What Gu Shiyi had to do now was to hold the 23 people outside of her in a firm grip. Only by doing this would she be able to sleep at night.

She felt that since she could not win with virtue, she could only use the simplest and most direct method to suppress the enemy.

"Have you seen what happened to Lu Ying?"

Gu Shiyi reclined on the soft couch with a lazy expression, but she emitted a sense of majesty, causing the group of people kneeling to not dare to look down on him.

"Reporting to consort, I've seen it!"

Her voice was uniform, but it was also trembling. Gu Shiyi was very satisfied.

"Once you enter this Yining Courtyard, you'll only belong to this wangfei. You can slowly learn if you can't do things well, but if you can't do things well, then some other thoughts will arise. You will end up like Lu Ying!"

Gu Shiyi's voice sounded casual, but in the ears of the people who heard it, it was extremely intimidating. It also caused the people who had thought about it to temporarily put away their plans, and decided to wait and see for a while.

Only, Gu Shiyi knew that no matter how much you threatened and seduced the cat, she would not take the cat seriously.

In addition, she also had the patience to make those whose hearts weren't in this place roll their ass out of this place.

Although it wasn't the first time Situ Jing had gotten married, he had always died suddenly on the night of his wedding, and didn't even have a tablet. Therefore, Gu Shiyi did not enter the palace as the successor wife, but instead moved into the sole main courtyard as the original wife.

Therefore, this also caused those people who originally looked down on Gu Shiyi to not dare to have any presumptuous thoughts. In the entire Duke Palaces, Situ Jing was their heaven, and since the heavens had given Gu Shiyi a hundred and twenty percent face, how could they possibly go against the heavens?

It could also be said that Situ Jing's direct attitude towards him determined his position in the Duke Palaces.

Gu Shiyi knew all of these better than anyone else, so she had to develop her own trust and influence before Situ Jing could turn hostile one day. This was to prevent her from being rejected by Situ Jing one day, becoming as miserable as the others.

Although Gu Shiyi had a feeling that Situ Jing would not do that to her, she had to prepare everything.

The path ahead was vast, but danger lurked in every corner. She had to quickly turn into the decisive and calculating Gu Shiyi.

In her dreams, she was hugged tightly by a big bear. No matter how much she struggled or resisted, she could not escape the big bear's embrace. In the end, she, who was extremely tired, saw that the big bear did not intend to harm her and his embrace was so warm, so she simply hugged the big bear and fell asleep.

The corners of Situ Jing's mouth lifted slightly as he looked at the quiet Gu Shiyi who had finally fallen asleep in her arms.

He still planned to stay in his study today, but after listening to his subordinate's report that she was knocking on someone's door and adding up the image in her head, his intuition made him laugh.

Situ Jing would never admit that he came here on purpose because he took advantage of Gu Shiyi's sleep. The moment he got on the bed, he felt that the entire bed was ice-cold, and even touching Gu Shiyi's body felt incomparably cold.

He suddenly felt a pain in his heart. With how cold it was, this woman was actually still able to sleep, and without saying a word, he pulled Gu Shiyi into his embrace, but this woman was so restless and kept on moving, causing the evil flame he was desperately suppressing to be ignited once again. It made him want to take her right now.

That night, Gu Shiyi slept very well. However, Situ Jing opened her eyes and chanted the Heart-Cleansing Curse all night.

Therefore, the moment Gu Shiyi opened her eyes, she saw a gigantic panda cat staring at him with a resentful look. She was so shocked that Gu Shiyi immediately sat up on the bed and covered her chest with her hands.

Situ Jing, when did you arrive? Also, did he do anything wrong to her?

A string of doubts caused Gu Shiyi's face to be at a loss. She even checked her body in front of Situ Jing to see if there was anything wrong with it.

Originally, because of Situ Jing's sleepless night, he was somewhat agitated but after seeing Gu Shiyi's actions, he completely erupted once again. He directly lifted off the blanket, supported himself with both hands, and sat down on a wheelchair.

Gu Shiyi was still sitting on the bed with a baffled look on her face. The one who was being tofu was her, so the one who should be angry was probably her.

Indeed, the rumors weren't all groundless rumors. At the very least, it was absolutely true that they were temperamental.

After Situ Jing left, Lv Zhu also brought the other six people into the room. Like a puppet, Gu Shiyi changed her clothes, combed her hair and painted her makeup.

"Princess, you're the most beautiful person this servant has ever seen!"

The one who spoke was Lu Lan, who was responsible for combing Gu Shiyi's hair. Under her delicate hands, a delicate and exquisite bun was combed to the point of almost complete perfection.

On the left side of the bun, there were three jade flowers and phoenix tail jade hairpins. On the right side, there was a Jade Orchid Flower hairpin and a row of scarlet gold flowers and a red plum blossom pearl on the back of the hairpin.

Today, she was wearing a red dress, it was from a famous celebrity. No matter if it was the fabric or the style, it was all exceptional.

Such a Gu Shiyi, beautiful, dignified, grand, charming!

What Gu Shiyi did not realize, was that, other than Green Orchid, the other girls all had stunned expressions.

Gu Shiyi looked at herself in the mirror, and then took out her golden hairpin, leaving only a jade hairpin on it. The jade hairpin that she had received that day of her age.

All the maidservants had puzzled expressions, especially Green Orchid. They all thought that it was because the wangfei didn't like them combing her hair.

"Don't make a fuss, I'm just not used to dressing up like this!"

Gu Shiyi smiled comfortingly at the crowd. In the past, she did not have any accessories, but now, taking into account her status as an imperial concubine, it was already not bad that she was willing to wear a jade hairpin.

"But wangfei, isn't this a bit too dull?"

Lv Zhu expressed her opinion. Although it did not cause any loss to the atmosphere and dignity of the princess, it did not give others the same feeling of shock as when they looked at her.

"No, your highness likes it!"

Gu Shiyi directly threw out Situ Jing's method of getting everything done once and for all, and sure enough, after she said that, no one dared to say anything else. Seeing this, Gu Shiyi also took off all the jewelry from her ear, neck, and wrist, leaving behind a purple jade ring on her ring finger.

Following that, Gu Shiyi looked at the gorgeous, cumbersome, and ordinary clothes on him, as she walked straight to the wardrobe. She found a very ordinary looking, light and comfortable set of clothes and changed into it.
