Si Wei gritted her teeth and said loudly, "Ill go get someone. Its better than staying here being frightened." After finishing speaking, she shook off Si Yus hand and walked out. Si Yu originally wanted to stop Si Wei, but the person left too quickly, and unexpectedly couldnt catch up in time.
"Youre not allowed to go out." A soft and clear voice sounded, with an unprecedented sense of intimidation. Mingming Siwei had heard it many times before, but this time she didnt dare disobey the frail young mistress. She put down her hand that was about to open the door, clenched her skirt and remained silent.
Qin Zhao Xi walked to the head of the bed and said to Si Yu, who was somewhat stunned, "Go help me prepare some water, I want to take a bath."
"However, Concubine, the Prince hasnt even arrived to lift the veil and drink the wedding wine yet." As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Concubine looking over at her, and she suddenly felt nervous, regretting her hasty words.
Qin Zhaoxi looked at the maid in front of him and smiled after a long while, "The king wont be coming tonight, go quickly."
Wang had a habit of being arrogant, and it was already an open secret in Shengjing that he would come if he wanted to. There wasnt even a guard at the door, clearly not taking this new concubine seriously. She didnt mind, her heart and eyes were only filled with thoughts of revenge, she wanted to make him pay, thinking of a deep and far-reaching plan.
It wasnt until half a time later that the bath was ready, and the kitchen said there was no hot water. Qin Zhaoxi had to bribe Sifu with some silver coins before he slowly brought over the water. Sifu helped Qin Zhaoxi change clothes, still fuming, "The new concubine has just entered the palace, and she cant even get hot water for a bath, its outrageous!"
The young lady with a faint sorrowful expression scattered flower petals into the water, this young mistress was not only abnormal but also didnt receive favor, she worried about her future days.
Qin Zhaoxiu had Renshiyu help her bathe, she never liked people to get close to her while bathing, but now, there were still many questions that needed this maids help to answer. She looked at the maid who was skillfully wiping her body and slowly opened her mouth, "Renshiyu."
The maid responded with a sound, and she continued, "After I woke up in the sedan chair, some things are unclear. Whats my name, whats my identity? Tell me everything you know about me, okay?"
Poor Concubine, she must have been drugged too much. Thinking of this, Si Yu said seriously, "I will definitely tell the truth, Concubines surname is Chu and her name is Lianruo, she is the fourth daughter of the Governor of Cen State, and was married to Prince Fei by His Majesty during the selection of concubines."
The Governor of Kun State, Qin Zhaoxiu hooked his lips, "Im afraid you still have a lot to tell me, such as why I was given in marriage to the Feather King?"
Si Yu secretly wiped away a cold sweat, hesitated for a moment, "I and Si Wei were later given to the concubine as maids by the mistress. I really dont know about these things, but I heard that it was Princess Yu Gui who made the decision on behalf of the concubine." Although she was just a rough maid in the mistresss courtyard, she still knew more than others about some things.
Now that you mention it, Qin Zhaoxi also understood. Her appearance and demeanor were exceptional, perfectly embodying the gentle and delicate qualities of a girl from the water town of Cen Prefecture. Its likely that Yu Guifei, Shi Yuyin, did something behind the scenes to persuade the Emperor to bestow her upon Prince Fei.
Qin Zhaoxi waved his hand to signal the fish to stop, got up and took a towel from beside him to wipe his body dry. He was wearing only one layer of clothing, and let Si Yu leave a candle lamp behind.
She lay flat on the intricately carved cloud-patterned sandalwood bed, candlelight passing through the gauze curtains casting a soft glow. She raised her wrist repeatedly, making sure this was not a dream. Now all that was left for her was to avenge and settle the score, and the only way to do it was to enter the palace as a concubine.
