It turns out that this young lady's surname is Wei and her name is Zhiying. She is the daughter of Wei Mingcheng, the left prime minister of the Northern Yue Kingdom. She has been spoiled by her parents since she was a child. She has a quirky personality and is a little willful and capricious.

The maid just now was called Xia Ling'er, and she had a brother named Xia Boqing. The brother and sister were originally from a wealthy family, but because the family servants colluded with bandits to rob their family property, dozens of people in the family were killed. Only the brother and sister escaped because they pestered the housekeeper to go out to buy things that day.

Later, the old housekeeper raised the brother and sister until they were ten years old. Before he died, he entrusted them to a fellow villager. This fellow villager was the housekeeper of the prime minister's mansion. At that time, the prime minister's mansion was looking for maids and servants, so housekeeper Xu arranged for the brother and sister to enter the prime minister's mansion. The elder brother Xia Boqing followed the prime minister's son Wei Jinghe, and the younger sister Xia Ling'er followed Wei Zhiying.

Wei Zhiying often followed her brother Wei Jinghe and often went out to play with him. They were about the same age, so she became familiar with Xia Boqing over time.

As they gradually got to know each other, Wei Zhiying discovered that Xia Boqing was not only handsome, but also smart, loyal and upright. Gradually, Wei Zhiying put Xia Boqing in her heart.

She was not like other rich girls who were reserved and would fight for what she liked. Finally one day she seized the opportunity to express her feelings to Xia Boqing, but because of the disparity in their social status, Xia Boqing decisively refused and even began to avoid Wei Zhiying.

Wei Zhiying had been spoiled since she was a child. She could easily get what she wanted, so how could she let go of the person she liked so easily? Whenever she had the chance, she would appear in front of Xia Boqing. After all, Xia Boqing was just a young teenager, and he already had a good impression of Wei Zhiying, so the two of them decided to spend their lives together in private.

Originally, Prime Minister Wei and his wife treated their beloved daughter Wei Zhiying as a treasure and always granted her every request. She also felt that relying on her father's love for her, it was not impossible for her father to approve her marriage with Xia Boqing in the future.

But a few days ago, Wei Zhiying secretly heard her father and mother say that the emperor intended to marry her to the third prince, Prince Jing, Chu Xingluo. Wei Zhiying was struck by lightning when she heard this. She couldn't marry Prince Jing. She and Xia Boqing had already decided to spend their lives together, and she would not marry anyone else but him.

She ran to her father to argue, saying that she was not a vain person, did not seek wealth and glory, and did not dare to marry the prince. Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Wei, who usually doted on her, severely rebuked her for making a fuss, saying that the emperor had said it in front of all the ministers, and the king was not joking!

Wei Zhiying was so angry that she ran to confide in Xia Boqing. Xia Boqing was very sad, but he also knew that he was of low status and could not compare with the prince. Moreover, the prime minister's mansion had done a favor to his brother and sister, and he could not make things difficult for Prime Minister Wei for the sake of their love. He advised Wei Zhiying to break up with him, but Wei Zhiying was unwilling to do so.

Wei Zhiying can listen to her parents in everything, but her feelings, which are related to her lifelong happiness, she wants to make her own decision!

So, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion did something against common sense. She went out for an outing and specifically asked Xia Boqing to drive her. However, she secretly put drugs in Xia Boqing's tea and slept with Xia Boqing that day. She knew that Xia Boqing would never do anything to humiliate her reputation. So she could only resort to this last resort. She thought that since the matter was settled, her father would not force her.

Although Xia Boqing felt regretful after he woke up, he was a man and things had already happened, so he decided to face it together with Wei Zhiying and work hard for his own happiness.

Wei Zhiying wanted to find an opportunity to confront her father and have him tell the emperor that she was already engaged, so that the emperor would take back his decision. But before she could tell her father, Prime Minister Wei told her that the emperor had said in front of all the civil and military officials in the court that he would hold an engagement ceremony for her and Prince Jing on Xiaoman Day, to signify perfection, and then find an auspicious day for the wedding.

The emperor has already issued the decree, so Prime Minister Wei naturally has no choice but to agree. This is a done deal.

If he regretted it now, Wei Mingcheng would probably be charged with deceiving the emperor. Although Wei Zhiying was willful, she was not stupid and knew the seriousness of the situation. If her father refused the first time the emperor said it, the situation could still be eased. Even if he did not refuse, he could tell the emperor that he would go home and ask his daughter's opinion.

Wei Zhiying knew his father's character very well. He was loyal to the emperor and would never refuse anything the emperor was interested in.

The second time, the emperor had already set the date, and his father had no objection, so there was absolutely no room for regret. Wei Zhiying hated herself for not telling her parents earlier that she and Xia Boqing had secretly decided to spend their lives together. If she had told them earlier, there wouldn't have been so many problems.

After hearing this, Xia Taoyuan roughly understood the whole story and felt that the prime minister's daughter was very bold and willful. But she couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic towards her. However, sympathy was sympathy, and she couldn't help Wei Zhiying. She just wanted to go home, back to her old and dilapidated home, which had her best memories.
