Xiao Qiao tries her best to be a good wife after she married Wei Shao in The Prisoner of Beauty. She knows her family owes him a lot. She wants to make it up to him. She can do anything for him as long as he doesn’t hurt her family. But he does it too much in episode 10. Wei Shao is the ruler of Wei Nation. He manages the nation and he needs a wife. His grandma arranges a marriage for him. He resists it in the beginning. Because his fiancee is the daughter of his enemy. But he’s overwhelmed by her beauty.
Wei Shao is a man. He has a lust for beautiful women. But he loses interest when he faces Zheng Shu. She’s the niece of her mother. He’s known her since he was a child. He never planned to marry her. But his mother Mrs. Zhu likes the girl. She wishes Wei Shao to get Zheng Shu in The Prisoner of Beauty. She and Zheng Shu work together to drug Wei Shao. But he goes to Xiao Qiao’s room. He wants to sleep with his wife if he has to sleep with someone. But Xiao Qiao slaps him instead. Why does she do it? Doesn’t she love her husband?
Wei Shao’s Mother Drugs Wei Shao
Wei Shao’s mother Mrs. Zhu wants to set Wei Shao and Zheng Shu up. Zheng Shu is very poor. She lost her parents when she was a child. Mrs. Zhu has raised her since then. Although Zheng Shu is just her niece, she treats her as her real daughter. She plans to marry the girl to his son for consolidating the relationship. But Xiao Qiao’s appearance sabotages her plan.
Mrs. Zhu doesn’t like Xiao Qiao at all. Because she’s the daughter of her enemy. But her son is mesmerized by the woman. It makes him refuse to take Zheng Shu as his concubine. She has to use a dirty method in The Prisoner of Beauty episode 10. She knows her son will hate her. But she decides to be an evil person for helping her niece.
Wei Shao knows nothing about her mother’s plan. He comes to her house and he drinks with her in the yard. He doesn’t suspect her after she drank. But he gets a headache after he tasted the wine. The maid guides him to his mother’s mother when she claims that her mother is sick.
He walks into her mother’s room. But the maid locks the room from outside. He finds out that Zheng Shu took off her clothes and she’s lying in the bed. She’s waiting for him. He realizes that he was drugged by her mother. Zheng Shu tries her best to tempt Wei Shao. But she has no charisma. Wei Shao feels uncomfortable when the lady approaches him. He’s rude to push her over and he kicks down the door. He glares at her mother before he leaves her house.
Mrs. Zhu breaks Wei Shao’s heart deeply this time. She did many bad things to him before. She scratched the box he favors in episode 7. She tried to send the girl he loves away in episode 5. He won’t forget her. Because she touches his bottom line.
Wei Shao Tries to Sleep With Xiao Qiao
Wei Shao doesn’t go to see a doctor after knowing he was drugged. He’s driven by the desires of his heart. He goes to Xiao Qiao’s room in The Prisoner of Beauty episode 10. Xiao Qiao doesn’t know what happened. She mistakes that her husband is sick.
She brings some water to Wei Shao. But he cannot control his feelings for her. He carries her to his bed and he tries to take off her clothes. It’s obvious that he wants to hurt her for resolving his problem. She begs him to forgive her when she reminds him that he promised not to touch her.
But he’s a beast now. She has to slap him. The slap makes him sober. He realizes that he almost slept with her. But he needs to resolve the temperature problem. He gets in a bathtub and he asks her to get him some ice. He’s fine after she took care of him.
Wei Shao’s behavior is terrible even if he was drugged by his mother. It shows his lust for Xiao Qiao. The drug just makes him expose his true thoughts. He wants to take her virginity. Especially he’s driven by his resentment. Fortunately, he gives up in the end.
Xiao Qiao feels sorry for Wei Shao because she knows his grandfather would die if her grandfather didn’t betray his grandfather. This is why she married him and she gave the city to him. She knows they will sleep together one day since they got married. But her grandfather just died. She doesn’t want to fulfill her duties as his wife at this time. Because she misses her grandfather.
She plans to do it after one year. She will sleep with him and she will give a birth for him. She cares for her virginity very much as a traditional woman. She won’t give herself to him before she confirms that he’s the man she can trust.
Wei Shao regrets after he was slapped. He tried to show it to his wife that he’s a cool man. He won’t be tempted by any woman even if she’s pretty. But he almost took her virginity. He doesn’t know how to face Xiao Qiao. This is why he volunteers to go to Yongning Channel when the place needs to be checked.
Xiao Qiao fears Wei Shao after the accident. She’s startled to step back when the man tries to check her wound on her hand. She worries that the man will do it to her again. She’s not sure if he will stop when she slaps him again.
Why Does Xiao Qiao Slap Wei Shao?
Xiao Qiao is a virtuous wife in The Prisoner of Beauty. She takes care of Wei Shao very well. She does a better job than Mrs. Zhu. Mrs. Zhu knows nothing about her son. She only knows to help Zheng Shu get her son. She comes up with an evil plan and she hurts Wei Shao.
Xiao Qiao is surprised that his husband becomes a beast when she stays with him alone in the room. He’s strong and he plans to force her to accept his bad behavior. She knows she needs to do something when she’s in the bad situation. She slaps him without any hesitation. Because she knows she will be hurt if she doesn’t stop him. She wants to tell him that she’s his wife. He needs to respect her when she’s ready for it.
Xiao Qiao looks weak. But she has high self-esteem. She knows she represents Qiao family. Qiao family would be bullied if she was bullied. So she resists strongly when Wei Shao tries to kiss her. She wants to tell her husband that she’s not an easy woman. She can take care of him. But he shouldn’t bully her.
Xiao Qiao doesn’t love Wei Shao even if they got married. She married him because she wanted to guard her family. She knows what will happen to her because he loses his mind. He becomes a different person. He’s not the arrogant man she knows anymore. He becomes a lecherous who wants to attack her.
She feels comfortable when he approaches her. The man is rude and he doesn’t know how to respect women. What he shows to her is that he won’t be gentle to her during the process. She’s the granddaughter of Lord Qiao. She’s the princess of Yan State. She comes from a noble family. She doesn’t want anyone to trample her even if her family owes his family three lives. She doesn’t want to pay it with her chastity, especially she doesn’t have feelings for him.
Xiao Qiao is like many girls who want to marry the man they love. But she has no choice because she needs to sacrifice for her family. She knows Wei Shao won’t be nice to her because he doesn’t want to forget the resentment. She’s startled when he tries to be intimate with her. She doesn’t know his mother drugged him. So she slaps him for stopping him.
