Prolog

Qin Yin Zheng, he is the young emperor currently leading the Qin empire. He had become emperor at a very young age, 20 years. And since his 10 years of rule, the young man who always calls himself Zhen has succeeded in conquering several kingdoms around the Qin empire.

His face was beautiful and handsome, mesmerizing with his pair of sharp dragon-like eyes. His nose was sharp and his thin lips were always flat whenever the imperial court started. His body was tall and straight, with a broad chest that was so hard. It is this perfection that makes many aristocratic women compete to get on his bed. But alas, this man was so picky about his partner that currently the emperor only had an empress and four concubines in his harem.

To be surprise, after so many years the emperor was reluctant to add a concubine, the palace was surprised by a newcomer. A beautiful young girl, with a face as beautiful as a fairy, she was so gentle that she was able to get the emperor to give her the title of Guiren.

"Your Highness, who is this girl who can charm you. This Huanghou* is so curious about the new concubine," The Empress looked at her husband with gentle eyes. She was used to the emperor's cold attitude, but as a woman who ruled the inner palace, of course she had to know the origin of the girl who was able to make her husband's heart flutter again.

Moreover, he heard that this girl was still young and was placed in the dragon palace by the emperor himself. Where this palace is where the emperor rests every day. Even herself as the empress rarely entered the dragon palace, which made her slightly jealous of this new concubine.

"Zhen will introduce her when the time comes, therefore empress I hope you will look after her while I am at the imperial court," The emperor's pair of sharp eyes glanced at the empress for a few second, the emperor knew he would not be able to entrust his new concubine to anyone in this palace after all. It's just that as an emperor he also can't just ignore his duties as an emperor.

"Huanghou understands Your Highness…"

The emperor looked very satisfied with his empress, then looked back at the several dancers in front of him. His brows furrowed sharply as he remembered something, "How is the Crown Prince doing, is he getting better?"

The Empress has not given birth to a prince, but she has given birth to a daughter. Thus, the prince who was born by concubine Huang Huifei had been appointed as the Crown Prince when he was even six years old, "Your Highness, you don't have to worry about the Crown Prince. He is already very well and has even been attending the imperial school back since a few days ago."

"Hmm.. It's good that he's getting better. I will visit you tonight."

The empress's pair of slender eyes widened, she was quite surprised by the emperor's words because her husband had preferred another concubine over her all this time, "Thank you for the blessing, Your Majesty... I will be waiting for you at the Moon palace tonight."

* * *

"Miss what are you doing?!" a maid who saw the young girl was about to jump from the bedroom window squealed in surprise, immediately she brought the girl's body that was half out of the window back into the room, "If you are injured, our heads can be severed from our necks miss..."

A sigh came from the girl, who was wearing a white hanfu with simple decorations. Staring at the maid who served him for several days with angry face, "I want to get out of this place."

"Without the emperor's permission you will not be able to get out of this place!" cried the servant in fear. He knelt before the girl he knew would become the emperor's new concubine.

For some time she has been assigned to serve and look after this beautiful girl, but who would have thought that this girl was so wild and naughty. In addition to her fairy-like appearance, this girl's character and behavior are far from being gentle like what rumor said. Her name was Xiao Zhi Ruo, with the title Guiren prefixed to her name by the emperor some time ago. She was only seventeen years old, and the emperor had brought her from the girl's family to be a fill-in in his harem.

The girl snorted softly, then pulled the maid who was still kneel to her feet, "What are you going to do by kneel like this, huh. I just wanted to take a walk and look around why you are so scared."

She really just wanted to take a walk and look around, because these few days he was just locked up in this palace. At first she also didn't want to be in this place, but in order to save his life whe had to hug the emperor's golden thigh. If not her life will be threatened once again and might end up in hell a second time.

She was a person from the 21st century, but her death brought him to this world. Entering the body of a girl who had previously died from the torment she suffered. The family that owned this body were so cruel, they dragged, whipped and tortured this girl just because she was not wanted. Because of that, when she was about to be killed, her feet ran into a street filled with people and indiscriminately asked someone for help—which turned out to be the emperor.

Uhh.. my luck is pretty good.

"Tell me, until when should I be locked up in this place? I'm not a pet," she muttered angrily, his hands on her hips and glaring at the maid in front of her.

"All that can only be decided by the emperor, miss I hope you will understand and be patient."

Xiao Zhi Ruo snorted again but didn't say anything else because she knew it would be useless. In her heart she had planned various things, 'I have to get that man's heart to survive. After all, I have experience in satisfying men. Ha ha ha…'
