In this novel, the Xie family has been loyal through generations, with many sons sacrificing themselves for the country. Despite this, they are still viewed with suspicion by the emperor, who decre...
A year after the death of the first wife, Xie Er, she was elevated to the rank of concubine.
But in Xie Li's heart, Wang Shi was no different from her own mother.
Her mother left when she was two years old.
Wang had always taken good care of her.
When she had a high fever, it was Wang who took care of her without taking off her clothes.
When she was afraid of thunder at night, she would hold her and sing lullabies to lull her to sleep.
When she got married, it was she who stayed up all night sewing her wedding dress.
Therefore, every time a matchmaker came to her door to arrange a marriage for her father to take a second wife, she would invariably drive them away.
Because in her heart, no woman could do better than Wang Shi.
After marriage, when she was bullied by her husband's family and returned to her parents' home to cry and complain, it was Wang who led people to her parents' home to seek justice for her.
Even though her in-laws mocked her for being nothing more than a lowly concubine, she never backed down an inch.
Because of her reasoned arguments and threats, her life in her husband's family became much more stable.
This time, when she was kicked out of her husband's family home, it was she who comforted her.
She secretly ordered someone to pour a wall full of excrement onto the door and courtyard wall of her husband's house.
Her in-laws were ridiculed as a result.
It gave her a good venting of her anger!
Unfortunately, her father passed away before he could officially recognize Wang as his wife.
This ensures that, according to her household registration, she can only ever be a concubine for the rest of her life.
Wang didn't care much about being promoted to the position of official wife; she just wanted to take good care of her children.
Especially Xie Li.
After all, she had promised that person.
They will treat Xie Li as their own daughter and will never reveal the secret of her origins...
