The Crown Prince of the Eastern Court was ambushed and nearly killed, left mute, lame, and crippled.
A kind young woman saved him, but instead of being grateful, he felt deeply humiliated.
Unable to speak, all he could do was glare and grumble inwardly day after day:
"Damn woman! How dare she feed me leftovers!"
"I am a noble son of the imperial house, high above all others. How can I wear these coarse clothes!"
"What! She wants to sell me to the chubby daughter of Widow Liu?"
"I'll kill her!"
.
Le Yang is an unpopular little princess of Chen. Her sisters bully her, her father dislikes her, and she was abandoned in the countryside, where she endured one lonely, desolate year after another.
Later, she came across an injured man. He had phoenix eyes and sharply arched brows, and even coarse clothes couldn't hide his bearing and elegance.
Le Yang thought everything about him was wonderful. He was obedient and never picky about food, and he didn't object when she tried to match him with Widow Liu's daughter. His eyes even blinked with delight.
So when the man left without saying goodbye, she was heartbroken for a long time.
.
After the Crown Prince returned to the palace, eating fine food and wearing silk robes, he began to miss the simple, plain life he'd left behind.
So he secretly returned to the countryside, only to see her wading into the river to catch fish for Scholar Li, picking flowers for him on the mountain, and making him laugh with delight.
Hidden nearby, the Crown Prince gritted his teeth. "That fickle woman!"
.
Later, the King of Chen brought the young woman back to the palace. She thought he had finally found his conscience, but it turned out he wanted to marry her off to the foolish son of a general.
On the wedding day, a steed raced forward, followed by tens of thousands of armored soldiers. At their head, a general in a silver helmet and armor stormed into the wedding hall and kicked the groom aside, then glared at the bride with a sinister expression.
"Come home with me."
