Villain Lady
“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. ...

From both his enemies and comrades.
It's his burden and responsibility as the leader, which was not something everyone could bear.
'I'm thinking too much today.'
Pushing all thoughts from her mind, Wei Liuying walked to her bed. She needed to rest.

Outside the place, Prince Ji Sheng looked in Yang Xian's direction. He was leaning against the tree as his figure was covered under the shadow. The light from the moon unable to reach his place as he was perfectly hidden beneath the darkness.
