A gentle man helped her drive away those people. The man wore a silver crown, had jet-black hair, and was covered with a purple brocade robe.
He bent down, used his slender fingertips to wipe the dirt off her face with a handkerchief, and then placed the handkerchief in Xie Shizhu's palm.
She heard the palace maids calling him, "Third Prince."
In the days that followed, the Third Prince would always stand by her side to protect her. At that time, Xie Shizhu fell uncontrollably in love with the Third Prince.
Even though she knew she was a captive of a conquered nation, she still couldn't contain her emotions.
However, once in a while, she was stopped by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the current Emperor, Yan Chou.
Yan Chou just wanted to see who it was and asked the Third Prince to protect her countless times.
Xie Shizhu has bright almond-shaped eyes, skin as white as cream, a straight nose, and extremely attractive pink lips.
When Yan Chou saw Xie Shizhu, his heart was inevitably confused, but he was the Crown Prince, so naturally he would not like a prisoner.
It was not until he ascended the throne that he forced Xie Shizhu to marry her against her will.
The third prince was also named regent.
However, the person Xie Shizhu liked was the Regent Yan Xiu Ran. He met with Yan Xiu Ran several times behind Yan Chou's back, which annoyed Yan Chou.
Yan Chou has a strange personality and is invincible in killing. He will start killing people if he disagrees with something.
Because Xie Shizhu had a secret meeting with Yan Xiuran, he was furious and killed all the servants in Jin'an Palace where Xie Shizhu lived.
In the end, Xie Shizhu was imprisoned in the cold palace.
Judging from the plot, the original owner was not a cannon fodder, but her malice value of 100 indicated that things were not simple.
During the years that Xie Shizhu stayed in the cold palace, Yan Chou found a substitute, a woman who was somewhat similar to Xie Shizhu.
Because he was offended by Xie Shizhu, Yan Chou took his anger out on his stand-in Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan and Xie Shizhu have completely different personalities. She is obedient and submissive, and does whatever Yan Chou says, which soon makes Yan Chou fall into it.
Yan Xiuran has been trying to find a way to rescue Xie Shizhu from the cold palace. When he was on his way to the palace, he met a woman who looked like Xie Shizhu and was shocked for a long time.
Yan Xiuran couldn't get close to the cold palace where Xie Shizhu lived, so he could only treat Lin Xuan as Xie Shizhu's substitute.
Lin Xuan instantly became the object of competition between the two men.
Lin Xuan thought Yan Chou loved her, but Yan Xiuran told her that she was just a substitute for Yan Chou's white moonlight. Lin Xuan burst into tears and fled the palace alone.
Yan Chou searched the entire palace but could not find Lin Xuan. At this time, Xie Shizhu, who was in the cold palace, had been completely forgotten by the two men.
She was still foolishly waiting in the cold palace for Yan Xiuran to save her.
Finally, Yan Chou found Lin Xuan in a brothel in Xihe State, and Lin Xuan was almost hurt at that time.
Lin Xuan cried and said that someone wanted to harm her and sold her to a brothel.
When he saw the woman he had lost and found again, Yan Chou realized that he had fallen in love with Lin Xuan.
Yan Chou then thoroughly investigated who had framed Lin Xuan, and finally locked onto Xie Shizhu, who was still in the cold palace.
Xie Shizhu was forced to drink poisoned wine and died in the cold palace, thus disappearing from the scene.
The substitute takes over, and the subsequent plot is that the Regent also discovers that the person he loves is Lin Xuan, and the two fall out over a woman.
Yan Chou had a strange personality and had no interest in governing the country. As long as someone provoked him, no matter whether they were ministers or not, he would still ruthlessly get rid of them.
He is simply a tyrant.
So Yan Xiuran joined forces with other ministers to push Yan Chou off the throne and help himself ascend the throne.
Yan Chou was thrown into prison, and finally, unable to bear the humiliation, he bit his tongue and committed suicide.
Lin Xuan naturally became the only woman in Yan Xiu's harem. She was the queen and the master of the harem.
She also gave birth to two princes and a princess for Yan Xiuran.

As the sky brightened, Xie Shizhu slowly opened his eyes.
The palace maid came in to change Xie Shizhu's clothes. She sat in front of the bronze mirror, staring at the original owner's face reflected in it.
No wonder she is regarded as Yan Chou's white moonlight. With her beauty in modern times, she would definitely be a goddess pursued by millions of people.
While combing Xie Shizhu's hair, the palace maid secretly looked at the pinch marks on her neck.
It is not true to say that Xie Shizhu is out of favor. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he only married her and directly made her the queen despite the ministers' dissuasion.
However, every day when she dressed the queen, she would find new scars.
Immediately, the imperial physician came into the palace and respectfully saluted Xie Shizhu, saying, "Your Highness, I am here to assist you..."
Xie Shizhu picked up the hairpin and held it in his palm. In a moment, he threw the hairpin at the doctor and said in a cold voice, "Get lost."
The imperial physician shuddered and quickly stood up from the ground. "I'll take my leave."
The system asked curiously: [Host, didn't you dislocate your jaw last night? The imperial physician came here to treat you, why did you send him away?]
At the end, the system felt sorry for Xie Shizhu.
"Yan Chou still loves Xie Shizhu now, but he didn't put in much effort. I'm fine." Xie Shizhu found another hairpin and slowly put it in her hair. She looked at herself in the bronze mirror and curled her lips. "I had my own plan for driving the imperial physician away."
After breakfast, Xie Shizhu, dressed in pink casual clothes, walked alone onto the stone bridge without any maids or palace maids following her. There was a flowing stream under the bridge.
She waited quietly for a few minutes. Suddenly, a woman came slowly from a distance. She was dressed more simply than Xie Shizhu and looked like a palace maid. When she passed by Xie Shizhu, the palace maid stopped and said, "Your servant greets the Empress."
Xie Shizhu raised his eyebrows, looked down at her and said, "Raise your head."
The woman slowly raised her chin, her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to the original owner, and her eyes were particularly similar.
