Coming soon
As soon as Xie Qinghe entered the palace, she was set up and chosen as a maid to “serve” the Eldest Princess.
Eldest Princess Song Changyu was mercurial, and had grown even more cruel and tyrannical since being stripped of power and placed under house arrest.
The night before Xie Qinghe entered the palace, two palace maids had just been carried out of the princess's residence, covered with white cloth.
On the night she entered the Eldest Princess's residence, the sharp hairpin hidden on Xie Qinghe was discovered.
Her arms were bound behind her back, and she was dragged before the Eldest Princess.
The moment she looked up, Xie Qinghe froze.
Amid layers of curtains, a stunning beauty lounged with one arm propping her up, revealing a broad expanse of pale skin. Her eyes were alluring as she cast Xie Qinghe a lazy glance.
At that single glance, Xie Qinghe's heart pounded like a drum.
[The Eldest Princess is so beautiful. The things people say about her must be slander.]
[Does the Eldest Princess need me to serve her tonight? I heard she kills anyone who serves her...]
[Never mind. If I have to die, I'll die beneath the peonies. Even in death, I'll have lived a life of passion!]
The Eldest Princess froze.
She beckoned gently to the person kneeling below and said, “Come here.”
Xie Qinghe walked over nervously, then knelt again, sneaking a glance at the Eldest Princess.
[What does it cost to serve the Eldest Princess? Would all my savings be enough?]
The Eldest Princess couldn't help bursting into laughter. She waved her hand and ordered the maids to leave, telling them they didn't need to cover Xie Qinghe with a white cloth and carry her out.
Everyone wanted her dead, but this girl only wanted to serve her.
What harm could she possibly mean?
Somehow, Xie Qinghe escaped disaster and stayed at the princess's residence.
Every day, she stayed by the Eldest Princess's side, coaxing the beauty with all kinds of sweet talk and giving her half the money she had saved over the years.
All for the chance to serve her for one night.
But the Eldest Princess met her advances with neither warmth nor coldness, as if she didn't notice them at all. Those eyes that could entrance all living beings remained indifferent from beginning to end.
After grieving for a while, Xie Qinghe finally understood.
The difference in their status was like that between clouds and mud. It was only natural that the Eldest Princess looked down on her.
She wiped away her tears, packed her things, and left the princess's residence in the dead of night.
But in less than half a month, she was captured and brought back.
That night.
The usually cool and aloof beauty, brimming with murderous fury, pinned her against the bed curtains and said in a tender, intimate voice, “If you run away again, it'll be more than just one night.”
With that, Song Changyu bent down and kissed Xie Qinghe gently, silencing all her whimpers.
