The emperor and the prime minister's youngest daughter met during an incognito visit and soon developed feelings for each other. However, due to the long-standing animosity between the prime minister and the emperor, they went through several rounds of entanglements before finally getting together.

[Target characters: Male lead Mo Chenyuan, male supporting character Xiao Zijue]

In the world of strategy games, Jiang Tian enjoys immersion.

Having grasped the plot, her eyes changed, and when she looked up again, she was the older concubine in the original story, portrayed as ambitious and greedy, wanting to rise in rank, but unfortunately dying in childbirth.

Xiao Zijue is unwilling to marry yet, but he already has quite a few concubines in his household, all of whom were promoted by his mother, who hopes that these women can bear him children.

Unfortunately, Xiao Zijue rarely stepped into the backyard, making it extremely difficult for these women to even catch a glimpse of him.

It was already night, and the servant had not yet announced the arrival of the prince, which meant that the prince would not be coming.

Jiang Tian finished washing up early, took off her outer garment, and prepared to go to sleep.

She was an older concubine, twenty-nine years old and still hadn't won the prince's favor. Her future was hopeless, and no one would fawn over her. She had no maids or servants.

She usually lived in the most secluded courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, and luckily the kitchen remembered to feed her.

I was about to lie down when the window moved.

Jiang Tian had no choice but to get up. She looked around and saw heavy dark clouds in the sky with flashes of lightning, so she knew it was going to rain soon.

She walked to the window, and just as she was about to close it tightly, a figure suddenly entered the room through the window, and a large hand suddenly covered her mouth.

Before she could even utter a cry of alarm, the man threatened in her ear, "Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you."

Jiang Tian's hair stood on end, her whole body stiffened, and she was so frightened that she couldn't move.

Mo Chenyuan had not expected that the assassins would be so bold as to launch a surprise attack while he was traveling incognito.

He didn't have enough bodyguards, and in the end, all of them sacrificed their lives to give him a chance to survive.

The night was very dark, and his left arm was still bleeding, so he had to find a place to hide.

Unable to discern directions, he arrived at this small courtyard.

With the heavy rain approaching, he knew that the group of assassins would not be able to find him in the downpour. If he could just get through this night, he would definitely tear them to pieces tomorrow.

Mo Chenyuan covered the woman's mouth with one hand to keep her from making a sound, while on the other hand, he tightly closed the window.

Just then, a loud "boom" was heard outside, and a torrential downpour began.

“I’m going to let you go, but if you make a sound, I’ll snap your neck.”

Jiang Tian nodded vigorously.

The room lights were out, so Mo Chenyuan couldn't see the other person's face, but he was pressed tightly against the woman at that moment.

It was a summer night, and the woman was not wearing an outer garment, so Mo Chenyuan could clearly perceive the breathtaking beauty of her figure.

Sensing her movement, Mo Chenyuan released his hand.

The woman was so frightened that her legs went weak; if it weren't for his arm blocking her way, she would have collapsed to the ground long ago.

Now she was completely nestled in his arms.

The unusual touch made Mo Chenyuan feel slightly awkward. He said in a deep voice, "Do you have any medicine here to treat sprains and bruises?"

Seeing that the other party hadn't killed her, Jiang Tian forced herself to remain calm and nodded slightly: "Yes...yes."

Mo Chenyuan's ears twitched, but his voice was soft and pleasant.

"Find it."

Jiang Tian opened the bottom box and took out several bottles of medicine.

Mo Chenyuan held it to his nose and smelled it; it was indeed for treating sprains and bruises.

He continued to command: "Take off the clothes on my left arm and give me the medicine."

His voice was extremely intimidating, and Jiang Tian was terrified.

At that moment, all she wanted was to live. She said "yes" in a trembling voice and began to move cautiously.

She had worked as a maid, so she naturally knew how to serve people.

Feeling those soft, boneless little hands carefully applying medicine to his left arm, Mo Chenyuan leaned against the window and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sir, the medicine has been applied."

Not only did she apply the ointment, but Jiang Tian also specially took a piece of silk that she usually couldn't bear to use to make clothes and wrapped it up for him.

Feeling that the wound was less painful and properly bandaged, the gloom in Mo Chenyuan's eyes dissipated considerably.

The rain outside continued to fall, and Jiang Tian dared not even breathe loudly inside the room.

With the pain slightly relieved, Mo Chenyuan looked up at Jiang Tian.

He couldn't actually see her face clearly.

The lights are already off; if they were turned back on, something might happen.

The darkness was actually safer for Mo Chenyuan.

He could only make out Jiang Tian's general outline, and even Jiang Tian found the medicine by feeling.

The two people were not far apart, but neither knew who the other was.

Which company are you from?

"This area is full of officials' and noble families," Mo Chenyuan asked.

Jiang Tian didn't dare to utter a sound.

"say!"

Jiang Tian trembled, suppressing her fear, her voice trembling with tears: "I... I can't tell you that I'm someone else's concubine. If anyone finds out that a man has broken in, I'll surely be dead..."

Upon hearing that she was someone else's concubine, Mo Chenyuan's eyes darkened.

But he knew that Jiang Tian was right; it was better for her not to tell him her name or who he was.

So he stopped asking.

She patted herself down and realized she hadn't brought her purse, so Mo Chenyuan's plan to give her some money had fallen through.

The two of them were in different places in the room. Just as Jiang Tian was about to fall asleep, she heard a noise and immediately opened her eyes.

It was still pitch black outside, but the rain had stopped.

Mo Chenyuan quickly tidied his belongings and stood up.

He looked towards Jiang Tian, ​​wanting to talk to her, but found that she had her back to him.

A posture of complete resistance.

As the supreme ruler, Mo Chenyuan had never been so disliked by anyone.
