Capítulo 447: 226 Falling off the Horse (First Shift)

His life with Jing Pin was challenging, and it only improved slightly after she gave birth to a princess and was consequently promoted to the rank of Jing Fei.

However, not long afterward, the Crown Prince and the Liu family started to target him. He refused to join their camp, and in return, he suffered a terrible blow.

But those blows only led to him being poorly clothed and fed. Nobody would really use a whip to lash at his forehead!
