There’s only one bed in this sleeping chamber.

The two of them carry those mouldy and wet quilt and throw them all away. Zhao Yin takes off his robe and lay it on the bedboard.

Neither Prince Yan nor Princess Chaofeng has ever slept in such a harsh environment before in their whole life.

“Let’s make do with it just for tonight.” Zhao Yin says.

In such an environment, it is impossible for two people to lie down and sleep. But the two of them can’t afford to be picky any more. They lie back to back and rest with their eyes closed.

Ah Zhao has always been a simple soul and she falls right asleep almost as soon as she closes her eyes.

With his eyes wide open, Zhao Yin stares at the snuff near to him. Though he feels extremely tired physically, with what happened today and all the things on his mind, he couldn’t find any sleep at all.

Hearing the even breath of the one that lies behind him, for the moment, Zhao Yin puts all the messes aside. His Princess indeed surprises him.

Everything starting from her insistence on coming to the cold palace with him is contrary to his expectation.

Zhao Yin thinks that for the two years since their marriage, he has never really understood Qin Zhao.

Come to think of it, he does not know how Qin Zhao and he end up like this.

Back to when all this started, he did have expectation when he knew that father sanctioned his marriage and Princess Yan would be Princess Chaofeng of Prince Beiding’s Manor.

Since he had met Princess Chaofeng, though she had a bit more pride in her, she was blessed with the best status and bearing in the capital of Great Yan, let alone her unparalleled beauty, which no man could ever reject.

But what happened after that?

He heard a lot of gossips about her. Dislike for her grew in his heart.

She had reached out to him several times, however, every time she said something that confused him and her aloof posture left him no good impression.

The result always had been them parting on bad terms.

Even before they got married, there had been rift between them.

After their big wedding, the rift deepened. While they ought to have been the most intimate person to each other, they gradually drifted apart.

The whole capital know they are completely estranged.

The snuff cracks in the silent darkness. Zhao Yin is still thinking. When all the thoughts start to blur, he dozes off into sleep.

At the same time.

In a Manor in the capital.

There are only two people in the quiet study.

“What did you say? Did you say that Princess Yan stood by Prince Yan and followed him to the Palace of Happiness?”

The man who is speaking is wearing a plain blue robe. He looks refined and cultivated, with the right smile on his face, which makes a good impression on people with just one glance.

If Zhao Yin were here, he would definitely recognize this person. It is his sixth brother, Prince Yi, Zhao Yi.

No one pays him much attention in court. His biological mother died a long time ago and he was brought up by a Consort.

His foster mother Consort Shu doesn’t come from a powerful family. She’s not much help to Zhao Yi. Though his biological mother came from an influential family, the family already sent a girl to the palace and didn’t put much weight on him.

Look at this t.i.tle, Prince Yi, Zhao Yi. It shows how little the emperor actually cares about this son of his.

Everybody knows that Prince Yi does not have much ambition and he’s been doing his job conscientiously at Ministry of Revenue for many years. He’s no threat to anyone.

But that was the Prince Yi in the past.

Now, a soul that comes from a later generation dwells in the body of Prince Yi, Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi is a failure in a political conflict. After he was executed, he did not know why he ended up in this body.

After he’s clear about the situation, he’s wild with joy.

G.o.d gives him one more chance to start all over again, a chance to reach the peak of his life.

He’s from a later generation and he knows the history of Great Yan.

In history, Prince Yan, Zhao Yin was the successor to the throne. He was t.i.tled Emperor Mingzong of Yan and was a famous emperor of a time of peace and prosperity. He would bring an unparalleled flouris.h.i.+ng age to this dynasty.

But that has nothing to do with Zhao Yi.

He only knows he will crush whatever in his way to become an emperor.

Author’s note:

The original development of the plot would be Zhao Yin, the male lead, succeeding to the throne and becoming a wise emperor of a golden age. However, accident happens when a transmigrator takes Zhao Yi’s body. As a person from future generation, he knows everything about what happens in history. With that, he frames Prince Yan, poisons Princess Yan and finally usurps the throne by all evil means.

This is when Ah Zhao transmigrates. She is now in the same plot with the other transmigrator who plans to take the throne.
