Listening to Pang Tuo’s analysis of Qin Baiwan and his cohorts, Wu Weiwei lowered her eyes. She knew all about this Qin Baiwan; he was a particularly unhinged character in the novel. Anything malicious that happened could be traced back to him. He never acted like a decent human being and was the natural-born nemesis of the male lead. Naturally, he was also the only fool in the story daring enough to oppose both the hero and heroine. Because he detested the male lead, he spent the latter half of the book plotting to assassinate Lu Hanting. He hadn't counted on the male lead being prepared for him, however, and ended up being killed by Lu Hanting in a counter-strike. Even his Panshan Villa was implicated and razed in the process.
The three tyrants of the Capital—or rather, the four, if you counted the Crown Prince—were all thoroughly wiped out by him. In the end, the only person left of the royal bloodline was the Seventh Prince, who wasn't even Emperor Mingcheng’s biological son, and the male lead effectively held the Emperor hostage to control the entire realm. Wu Weiwei guessed that this was the true nature of events.
