The Second Prince, Xuantian Ce, took a liking to a little-known concubine-born daughter from the Protectorate Great General's Mansion.
This matter owes its thanks to a few rich and idle youths.
That day, a few notorious youths in the Imperial City saw an incredibly beautiful woman at a tavern. Judging by her appearance and attire, she seemed to be of humble origin, which sparked their romantic interest. The woman, however, steadfastly refused their advances, and in the ensuing chaos, she accidentally pushed open the door to a private room.
Inside that room, the Second Prince and a beautiful woman in white were adding fragrant touches to their sleeves, leaning close to each other, and sharing tender feelings...
Undoubtedly, what followed was purely the observers' own imagination, as Xuantian Ce and Cheng Lingyu were merely engaged in a perfectly normal conversation.
However, rumors are such that they spread from one person to another, and from two to three, until everyone knows.
