At that time, she was just an unpopular princess, and all she thought about every day was how to escape the ridicule of her other brothers and sisters and the methods that the concubines used to transfer it to herself and her younger brother because of her mother.
She and her brother endured it again and again, but in exchange the concubines in the harem resorted to even more shocking methods.
Afterwards, the two of them were forced to have no choice but to participate in the heir apparent in order to survive.
The first person she set her sights on was Shen Yicheng, the eldest son of Yanzhou who had been king in Yanzhou for generations and now came to Kyoto for the first time.
The future King of Yanzhou has a lot of troops. If she marries Shen Yicheng, then she and her brother will be more likely to succeed in seizing the throne.
Therefore, Xiao Lianyi, who had always lived in the deep palace and was cautious, stood out in front of the sisters for the first time and captured everyone's attention at the palace banquet.
Of course, this also includes the prince of Yanzhou, Shen Yicheng.
Looking at Shen Yicheng, who was full of beard but behaved as elegantly as a scholar, Xiao Lianyi couldn't help but look down on him.
Isn't this just arty?
But after all, I have something to ask for, so I should endure it.
Shen Yicheng seemed to be somewhat interested in her, so he excused himself to leave the table. Not long after he left, Shen Yicheng followed him, walking three or four steps behind him, as if the word "Shou Li" was engraved in his bones.
Xiao Lianyi felt in her heart that this man was quite interesting, but he was different from the romantic young men who were addicted to beauty as written in the story books, so Xiao Lianyi thought of teasing Shen Yicheng.
She stopped suddenly, and Shen Yicheng accidentally bumped into her back.
Xiao Lianyi exclaimed, as if she just realized there was someone behind her.
Chi Yi didn't expect that he would do such a rude thing. He not only followed the princess secretly, but also bumped into her back.
Chi Yi had never been so close to a woman before. With a red face, he apologized to Xiao Lianyi repeatedly.
But because of his nervousness, Chi Yi's words were not only stumbling, but also incoherent.
Xiao Lianyi made a "puff" sound and was amused by Chi Yi.
Seeing Xiao Lianyi smiling, even though Chi Yi didn't know why the princess was laughing, he also laughed stupidly.
This was the first time Chi Yi saw the princess smile, and he realized that the frosty princess could also smile, and her smile was even more beautiful.
The Chi family in Kyoto has made many achievements over the years. Their ancestors have produced countless ministers and ministers, and they did not participate in party disputes, so they are highly trusted by successive emperors. Therefore, when Chi Yi was young, he was lucky enough to follow his mother into the palace, and met the man who, no matter how much his brothers and sisters bullied him, his face remained cold and cold. Angry princess.
From then on, the princess lived in Chi Yi's heart.
Unexpectedly, we met again today after so many years.
"I hope the princess will forgive me for being rude..." Chi Yi repeatedly accused him.
Xiao Lianyi looked at Chi Yi intently with her beautiful eyes, and asked in a leisurely and confusing tone: "What crime are you guilty of?"
When Chi Yi saw Xiao Lianyi like this, he didn't even have the courage to take another look. He quickly lowered his head and replied: "I... I... I shouldn't bump into the princess."
The stumbling and cautious look amused Xiao Lianyi.
It would be okay if I could live with such an interesting person for the rest of my life.
But if Shen Yicheng knew his purpose and means, would he be as stupid as he is today...
She had no choice but to come up with such a strategy.
The king of Yanzhou holds great power and has high officials. The princes, generals and ministers all want to marry their daughters to the future king of Yanzhou.
She is a princess without a prominent maternal family, no mother-in-law to support her, and no father-in-law’s love. She is left with only skin...
