Prince! Please don’t break off the engagement. There’s a girl’s begging in the golden palace. But the people don’t show pity on her. The servants serve their masters. The masters look at the man who’s begged. Someone asks Prince Chen what to do.
Chapter 1: Hitting Pillar and Death Part 1
Emperor Yuqian sits on the dragon chair. He glances at Prime Minister Yun. He looks at Prince Chen then. The girl knows she has a hope. She takes a look at Prince Chen who stands next to her. She wishes him to change his mind. But he tells Emperor Yuqian that he has made the decision. He asks him to grant his wish.
The girl gets rejected by Prince Chen. She asks Prince Chen not to do that. She shakes her head and she tears up. Her lips shake because of agitation. But his cold and vicious expression makes her resist. She doesn’t dare to show it.
She has to talk to herself when she’s frozen. The people in the palace hold their breath because of Prince Chen’s answer. The girl’s face is pale like snow. She looks around the palace and she bites her lower lip. She gets on knees to Prince Chen and she gets on knees to him.
She asks him not to break off the engagement. She ignores the people who look down on her. She kowtows to Prince Chen. The people look at the girl with contempt. Prince Chen frowns. He looks at the girl with dislike. He sees her crying and cowardice looks.
He speaks again and he tells her that he won’t marry her. The girl sits on the floor after she heard the heartless answer. She’s desperate and her lower lip is bleeding because she bit it tightly. She knows she cannot marry others since she has rejected by Prince Chen.
The people’s gaze stimulate Yun Qianmeng. She laughs like a crazy girl. Her tears roll down her face and her body shakes. She looks at Prince Chen with love. She describes his handsome looks in her mind. She tells herself that she doesn’t have face to live since Prince Chen gave up her.
She stands up. But her eyes are fixed on Prince Chen. Her pitiful looks breaks our heart. But Prince Chen doesn’t pity her. Yun Qianmeng takes a look at the red dragon pillar. She’s firm. Emperor Yuqian asks the people to stop Yun Qianmeng after he noted that she’s going to do something bad. The people are shocked. But they don’t react to what happens.
Yun Meng has a headache. She tries her best to open her eyes. But she sees the dark red in her right eye. Her headache gets worse. She finds out that she’s in an ancient room. The strong blood smell is around her except the incense smell.
Yun Meng remembers she was doing a task with her colleagues. She wonders why she lies there. She gets many flashes in her brain. The master of the body is called Yun Qianmeng. She’s the daughter of the Right Prime Minister of West Chu Kingdom Yun Xuanzhi. Her real mother Madam Qu passed away when Yun Qianmeng was one month old.
The large Prime Minister Mansion was managed by Yun Xuanzhi’s concubine Su Qing. Yun Qianmeng was bullied by Su Qing and her sister. She didn’t dare to fight it back because she’s weak after she lost her mother.
Fortunately, Madam Qu’s older sister is the Empress Dowager of West Chu. Empress Dowager married Yun Qianmeng to Prince Chen. But Prince Chen didn’t accept the marriage. So he asked for breaking off the marriage at the Gold Palace.
The scene is fixed in the moment Yun Qianmeng hit the pillar and she passed away. It makes Yun Meng have a headache. She sends out a small crying.
Ah! A fearful exclamation rings suddenly as Yun Qianmeng is awake. She hears the sound that someone tripped then.
“What’s up? What happens?” A rebuking voice comes with anger. The sound of footsteps come to the Silent Room.
“Old Sister Qiu Lian! Miss isn’t dead…” The startled girl is embarrassed to walk to the lead girl. She whispers in her ear. Especially the last word. The small voice gets more lower.
“What!” The girl who’s called Qiu Lian opens her eyes widely. She takes a look at the bed nearby her with unbelievable expression. She sees Yun Qianmeng not moving. She suspects it more.
“Old Sister, it’s true! I don’t dare to tell a lie!” Seeing Qiu Lian’s doubt. The little girl has to move to the bed with guts. She trembles to point at the person in the bed…
