Chapter 1 — The Crown Prince's Little Flower

The Emperor loved my mother but could not have her. To make up for his regret, he let me marry the prince whose appearance most resembled him. But Tieu Nghien Le didn't like me, and tried to humiliate me in bed. "The daughter born from a fox star is also a fox star." "That year, your mother also seduced my father like that?" I was so depressed that I died. When he was born again, he returned to the day when the emperor only kissed him. When he asked me which prince I liked, I shyly smiled: "The people have admired the prince for a long time."01The words just ended. The whole hall was as quiet as a sheet of paper, you could even hear a pin drop. The emperor's fingertips tapped rhythmically on the dragon's chair, his voice lowered. "You said you like the crown prince?" Anyone with eyes could see that the emperor was unhappy. When the emperor was still the fifth prince, during a trip to Jiangnan, he immediately met and fell in love with my mother. He used the fake name Long Tam, claiming to be a rich merchant from the capital, and he planned to spend his life with my mother. But my mother was just an ordinary lotus picker, and had little help in his quest. After weighing the pros and cons, he turned around and married the eunuch's daughter. By the time he ascended the throne, my mother had married someone else. From then on, it became the emperor's half-life regret. Later, when the emperor heard that my mother had passed away, he took me into the palace and raised me, dressing and living completely according to the standards of a princess. During the palace banquet, he even directly asked me which prince I liked. Golden mouth jade language, said he wanted to give me a kiss. But in the end, I am just the daughter of a merchant. Being favored by the emperor, but because of his mother's fate, compared to the noble royal family, there is still a difference between heaven and earth. I know my status is difficult, so I am careful everywhere. In my previous life, when the emperor asked me which prince I liked, I just knelt down in panic. Said that he did not dare to climb the prince's height. Actually, in the emperor's heart, there was already someone chosen. He loved my mother but couldn't have it, and wanted me to marry third prince Tieu Nghien Le, who looked the most like him. Asking me is just a formality. In the past life, the emperor did not bother to dissuade his ancestors and stubbornly granted me and Tieu Nghien Le a marriage. The whole capital admired my good fortune, one step flying up a high branch and turning into a phoenix. But I know, Tieu Nghien Le doesn't like me. My appearance is like my mother's, beautiful beauty. When I first entered the palace, most of the princes and princesses were curious about me. Only Tieu Nghien Le is full of malice. Every time he met me, he had to be cold and sarcastic. The Seventh Prince was still young, naively saying good things for me. "Sister Fairy is very good, not like what Third Brother said." "Sister Fairy?" The corner of Tieu Nghien Le's lips curled up in a mocking curve, "The seventh brother is still young, he doesn't know the evil of people's hearts." "A person with a beautiful appearance is not necessarily a fairy, but can also be a fox with an unpredictable heart." Tieu Nghien Le is a prince, and was soon appointed Prince An. He said I was no good, and after hearing it, others wouldn't ask him for confirmation. They only felt that I had done something behind my back that no one could know about, so he found out. From time to time, there are always people pointing fingers behind our backs. Saying I don't have good intentions, dreaming of seducing the prince. To ease the relationship between me and him, I tried to please him. But the cakes he brought were casually knocked over, and they were all covered in mud. Tieu Nghien Le still felt that his anger was not enough, so he pushed me down. "Don't even think about seducing me, a woman like you is disgusting to me!" I awkwardly tightened my skirt. If it weren't for the fear of him talking nonsense and ruining my reputation, then who would be sorry?

such condescension and ingratiation? What's more, he's still such an unreasonable person. Later we learn better. If you can't provoke him, avoid him. I soaked in the cold water for nearly half an hour, as if I wanted to catch wind and cold, so I had an excuse to close the door and rarely go out. But the peaceful days did not last long, and I was ordered to participate in the banquet. A decree decreed the marriage, firmly tying me and Tieu Nghien Le together. Although I had no sympathy for Tieu Nghien Le, once we got married, I also thought I would be a good wife for him. But Tieu Nghien Le doesn't want to give me this chance. On the wedding night, I did as my mother taught me, took off my shirt for him, and gently called him husband. The result in return was that a suitable cup of wine was abandoned. Tieu Nghien Le sat upright on the chair, looked at me being tormented by the drug, and mocked in a cold voice: "Looking at your current appearance, I'm afraid even the beauty in the castle would have to give in." At first, Tieu Nghien Le never touched me, but once he was drunk and made him break the rules, and later he crushed the chips without fear of them falling. In bed, he especially likes to talk about my mother. "Indeed, if there is a mother, there must be a daughter. A daughter born from a fox is also a fox." "What are you crying for? Isn't this what you want?" Tieu Nghien Le strangled me, forcing me to look at myself in the bronze mirror. "Did you learn this luscious appearance from your mother?" "That year, did she also use this enchanting appearance to seduce my father?" know, Tieu Nghien Le's mother was once jealous of the emperor because of a painting. Therefore, he angered the emperor and lost his sacred heart. On that painting is my mother. Everything Tieu Nghien Le did to me was to take revenge on his mother's behalf.03He was tormented by him for a long time. Our bodies and minds are tired and our bodies quickly decline. By the winter of my second year, I didn't even have the strength to get out of bed. The royal physician who came to examine my illness replaced one person after another, but even the white-bearded and white-haired royal physician repeatedly shook his head after checking my pulse, saying I didn't have much time left. Tieu Nghien Le's eyes turned red, he hugged me, his fingers trembling. "I don't allow you to die!" "Mother owes me money, what you owe me has not been paid yet!" "You must live, continue to atone for your mother's sins!" He offered a reward of hundreds of taels of gold, stubbornly looking for a teacher to find the cure. The result really let him find a capable wanderer. Each bowl of black toads pulled me back from the demon gate. Lost and then gained again, he sees me as a treasure. He hugged me for a moment and refused to let go. He gently patted my back and whispered softly. "Let's live well in the future." "No more talking about the past." From then on, Tieu Nghien Le treated me extremely well. The events of the past day seemed like just a nightmare. Eating a piece of peach blossom cake, he brought it to his lips, facing those eyes with a gentle smile. Gradually, we believe it's true. I really believe his words, I think we still have a future. Until I was diagnosed with the fever, I took no precautions and drank the bowl of medicine Tieu Nghien Le brought. There was a sharp pain in my stomach, the blood under my body stained a large area of my dress red. "Why?" I raised my head to look at him, the pain was so bad that I almost died. "Thanh Ha." Tieu Nghien Le hugged me, crying until his eyes turned red, "This child's blood is flowing from your mother, we can't keep it." "I can forgive you, because you are the woman I love the most, but I cannot accept this child." "I have betrayed my mother once, I cannot betray her a second time." "Forget this child, from now on you will still be the woman I love the most." Blood and tears slipped from the corner of my eyes, my heart grew cold. inches, no longer feeling half of the warmth. Pepper

