Me pergunto porque a princesa decidiu ter esse tipo de casamento

My guess:     The female slave may or may not be a slave but she had a high previous identity in the state of Yan. Xiao Heng may or may not be the female slave's child, but he too also has a complex and formerly prestigious family in Yan. Read more Read more      Marquis Xuanping and Princess Xinyang had a political marriage and she was sent to be a tool to keep the Marquis in check and kill him if need be.     Xiao Qing was indeed killed under the late emperor's orders. After all, the hierarchy of orders is, follow the person you're assigned to's orders; if the emperor makes a contradicting order, obey the emperor's order; if the late emperor's orders contradict the emperor, follow the late emperor's orders. Basically late emperor's orders supersede all other orders, the current emperor's orders supersede all orders except for the late emperor's.     The late emperor didn't want to see Princess Xinyang fall in love or side with Marquis Xuanping because she's supposed to be the blade placed at his side to take his life if he goes against the Emperor. Having a child between the Marquis and the Princess could cause her to prioritize the child and develop feelings for the Marquis making her no longer an effective blade. The best solution is to smother this possibility in the cradle, literally. So the late emperor may have had orders to the dragon shadow guards to kill any children of Princess Xinyang or at least kill any child she has with the Marquis to ensure she doesn't have a child with the Marquis and lose sight of her orders.     SMH, cold late emperor Show less

Princess Xinyang and Marquis Xuanping story is marriage-of-convenience gone wrong …. I felt like princess Xinyang does love the marquis which is not surprising since they even had a child so the problem here is the marquis for being stupid and he need to chill his d*ck and stop sleeping around

I think Princess Xinyang has feelings for Marquis Xuanping. So, did Marquis Xuanping really had that kind of special relationship with the slave woman? Sigh... Anyway... Other than Princess Xinyang, the only one who can order the dragon shadow guards was the late emperor right? So, was it him who ordered the dragon shadow guards to kill the child? It can't be the cutie fake dragon shadow guard, Long Yi... If there's one traitor among the shadow guards, then the other real ones should have made a move to protect the child back then.. My head hurts. Hahah.
