2 CHAPTER 2: Treasured Daughter

Han Xiang was the modern world's daughter of a minister, A food connoisseur and a jeweler who enjoys traveling to new places and countries to try new delicacies and explore new adornment designs for her maternal business.

Her culinary prowess can only be described as exceptional. Despite having the freedom to do the things she enjoys most, like eating and cooking. As a member of the upper social strata, there is always a cost. She had to learn the four elegances, as well as etiquette rules, she was also forced to face people in positions of authority at a young age. As a result, her young mind had already been programmed not to be afraid in the presence of powerful people.

Who would have guessed she's be able to use her knowledge to survive in this ancient world?

As she emerged in an unfamiliar room, she was no longer shocked by her sorroundings, but it still feels surreal to see something she had never imagined seeing or to be in a world she had never imagined living in.

" Mistress, please don't be like this; I  understand how difficult it has been for you to live like this, but you must remain strong. Your maiden family who dotes you as well as the old madam, they will certainly help you. "

A young maid was weeping beside the bed, she was holding my hands while caressing my hair. She's Lou Ling, if my memory serves me correctly. One of the servant girls from my dowry. They were initially four, but three of them chose to crawl into their master's bed and are now bed servants.

Scheming and battling with other concubines and bed servants in order to win Qinwang's favor. But, whatever.

" Ling-er, There is no use crying over spilled milk. I don't care about winning favor anymore. Let us just live life on our own. "  I said while still staring at the ceiling.

Right, I don't care about winning favor in this lifetime; all that I have to care about is ensuring that I don't suffer from the same cause again, escape death and live happily with my foods.

" F-furen, you're finally awake" Lou Ling happily said, " Furen, Do you want to eat something? I'll start cooking right away. Furen, You must know how worried I was when you were in a coma, particularly when the physician said it would be a miracle it you woke up. " She added.

" N-no need. Could you please hand me the mirror? Id like to see how I look. " I murmured. Because of her acne and oily face, the villainess in the novel appears to be particularly revolting. She's also thin as a beanpole. Only to discover that it's because her old servants conspired to poison her everyday foods, causing her skin to deteriorate.

Hurriedly, the servant obeyed her order. Before her marriage, she was the Treasured daughter of Count Han Nianzu. The lily among thorns. The enticing beauty that was veiled in the utmost courtyard in Han Fu¹. The appearance of a flower, face like the moon, glistening in a starry night.

In the modern world, where regard is acquire through how beautiful you are, she developed a strong desire to reestablish the appearance she was once had.

as she continued to stare at her ravaged image in a bronze mirror, she felt a wave of mental torment that ripped through her flesh and caused spasms all over her body.

she remembered that the prince was still in the palace at the present time when he learned of her bedridden state. His concubines plotted against her, and when he returned home, he did not bother to pay her a visit or even spare her a glance. Only to see how deep his hatred really is. Does he really despises the person who owns this body?

Lou Ling who had been studying her closely, has a new feeling. she can't figure out what's wrong, but she suspects something isn't right. her mistress seems to be a different person. as she observed over the last few days, her mistress had been calm and poised, graceful and refined, exuding a ethereal charm; she did not also make any unreasonable demand or cause any commotion.

QINWANG'S STUDY HALL

" How's my wife? " The Prince asked, in a deep gravelly voice. It reverberated across the wide room, making the servants tremble. The prince was composed, and the more composed he appears to be, the larger the storm would be.

" Your majesty, According to the servant, Furen has been acting oddly lately, she simply instructed the servant to clean every corner of the courtyard, purchase a variety of books and seeds. She even tends to some flowers of her own aside from that, she's doing really well. " no one knows what the prince was thinking; he merely sipped his tea and did not react or inquire further.

No one knows whether or not he believes it. Everyone in Qinwang's palace is aware of her strange behavior and bad nature. she has an unrivaled beauty that gives her a magnetic appeal that is impossible to resist when she first enters the manor, but appearance can really be deceiving.

Beauty without virtue is like a flower without fragrance. She was vengeful and hurled things when something didn't go her way; she was a Jealous woman with a bad temper, reckless and constantly plotted the prince's concubines.
