Shen Zhao served as a female official by the Empress’s side for eight years. Just as she had finally endured long enough to leave the palace, she was transferred to the Eastern Palace to become the Crown Prince’s Initiation Maid.

To outsiders, the Crown Prince was as gentle as jade and possessed a noble character. Only Shen Zhao knew how cruel he could be when he tormented her.

After her first failed escape attempt, the Crown Prince locked her to the bed. A gentle smile graced his face, yet madness lurked in his eyes.

“Sister, you are being very naughty. If you run again, I will break your legs.”

She appeared submissive on the surface, but one day, she vanished from the Eastern Palace entirely, leaving behind nothing but her own cold Memorial Tablet.

After that day, rumors circulated in the capital about the Crown Prince’s obsession. Whenever he encountered a woman who resembled Shen Zhao, he would plead with bloodshot eyes, “Zhaozhao, I was wrong. If you refuse to return to the Eastern Palace, then I shall come find you…”

Only Shen Zhao saw that the moment the Crown Prince finally found her, he revealed that sinister smile once again.
