Chapter 006: The Whirlpool of Fate In the following two days, Hua Xiangrong locked herself in her room and slept soundly, hoping to sleep through everything. She wished that when she opened her eyes again, she would see her father, mother, and her adorable turtle doll embracing her.

  After several failures in a row, she finally resigned herself to accepting everything. With too much confusion and helplessness about the future, and too much curiosity and incomprehension about crossing over, she could only pull that sensible and frightening Lingdang after her resignation, and ask her to tell her everything.

  Of course, during those few days when she was continuously sleeping and adapting to the fact that she had crossed over, her so-called husband, Jin Wang, didn't come to see her even once. It seemed as if her existence was only within this small room, and the outside world had nothing to do with her at all.

  This place is a continent different from China and does not exist in Chinese history, but it has the ancient national style of China, and all the words are written in Chinese.

  The place they are in is one of the four powerful countries on this continent, Dongxun Country. In fact, there are three other countries: Nanyu Country to the south, Xitong Country to the west, and Beijiang Country to the north. Dongxun Country and Xitong Country mainly rely on land routes, while Nanyu Country is almost a waterborne country, with water everywhere and boats as the primary mode of transportation. Beijiang Country, on the other hand, has snowfall all year round, making it a world of pure white.

  And she, Hua Xiang Rong, was the daughter of Hua Jian Ting, the Left Chancellor of Dong Xun country, who was second only to the emperor. Half a year ago, she married the eldest son of the Emperor, Jin Wang Xiao Yue Han, as his official wife. However, Xiao Yue Han was not as old as she had imagined. According to Ling Dang, he was only 25 years old and must have been the one who spent that night with her.

  Hua Xiang Rong had known books and etiquette since childhood, but she was extremely cold and indifferent by nature. Since entering Jin Wang Fu at the age of 15, she had also been indifferent to everything. Ling Dang only told her that on their wedding night, Xiao Yue Han left after a short while with an icy face, without knowing what happened. He never set foot in Xue Ling Garden (Hua Xiang Rong's residence) again.

  Afterwards, Xiao Yue Han took in a concubine and a servant, and although he treated Hua Xiang Rong with respect, no one knew what he was thinking. Just the other day, his concubine, Fu Fei, said that it wasn't good for him to neglect the queen, so she should go live with him for a night to show her magnanimity.

  Hua Xiang Rong knew at once that the concubine was trying to pretend to be mature, so she could quickly take over the position of queen. Fu Fei also knew that Hua Xiang Rong's cold nature would never allow Xiao Yue Han to touch her, so she believed this night would pass peacefully.

  But little did I know...

  Hua Xiang Rong's face turned red with shame, it was that one night, it was that Wang Ye who entered the Snow Spirit Garden again half a year later and slept in the same bed as her, but only slept together without even thinking of touching her, when she... crossed over...

  Hua Xiang Rong sat at the window with tears in her eyes, clutching the pitiful flower petals in her hand, pouting her mouth, and lamenting her fate. -- The most suitable emotional station for girls! Why... why did she have to be infatuated with flowers back then, swayed by their beauty?

  Otherwise, wouldn't she still be intact? And it wasn't until the pain lasted for a whole day and night that she felt it was no longer difficult to walk.

  Of course, the concubine who suggested that the prince go to Xuelin Garden, Fufei, had been furious ever since she heard about what happened between Xiao Yuchan and Hua Xiangrong that night. But what was even more surprising was that Xiao Yuchan tolerated Fufei's disturbance, and even when she smashed his most precious vase and knelt down in front of him in fear, he just smiled it off and didn't punish her.

  But judging from her expression, she absolutely believed that Fu Fei had no good intentions.

  Because she summarized several points...

  Xiao Yuehan was clearly not someone to be trifled with, although she was extremely tolerant of certain things, she absolutely believed he had a reason.

  Because Xiao Yuehan married Hua Xiangrong, but couldn't touch her and didn't divorce her either. This is quite suspicious. After all, they don't share a room or have children, which should be grounds for divorce according to the seven outs. Yet she's still placed in the position of Wangfei.

  Ling Dong said that the power of this country is divided into three factions. One faction is King Jin Xue Yuehan, another faction is the second prince, also known as King Rong Xue Luohuan, and the other faction is her father, Left Chancellor Hua Jinting.

  Besides, the father of that Concubine Fu was a first-rank official, Left Censor-in-Chief, with some military power in his hands. Although it's not as much as what Xiao Yuehan and Zuo Chenggui have, it still has its uses.

  From this...?

  Just then Hua Xiang Rong suddenly realized that perhaps she would become a pawn for benefits.

  Isn't this just one of those tricks used by ambitious people in ancient times?

  Hua Xiang Rong's mouth curled up with a hint of a smile, and suddenly felt that maybe days without computers, TVs, music, or dancing weren't so boring after all.

  Dragon and Tiger Fight, perhaps it is also something that can be used to pass the time better than any movie or music...

  ……?

  But Hua Xiang Rong had neglected her own identity. With her current status, she had already jumped into the whirlpool of fate and couldn't just stand by and watch.

  What's the matter with you?
