In the state of Zhao, there was a beauty named Taohua (Peach Blossom). Fate was unkind to her, and she was married off far away to the state of Wei, with only one goal in mind: to survive and climb her way up. In Wei, there was a handsome prime minister, ruthless and cunning, sweet in words but sharp in action, who cared for no one’s life but his own ends. Taohua (Peach Blossom) thought, everyone has an appreciation for beauty—how could he possibly just wipe her out like that? Shen Zaiye smiled slightly and showed her through his actions—he was no ordinary man. “If you have the guts, shoot the arrow and make it two lives for one corpse!” Taohua yelled, her neck stiff. “Very well, may you rest in peace,” Shen Zaiye said calmly, waving his hand to give the order. As the arrow whizzed past her ear, a cold sensation washed over her body. Only then did Jiang Peach Blossom realize that Shen Zaiye wasn’t joking. He truly would kill her. “Your life is mine, and I can take it whenever I please,” Shen Zaiye said leisurely, his gaze falling behind her, suddenly turning sharp. “But only I am allowed to take it!”
