Chapter 225 I find him disgusting
"Nothing happened," Princess Ping sighed. "I just wanted to talk to someone."
Yu Zhiyi raised an eyebrow.
That's quite unusual.
From childhood to adulthood, apart from Hongluan, no one had ever thought of sharing intimate secrets with her.
Even Hongluan and the other woman never vented their frustrations about life to each other. When they were together, they either traveled together or did their own thing; she would tinker with her formations, while Hongluan would read books.
Before she was ten years old, she would chat with noble ladies, but after she turned ten, none of them would.
Princess Ping was the first.
She waved her hand, signaling Manager Wu and the others to leave first.
Once only Yu Zhiyi and the people brought by Princess Ping remained in the room, Princess Ping said, "I really didn't know who to talk to, and suddenly I thought of Physician Yu."
She had many brothers and sisters when she was at her parents' home, several close female friends before she got married, and even more sisters-in-law after she got married.
But whether it was her brothers and sisters, her close friends, or her sisters-in-law, she didn't want to go to them.
She could guess what they were going to say without even going there.
She didn't want to hear those old clichés.
Yu Zhiyi, whom she had only met once, somehow felt a strong connection with her, and when she had unspeakable worries, she instinctively wanted to find her.
"Hmm, Princess Ping, please speak."
Princess Ping waved her hand: "Don't call me Princess Ping, just call me by my name, Dieyi."
"Um... Madam Butterfly?"
Princess Ping chuckled, though she wasn't entirely satisfied with the title, she didn't say anything more.
"Actually, I came here to thank you," said Princess Ping. "The Prince has already investigated the matter of our savior."
Five years ago, it was indeed the unmarried Princess Ping who saved Prince Ping.
As for the fox spirit, it was nearby and witnessed the whole thing.
The fox spirit had already gained sentience and fell in love with King Ping at first sight. Despite her lack of strength, she forcibly transformed into human form, wanting to stay with King Ping forever.
Forcing one to take human form before having sufficient strength is extremely dangerous, especially since this fox spirit's Dao heart was already unstable due to her lust for men, so it was only natural that she failed.
The consequence of failure was the death of the fox spirit.
However, its physical body died, but its soul remained in human form.
Later, it encountered Xiahou Li, who coveted the fox spirit's soul and wanted to refine it into a ghost soldier. However, the fox spirit's strength was not yet sufficient, so Xiahou Li decided to nurture it for a period of time.
It would be even better if the fox spirit could bring her more energy during this time.
Where does the energy of these evil entities come from?
It is naturally harmful.
The fox spirit and the King of Peace had been living a life of illicit relations for some time and had already absorbed a great deal of vital energy.
Of course, Princess Ping was unaware of these matters. All she knew was that "after the prince confirmed the matter of the life-saving grace, he spoke kindly, saying that he had only been blinded by evil spirits and hoped that I could forgive him."
Yu Zhiyi: "..."
To be honest, she's not good at mediating other people's family disputes.
As the saying goes, it's better to tear down a temple than to break up a marriage.
She didn't think so.
However, she wasn't close enough to Princess Ping to advise her to divorce.
Besides, women in this era are not so easily divorced.
Even she was able to successfully divorce because she didn't have a complicated family behind her and because she was determined and capable of protecting herself.
Princess Ping wasn't looking for life advice; she was just feeling down and wanted to talk to someone about her feelings.
She didn't care whether Yu Zhiyi answered or not: "I'm not afraid to tell you, but I feel extremely disgusted whenever I think about how he used to be all lovey-dovey with a vixen for so long."
"It's strange, but I never cared whether he had other women before. Sometimes he would leave another woman in the first half of the night and come to my place in the second half. I didn't mind at all, and I was even a little secretly pleased."
"But for some reason, ever since I heard him say that I was 'boring and cold,' I have felt a strong aversion to being in the same room with him."
Every time he got close, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
I wouldn't say I felt disgusted, but I just didn't want him to touch me again.
Yu Zhiyi touched her nose.
There's no way to respond to that.
I still remember that Madam Yu, Zheng, had a younger sister who was about ten years younger than Madam Zheng and only a few years older than Yu Zhiyi.
When Xiao Zheng reached marriageable age, she took a liking to a family of similar social standing. Coincidentally, that family was also interested, and the two families discussed getting engaged.
But in reality, only the parents of that family were satisfied with Xiao Zheng. The man himself was not very satisfied with her. Compared to marriage, he preferred to philander.
But Xiao Zheng was completely devoted to him, and no matter how her family tried to persuade her, she refused to listen and insisted on being with him.
But sometimes she couldn't stand the man's philandering and would often come to Zheng to cry and complain.
Feeling sorry for her sister, Zheng went to confront the family and threatened that if the man dared to philander again, she would break his legs and make sure he could never leave the house again.
Originally, it was a matter of standing up for her younger sister, but afterwards, Xiao Zheng was coaxed by the man with a few words, and then complained that her older sister's tone was too harsh, blaming her for ruining her relationship with the man.
Not long after, the two got married.
The man also made sarcastic remarks about Zheng at the wedding.
Zheng, who became the villain to stand up for her sister: "..."
Yu Zhiyi will never forget the ugly look on Zheng's face, as if her own father had died.
From that moment on, she learned that she should never meddle in other people's relationships.
If this is the case even among acquaintances, how much more so when the other party is merely her destined partner?
Princess Ping spoke for a long time without receiving a reply, and couldn't help but look at Yu Zhiyi: "Doctor Yu, do you find these mundane things very boring?"
Yu Zhiyi shook her head: "It's not that I'm bored, it's just that these are all personal matters for Princess Ping. How to choose is entirely up to you, and I can't give you any direction."
Therefore, asking for her opinion is useless.
Princess Ping said thoughtfully, "What Doctor Yu said is right. I couldn't live like this for a long time."
Yu Zhiyi: "?"
Wait a minute.
What did she say?
Princess Ping continued, "Doctor Yu, you may not know this, but ever since I met you that day, it's as if a new world has appeared before my eyes."
Although the status of women in Shengguo is much better now than it was a hundred years ago, and many women have made their mark in various industries, their numbers are still a drop in the ocean compared to men.
Leaving aside distant examples, even within the imperial court, there are practically no officials of the fourth rank or higher.
They have appeared in history, but in very small numbers.
In this generation, only Yu Zhiyi remains, a sole heir with a rank of at least fifth grade.
The same applies to other industries.
Women have to put in far more effort than men if they want to get ahead.
Even if they achieve success through their own efforts, they will still be accused of using men and their bodies to get ahead.
