Chapter 6: Are You A Princess? The Kind With A Ruined Reputation

"Your Highness, can you wait here? From the looks of the steward, the prince may be in a critical condition." Shen Wan squeezed He Qingning's hand, her eyes conveying that she would not hurt herself.

He Qingning is not a person who easily follows orders. She is the royal princess and her father's favorite daughter. No matter what she did, her third brother wouldn't dare touch her.

Shen Wan is his wife. Logically, she belongs to him. From the day of their marriage, she would be trapped in this position for her whole life. She will only live and die here. General Shen is gone and the Shen family is considered to be no one important. Even if she was a little clever, what can a weak woman like her change? If her third brother forcefully wants to make Shen Wan his, then there are also certain means to do so.

He Qingning loosened her hold on Shen Wan's hand and watched her leave with a medicine bag. She gazed at the other woman's back and stood there thinking. She always felt herself on top of everything as the royal princess, but this is the first time she felt so weak. Her feelings for Shen Wan went from disgust to curiosity. Now that she knows her secret, she knew that the woman was not as stupid as she thought. Instead, she had plans of her own which surprised her.

What if her idea's not that stupid?

Life's not about struggling to live in this quagmire.

What can Shen Wan change and what can He Qingning change?

When her father, the emperor, and her mother were young, they were obviously in love with each other. They only had each other in their hearts. It's a pity that she became the empress and had to shoulder the burden of the world. At the same time, her young father could not withstand the pressure from the previous emperor and had to accept concubines. When his reign was stable, her father finally had the power, but with her mother's weakened body, she could no longer accompany her father to go on. This situation is just as helpless; Shen Wan is just a daughter of a deceased general. Her father's intention to have her married was good, but it was the wrong move.

Shen Wan pushed the door open. She saw He Qingning standing outside with a thoughtful expression and a sorrowful atmosphere. The moment Shen Wan allowed He Qingning inside her room, the sadness in her body immediately dissipated.

She didn't walk over; only looked at Shen Wan and spoke with a cold voice. "Did you deliver the medicine?"

"It has been sent." Shen Wan answered honestly. Her Highness didn't seem happy when she looked at her.

"Close the door."

Shen Wan lightly sighed and obeyed. This little princess' temper is really one of a kind. It doesn't matter, she chooses to forgive her. It's fun playing with Her Highness' temper when she can coax her out of it.

Shen Wan moved a small step in front of He Qingning, "Your Highness doesn't look very happy. Who made you angry?"

"My third brother obviously suspects the blood you gave him." He Qingning kept her gaze firmly on Shen Wan's face, "he already noticed that before which is why they would suddenly ask you to send blood over. You cut yourself, so they'll find out that your blood still has medicinal effects and doubt you instead. In the future, you may be asked to cut your hands and bleed while they watch before they let you go. Didn't you say that you wanted to live well and not hurt yourself because of others?"
