Chapter 1 — Cui Van Chieu

Verdict: During the spring hunting session at the royal hunting grounds, I was harmed by someone else and hit the spring poison. While I was in a daze, I accidentally broke into Te Dien's tent. Before everyone's eyes, my clothes were disheveled and he carried me out. On that very day, the decree was given. The prince of Vinh Ninh palace, Marquis Qi Dien, and the daughter of Tran Bac general Thoi Van Chieu, immediately got married. But little did we know, he had another woman in his heart for a long time. On the wedding night, he lifted my red veil, his eyes as cold as ice. "Cui Van Chieu, if you have wasted your mind and heart to marry into this palace, then you should know that you will have to bear the consequences." During the last big snow of that year, I had a high fever because of the cold. The maid ran to beg him to invite the doctor. He didn't even raise his head. "Tell her to wait." I had a fever all day and night. Before I stopped breathing, I just thought: If there is another life... I will never see Te Dien again. ... When I opened my eyes again, I was standing in the middle of the forest of the hunting ground. As soon as the medicinal properties took effect, the whole body was hot like fire. I bit my tongue so hard that I bled, turned around and ran in the completely opposite direction of my previous life. There is a cold lagoon there. Qi Dien... In this life, I hope we all go our separate ways and each of us is safe. … The water is so cold it's bone-chilling. I soaked my whole body in the water, the medicinal properties were somewhat suppressed, and my mind gradually regained consciousness. By the time I climbed ashore, my clothes were soaked, my hands and feet were so cold that they were numb. I squeezed out the water from the hem of my dress, using the moonlight to distinguish the direction. The tent of General Tran Bac's palace is located in the east. If you want to return, you have to pass through this forest. I had just walked a few steps when I heard someone's footsteps behind me. "Who's there?" It was Te Dien's voice. His whole body stiffened, he didn't turn around but walked faster. "Stop!" He chased. Under the moonlight, he wore a jet black cavalry outfit, a long sword on his waist, sword eyebrows with star eyes, and a handsome appearance. Han is still as beautiful as in his memories and still as cold as in his memories. When he saw my face clearly, he was stunned for a moment. "Cui Van Chieu?" I bowed my head and bowed. "The Prince." He frowned and observed the wet clothes on my body. "Did you... fall into the water?" I replied nonchalantly: "I accidentally slipped. I won't disturb the Prince's pleasure anymore, I'll take my leave." "Wait." He raised his hand to block my path. "What's that smell on you...?" Although the medicinal properties have disappeared. less, but that sweet scent has not completely disappeared. I took a half step back. "It was The Prince who smelled wrong." His eyes darkened slightly, and suddenly he reached out and grabbed my wrist. "Are you addicted to spring medicine?" "No." I wanted to withdraw my hand, but he tightened his grip. He stared at me, his eyes sharp. "Who seduced you? Tell me, I will take care of you." I just find it ridiculous. In his previous life, he stubbornly believed that I had used tricks just to get married to him. He hates me because he thinks I separated him and Wen Yulan. No matter how I explained, he never believed it. Even though I brought the evidence before him. … I smiled slightly. "Really not. If there's nothing left for the Crown Prince, I'll ask permission to leave first." He stood still in place. After a moment of silence, he let go. I bowed and bowed, then turned and left. … As soon as she returned to the tent, Xuan Dao ran over in panic. "Miss! Why are you so wet? What should I do if I get cold?" I changed her clothes and dried her hair. The whole person was still stunned as if in a dream. I... Truly came back to life. Return ten years ago, return to the third day of spring hunting at the royal hunting ground. Xuan Dao worriedly said: "Miss, your face is so poor. Yes

must have caught a cold? Let me go cook a bowl of ginger soup." "No need." I held her hand. "Xuan Dao, you quietly go and listen for me. Tonight... is there any movement on The Tu's side?" Even though he didn't understand why, Xuan Dao still obeyed and left. Half an hour later, she returned with a strange look on her face. "Miss, I heard that... The Crown Prince carried a young lady back to the tent." My heart trembled slightly. "Who is it?" "It's... the second lady of the On family, On Du Lan." On Du Lan. It was the woman he kept hidden deep in his heart. Xuan Dao condescended to her. voice. "I heard that Miss Wen was hit by spring medicine, and was found by someone else in the Prince's tent... Now a lot of people know about it." I was stunned. Then suddenly burst out laughing. So that's it. That's good. People in love will become close relatives. I should bless them. "Miss, what are you laughing at?" Xuan Dao asked in bewilderment. I retracted my smile and said softly: "Xuan Dao, pack your luggage. Tomorrow morning we will return to the palace." "But the spring hunting session is still two days away from ending..." "Don't stay anymore." I looked at the quiet night outside the tent, slowly said: "This place... I don't want to stay even for a moment longer."... The next morning, I took Xuan Dao out of the hunting ground very early, returning to the general's palace. Father was still guarding the northern border, in the palace there were only me and a few old servants left. Quiet... that was also What I wanted. In the afternoon, someone arrived in the palace. The Queen's maids bowed respectfully. "Miss, the Queen sent someone into the palace." My heart sank slightly, but on the outside I still respectfully responded. Sitting in the carriage, I was uneasy all the way. In my previous life, at this time, the Queen summoned me just to follow the rules before getting married Phuong Nghi Palace, the Queen sat upright on the chair, with a gentle expression. "Van Chieu is here, sit down." I sat down, eyes closed, quietly waiting. The Queen slowly spoke: "Have you heard about what happened at the hunting ground last night?" "I heard a little." The Queen sighed softly. people have seen it with their own eyes." "Dien Nhi has come to ask this palace for a decree, wanting to marry Wen Du Lan as his first wife." My fingertips trembled slightly. Suddenly the Queen looked at me. "What do you think?" I raised my head. "I'm stupid, I don't dare to make false promises." The Queen smiled. "This palace wants to hear your sincere words." Her eyes fell on me. "Originally, Dien Nhi is my fiance. Three years ago, His Majesty had intended to marry you two, but because I was still young at that time, this matter was temporarily put aside." "Now that such a thing has happened... if you are willing, this palace will ask His Majesty to grant your marriage. As for Wen Du Lan... at most, she could only do the same thing. "In my previous life... the Queen also asked me the same thing. At that time, I was overjoyed thinking that I could finally marry the person I secretly loved. So I nodded and agreed. In exchange... was ten years of being cold, a whole life of loneliness. I stood up, knelt down and bowed my head deeply. "Thank you very much for your kindness, I am extremely grateful." "It's just... The Prince has fallen in love. love Miss Wen. The two of them are inherently destined for each other, the goddess does not want to come between them." "I respectfully request that you fulfill your wishes for The Prince and Miss Wen. Even if I have to never marry for the rest of my life, I will never complain." The Queen was silent for a long time. "Do you really think so?" "Yes." "No regrets?" I replied without hesitation. "I absolutely have no regrets." The Queen sighed softly again. "Okay. If you say so, I bow

I won't force you." "It's just Van Chieu, you should understand that, if you miss Dien Nhi, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to find a marriage that is treated like that in the capital." I smiled slightly. "I understand." "I would rather marry a normal family, with husband and wife as respectful as new, than to become the third person and make everyone uncomfortable."...
