Chapter 1
Chapter 1 — This little sister plotted to harm me, but I didn't expect that this life would lead me to a dead end
During the spring banquet, my concubine's fiance and I were caught cheating in bed. After just one night, I became the most shameless lady in the capital. The younger sister cried until she cried, saying that her wish would be fulfilled for us. That marriage eventually changed to me. And she remarried to Ninh Vuong palace and became a concubine. After getting married, Co Truong Phong always believed that I had long dreamed of him, so I ruined my reputation and exposed this situation. From then on, he was cold and merciless towards me, freely trampled on and humiliated me, and never showed me even half the gentleness. Until the news that his younger sister had difficulty giving birth passed away. Co Truong Phong personally forced me to drink the entire cup of poisoned wine.
"The crane took over the guest bird's nest, you killed my Nhi Nhi, you should have gone down and buried her with her."
Poisonous wine penetrates the intestines, I hold on to hatred and die. When he opened his eyes again, his whole body felt hot and limp, and a sweet scent lingered at the tip of his nose. I have returned to the room that made me irresistible that year. Wooden bed with carved flowers and dark red curtains. The copper furnace in the corner of the room was hovering, emitting blue smoke. Outside the window, the sound of the Guan Xuan flute could be heard. Indeed, it was that room. Didn't have time to think too much. I tried to resist the burning heat rising in my body, rolling and crawling from the bed and falling down. One hand threw away the copper furnace. The incense ashes were scattered in all directions, and the sweet scent finally faded a bit. I adjusted my dress and staggered towards the door. Pushed twice, the door still didn't budge. The door latch was locked from the outside. My heart sank. The wooden door is both thick and heavy, and cannot be broken open with my strength. The scent that was inhaled before is still effective. Consciousness of each battle is dizzying. I bit the tip of my tongue hard, only then was I a little more alert. I quickly walked to the window, the window was unlocked. I pushed open a small crack, outside was a narrow alley, at this moment there was no one in sight. Just climb out and take advantage of the darkness to return to the lobby. While thinking like that, a heavy gasp suddenly came from behind. I stiffened. Turn around. The curtains moved slightly, and a shadow of a person could be seen falling and falling inside the edge of the bed. Her clothes were disheveled, her face was red, and her chest was heaving violently. It's Co Truong Phong. He was hit harder than me, and his whole body was in a daze. I lifted the bed curtain and faced his burning red eyes. He instinctively rushed forward. I leaned aside and pulled down the silver hairpin from my bun. Aiming straight at his thigh, without any hesitation, he stabbed down hard. The intense pain caused Co Truong Phong to choke out a low groan and suddenly open his eyes. Seeing it was me, his eyes immediately flashed with disgust, gritting his teeth and gritting out each word: "To Cam Thu, it's really you! How dare you..." I'm too lazy to waste words on him.
“Co Truong Phong,” I took a step back and spoke very quickly, “listen carefully, I don't have time to explain too much to you, this room has been burned with incense, the door was also locked from the outside, you and I were both planned to be brought in here by others.”
He pressed on the wound and the corner His mouth pulled out a sarcastic smile: "Not you?"
“It's To Lien Nhuy.” I speak frankly.
Co Truong Phong's eyes paused. I looked at him, saying each word clearly:
"Today is the spring banquet, my dress accidentally got wet, so I came to this room to change clothes. After entering here, I smelled a sweet scent, making my whole body hot and weak, and my mind was in a daze."
“Think about it too, how did you end up in this room?”
"It's all because To Lien Nhuy doesn't want to marry you, that's why she staged this scene. Just another half cup of tea, she'll bring someone to open this door, and then everyone will see us in the same room."
Co Truong Phong's pupils shrank slightly, his eyes staring intently at me.
“You don't believe it?”
I laughed coldly: "You touch your conscience and think about it. How many times have I met you, To Cam Thu? How many words have I told you? Why do I have to ruin my reputation just because I want to marry you? I am the daughter of the Great General's palace, and what are you? Is it worth me having to waste my time planning like that?"
