"Beat him to death! Stealing food, hit him!"
In the resplendent Imperial court of Ming Country, there was always no shortage of such corners.
A group of lavishly dressed children, seven or eight years old, were surrounding a child of the same age, punching and kicking him.
The reason was that this child had stealthily taken a pastry meant for feeding the fish of the Second Prince.
The thieving child was none other than Yu Wenrui.
Ever since he had memories, he had lived in the Cold Palace.
His mother was a woman crazed with madness, and the only sane person who took care of him was an elderly Nanny.
That Nanny told him his mother had once been a favorite Concubine of the Emperor, who, because of a scheme against her, was thrown into the Cold Palace by the despising Emperor even while pregnant.
And he, being born in the Cold Palace, naturally wasn't considered a precious Prince; he lived even more humbly than most servants.
