“Future will only set in stone when it becomes the present.” Wei Liuying is a concubine daughter in Prime Minister’s Residence. A lowly existence with barely anyone who cares for her. She had to rely on her wits and manipulate others to stay alive. When the main daughter suddenly changed overnight, the others were dragged to keep up with her pace. Wei Liuying was no exception, and she had to adapt to the sudden power structure’s shift inside the residence. The main daughter laughed and looked at her with contempt, “Trying to scheme at me who knows everything like the back of my hand? You’re nothing more than a villain who’ll die a miserable death.” When the only one who cared for her was harmed by her father and so-called family, Wei Liuying laughed to Heaven as tears trailed on her cheek. “If you truly wish for me to be the villain, fine. I’ll be one.” In the midst of the raging flames of succession’s war and rebellions, Wei Liuying had to stand up for herself and fight for her survival. ...

"Strategist Yang, please follow me."
Yang Xian nodded and followed the eunuch. The room was sound proofed, so he knew that the only one who knew the conversation just now was the Imperial Physician. Still, he was worried that things might not be going that smoothly.
Walking back to the hall, Yang Xian noticed that each of the official was keeping close attention to each other. They would try to catch anyone who act suspicious.
'This is truly a battlefield on its own.'
"Strategist Yang, did His Majesty say anything?" Prime Minister Xie asked directly.
Yang Xian smiled. "His Majesty is worried about the border getting affected. Fortunately, His Highness the Third Prince is still holding on there."
The news regarding the war at the north was not new for the officials. They have heard about it countless times and ever since the fallout of the treaty, no one seemed to feel that it was strange for wars to happen again and again.
