Chapter 664: Chapter 664: Innocent Little Flower Fairy VS Wealthy Beauty of the Human World (Part 14)

"Beat him to death! Stealing food, hit him!"

In the resplendent Imperial court of Ming Country, there was always no shortage of such corners.

A group of lavishly dressed children, seven or eight years old, were surrounding a child of the same age, punching and kicking him.

The reason was that this child had stealthily taken a pastry meant for feeding the fish of the Second Prince.

The thieving child was none other than Yu Wenrui.

Ever since he had memories, he had lived in the Cold Palace.

His mother was a woman crazed with madness, and the only sane person who took care of him was an elderly Nanny.

That Nanny told him his mother had once been a favorite Concubine of the Emperor, who, because of a scheme against her, was thrown into the Cold Palace by the despising Emperor even while pregnant.

And he, being born in the Cold Palace, naturally wasn’t considered a precious Prince; he lived even more humbly than most servants.

Those eunuchs and Palace Maidens, at least, didn’t have to fear going hungry or being cold.

From a young age, Nanny had taught him that he should be one of the most honored individuals in this world, that he was a Prince, he was above ordinary people. free𝑤ebnovel.com

While being brutally beaten, he stared at the Second Prince who stood idly by with a jeweled necklace, indifferent, and the thought of becoming someone superior became unprecedentedly clear.

He began to strive. With no esteemed teachers to instruct him in the Cold Palace, he would secretly plead with some soft-hearted Palace Maidens to bring him books, and then the old Nanny, who recognized a few words, would teach him to read under the dim oil lamp—at night, because during the day, Nanny had to work at the Laundry Bureau.

As he grew older, he managed to get a set of eunuch clothes, and every time he followed them to the study hall, he would stand outside, guarding and listening to the Grand Tutor’s teachings to the Princes.

After all, he, a forgotten Prince, was unrecognizable to everyone.

Later on, it seemed that the Empress Dowager was seriously ill, and the Emperor, to pray for her recovery, decreed a general amnesty, which finally allowed him, a Prince of the Cold Palace, to come out.

And then, little by little, he surrendered his dignity, set aside his pride, discarded everything he had, and step by step, from a Prince who had nothing, he gradually made a name for himself in front of the Emperor and began to take on some light responsibilities.

Eventually, there came Prince Xian.

Unfortunately, by the time he had power in his hands, power to control the lives and deaths of others, his mother had already succumbed, forever remaining in that desolate palace.

The old Nanny who had pinned all her hopes for the future on him also didn’t live to see the day of fortune.

He was always alone.

Therefore, he regarded the Emperor’s favor as highly important; he knew that to climb even higher, he had to understand how to anticipate the Emperor’s wishes.

That night at the banquet, the Emperor, with blurry drunken eyes, looked up at the bright moon and mumbled, "I, the Emperor, have riches and power over all under heaven, yet cannot obtain a peerless beauty of extraordinary grace and fragrance—it is truly a regret in life."

He etched this sentence into his heart, and silently began to search for those beauties.

Visiting Yun Mansion was simply because the eldest daughter of the household, Yun Chuqing, was hailed as the most beautiful woman in Ming Country.

But what he didn’t expect was an accidental gain.

He watched as that Immortal-like woman took shape amidst the flowers, and at a glance, it was as though thousands of blooms had opened.

He knew he had found her.

The peerless beauty who could topple kingdoms and cities.

Only he hadn’t anticipated that she could also topple his own heart.
