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.

In the Royal Court, the matter regarding the nearest village to the market is put forward by the Fourth Prince in front of the Emperor. "Your majesty, Village Shuanxi (Imaginary name) is not developed well and the condition of the people in the village is also miserable. The abject poverty in the region is my concern which is affecting many lives there," Nianzu pronounced.
Han Wenji nodded and looked at Jian Guozhi. "Is the Governor of Luoyang not looking into these matters?!" Han Wenji asked.
Nianzu intervened and said, "Your majesty, I have discussed the matter with the Governor already. I think there is some problem with the administration. Even the Governor of Luoyang is busy with the work of the entire capital, so he cannot work on this all by himself."
