"OK"

Dou Shiliu closed her eyes as a familiar feeling of dizziness washed over her.

…

During the war, the matriarchal nation stood at the top of the world, and the other border countries surrendered to show their loyalty, offering countless handsome men and rare treasures in hopes of peace and prosperity.

All of this was won by the sister kingdom of the matriarchal society, by Prince Wei with tens of thousands of troops, who conquered the land and were invincible in every battle.

She is a hero of the entire matriarchal kingdom. Every citizen is crazy about Her Highness the Prince and feels proud. Empress Wei of the matriarchal kingdom is the emperor, so Prince Wei is the heaven. The people greatly support this prince.

Then the prince, who is regarded as a god by the people, is now lying in the prince's mansion, sleeping until the sun is high in the sky.

What came into view was a pale yellow curtain, the twilight air slightly cool, and above, tassels swayed gently in the breeze…

The elaborate and beautiful cloud-patterned silk, like rippling water, was spread beneath her body, always soft yet incredibly thin.

A beautiful figure was seen rolling around in the cloud-patterned blanket.

A faint scent of sandalwood wafts through the air, creating a serene and beautiful atmosphere. Beside the tatami is a window, its exquisite carvings and rare wood revealing delicate, blooming flowers outside…

The owner of this mansion has truly remarkable taste…

What time is it?

A clear and melodious voice, like a secluded orchid in a valley, filled the room.

"Host, it's already 2 PM."

Dou Shiliu's eyes widened in surprise for a moment, then he touched his head, puzzled.

"Why did it take so long..."

She had only been asleep for a short while...

When Dou Shiliu first arrived in this world, the host was on the battlefield. Dou Shiliu had to finish the battle before he could go find the cannon fodder.

Who knew that this fight would last for two years? Because her nominal sister kept wanting unification, she had no choice but to continue fighting.

Having finally made it back to the capital, she had been sleeping non-stop, and now she had unexpectedly slept until the afternoon.

Hearing the commotion inside, the servants waiting outside the door quickly pushed open the ornately carved wooden door and came in to dress Dou Shiliu, help her wash and groom herself, put on her shoes, and finally adorn her with beautiful jade.

"Your Highness, at noon today, Her Majesty the Empress summoned someone to summon you to the palace after you wake up, as she has matters to discuss in detail."

The servant bowed his head and spoke softly.

Dou Shiliu applied a touch of rouge to her lips, making her already beautiful face even more radiant and dazzling.

Her hair was styled into a beautiful bun by a servant, and the lifelike floral decoration between her eyebrows added to her charm.

Dou Shiliu stretched and yawned, turning a casual movement into a languid and charming gesture.

The servants dared not disrespect them and could only lower their heads and remain silent.

Is the mentally challenged female lead looking for her again?

"Arrange the sedan chairs and bring them into the palace."

The servants received the order and went out to prepare the carriage for the nobles to enter the palace.

Before entering the palace, Dou Shiliu drank some lean meat porridge, and the servants also served her tea and exquisite pastries.

"Your Highness, the carriage shop is ready."

Slender fingers placed the delicate pastry down, and a servant handed her an embroidered handkerchief.

Dou Shiliu wiped his fair hands, casually tossed them on the table, and left the Prince's Mansion.

The carriage at the entrance was covered in expensive and exquisite silk on all sides, and the gold-inlaid and jewel-encrusted windows were covered by a pale blue crepe curtain, preventing those outside from seeing inside...

The servants lowered a stool for her to make it easier to get into the carriage. She stepped on it lightly, and the servants then lowered a light veil for her.

Dou Shiliu sat inside the carriage, lightly eating pastries on the small table and sipping his tea listlessly.

His two phoenix eyes, like pools of clear water, held a nonchalant and listless expression.

The magnificent carriage quickly arrived at the palace gate. The guards, seeing the carriage bearing the insignia of a prince's residence, did not stop it.

"Welcome, Your Highness"

The guards knelt down abruptly, and the carriage sped past without stopping, leaving behind a cloud of dust.

"When will I be able to speak to His Highness the Prince...?"

The female guard stared blankly at the departing carriage, muttering to herself.

"Alright, Your Highness, we should be content just looking. Let's focus on guarding the palace gates."

…

A footstep enters the Red Phoenix Palace, above which is embroidered a pair of colorful butterflies dancing gracefully in gold thread.

"Royal sister, you've finally arrived!"

A sophisticated woman dressed in bright yellow, with a smile on her face, approached Dou Shiliu.

Dou Shiliu took a step back expressionlessly and reached out to take the delicate hand that was trying to hug her.

The Empress blinked, feeling awkwardly captured by Dou Shiliu.

Dou Shiliu raised her delicate eyebrows and glanced lightly at the Empress before her.

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Hearing Dou Shiliu's cold and indifferent tone, the Empress curled her lips, withdrew her hand as if bored, glanced at her, and snorted softly.

"From what you're saying, sister, does that mean I can't come to you unless I need something?"

Dou Shiliu chuckled at her sarcastic remarks, then turned and left. This female lead must be sick; she likes to call her into the palace for no reason.

"Why!"

The Empress smiled at Dou Shiliu, expecting her to say something nice, but instead she turned and left.

Wei Xinpian, who originally had a bit of an empress's demeanor, directly reached out and grabbed Dou Shiliu's white clothes without regard for the empress's majesty.

"Good sister, please play with me for a bit."

The voice sounded aggrieved.

She was overwhelmed by these annoying memorials every day.

Dou Shiliu looked on with amusement as the Empress grabbed the hem of her clothes.

"benefit?"

Wei Xinpian frowned slightly; this older sister really couldn't bear to suffer even the slightest loss.

"Treasure trove, you can choose whatever you like."

Dou Shiliu paused for a moment, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"make a deal"

The Empress laughed heartily, then pulled her into a large rosewood and marble table in the room, where they sat cross-legged.
