In the cold palace, gusts of cold wind seemed to blow from all directions, chilling one to the bone.

At this moment, Ah Li was standing in a corner of the Cold Palace when someone, backlit by the light, gave her a bag of silver. "Take good care of him, after all, he is also a prince."

Ah Li's eyes gleamed as she stared at the bag of money, her greedy expression immediately recognizable. She added, "Don't worry, Master, I will make sure everything is arranged perfectly."

The man also gave Ahri a bottle of medicine, saying, "If that person doesn't listen to you, give him some of this."

"OK."

Ah Li took the bag of money and the bottle of medicine and put them into his sleeve.

The man was wearing a black cloak, and his face was not even visible.

Ahri took out some silver from the bag, put it in her mouth and took a bite. It was real.

The original owner was a palace maid who was not favored by the emperor and looked down on the eunuchs. She did not want to become a lover with someone, so she thought that she could leave the palace when she reached a certain age.

As a result, because she had previously refused to become a eunuch's lover, and that eunuch had powerful connections in the palace and had a godfather, he arranged for her to be sent to the cold palace.

Once in the Cold Palace, the original owner knew that if she wanted to leave the palace again, she would need to bribe officials with money.

Therefore, she became a money-grubbing palace maid in the cold palace.

Unfortunately, the original owner took this person's money but didn't do a good job. He was the type who took the money but didn't get anything done, and he was killed by the person.

Ahri weighed the money bag in her hand; it was rather heavy.

In this world, Ahri once unbound herself from a host. That host completed her mission and received a pretty good rating. Instead of returning to her original world, she chose to stay in this one.

Because in this world, she was a prince of a different surname, wielding military power. Even the emperor dared not breathe too loudly in her presence. What happened next, Ah Li did not know.

Now, if that person were still alive, they wouldn't remember that she was once bound to a system.

This day

In the abandoned Cold Palace courtyard, the Seventh Prince Su Wenqin, who had been sent there, was temporarily blind due to an eye injury.

At this moment, he was groping around, familiarizing himself with everything around him, and there were several steps under his feet.

He didn't notice, and continued walking slowly forward.

Even though he was very careful, he still missed a step.

At that moment, Ah Li walked up and hugged the man tightly, saying in a sarcastic tone, "Where did this young man come from, so eager to throw himself into my arms?"

"Get out of my way!"

Su Wenqin had been starving for several days and still had some strength, but he just couldn't move Ah Li.

At this moment, Ali lowered her head and kissed Su Wenqin's cheek, and finding the cloth strip binding his eyes in the way, she simply ripped it off.

Ahri, clutching the strip of cloth, laughed smugly, "You think you're still the high and mighty Seventh Prince? I think you're just blind. Now that you're in this Cold Palace, who cares about your former status!"

Her laughter was like a knife, stabbing at the Seventh Prince again and again, causing him a sharp pain.

Su Wenqin covered his eyes with his hand; his eyes could not tolerate strong light.

Soon after, blood began to flow from the corner of his eye, and he cried out, "Give it back to me!"

"Sure, if you make me happy, I'll repay you."

Ali even reached out and touched Su Wenqin's face; it was very smooth, tender, and elastic.

Su Wenqin, feeling deeply humiliated and angry, said in the direction of Ali, "I hope you won't fall into my hands again."

Upon hearing this, Ali grabbed Su Wenqin's chin and said, "You need to understand, you're in my hands now. Whether you live to see the future depends on my mood."

"you!"

Su Wenqin's injured eye couldn't open, and he had been drugged, leaving him weak. Otherwise, he would have definitely killed this person!

Ali couldn't stand Su Wenqin's stubborn attitude, so she took out the porcelain bottle from her sleeve, forcefully held him down, and fed him the contents, saying, "You'd better behave yourself from now on!"

"What did you give me to drink?!"

Su Wenqin struggled, but Ah Li's grip was too strong, and he couldn't dodge it at all. The whole bottle of medicine was poured into Su Wenqin's mouth.

The next second, Su Wenqin collapsed to the ground, his hands clenched into fists, filled with hatred!

He hated those who framed him, he hated his father who wouldn't listen to his explanation, and now he hated the man in front of him even more.

Ali squatted down, reached out and grabbed Su Wenqin's hair, forcing him to look up. "Looks like this medicine is good stuff!"

Ah Li carefully observed the blush on Su Wenqin's face and the fine sweat on his forehead. She moved closer and said, "Do you still think you're the high and mighty Seventh Prince? Well then, I'll have some fun with you today."

"You dare!"

"Why wouldn't I dare? I've never had the chance to toy with a prince before!"

Ali grabbed Su Wenqin, dragged him into the room, tore his clothes open, and then pressed herself against him.

"Get out of my way!"

Su Wenqin wanted to shout, but he could only lie there helplessly, unable even to push away the person in front of him.

Several sounds of clothes tearing rang out, and Ah Li, who had just kissed her several times, felt a chill.

Immediately afterwards, a chilling voice rang out from behind, "Enough."

The next second, Ah Li withdrew her hand from Su Wenqin's waist, got off him, and lost her previous arrogant and lustful demeanor. Instead, she looked at the newcomer with a fawning expression, "Master, you've arrived."

The man didn't speak, but instead looked at Su Wenqin, who was lying motionless on the bed.

At this moment, Su Wenqin tilted his head slightly in their direction, "Third Brother?"

Was all of this arranged by him? Why?!
