Keeping Her Hidden in a Golden House

● The chaste one loses control | The proud one bows his head

● Brother steals younger brother's wife | Sweet, indulgent romance

After lying low for many years, the former Crown Prince Wei Songzhao finally gathered enough strength to break through the imperial capital and reclaim the throne.

And, naturally, he also acquired the many treasures left behind by the deposed emperor.

-

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Wei Songzhao drove his sword into the deposed emperor's chest. He watched him wheeze and gasp, his eyes turning unwillingly toward the side hall, before he breathed his last.

Wei Songzhao glanced toward the side hall, raised an eyebrow, and made his way there at an unhurried pace.

"Creak, "

The doors slowly opened.

Inside sat a young woman with dark eyes, snow-white cheeks, and tender lips like red roses. Even the tears brimming in her eyes were adorable.

She was so lovely and graceful, a beauty without equal.

Who would have thought his imperial elder brother had hidden such a treasure in the palace?

He pressed his teeth against the roof of his mouth and relished the thought. As expected of brothers, they even had the same taste.

Every feature and expression of this beauty seemed made just for him. There wasn't a single thing about her that didn't suit his fancy.

If that was so... then this beauty would be his.

"What is your name?" Wei Songzhao asked, unusually gentle.

The beauty answered timidly, "Lian Qingquan."

Wei Songzhao nodded. "That name suits you."

He looked around and said, "But this palace doesn't suit you."

The new emperor's gaze slowly swept over her. Smiling, he said, "From now on, I will build you a palace that suits you best."

He would keep her hidden away and claim her day and night.

A little scene:

At first

Wei Songzhao (arrogant): "If you behave, I can make you a consort."

Later

Wei Songzhao knew Lian Qingquan was inside the palace, but the doors remained shut.

He sighed. "Does the Empress still refuse to let me in?"

The eunuch at the door nodded, trembling.

So the emperor had no choice but to keep standing outside the Empress's palace as punishment.
