Han Sheng Li is the Crown Prince of the Great Han kingdom. Since the age of fourteen, he mostly went to the wars with his father, Han Wenji, the great emperor of the Han Kingdom. He's the most favored child of his father but, is the cruelest and ruthless among all of his seven half brothers. An-Ying Lili, who is known for her kindness and beauty, is the princess of Juyan City. She could not see her family die at the hands of Han Sheng Li so agreed with the marriage alliance which was put forward by the Emperor of Han. ~~~~ “I heard you are the kindest woman in the entire Han Kingdom but, it seems opposite to me. You want me to die!!” The Crown Prince astonishingly said, keeping his icy gaze intact on the woman on his bed. “Cruel people are not worthy of anyone’s kindness,” the Crown princess pronounced sternly. The crown prince chuckled. “Kindest is the one who whimpers in pain. Are you ready for undergoing that pain with this cruel man?” Crown prince asked, slightly tilting his head, and a smirk formed on his lips. Leaning closer to Ying Lili's ear, Sheng Li whispered, "Never expect love from this evil and cruel man. Feed this in your mind- 'You will never warm my bed.' Remember this memorable wedding night, my dear Crown Princess." ~~~~~~ Thanks to "LydiaF" for proofreading the chapters for me. Thanks to My CE for this amazing Title suggestion.

Sheng Li wore a black Hanfu Dress and left the Residence in the night. He had to make Ying Lili drunk because he knew that she would insist on taking her with him. Soon he reached outside the Department of Police Bureau. To his surprise, the Bureau Office was closed. "What is wrong with them? They are not active at night. Is it because of last night's incident?" Sheng Li thought and walked away from there.
Hiding, the Crown Prince went to the market. In Luoyang and the other cities of Han, the market usually closed by 9 o'clock but here the situation was different. The market was closed before that and not a single person could be seen there.
Sheng Li kept walking in between the narrow alleys when his attention grabbed the cries of a man and a child. Following the voice, Sheng Li stopped as he found the cries had gotten prominent. He hid behind a shop and peeked from there.
