"Yes, I understand..." Wei Qingwan replied.
"I believe you do, little sister. You are a smart woman, and also the prince's confidante. I know you will do your utmost for him," Qi Shijing said with a satisfied look on her face.
"Yes, I understand."
"Good, then I'll have to trouble you with this task today."
"Yes."
Wei Qingwan had no choice but to agree.
Qi Shijing had made her intentions this clear. If she were to refuse, she would not only be letting Qi Shijing down, but also risking the prince's disappointment in her.
She could not let that happen.
So, Wei Qingwan accepted the task.
After Qi Shijing left, Wei Qingwan asked Cuihe to help her freshen up.
"Make my face look paler, and use old clothes." Wei Qingwan instructed.
"Mistress, what are you doing? This will surely give Queen Rui a chance to ridicule you!" Cuihe objected.
"Doesn't Wei Qingruo enjoy making fun of me the most? Well then, let her have her way." Wei Qingwan replied.
