"The people of Yuan Palace secretly curse me as a bastard. Since childhood, my situation has been awkward, only because my parents once had grace towards the Empress, only because my parents died because of the Empress, I was rewarded with wealth and status, but it's merely ancestral protection."
"Back then, she... was the first person to smile at me, the first to help me up when I fell, and the first to treat me kindly."
"That sister, when I was young, she was even more naive than me. When I grew up, her thoughts were simple, she treated me very well, but in the end, I actually harmed her with my own hands; I cannot forgive myself."
"Actually, I could have saved her at that time, but I was too irrational back then. After learning the truth, I summoned the Seventh Princess and angrily questioned her why she ignored sisterly affection, what wrong did Xiao Shiyi do."
