In her previous life, Wen Xueling was an unpopular concubine in the Marquis Jingzhong's mansion. The only thing that can be remembered about her is her beautiful appearance.
It's a pity that even though she has a charming appearance even with a little makeup, she is still not as good as her younger sister Xueyun.
Xueyun was a direct descendant of the Hou family. He was of noble birth and had an alluring appearance. He was a young master from a prominent family in the capital who had great sympathy for her and was willing to pay tens of thousands of gold to marry him.
But the person Xue Yun admired was the regent who moved the world.

In her previous life, Wen Xueling thought that Xueyun treated her very well.
Xueyun begged his mother, Madam Hou, to find a good match for her, which was Cui Mo, the brother of the current regent Cui Yi.
Only later did she learn that Cui Mo had always been attracted to Xueyun and married her because she was somewhat similar to Xueyun.
And after the marriage, she discovered that Cui Mo was physically ill and inhumane. Every night, Cui Mo would abuse her drunkenly and beat her with a whip.
One day later, the regent Cui Yi came to visit him at his residence.
When she poured tea for Cui Yi, Cui Yi caught a glimpse of the scars on her arm and suddenly grabbed her wrist, with anger in his eyes.
This scene happened to be seen by Xueyun.

One day she became pregnant.
Cui Mo knew full well that this was not his child, so he had someone force-fed her a bowl of miscarriage medicine.
The medicine was so dangerous that she ended up killing two people.
Only after her death did she realize that it was all Xueyun's fault. Xueyun found someone to defile her, but she thought that the man that night was her husband Cui Mo.
Xueyun treated her like this only because Cui Yi, the regent, looked at her as a concubine twice when he was a guest in the Hou Mansion.
Xueyun mistakenly believed that Cui Yi liked her, so Xueyun deliberately asked her mother to marry her to Cui Mo, who was mentally and physically ill.

The regent Cui Yi was born in the Cui family of Qinghe. He was twenty-nine years old but still had not married. Officials gave him countless beauties, but they were all kept as decorations in the backyard of the palace.
Cui Yi had great military exploits. At the age of twenty-one, he beheaded an enemy general in a rebellious army. At the age of twenty-two, he was made a marquis by the Holy Emperor.
After that, he fought on the battlefield for several years, and wherever he went, every inch of land under his feet was classified as Dayin's territory.
At the age of twenty-seven, Cui Yi was conferred the title of king by the Holy Emperor. He was the only prince with a different surname in the two hundred years since the founding of Dayin.
On his deathbed, the Holy Emperor entrusted him with an orphan and named him regent. Now the court and the world were under Cui Yi's control.
***
The world only knows that the regent Cui Yi is a veritable killer on the battlefield, but they don't know that he is also full of treasures.
The articles he wrote while participating in the imperial examination were praised by the great scholars of the time.
But Cui Yi, who everyone thought had no regrets in his life, broke into the mourning hall on the night when he heard that his brother's wife died suddenly.
He even ignored etiquette and split open his sister-in-law's coffin.
The moment he saw the pale face in the coffin, the hand holding the sword of the usually calm Regent Cui Yi was trembling.
