I was the least remarkable concubine-born daughter of the Yongchang Marquis household. I was never meant to marry the Crown Prince, but after he angered the emperor, he was banished to guard a frontier city for three years. It took me a month to get there, and as luck would have it, when I arrived, the emperor had ordered him to be beaten with military rods. After the beating, he came to my room and lifted my veil.
