first half of her life would slip away.
In the end, she would watch that illegitimate son overturn the Zhou Dynasty, step by step, and ascend to the throne.
After that came the nightmare of her life.
She had always known he hated her and her mother to the core, but she never imagined that one day he would take pleasure in humiliating her.
On the night of his coronation, in the rain, the man, smelling of alcohol, whispered in her ear like a demon: "Yuanyuan, you can't escape."
Pain turned to hatred.
After waking with a start, Yuan Jing looked out at the rain, just like the day she first met him, and suddenly felt boundless hope rise in her heart.
Fortunately, the illegitimate son had not yet come to the capital. She still had a chance to change everything.
She made up her mind that in this life, she would sever the tangled relationship between them from the very beginning.
And yet...
As she stepped out of her little courtyard, full of hope, she saw a figure both strange and familiar standing outside her father's study.
"Yuanyuan?" The man raised an eyebrow. "So you're my younger sister?"
That was a face she would never forget.
