The royal palace of Jingqiang is made up of a series of white, tower-shaped houses connected together. The tops of the towers are painted with gold paint and hung with colorful banners and copper bells. When the wind blows, the copper bells make a crisp sound.
Perhaps because they were about to reach Jingqiang City, the torture that Qin Wang had inflicted on Wei Yinshuang in the past few days would not leave any marks on her face.
Wei Yinshuang has long lost her former arrogance and spends her days like a walking corpse, leaning against the corner of the carriage, silent and still.
When Qin Wang tortured her, she tried her best to grit her teeth and remain silent.
She discovered that the more she called out, the more excited the Prince Qin became; if she remained silent, the Prince Qin would soon lose interest in her.
She couldn't bear this suffering anymore; she wanted someone else to suffer it for her.
Wei Yinshuang fixed her gaze on Qingyun.
Watching the Prince Qin torment Qingyun without restraint in front of her, Wei Yingshuang breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, someone was taking the blame for her.
When Qingyun's clothes were first torn by Qin Wang, she looked at Wei Yingshuang beside her and begged her mistress to save her.
Wei Yingshuang smiled and said, "Qingyun, it is your honor to enjoy the Prince's favor. You should thank me for giving you this opportunity to serve the Prince."
Upon hearing Wei Yingshuang's words, Qingyun shed two lines of tears, slowly closed her eyes, and endured the storm of grief inflicted upon her by the Prince Qin.
From then on, Qingyun took care of Wei Yinshuang like a puppet, never saying another word.
Wei Yinshuang didn't care about the feelings of a servant girl; she just wanted someone to take the torment of serving the king for her.
"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Prince's residence. Please alight from the carriage."
The voice of a maid from Bei Li could be heard from outside the carriage.
Wei Yinshuang tidied herself up, raised her head, and slowly got off the carriage.
No matter what, she is still the Princess Consort of the Northern Li Kingdom, so she must maintain her imposing presence.
What came into view was a prince's mansion that looked very similar to the mansion of the Prince of Da Chu, with three large golden characters "Qinwang Mansion" hanging at the entrance.
This was specially commissioned by the King of Qin to be built based on the residence of the Prince of Chu, making it unique in the entire Northern Li.
Seeing the prince's mansion like this, Wei Yingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that living in such a mansion would make her more comfortable.
Qin Wang entered the mansion first, followed closely by Wei Yinshuang.
As soon as Wei Yingshuang stepped into the Prince's mansion, she saw a group of Northern Li women rushing toward the Prince.
"Your Highness, you're finally back! I've missed you so much!"
"Your Highness, you must come to my room tonight."
"Your Highness, I have learned a new technique. I will try it out with you tonight."
......
Seeing so many beautiful women surrounding the Prince Qin, Wei Yingshuang felt displeased.
They're all despicable women, how dare they steal her man!
One of the women glanced sideways at Wei Yingshuang, who was following behind Qin Wang, and looked her up and down with disdain in her eyes.
"Your Highness, is this the woman you brought back from the Great Chu? With such thin arms and legs, can she bear your favor?" The woman covered her mouth and laughed after speaking.
"How dare you! This is Princess Qin! Why aren't you all bowing to her?"
Granny Li was the dowry maid chosen by the Empress Dowager for Wei Yinshuang. Seeing these women from Beili daring to look down on Wei Yinshuang, she spoke up to reprimand them.
"Princess? A woman from the Great Chu, you think you can come to our Northern Li and act like a tyrant?" The woman was not afraid of Wei Yingshuang at all, and her tone was sarcastic.
The Prince Qin, with his women on either side, smiled and glanced sideways at Wei Yinshuang.
