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.

Chuntao was adjusting the buyao on her head that Ying Lili had given her when the maidservant informed her about the arrival of the Empress. Chuntao got nervous to hear that and quickly came towards the center of her chamber. Deng Hui came inside and saw Chuntao in front of her.
She kowtowed before her and gave the Empress her greetings.
Deng Hui stepped forward and brought her fingers under her chin. She gently pulled it up and Chuntao happened to look into her eyes.
"Forgive me, for looking straight into your eyes, Your Majesty," Chuntao apologized and she immediately lowered them. Her hands were trembling in fear.
"You are the daughter-in-law of the Royal Family of Han. I will not punish you for looking into my eyes and also you are no longer a commoner but the wife of the Fourth Prince. You should not get scared easily," Deng Hui said with a smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Chuntao replied.
