In the year the plum blossoms were in full bloom, in order to reduce contact with the Crown Prince, Wang Ci chose to go to a temple, saying that he would observe a vegetarian diet for a month to pray for the Crown Prince's well-being. The Crown Prince agreed, and it was there that Wang Ci met Xia Chao.
On the day of Wang Ci's wedding, Xia Chao was still fighting on the border and did not return to attend the wedding banquet. Therefore, the two of them did not know each other.
At the time, Wang Ci thought Xia Chao was just a wandering swordsman, and Xia Chao thought she was just a rich young lady from that family.
Wang Ci harbored the intention of deliberately getting close to the Xia Dynasty. She was a lady from a prestigious family with a good background, but she also had a rebellious heart. Since her husband could find another woman every now and then, why couldn't she find a man to relieve her boredom?
Thus, the Xia Dynasty became her prey.
At that time, Xia Chao, a young man still in a naive and innocent dream, was still obsessed with marrying Wang Ci. However, Wang Ci withdrew from the relationship. Xia Chao searched for Wang Ci for half a year until the Crown Prince and his Crown Princess came to see him at a palace banquet.
Wang Ci acted very calmly, as if she had never known Xia Chao before. Suddenly, an inexplicable anger rose in Xia Chao's heart. That night, he tied up Wang Ci, intending to teach this person who dared to play with his feelings a lesson. However, with every smile and frown of Wang Ci, he inexplicably surrendered. Not only did he surrender, but he was also slept with by her again.
Yes, it was him; she slept with him.
So, his plan to settle scores with her came to nothing again.
Xia Chao had thought that Wang Ci was like a mystery. She seemed knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous, but behind the scenes, she could always inadvertently bewitch him.
But she only needs to be infatuated with him.
He decided to take her away, but Wang Ci refused. Not only did he refuse, he also threatened to kill himself and force him to return to his fiefdom, never to enter the capital again.
Wang Ci suddenly felt afraid, unsure whether it was because she had discovered she had come to enjoy teasing this man, or because she had discovered she was pregnant.
Now that she was pregnant, she had to give birth, so she had no choice but to ask Zhao Wan for help.
Zhao Wan had advised Wang Ci not to give birth to the child, but Wang Ci wouldn't listen. Wang Ci's idea was simple: she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to pray at the temple to give birth to the child.
Zhao Wan also had an idea. She couldn't let the child stay with Wang Ci, otherwise, Wang Ci, as the Crown Princess, would face a fatal disaster.
Therefore, Zhao Wan also announced to the public that she was pregnant.
Ten months of pregnancy, one day of childbirth.
Zhao Wan had Xie Xun find a stillborn baby. She told Wang Ci that her child had died. Wang Ci didn't say anything, but just held the baby and cried bitterly.
Zhao Wan quietly left through the closed door. A month later, Xie Xun announced that his wife had given birth to a daughter for the Xie family.
Wang Ci was safe, but his heart was broken. Zhao Wan took the child and went to Sishui City with Xie Xun, and from then on, she lost contact with Wang Ci. Even after returning to the capital, she would not accompany Xie Xun to any of the palace banquets in recent years, because she dared not face Wang Ci.
"Your Highness, you cannot kill my husband. He risked everything to help me bring Aci's child out of the house."
The story is short, but it cannot be explained in just a few words. As Zhao Wan uttered her last word, those who heard the story were left speechless for a long time.
