Over the years, Luo Wanzhao had pieced together an image of Shen Yinning from Lu Shiyan's words, bit by bit—
Brightly beautiful, willful and spoiled, a noble young lady with sharp wits and a prestigious upbringing.
One a Prince, the other the pampered daughter of a Duke Mansion, they had grown up together since childhood—a match made in heaven, the perfect pair!
Luo Wanzhao was jealous.
The reason she forced Shen Yinning to become a concubine was not only to appease Lu Shiyan but also out of a twisted desire to humiliate her.
She wanted to shatter the pampered and willful image of that noble daughter in the Prince's memory, to utterly destroy her, to reduce her to someone so lowly and insignificant!
Only then, she believed, would the Prince lose all affection for her, would he completely abandon her.
