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, after making Ying Lili sleep, left to meet Shi Zhihao in his chamber. Shi Zhihao upon getting informed about the arrival of the Emperor. He got down from the bed and stood in the middle of the chamber.
He bowed and greeted Sheng Li.
"Did the Prince sleep well?" Sheng Li asked him and sat on the chaise. He gestured to Shi Zhihao to sit down on the other one, who took his seat.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I had a good sleep. I am feeling refreshed," he answered in his soft tone.
"Princess Bai Yaling married my Second Brother, Prince Yongzheng, who's no more. However, my late father, the former Emperor, wanted the Princess to start a new life when she is young. He believed that other than Prince Shi Zhihao no one could be better for Princess Bai Yaling.
I wanted to know your views on this," Sheng Li asserted.
"My views are nothing special, Your Majesty. I am glad that the Emperor found me this worthy," Shi Zhihao replied.
