The Imperial Consort accidentally killed the young Crown Prince. I happened to be passing by, but I wasn’t nervous or afraid. I watched as the pool of blood beneath the prince grew larger and larger…
In my previous life, I immediately called for help. But even after the imperial physician arrived, nothing could be done. The Imperial Consort insisted that I was the culprit. I turned to my husband, who had come to the palace with me on official business, but he shoved me away.
“I wasn’t with you just now. Don’t drag me into this and make me lie for you!”
My younger sister picked up the bloodstained handkerchief and pointed it at me. “This is proof my sister killed him.”
The furious Empress ordered me beaten to death. Even as I died, I couldn’t understand why my husband and sister had framed me.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day the Imperial Consort invited the young Crown Prince to the spring banquet.
