A concubine at the bottom said, "I think you, Concubine, are also very adaptable. After all, the Khan dotes on you very much now. He even gave you such precious moonlight silk to make a skirt."
The hierarchy in the desert harem was not as strict as that in the Central Plains, but Qin Yanning was still the princess of Dazhang after all. If Tuoba Xiao died, she would naturally be worthless. But now she was Tuoba Xiao's beloved one, so naturally no one dared to say anything too harsh.
Qin Yanning seemed to have come to her senses and quickly apologized to everyone, "The Khan was just worried that Yanning would be homesick since she came from thousands of miles away and was the youngest among the sisters. That's why he kept her in the palace for a few more days. Sisters, please don't get upset over such a small matter."

"Relatives between Dazhang and Damao have just eased. Are you trying to stir up trouble again by saying this, sister?"
Qin Yanning was not worried about making things worse. Although everyone knew that she was an unpopular princess, they did not understand how unpopular she was. She was going to put this big hat that was randomly attributed to her back on these people.
