“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. ...

The sky had long brightened.
Wei Liuying didn't know how long she slept, but she didn't wake up for a long time. By the time she opened her eyes, she realized that it was already past midday. She must have slept for a long time.
"You're awake?"
Turning her head to the door, Wei Liuying noticed that Yang Xian was standing there with several bamboo strips on his hands. She corrected her body to a sitting position and looked back at the strategist.
"Yes. Thank you very much for allowing me to stay here last night, Strategist Yang."
"You can call me with my name," Yang Xian said and walked forward. He poured a cup of water from the pot and handed it to Wei Liuying. "I don't have tea here, so you should drink water first. After you wash up, I'll bring you to the dining room to eat."
"Thank you."
