The lineage of the Imperial Master, since the founding of the dynasty, has possessed the ability to understand destiny and comprehend the art of the stars...

Tang Wan's father died mysteriously during the Chaotian Ceremony a year ago. The explanation given by the palace was that his father had offended the gods and was punished by being thrown off a high platform. Even his body was smashed into a pulp.

At that time, Tang Wan was still a girl waiting to be married. She had secretly pledged her life to the Fourth Prince, Feng Linyuan, and was only waiting for Chao Tianli's father to return and Feng Linyuan to propose marriage.

Tang Wan had even embroidered a mandarin duck quilt, but what she received was such news. Even the body... the body was buried in secret, because the explanation given by the monarch was that God was angry and the Imperial Master's Mansion did not even allow a funeral.

Tang Wan was so anxious that she had no time to think about marriage. She immediately took a carriage to the palace and knelt in the palace for a day and a night just to get her father's body back.

However, the monarch in the palace still refused to see guests. Tang Wan didn't understand. It was okay that her father died tragically, but why didn't the palace even give her her father's body?

Tang Wan was very fragile, but at the same time, she was also very strong. When she learned about this, she did not cry blindly, but went to beg the ministers in the court, those whom she called uncles. However, no one could help with the matter of the national teacher, so they could only refuse to see him. Therefore, Tang Wan knelt in the palace for a day and a night.

Later, Tang Wan was brought back to the mansion by Feng Linyuan, but Tang Wan still refused to eat or drink, did not say a word, and began to lose weight. Feng Linyuan had no choice but to tell Tang Wan the truth.

He discovered that there was something wrong with his brother a month before the Chaotian Ceremony. At that time, Feng Linyuan entered the palace, ready to ask his brother to arrange a marriage for him and Tang Wan. However, outside the palace gate, there was not a single eunuch, not even a guard. Feng Linyuan was of noble status, and the emperor gave him special permission to enter the palace directly without notifying him.

At that moment, through the reflection of the lamp, the shadow of a giant python was projected on the door frame. From the bedroom, a woman's screams were heard. The sound was shrill, like the wailing of a wild ghost...

A maid disappeared in the palace, but it was normal for a maid to die in the palace, let alone disappear.

The Heaven-facing Ceremony was originally held by the Imperial Master for the imperial dynasty, to pray to the heavens for blessings and for the prosperity of the dynasty. But that day, no one knew what happened on that high platform. All they remembered was that the Imperial Master fell heavily from the sky like a bird with broken wings. Yes, he was smashed into a meat pie...

His brother immediately dealt with the matter, but Feng Linyuan clearly saw that there was still blood at the corner of the emperor's mouth. Feng Linyuan wanted to return the body to Tang Wan, but the emperor refused very coldly and even rewarded Feng Linyuan with thirty strokes of the cane.

Feng Linyuan clearly realized that his brother had changed. Thinking of the shadow he saw that day, he couldn't help but wonder if his brother was controlled by a snake demon.

In fact, the reason why the lineage of the National Master is so mysterious is not because they have the ability to communicate with the sky, but because they are born with a pair of wise eyes that can see clearly all the demons and ghosts in this world.

In order to appease the people, the emperor summoned Tang Wan into the palace and gave her many things. However, that day was one that Tang Wan would never forget. The person sitting on the dragon throne was not a person, but a python with colorful patterns all over its body. Every time the emperor spoke, the snake's tongue would move back and forth in its mouth.

Although Tang Wan was shocked in her heart, she still looked at the emperor respectfully. Everything she heard was not important. What Tang Wan was sure of was that she wanted revenge.
