When I was three years old, my mother died, and I became a person that everyone could bully.

My mother's favor is only temporary, like a flash in the pan.

But it still offended the queen.

My father is not in his right mind. Sometimes he is lucid and sometimes he is not. He doesn't care about me and my mother at all.

The so-called grace is nothing more than staying overnight a few times when you are sober in the eyes of outsiders.

After my mother died, the servants started to treat me differently. They first tried to give me some rotten food, and then when no one cared, they became even more aggressive and started to kick and beat me.

Whenever those palace maids and eunuchs were unhappy, they would take their anger out on me.

I wanted to tell my father, but I couldn't see him anywhere. From then on, I was alone in the empty palace.

That day, a snow-white rabbit jumped out from the backyard.

Its fur and even its eyes were pure, so pure that it seemed out of place in this yard.

I don't know where it came from, I hid it.

Every day, I would leave the only clean steamed bun for it to eat.

That is the only little rabbit that brings me happiness.

With it, the cold food even tastes a little better.

The good times didn’t last long, and the rabbit was discovered by a little eunuch.

On this day, someone I had never seen before came to me.

She was wearing gorgeous palace clothes, and I heard the eunuchs and palace maids call her the Queen.

My mother told me that I would call the Queen Mother.

"Mother." I called out timidly when I was four years old.

The Queen slapped me on the face.

I really can't understand how such a pretty face could have such a horrifying expression.

Her face was grim. "You are worthy of calling me mother? You are just born to a palace maid, so lowly."

I didn't cry, I just lowered my head.

The queen had the rabbit captured and she strangled it to death in front of me.

I watched the little rabbit struggle with its limbs until it slowly lost its breath.

I didn't even know when my face turned cold.

Did I actually cry?

Ever since my mother died, I never cried even when I was beaten half to death. This time, I couldn't help but shed tears.

I wiped away my tears and thought about what my mother had said to me.

"Huai'er, you have to know that the sadder we act, the happier those people will be. Only when we show no expression will they think it's meaningless and won't attack you again.

After your mother leaves, you must live well. You must be patient until you have no strength...'

Perhaps, my mother already knew that she would die.

Otherwise he wouldn't have said that to me.

I pulled my hands into my sleeves and clenched them into fists.

I gritted my teeth and stopped myself from crying.

“Hehe~”

The queen sneered, looked down at me, and threw the rabbit at my feet.

"She looks exactly like that slut. She is obviously a maid in my palace, but she seduced the mentally ill emperor..." The queen stopped talking halfway, her face looking unpleasant.

She was just taking her anger out on my mother.

It was obviously not the mother who seduced the father, but the father who forced the mother.

The queen resented the emperor so much that he refused to touch her when she was not sober, and instead touched a palace maid who was cleaning the room.

This was a slap in her face.

The queen pinched my face, her eyes vicious.

"A lowly creature like you deserves to be stepped on by others all your life. I deliberately let that rabbit in, and now I killed it myself, just to tell you that you can only live a humble life. So humble that you don't deserve anything! Not only the rabbit, but also the throne. From now on, you have to help your eldest brother, do you hear me?"

"I heard it." I murmured.

The queen patted my face and left satisfied.

I stood there with my head down.

After the queen left, some palace maids and eunuchs started beating and kicking me again.

I said nothing and lay on the ground with an expressionless face.

"Bah, this bastard is so boring~" The little eunuch spat at me, clapped his hands and left.

I climbed up, picked up the rabbit and buried it.

At the age of eleven, hunting in winter.

The sober father took some of us princes out.

At that time, I also knew that my father was not actually mentally ill, and he was just pretending.

I felt hopeless.

What is true and what is false? The royal family is indeed ruthless...

I was hunting on horseback.

Suddenly, a group of men in black came with swords.

I don't know where this is either. I abandoned my horse and fled into the mountains.

But I was still injured. I gritted my teeth and kept running away. My mother told me to live well.

I can’t die…

Before I fainted, I fell in the snow, and I seemed to see my mother holding the little rabbit and smiling at me.

At this moment, a tender female voice came to my ears.

[What's going on? How did this person get in? Did he climb over from the mountain? ]

[Who cares? This guy's injuries clearly show that he's being hunted. I can't take care of this mess. Whoever wants to save him can do so!]

I wanted to raise my head, but I had no strength and could only move my fingers.

If no one rescued me, I would probably freeze to death even if I didn't bleed to death.

I don't want to die.

Maybe God heard my prayers and sent someone to rescue me.

Coincidentally, I was rescued by the girl's father.

It’s the time and it’s the fate.

Later, I heard what the girl was thinking and found out that it was my eldest brother who sent people to kill me.

My fifth brother just said a few words to me, and my eldest brother wanted to kill me.

No, maybe it wasn’t someone sent by Big Brother, but the Queen.

She was afraid that I would betray my fifth brother, but I really just said a few insignificant words to him.

I stayed at the Su family.

Qingshan Village is really a place of hidden talents, not only the old general Guan, but also Zhao Xuan from the Zhao family.

There was even someone who was the son of Princess Pingyang.

I like this peaceful life, and I also met someone who looks very much like Bunny.

Her name is Wang Lin.

Its nose was red from the cold and its eyes were watery, it really looked like a little rabbit.

I couldn't help but look at it again and again.

Later, Qingyi came to talk to me.

She said, "If you come back with me, the master will avenge your mother, and you only need to obey the master."

I agreed, this condition was really tempting.

I left, thinking that the little rabbit and I would never see each other again.

The queen was banished to the cold palace, and Fu Yuan sent me to Yongning Palace, but I didn't want her to die at all.

I think living is more painful than dying.

At the palace banquet, I met Su Yun again, but Wang Lin did not come to the capital with her.

I felt bored, so I lowered my presence and huddled in a corner.

Listening to the chattering of hearts and the voices of everyone at the palace banquet, I felt as if I were out of this world.

It seems like they and I are not from the same world at all.

Later, my father wanted to kill the Su family, so the Su family left the capital.

But Su Yun disappeared.

It was also that year that Wang Lin came to Beijing.

The little girl was asking around the capital about the Su family, so I hurried out to tell her.

Wang Lin cried so much that she looked like a tearful person, and looked even more like a little rabbit.

Another year has passed.

Fu Yuan told me that the prince was going to take action and he would push me into that position.

I told Fu Yuan, "I regret it now. You can kill me or chop me up as you please. I've fallen in love with someone, and I don't want to be in that position. She is pure and innocent, and doesn't belong in a golden cage. I want to live freely with her. From now on, I wish to be with her for the rest of my life..."

Fu Yuan said, "Are you sure you like her? And not just possessive desire?"

I'm sure! I like her.

I asked myself this question a year ago, and now I finally understand my own heart.

When we first met, maybe it was because Wang Lin looked like a little rabbit.

But after a year of getting along, I understand Wang Lin better.

Wang Lin is really a crybaby, but she is also quite resilient.

She is contradictory, and it is this contradiction that deeply attracts me.

I also want to find my own happiness.

This wait lasted until Linlin was sixteen years old.

I smiled and asked her, "Linlin, Su Yun is back, isn't it time for us to get married?"

"Um."

The beloved was extremely shy, with a blush all over her face.

I suppressed the urge to hug her tightly and instead carefully held her hand.

That’s great, mother, look, I have found my own happiness and will have my own family!
