Ever since Li Ji gained the special ability of "Mind Reading," almost all the thoughts he heard were laced with schemes, hostility, and suspicion.
He had grown used to it.
Living at the center of power in the Great Zhou Dynasty, all sorts of conspiracies and schemes were inevitable. He couldn't possibly escape them.
But Hua Manman was an exception.
She was like an outsider who had stumbled into this world, her thoughts completely out of sync with everyone around her.
She was truly... too strange.
Hua Manman couldn't believe the great Prince Zhao wouldn't even bestow a set of bedding upon her. As she inwardly cursed him for being so cheap, she could only lower her standards and pitifully ask for the next best thing.
"If there's no bedding, a soft pillow would be fine too."
The pillow on the bamboo couch was woven from bamboo.
It was quite cool to sleep on in the summer, but it was too hard for Hua Manman. It was so uncomfortable it made her head ache.
