Wei Yingshuang had never suffered such humiliation before. She raised her hand and slapped the woman across the face. "How dare you!"
The woman didn't back down either, raising her hand and slapping Wei Yingshuang back.
Wei Yinshuang was no match for the strength of these grassland women, and was immediately knocked back several steps by the women.
If it weren't for Granny Li helping her in time, she would have almost fallen, and her face would have swelled up instantly.
Granny Li looked at Prince Qin and said angrily, "Your Highness, the Princess Consort is a princess of Great Chu, and she is the princess you married through proper channels. Are you just going to let people bully her like this? If this old servant tells the Emperor of Great Chu about this, how will Your Highness explain this to Great Chu?"
Prince Qin smiled and pushed aside the woman beside him, slowly walking towards Wei Yingshuang, his eyes filled with coldness, "What kind of explanation does the Princess Consort want me to give you?"
Having spent some time with Qin Wang, Wei Yingshuang had come to understand his temperament. Hearing him say this, she knew he was unhappy, and her body involuntarily trembled.
But she is a princess of the Great Chu Kingdom and the wife of the Prince of Qin. If she is bullied by a woman from the Northern Li Kingdom now, how will she establish herself in the Northern Li Kingdom in the future?
With this thought in mind, Wei Yingshuang mustered her courage and met the king's eyes. "This woman has committed insubordination. Shouldn't Your Highness give me an explanation?"
This was also the first time in a long time that Wei Yinshuang dared to look directly at Qin Wang.
Qin Wang looked at Wei Yinshuang and suddenly burst into laughter.
The next second, the loyalist drew his sword!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Bang!
Bang!
The two men, clutching their bleeding necks, stared wide-eyed in disbelief as they collapsed to the ground. After twitching a few times, they lay motionless on the ground.
Wei Yinshuang covered her mouth, afraid to make a sound.
With red eyes, she looked at the people lying on the ground. Besides the woman who had provoked her earlier, there was also Granny Li, who had spoken up for her.
Prince Qin, holding a blood-stained knife, looked at Wei Yingshuang and said, "Your Highness, are you satisfied? This is Bei Li. I don't like people pointing fingers at me when I do things. Your Highness, you'd better remember that."
Compared to Wei Yingshuang's terror, the women surrounding Qin Wang seemed to be used to this scene. They all smiled and embraced Qin Wang as they left, leaving Wei Yingshuang standing there, trembling.
Qingyun watched all of this with a blank expression from beginning to end, neither angry nor surprised.
Back in her room, Wei Yingshuang took the tea from Qingyun with trembling hands. The tea spilled from the cup and dripped onto Wei Yingshuang's hands, but she didn't feel the heat.
At this moment, Wei Yingshuang truly understood that since arriving in Beili, her life was in the hands of others.
What to do, what to do?
She didn't want to die.
"Qingyun, what should I do? Aren't you usually the most decisive? Qingyun, say something!" Wei Yingshuang roared.
Qingyun spoke calmly, "Your Highness, you are the Princess Consort of Qin, and only the Prince of Qin can protect you."
Wei Yingshuang nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, you're right. Only Qin Wang can protect me. I have to please Qin Wang, I have to please Qin Wang."
She didn't want to end up like Granny Li, killed before she could even react.
It's just the death of a servant girl; even if the news gets back to the Great Chu, no one will care.
That night, Prince Qin stayed in the rooms of other concubines and did not come to see Wei Yinshuang. Wei Yinshuang felt a little disappointed.
The next day, Qin Wang took Wei Yinshuang to the Northern Li Palace to pay homage to the Northern Li King and Queen.
"Greetings, Your Majesty and Your Majesty." Qin Wang bowed, and Wei Yingshuang followed suit.
After what happened yesterday, she dared not act recklessly again and kept her head down the whole time she entered the palace.
King Bei Li laughed heartily, "Uncle, rise. There's no need for such formalities between us. Is this the Princess Qin you brought back from Bei Li? I find her quite beautiful. Congratulations, Uncle, on winning the heart of your beauty. What does the Queen think?"
"Your Majesty, I also think it's good."
Upon hearing the voice of the Queen of Bei Li, Wei Yinshuang was so shocked that she forgot all about etiquette and abruptly raised her head to look at the Queen.
Her pupils then contracted sharply, her face filled with disbelief.
