When Shen Zhaowan opened her eyes again, she was standing in a spacious, brightly lit tent.

She was the only one standing here.

She looked around and saw dozens of candlesticks burning, with several carved charcoal basins placed in the middle.

The room was very warm. Shen Zhaowan put her hand on the moon-white cloak, but in the end she had some concerns and did not dare to untie it.

She already knew where she was.

……

She was originally a daughter of the royal family of Xichang State and the daughter of Prince Qing.

When his father learned that the Emperor of Xichang intended to seek peace, he took the initiative to offer Shen Zhaowan.

The emperor had exactly this in mind. On the one hand, Shen Zhaowan was beautiful and had a gentle personality, so she was easy to control. On the other hand, the emperor of Chenlin Kingdom had just ascended the throne and had no concubines in the harem, so he wanted to use this opportunity to insert someone into the harem.

Unfortunately, his wishful thinking was just a good idea. Shen Zhaowan had already arrived for a day and had been standing here for so long, but she still had no idea when the male protagonist, the Emperor of Chenlin Kingdom - Pei Yanheng, would summon her.

Her father said it was a marriage of peace, but Shen Zhaowan knew that it was just a consolation, a nice way of saying it so as to avoid damaging the prestige of the Emperor of Xichang.

The compensation was sent over together with her unilateral request.

……

The longer she waited, the more frightened Shen Zhaowan became. Although there was no one inside, she didn't dare to walk around or sit down to rest.

She just moved her feet slightly, which were covered by her skirt, to relieve the soreness caused by standing for a long time.

She had heard that the Emperor of Chenlin Kingdom was young but firmly seated on the throne. Not only did he lead hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the imperial city, but in the first year of his reign, he killed several princes, staining the court with blood. It was unknown how many officials in the capital city, from high to low ranks, had died.

Shen Zhaowan had heard about his ascension to the throne that year, and the rest was told to her secretly by the maids assigned to her on the way here.

It also allowed her to understand the emperor's temperament and preferences in advance so that she could win the emperor's heart and complete the task.

But the more she listened, the more scared Shen Zhaowan became.

In the end, all we knew was that he was a cruel and ruthless person.

It is not an exaggeration to describe him like this, because what he has done since he ascended the throne is indeed horrifying, and his thundering methods are endless.

She was a girl who lived in seclusion in the boudoir. She was not loved by her father and mother and had never encountered any major events. But one day, the matter of "marriage for a foreign country" fell on her.

Ever since she realized there was no way to retreat, she felt uneasy all the way.

She was afraid that the emperor would be unhappy and kill her with a single blow.

[Wanwan, I'm sorry for the trouble. ]

[It's okay, I'm glad I can chat with you. I haven't seen you for a long time. ]

Xiaobai also felt anxious. Waiting was really tormenting.

Shen Zhaowan felt the same way. She didn't want the original plot to be the same. If she didn't meet Pei Yanheng today, it would be even more difficult to meet him after being brought back to the palace. Just like the original plot, she would be treated as a spy and died at the hands of an old man who was protecting himself.

I'm afraid that in the end the emperor even forgot that she was his concubine in the palace.

As for the heroine, she did not appear in the original novel until Shen Zhaowan's death. Since this novel is only half finished, it is still unknown whether there is a heroine or not.

I’m unlucky, I drew this small world!

Now they are at the border between the two countries. Xichang State was defeated this time and ceded the city as compensation. Pei Yanheng will stay for a few days and then return to the court.

Pei Yanheng personally led the army to fight this time and defeated the Xichang Kingdom step by step.

Just because the emperor of Xichang was confused, he colluded with the remnant forces of his uncle who was executed by Pei Yanheng, and wanted to break through Chenlin Kingdom bit by bit from the border.

Who would have thought that Pei Yanheng would personally take action to severely damage the Kingdom of Xichang and cause it to lose six cities.

If Pei Yanheng does not stop, it won't be long before even the capital of Xichang will become someone else's.

The main reason was that it was a severe winter with heavy snow, and food and horses were temporarily in short supply. If the fighting continued, the soldiers would not be able to bear it.

It has been three years since Jinghong came to power in Chenlin Kingdom. In the past few years, he was involved in wars everywhere. Now that he has received compensation, he can rest and recuperate.

When Shen Zhaowan thought about this, she did not feel any indignation for Xichang State. This result was inevitable as their ability did not match their ambition.

In the end, he was so scared that he wanted to use the beauty trap.

But the sky outside was gradually getting dark, the sun was setting, and night was falling, but Pei Yanheng still hadn't returned.

Shen Zhaowan was absolutely sure that this was his tent.

Shen Zhaowan's stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound; she was a little hungry.

【Wanwan, someone is coming. 】

It definitely wasn’t Pei Yanheng. Could it be Eunuch Shi, the eunuch beside Pei Yanheng, who came to ask her to leave?

The person who came was Eunuch Shi, the old man beside Pei Yanheng.

Because Pei Yanheng hasn't finished dealing with the matter yet, he is on patrol!

After thinking it over, he still felt that it was inappropriate. As it was getting late, and he didn't know when his Majesty would return, he decided to ask this person to come out.

See you in the daytime.

Otherwise, if Your Majesty thinks that he is acting on his own and helps him find a concubine, that would be disastrous.

He opened the curtain, but did not see Shen Zhaowan.

Eunuch Shi was secretly shocked. Where did the person go?

There are soldiers guarding the door, so it's impossible for someone to disappear out of thin air.

He looked around but couldn't find it, so he finally looked behind the screen.

That was His Majesty's living quarters, and he didn't dare to go in without permission.

Could it be that this woman took his words as wind and went in?

While I was hesitating, the time I had wasted was no longer the same as the original plot, so I just staggered it.

Moreover, the moment she took the risk and went in, the Qianlong Guards left behind by Pei Yanheng were the first to report the news.

Sure enough, the sound of horse hooves approached in the wind and snow.

A tall and upright figure walked in.

When Eunuch Shi turned around, he saw his Majesty and immediately took the black cloak that Pei Yanheng had taken off.

"Your Majesty, you are back!"

He then wanted to help His Majesty brush off the snow that had fallen off his body, but Pei Yanheng's gaze fixed him in place.

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong." Eunuch Shi immediately understood the meaning in Pei Yanheng's eyes.

He knelt down on the ground in fear and told Pei Yanheng the whole story without making any mistakes.

Even though Eunuch Shi knew that his Majesty was well-connected and might have known the truth long ago, he did not dare to hide anything.

Pei Yanheng lowered his eyes, looked at the frightened person on the ground, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

The oppressive atmosphere was so overwhelming that it made people breathless.

At that time, cold sweat broke out on my father-in-law's forehead and his back was wet.

"Remember to accept the punishment."

When the cold voice came, Eunuch Shi felt relieved and hurriedly thanked him. This time it was his negligence and he touched the bottom line of his Majesty.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me."

Eunuch Shi stood up, and the two of them looked behind the screen at the same time.

Despite such a loud commotion, not a single sound came from behind the screen.

"Your Majesty, be careful."

Various scenes flashed through Eunuch Shi's mind, and he leaned forward slightly to block Pei Yanheng.

Pei Yanheng's expression was calm, and his pair of deep eyes seemed to penetrate the screen.

He took a big step and walked straight behind the screen.

When my father-in-law was a beat slow to react, he quickly caught up.

The scene that came into view made Eunuch Shi’s mind full of thoughts.
