Qu Sisi didn't say much about the nitty-gritty, but looking at the sadness in her eyes, you could more or less figure out what was going on.
The Zhao family was a decently well-known noble family within Prince Jin City, so it wasn't hard to understand why Prince Jin, Yan Ze, wanted to win them over.
Actually.
It wasn't just Qu Sisi's friend who got sent over; Prince Jin outright sent a batch of beauties to the Zhao family, and Qu Sisi's friend was just one of them.
In this day and age.
Even concubines could be handed around at will, let alone maidservants or any other kind of help.
No one ever really cared.
As for reporting it to the authorities?
Heh!
"Who's standing before the court to accuse me?"
"From the looks of you, I'm guessing you're not here to seek death, but revenge, right?"
If Qu Sisi really just wanted to die, hanging herself, jumping in the lake—any of those would be much quicker than starving herself.
"..."
Qu Sisi didn't deny it.
