Chapter 1 — She stole the engagement, stole the grace that saved my life, but could not steal the person who heard my heart

The first time Prince Regent met me, the sword in his hand was directly placed on my neck. He said coldly:

“Demon girl, what is your purpose in approaching this king?”

I was so scared that tears welled up:

“Your Majesty spare my life!”

But inside, I was extremely busy: 【Purpose? Of course he survived.】 【Conveniently stay away from you. Your fate is too rigid, whoever gets involved with you will die, even a dog passing by will have its life shortened by three years.】 The Regent's sword suddenly stopped. 【Wait, why isn't he moving anymore?】 The Regent King coldly stared at me:

“Continue to think.”

Did he really hear it? I immediately lowered my eyes, pretending to appear weak and soft, as if I couldn't take care of myself. But in his heart, he slowly said: 【Actually, it's not like there's no way to solve it.】 Vuong Regent's breath slightly sank. I continued to make up nonsense in my heart: 【As long as he protects me every day, gives me money, has my back, kills less people, does more good deeds, after seventy-seven or forty-nine days, my luck will definitely change.】 The Regent was silent for a long time, and finally sheathed his sword.

“From today onwards, you stay at the Royal Palace.”

I bowed my head and wiped my tears. 【Success.】 As soon as I was brought into the Royal Palace, people from the Tham family chased me to the door. My father knelt on the steps, opened his mouth and said:

"Your Majesty, this woman has a malicious heart. She was only divorced by the To family three days ago, but now she has no shame and climbs up to cling to the Royal Palace, truly humiliating the family!"

I bowed my head, clutching half an old jade block in my sleeve. 【Resignation? It's To Kien Bach who wants to marry Tham Tri Y.】 【Clinging to the royal palace? It was you who tied me to the carriage and took me to the Royal Palace to take on the disaster for the Regent, block the murderous aura, and act as a substitute to relieve him.】 【Now that I'm not dead, I'm afraid that I'm really climbing up a high branch, so I'm starting to panic.】 Luc Thoi Dien stood next to me, his expression indifferent. Just now he even suspected that I was a demon girl. But at this moment, he suddenly tilted his head to look at me.

“Tham Thu Van.”

My heart suddenly jumped. Does he even know my name? I weakly spoke up:

“King.”

【It's over, he won't really believe that I can change fortunes, will he?】 Luc Thoi Dien looked at the crowd on the steps and asked faintly:

“She was sent by your Tham family?”

My father's face immediately stiffened. Tham Tri Y quickly stepped forward, tears in her eyes:

"Your Majesty, the elder sister has been capricious since she was young. She adored Young Master Su but didn't get any reciprocation, that's why she did such a foolish thing. The Tham family did not dare to deceive the Royal Family, only asked the Royal Family to hand her over to our custody."

I raised my head to look at her. Tham Tri Y wore a moon-white dress and a piece of white jade on her waist. That piece of jade... is mine. It's the piece of jade I dropped three years ago when I saved Luc Thoi Dien. I immediately understood why she ran over in such a hurry. She was afraid that I would enter the Royal Palace. I'm afraid Luc Thoi Dien will recognize me. Even more afraid that the life-saving benefactor that she stole will completely overturn the car. Luc Thoi Dien also saw that piece of jade. His eyes momentarily paused. Tham Tri Y seemed to have been waiting for this moment and gently raised his hand to hold Take the jade piece.

"Your Majesty, this piece of jade is an old thing that I left behind when I saved people on Tay Son three years ago. I came too hastily today, but instead made the Prince laugh."

I laughed inside. 【She's started it again.】 【Three years ago, there was an assassin attack on Tay Son. Luc Thoi Dien, covered in blood, fell into a pile of rocks. It was I who pulled out the arrow to stop the bleeding on his behalf, and hid him in the hunter's old house.】 【Tham Tri Y just took advantage of the time I went to boil water, secretly stole my jade piece, turned around and said the person who saved him was her.】 【Unfortunately she didn't know, that night when I stitched Luc Thoi Dien's wound, I used the reverse stitching technique. In this whole world, the only people who know that kind of needle technique are my mother and me.】
