The Unwritten DestinyPrincess Li Xue was known throughout the kingdom for her beauty and pride. As the only daughter of the royal family, she believed that power gave her the right to control everyone around her.One day, she discovered a severely injured man near the borders of her kingdom. The stranger had lost all his memories and could not even remember his own name. Seeing an opportunity for entertainment, Li Xue brought him to the palace and forced him into servitude.For months, the nameless man endured humiliation. He was beaten by servants on her orders, denied proper food, forced to kneel for hours beneath the scorching sun, and treated as less than human. Every plea for mercy was met with laughter.Unknown to Li Xue, the man was Zhao Chen, the missing crown prince of the mighty Zhao Empire.When his memories finally returned, he disappeared without a word.Three years later, Zhao Chen ascended the throne as emperor.The first target of his vengeance was Li Xue's kingdom.Under his command, the Zhao armies swept across the land like a storm. Villages burned, cities fell, and countless soldiers died defending the royal family.Li Xue's eldest brother, the crown prince, was captured during the final battle. Refusing to surrender, he was publicly executed before the kingdom's remaining soldiers.Her second brother attempted to smuggle their younger siblings to safety but was betrayed by a trusted minister. Zhao Chen ordered him beheaded at the city gates as a warning to all who resisted.Her mother, the empress, chose to die protecting the royal seal rather than surrender it. The palace was set ablaze around her.Her father, the king, was dragged from his throne room in chains. Before thousands of spectators, Zhao Chen stripped him of his title and sentenced him to a humiliating death, ensuring that the once-proud ruler would be remembered as a defeated traitor.Even distant relatives of the royal bloodline were hunted down and executed until not a single member of the family remained alive.Only Li Xue was spared.Not because Zhao Chen had forgiven her.But because death was too merciful.He married her and made her watch as everything she had once cherished turned to ashes. Every day became a reminder of the suffering she had caused him.On the night of his birthday, Li Xue was dragged into an underground dungeon. Bound in chains and weakened by years of torment, she listened as Zhao Chen calmly recounted the fate of each member of her family.He described their final moments in chilling detail.Their screams.Their despair.Their deaths.Then he looked into her tear-filled eyes and reminded her of the nameless slave she had once abused."This is the price of your cruelty."As regret consumed her, Zhao Chen drew a dagger and plunged it into her heart.The princess who once ruled over others died alone in darkness, haunted by the consequences of her own actions and wishing she could undo the past.
