She had to be naked forever because she violated the curse's prohibition by telling about the curse to others.

While Mei Ling was extremely ****, she suddenly saw her little friend Ji Wei pulling the reins of Zinxi's horse back.

Her short but kind friend- Ji Wei said in a panting voice because he had just chased Zinxi's horse:

• Your Highness Zinxi, please, don't go! Listen to Princess Mei Ling! I helped her set up the tent. She waited for you, all for love.

Zinxi coldly replied:

• Why should I stay for a frivolous girl? She... she is Mei Ling, the exhibitionist princess that the people of the three countries Yan, Zhongshan, Zhao still talk about!

Ji Wei tried to convince:

_- Mei Ling has to be naked because she has a disease that prevents her from touching fabric. Rumors can be misleading. I've seen how she interacts with nature, how she cares for her surroundings. There's nothing frivolous about her._

Zinxi kindly replied to the Ji Wei:

• Oh innocent boy, you have been in the mountains for too long without contact with the outside world, so you easily believe in the illness she made up.

At this moment, Mei Ling saw that even her only little friend Ji Wei was about to misunderstand her. She had an irresistible reason, but that day Mei Ling really made up a story about the illness to tell Ji Wei.

She could not accept that her budding love and friendship would be extinguished by misunderstanding, and Mei Ling made a decision that was considered a turning point. She decided to do the forbidden thing and tell about the curse to others.

She told Zinxi and Ji Wei the entire story, from the zither music to the Yan soldiers, the story of her time in the Xiongnu tent and the 玉女樓 (Jade Maiden Tower).

Zinxi opened his eyes wide to verify:

• Mei Ling, wear this cloak. If it doesn't melt into water, then you're lying

Mei Ling immediately put this cloak on her hair, this cloak immediately melted into a puddle of water.

At this moment, Zinxi began to truly repent, he hugged Mei Ling and blamed himself:

• Mei Ling, I was wrong. All those rumors... I was stupid to believe them. You are not frivolous, Mei Ling. You are brave, and you are beautiful.

All misunderstandings were cleared up, Zinxi thanked Ji Wei and before Ji Wei returned home, Zinxi gave him a pearl as a souvenir.

At this moment, only Zinxi remained and was covering Mei Ling's naked body to protect her from the biting cold. Mei Ling whispered about the days of hardship, tears glistening in her eyes:

Zinxi, I have been cursed since leaving Tianming Mountain, every day I have to endure, being humiliated, being harassed by mockers and lustful people... because I am a princess who always lives naked. But I am still **** to be naked. Naked to find you! I thought that if I could only win your heart, everything would be alright! But now, with you thinking I'm something I'm not... I can't bear it!

Zinxi gently comforted her:

• Mei Ling, I'm so sorry. I was wrong to judge you. From now on, I will stand by your side, no matter what.

Mei Ling breathed a sigh of relief and replied:

• It's okay, Zinxi. I just want to be with you.

Suddenly at this moment, a strong wind carrying a strange golden light suddenly blew across the mountain. This phenomenon was exactly the same as before and Mei Ling began to have a premonition of fear. A ray of light cut through the air, illuminating the ground with words as if carved on stone:

• Princess Mei Ling, the curse clearly stated that you were not allowed to mention it to anyone. But today you deliberately violated the prohibition by telling about the curse to two people, Zinxi and Ji Wei. Therefore, your journey to break the curse has ended in failure. This is the final message that the heavens have sent to you, please listen carefully.

A strange voice rang out, both melodious and haunting, echoing in the space in a phantom and ethereal way:

-_ Princess Mei Ling, for this transgression, you will have to live naked forever. A life of naked humiliation, ridiculed and harassed by the world because of your naked body that can never be covered by a piece of cloth._

Mei Ling cried, in pain in her heart:

• I will have to be naked forever? No!...How cruel! How unfair!

Zinxi hugged Mei Ling tightly and reassured:

• Mei Ling, listen to me. I will love you forever, no matter what. Your eternal nakedness is not a curse; it is a part of you. I will protect you, no matter the cost. If the world wants to judge you. I will stand by you.
