Number One in Palace Schemes, Dead Last in Household Schemes

Song Keke had a face so beautiful it could topple kingdoms, but she was a concubine-born daughter of the Song family. She was also terrible with words and couldn't argue, so she always lost when she fought with her sisters. Only after she got home would she think of what she should have said, and then it was too late for regrets.

One day, she found a badly wounded man in the back kitchen.

He seemed kind and clever, so Song Keke rescued him and made him her good friend.

She asked him, “What do you do if your older and younger brothers bully you?”

The newly enthroned emperor Zou Xun, who had just killed his own elder brother to seize the throne, was an expert on this very subject.

Qiu Xun: “Thanks for asking. I usually turn them into bean paste.”

Overnight, the fourth young lady of the Song family, who had been the worst at arguing, became incredibly quick-witted. No matter who she argued with, she could make them burst into tears.

No one knew what had happened.

Until one day, an imperial phoenix carriage stopped outside the Song residence.

A handsome man dressed in imperial yellow stepped down from it and pleaded softly, “Still angry? Don't be.”

“Then promise you won't make me hurt like that again.”

“Mm. I promise.”
