“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. ...

"It's fine, Strategist Yang."
"Don't make His Majesty wait."
They all exchanged some pleasantries as they watched Yang Xian entered the inner palace with the eunuch.
Prime Minister Xie stroke his lower chin. He glanced at Prime Minister Wei, who was standing not far from him. "Who do you think the Emperor will place at the throne?"
Prime Minister Wei only sent a cold look. The Emperor was originally unconscious for days, but he regained his consciousness yesterday. It was hard to say how his current condition was, but the physicians were still skeptical over his condition.
"You're not going to win this battle, Prime Minister Xie."
"You shouldn't be so confident before it's clear who the winner is," Prime Minister Xie retorted.
"Heh."
