Staying up all night telling stories?

You're kidding me!

Seeing how exhausted Shang Xiye and the bandit were, Princess Zhaoping couldn't help but imagine the scene of them together.

She recalled how Shang Xiye had repeatedly claimed to be unwell and refused to consummate their marriage.

Princess Zhaoping's tears, which she had just managed to hold back, welled up again. Her little mouth trembled, and she looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

Granny Chang sighed inwardly, a surge of anger rising within her.

real.

This pawn, raised by the Empress Dowager, deserves to be a useless piece!

All she does all day is cry, cry, cry. The slightest thing can cause her to have a mental breakdown. How did the Empress Dowager raise her to be like this?

The Empress Dowager was very satisfied with the reactions of the Ninth Prince and Ji Fengyao, and did not care at all whether Princess Zhaoping was intelligent or too weak.

Anyway, she never intended to train Zhaoping to be a particularly shrewd person (if a chess piece is too shrewd, it is difficult to control).

Upon hearing Wuying's words, Aunt Sun immediately laughed and said, "Why go to such lengths as to visit the Tusi Terrace? There are plenty of places to rest in Cining Palace. The side hall where Princess Zhaoping used to live has been kept by the Empress Dowager."

"In that case, then Prince Jiu and Princess Chonghe should go and rest first." The Empress Dowager could not suppress her joy and her sharp lips curled up slightly: "Zhaoping, you and Aunt Sun take Prince Jiu and Princess Chonghe over and serve Prince Jiu well so that he can rest properly."

Princess Zhaoping had not yet recovered from her jealousy and sorrow.

Upon hearing the Empress Dowager's words and seeing that the Ninth Prince seemed extremely tired and did not object, she was overjoyed and wept: "Good, good, Zhaoping will go right away."

Princess Zhaoping wiped away her tears as she got up and ran to Shang Xiye's side, her hands trembling as she tried to help him up.

Wu Ying quickly stepped forward and helped Shang Xiye into the wheelchair: "Your Highness is still recovering from your injuries and is not able to walk properly. It is better for me to come down."

"Help Yao Yao over here, I... carry her..." Even in his dazed state, Shang Xiye did not forget to bring Ji Fengyao along.

Wuying got up, about to carry out the order.

Having received a signal from the Empress Dowager, Granny Chang quickly smiled and rushed over to help Ji Fengyao up. She then said to Princess Zhaoping and Wuying, "Princess Chonghe is a woman; it's not right for her to be helped by a guard. Princess, let this old servant help you help Princess Chonghe inside to rest."

"Oh, okay." Princess Zhaoping finally realized something was wrong and quickly went forward to help Ji Fengyao with Granny Chang.

The group arrived at the side hall.

Simeng and Siyi first took Wuying to Princess Zhaoping's room.

Princess Zhaoping and Granny Chang helped Ji Fengyao to another room.

The two casually tossed the "sleeping" Ji Fengyao onto the bed.

Looking at Ji Fengyao's unusually fair and pretty face, Granny Chang roughly touched it and clicked her tongue, saying, "I don't know what this bandit ate to grow up with such tender and lush skin."

Princess Zhaoping felt that Granny Chang's behavior was inappropriate and called out, "Granny."

"We're all women, what's the big deal?" Granny Chang said with the face of an old rogue, pinching Ji Fengyao's figure again while lecturing Princess Zhaoping: "Princess, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but you should put some effort into taking care of your skin and figure; you consummated your marriage with the Prince today, so these things can't be hidden anymore; the Prince may not say it, but he must be comparing you in his heart, so don't let a bandit outshine you."

“Granny…” Princess Zhaoping blushed and lowered her head.
