The novel I traveled through was clearly called "The Rebirth of a Legitimate Daughter", so how come it became "The Cunning Prince and His Pampered Concubine" when it came to her?

"Who are the male and female protagonists in the novel you are reading?" I asked.

She chuckled, "The male lead is my prince, and the female lead is naturally Yu Jinyao. Princess, although your identity is the vicious female supporting role, don't worry, when I came here, I found that the current plot is too different from the original book, and even the main plot is no longer consistent."

"Are Su Mei and Xu Chang'an in the story you read?"

"Ah?" She showed a confused expression, "Who are they? Are they powerful people?"

I didn't say anything more. It seems that this world is not a novel. If it is a fictional world, it may be composed of many different stories.

After talking for a while, I concluded that she didn't know much, so I asked what I wanted to know the most, "Do you know how to get out of here?"

Xia Yao sighed and shook her head, all her excitement gone.

It seemed that this topic was also her sad thing, and we both drank a lot of wine without realizing it.

It was not until Wu Jiu came over that he had to remind her, "Princess, you are still in the alcohol withdrawal period. Have you forgotten?"

I just want to drown my sorrows in alcohol. How can I be free from sorrow if I don't get drunk?

"You don't understand! You don't understand the pain in our hearts!" Before I could say anything, Xia Yao stopped me with an empty wine glass in hand and scolded Wu Jiu, "Why do you care so much? Believe it or not, I will let the princess divorce you immediately!"

This girl's alcohol tolerance is even worse than mine. Wu Jiu looked helpless and was about to wave to the maid she brought to help the girl down, when he heard someone from the yard reporting that the King of Zhenbei had sent someone to pick up the princess.

I thought Situ Jue had sent someone over, but I didn't expect that he came here in person.

When Xia Yao saw Situ Jue appear, she seemed to wake up all of a sudden and threw herself into his arms, "Master! You are here to take me back!"

Wu Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Situ Jue with a bit of dissatisfaction.

Situ Jue just reached out his hand to support Xia Yao and asked the maid beside him to take over, "Take the princess to the carriage first."

Xia Yao turned around and waved at me, "Princess, I'll go back first! We'll meet again next time!"

Situ Jue's eyes swept back and forth between her and me, "I wonder when the princess and the princess became so close?"

I looked at him quietly without answering. To be honest, I felt a little complicated when I saw him appear in front of me again. I was a little annoyed when I heard the news that he had returned to Qi. Even more than an hour ago, I felt annoyed when I heard this person's name.

But now, seeing that he is dark and thin, with an obvious scar at the corner of his eyebrow, combined with the plot content mentioned by Xia Yao, it makes me jump out of my current identity and look at him from a God's perspective. The feeling of disgust seems to be diluted.

Perhaps the pity in my eyes was too obvious, and the expression on his face began to become a little unnatural, so he said to Wu Jiu, "I have something to talk to the princess alone, so please step aside, King Dayue."

Although Wujiu was dissatisfied, he did not show it. He just looked at me and asked for my opinion with his eyes.

I nodded slightly in agreement, and he withdrew with the other palace servants.

"Are you willing to marry him?" I didn't expect that this would be the first sentence he asked.

Could it be that he took seriously what I said to Zhou Guoxu when I was trying to gain his trust?

"If your princess's visit today was deliberately arranged by you, then you don't have to do such a thing again in the future." I took two steps forward, walked in front of him, lowered my voice and emphasized my tone, "Situ Jue, there is no relationship between you and me anymore. No matter what happened in the past, we should not meet again in the future if we can avoid it."

He seemed a little bit unbelievable, or perhaps very angry, and reached out to grab my wrist. I immediately twisted it with my backhand to neutralize his force.

"Are you... still angry about me sending someone to bring you to Zhou? Actually, at that time..."

"No need to explain. No matter what your purpose was, what's past is past. I don't want to mention it again, and I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore." I distanced myself from him again.

At this time, he probably realized that what I said was all true, and then he showed a forced smile, "Liar!"

Then he turned and left, his back quickly disappearing outside the courtyard gate.

I admit that I have told some lies before, but it is understandable that people tell lies to protect themselves.

Only after the princess sent the guests away did I have a moment of peace, but the discomfort caused by drinking gradually became apparent.

Wu Jiu came back and saw my appearance, still a little emotional, and said unhappily, "I've already told you that your body is not suitable for drinking during this period. Why are you doing this?"

I fell back onto the bed and sighed heavily, "There's no going back."

He still didn't understand what I was saying, so he could only continue to persuade me, "It's only the last time to cleanse the poison, oh... forget it, I'll go prepare a new poison insect for you, you might feel a little sad tonight."

Didn’t I get through it the same way the last few times I was sad?

After he prepared the insects, I was dumbfounded. The quantity was larger than ever before. When I saw the densely packed insects in the wooden barrel, I got goose bumps all over my body.

"Does it have to be so much?" I pulled Wujiu's sleeve, trying to find evidence from his face that he was deliberately tormenting me.

"This is the last time. If you don't clean it up, all the previous efforts will be in vain. Princess, please be patient."

"This is not a question of whether or not to endure..." I just felt my scalp tingling, "Why don't you just knock me out?"

Wujiu looked at me expressionlessly. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