Nghien Le cannot forget the hatred, nor can we forget the child he killed with his own hands. Tieu Nghien Le's birthday. I personally went to the kitchen and made a bowl of longevity noodles. Tieu Nghien Le was extremely touched, holding my hand, with guilt in his eyes. "Except for the child, I can give you everything." "In the future, I will make it up to you a hundred times over." I smiled gently and poured him some wine. No more after this. When the poison attacks, it hurts more than you imagine, but you feel extremely refreshed. This time, Tieu Nghien Le asked me. "Why?" I looked at him, also bleeding like me, smiling and laughing until tears fell. "No reason." I'm just tired, I don't want to continue to mess with him anymore. This life, the next life, life after life. 04 Remembering all the stories of the past life, in the mouth is like holding a royal lotus, bitter and acrid, not going away. Facing the emperor's probing eyes. I tried to hold back my bitterness, pretending to be innocent. "Yes, the people admire His Highness the Crown Prince." Time seemed to be extended indefinitely. It wasn't until my back was about to be soaked in cold sweat that the emperor finally opened his mouth. "Okay, I'm just asking casually." I breathed a sigh of relief, knowing I had bet correctly. Because what the emperor wants is a mutually approved and destined marriage, not a forced marriage under his coercion. I have escaped a lifetime.05After the palace banquet ended, I followed everyone out of the main hall. The cold night wind blew across my face, taking away some of my impatience. I let out a long breath. Luckily, the decree has not yet been issued, things still have a way to turn around. I was thinking about how to change the emperor's mind, when Tieu Nghien Le's voice suddenly rang out in my ear. "Do you like the crown prince?" His eyes fell on me. Like a poisonous snake, cold and sticky. I quietly stepped back, widening the distance between me and him. "Who I like, it seems to have nothing to do with King An." Tieu Nghien Le narrowed his eyes, step by step forcing me into the corner. He lowered his head to look at me for a moment, then pulled his lips to reveal a mocking smile. "This king is not interested in who you like, just curious why your skin is so thick." "The position of crown prince is not something that can be climbed up with a little trickery." "Want to marry the crown prince? You also don't see for yourself whether you are worthy or not." Tieu Nghien Le's face was full of disdain, as if it was really simple. pure contempt for me. But there was jealousy in his eyes that he couldn't hide. In my previous life, after I recovered from a serious illness, Tieu Nghien Le considered me a treasure. While making wine to make tea, he once confided his feelings to me. "Actually, the first day I met you, I was moved." "It's just because of your background, I don't dare admit that I love you, I can only always use hatred to paralyze myself." Mentioning the times he had made things difficult in the past, he deeply regretted. "In the future, I will definitely make it up to you..." Unfortunately, my forgiveness was in exchange for a bowl of rice. T.“In the future, I will definitely make it up to you well…” Unfortunately, my forgiveness was in exchange for a bowl of medicine that took my child's life. took my child's life. I pressed down the hatred rolling under my eyes and sarcastically responded. "No need to worry about King An." Knowing what could make him angriest, I shyly smiled: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once said he liked me..." A soft laugh came from my ear. I turned my head to follow the sound. A figure stepped up the steps and slowly walked to the front of the palace. It's crown prince Tieu Thua An.06I was stunned. At this time in his previous life, Tieu Thua An was still providing relief in Giang Nam. Why does this life return so early? I don't know how much he heard of those words just now. My face heated up and I averted my gaze. Actually, I'm not lying. Crown Prince Tieu Thua An actually said he liked me, but that's about it

in a previous life.
