Princess Si Qing is the most esteemed royal daughter in the capital, outranking all the princes and princesses.
She studied under the Crown Prince's tutor from childhood and watched the emperor handle state affairs in the Diligence Hall. The emperor always raised her as if she were a prince.
The princess could never understand what made the sickly, weak Crown Prince she'd always looked down on worthy of the position, apart from his legitimate claim to it.
She had bullied her useless younger brother plenty since childhood.
But this useless younger brother turned out to be the one person in her life she had been most wrong about.
In the end, the princess lost. She was imprisoned in the palace and made his imperial consort.
He was humiliating her. It was utterly absurd!
The court officials knew that he never let a grudge go unanswered, and that imprisoning his own elder sister in the palace was outrageous. But they could do nothing about the new emperor.
After all these years of giving their all to support the legitimate heir born of the empress, they had actually raised a vicious wolf.
Deep in the palace, the new emperor holds up the imperial jade seal and presents it to the princess. His eyes are dark and unreadable, yet full of love. "You want power, sister? Here it is. You want a puppet? I'll be one. Sister, look at me."
