Married To The Cruel Crown Prince
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.

The Port City
Governor Zui Mingze welcomed Sheng Li and took him to the private chamber of the residence. Sheng Li settled on the chaise and put his right palm over his right knee.
"Take your seat," Sheng Li told him, who sat down, keeping his gaze low.
"Changying is the third important city in the Empire. It is closest to the Capital of Han, which means any instability in Changying can create repercussions in Luoyang too. Mingze, you went to war with me, yet you are unable to get control over this," Sheng Li said with a dejected look.
Mingze got down from his seat on his knees. "Forgive me, Your Majesty," Mingze lowered his head.
"I am truly apologetic for my negligence. I am ready to get the punishment," Mingze said with guilt.
Sheng Li got infuriated upon hearing Mingze. He shouted at him. "Mingze! Is it about the punishment? Do you think by punishing you, the problem will be solved? Since when did you become a coward?" He had lost his temper.
