Pei Xu was the Chancellor’s son.
On a wager, he disguised himself as a poor young man and set out to win me over.
Instead, he fell deeply in love with me and swore he would marry no one else.
When his sister learned of it, she had my younger brother and sister killed, then sold me to a brothel to put an end to my presumptuous dreams.
Years later, she was to marry the young marquis.
But on their wedding day, he never came to fetch his bride.
Dressed in his wedding robes, he was at a brothel, spending a fortune on me.
