I am the Shen family’s once-in-a-century mind-reading divine son. In my previous life, I helped the princess put down a rebellion, only to die tragically in a military camp because of her. After being reborn, I swore I would never read her mind again, yet she still forced me to use my life-shortening power to save her childhood sweetheart, even threatening me by slaughtering my entire family. Her sweetheart’s true face as a traitor who colluded with the enemy was finally exposed, and the princess met her end pierced by thousands of arrows. With the hatred of two lifetimes finally behind us, the Eldest Princess had always protected me in silence. She took me and my only surviving nephew away from the imperial capital. Looking back at the palace engulfed in flames, I severed my ties to the past and set out toward a new life that could truly make me happy.
