“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. ...

As soon as the door was closed, the temperature dropped to a chilling degree.
General Hao was sitting still in his place, but it could be seen that his fingers were clenching tightly. The short conversation with Liu Ying just now already put him in so much edge. He could tell that the young strategist was watching him so tightly that even breathing felt hurt.
"The pressure is no joke."
"Yes. I feel as if I'm seeing another mirror of Prince Ji Sheng," General Hao said in slow pace. His body gradually calm down, yet his eyes showed traces of fear. "His action is perfect. He didn't let me know what he's thinking at all. At the same time, he's keeping the demeanor of a young master perfectly as if he has been living as one all this time."
The servant, who was lowering his head before, raised his head and looked at the general. "He's dangerous."
"He even realized your presence. Do you think that he's truly a b*stard son of a noble family?"
"No."
