I became a big shot in the quick transmigration world.

Chapter 868 His White Moonlight 1
"Sixth Prince, no, I should now call you Prince Duan."

With your great talent and meticulous mind, who would have thought that you, Prince Duan, are the most deeply hidden member of the royal family?
I'm quite curious, which of these two women beside me is your true love?

One was once your elder brother's concubine, the other was your principal wife, and the other was the princess of Chen who came from afar for you.

Their lives are in my hands, but the choice is yours.

If you could only have one child, who would you choose?

The wind howled past Yu Muhuai's ears as he heard these words, loud enough for everyone around him to hear clearly.

The person speaking was standing to her right, and further to the right, there was another woman.

The woman pressed her lips together, trying to appear strong, but the tears in the corners of her eyes betrayed her sorrowful state of mind.

Yu Muhuai and the woman next to him were both bound with ropes, which restricted their hands and feet.

The other end of the rope was held in the hand of the man in the middle.

The three of them stood on the edge of a cliff, while a large group of people stood on the opposite side.

At the head of the group stood a handsome and dashing man.

He stared at Yu Muhuai and the woman beside him with bloodshot eyes, his back teeth clenched tightly, his inner turmoil and pain clearly visible.

This man is the sixth prince, also known as the newly appointed Prince Duan—Lou Yunsheng.

The original owner's name was Zhong Ci.

Zhong Ci's father was named Zhong Haopeng, who once served as the Minister of War of the Lanting Kingdom.

He was later framed and imprisoned. He was tortured in prison for 100 days, but he refused to sign a confession and was eventually tortured to death.

Zhong Ci and other women were sold off, but they escaped on the way and eventually returned to the capital, where they lived by begging.

Finally, one day, she met the sixth prince, Lou Yunsheng, on the road and begged him to save her.

Lou Yunsheng's mother was of lowly status, so he was never favored by the emperor.

Before his downfall, Zhong Haopeng held the highest rank of official, a powerful figure whom everyone in the court admired.

At that time, the young Zhong Ci was beautiful, cute, sensible and intelligent. She was very much loved by the Empress Dowager and would often enter and leave the palace, and would also study with the princes.

She once rescued Lou Yunsheng from a group of boys who were beating him.

From then on, the kind and beautiful Zhong Ci became Lou Yunsheng's ideal woman.

When Zhong Haopeng fell into trouble, Zhong Ci was already 10 years old and had grown into a beautiful young woman.

By this time, Lou Yunsheng had gradually built up his own underground power base, which was growing stronger day by day.

Both of them were extremely intelligent, far surpassing ordinary people in their strategic and cunning abilities.

In his later years, the emperor became senile and listened to slander, indulging in sensual pleasures all day long. The crown prince took the opportunity to cultivate his own faction, forming a powerful force in the court.

Lou Yunsheng wanted to ascend to the supreme throne, so he had to overthrow the crown prince.

Zhong Ci wanted to clear her father's name and also wanted the corrupt emperor to pay the price.

So the two, sharing the same goal, became partners side by side.

The two had developed feelings for each other, but they were too burdened with responsibilities to attend to their personal feelings.

So he could only keep these feelings to himself.

But Lou Yunsheng knew that Zhong Ci would always be the white moonlight hanging high in his heart.

Soon after, Lou Yunsheng was sent to the State of Chen as a hostage.

Although he was in a foreign country, Lou Yunsheng never relaxed for a moment.

On the surface, he was an unfavored and taciturn hostage, but in secret, he was constantly expanding his power and planning for his future.

However, Lou Yunsheng was ultimately outnumbered and powerless, and could only rely on Lan Tingguo's confidants and Zhong Ci to accomplish many things.

To his surprise, he caught the eye of the young princess of Chen. The princess's name was Yuwen Xue.

There were only two princesses in the Chen royal family, and both were very much loved by the emperor.

Yuwen Xue is innocent, lively, and adorable, and there is a faint resemblance between her and Zhong Ci when they were young.

But Zhong Ci is different now. Having experienced such a devastating blow to the Zhong family, she is now very good at disguising her emotions, and is reserved and composed.

Although still beautiful, the once-beautiful moonlight has now grown sharp thorns.

Although she didn't know kung fu, it didn't stop her from becoming a respected strategist among Lou Yunsheng's staff.

During the time when Lou Yunsheng was a hostage, Zhong Ci infiltrated the Crown Prince's residence and became a concubine in the household of Crown Prince Lou Yunhang.

Before long, Zhong Ci became Lou Yunhang's favorite concubine and was greatly loved by him.

Soon after, the talented and beautiful Zhong Ci not only became a concubine in the Crown Prince's harem, but also successfully participated in his political affairs with his advisors.

When Lou Yunsheng first learned of this news, he was heartbroken and couldn't sleep all night, so he could only drown his sorrows in alcohol.

Only when he was drunk could he see Zhong Ci in his dreams.

Yuwen Xue felt sorry for him and didn't know why Lou Yunsheng was acting so strangely, so she just assumed that he was missing his homeland.

So she would often come to keep Lou Yunsheng company, only to be ruthlessly driven away by him.

Years later, Zhong Ci finally found an opportunity to frame the Crown Prince, sowing discord between the Emperor and the Crown Prince, which led to the Crown Prince's deposition.

After years of indulging in a life of pleasure and debauchery, the emperor's health has been depleted, and the court needs to establish a new crown prince.

Just then, reminded by someone, he thought of Lou Yunsheng, the sixth prince, who was far away in the State of Chen.

Lou Yunsheng was thus summoned back to Lanting Kingdom.

Before leaving, Princess Yuwen Xue knelt and begged her father, the Emperor, to let her marry Lou Yunsheng.

Finally, unable to resist the little princess's pleas, the Emperor of Chen proposed a marriage alliance with Lanting.

Lou Yunsheng realized that this was one of his bargaining chips, so he did not refuse.

Yuwen Xue took his tacit agreement as her favorite thing.

The two then returned to Lanting Kingdom together.

Zhong Ci never expected that after waiting for so many years and planning for Lou Yunsheng in Lanting Kingdom for so long, two people would actually return.

However, remembering that she had once been the Crown Prince's favored concubine and had no standing, she could only silently lower her eyes and suppress all her emotions.

However, Lou Yunsheng never liked Yuwen Xue, only using her as a stepping stone, and never touched her.

He and Zhong Ci had been suppressing their emotions, but Lou Yunsheng and those around him knew how important Zhong Ci was to him.

After returning to Lanting Kingdom, Lou Yunsheng gradually revealed his talent.

He seized the opportunity to completely eliminate the Crown Prince and his influence in the court, gradually establishing his own foothold in the court.

And then this is what Yu Muhuai saw when he came over.

The Crown Prince's remaining supporters were already at their wits' end, so they decided to fight to the death, hoping to avenge the Crown Prince before they died.

So they devised a plan to capture Yu Muhuai and Yuwen Xue, and forced Lou Yunsheng to make a decision on the edge of a cliff.

After a painful decision, Lou Yunsheng finally chose his white moonlight.

However, the remnants of the Crown Prince's faction had no intention of fulfilling their promise; he only wanted to torment these three people.

Finally, he pushed them both down.
