The past comes to light.

"He comes from the royal family?" Zhan Yanhui was stunned when she heard the news. She hadn't known she had been entangled in the royal family's mess throughout her past life. She clenched her fists thinking she had been a fool for so long and had been used so much. This was so unacceptable for her!

"Yes, he is. That's one of the reasons he is still alive. His father was a good man who helped me and.....someone else when I was little." Yi Wenkui sensed her anger so he returned to his seat to look at her. "But his influence was growing too much across the capital and the late emperor couldn't accept that new development so he plotted against him. Prince Yi Zhiyuan was accused of a crime he did not commit and he was killed unjustly along with his whole family. At that time, my grandmother sent someone to rescue his only descendant and hid him in one of her most trusted subordinate's family, surname Wen."
