"Xiu Mei, because of your reckless actions, we've lost several powerful allies. Even worse, they have formed an alliance that will now directly challenge us. At this rate, there will be war, and our victory isn't guaranteed." Emperor Xiu sighed in front of his beloved daughter. He would've never imagined that his most precious and gentle daughter would cause such trouble, and it was all for a single soldier.

"Can we even call them allies when they have clearly planned on opposing us for some time now? If I hadn't acted and exposed their true faces, we wouldn't have known about it until we had a sword stabbed in our back!" Xiu Mei rebuked.

The room fell silent after Xiu Mei's words.

"Your Majesty, I have to agree with the Princess on this matter. Her actions and reasoning aside, it showed us the true colors of those traitorous bastards. The Lee Family and the others would have eventually stabbed us in the back if given the chance regardless if Princess Xiu had beaten their children or not. We should immediately start preparing to deal with them." One of the most trusted and experienced Royal Advisors there said.

"Not just that. Those families are rumored to have some shady business running in the shadows. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to secure any solid evidence that could incriminate them yet," said one of their Generals.

"I am actually glad that the Princess had done what she did. Those children are infamous troublemakers. We've received a mountain of complaints from the citizens because of them. Moreover, it exposed their true colors to us, allowing us to take action faster."

The majority of people in the room expressed their support for Xiu Mei. Seeing this, Emperor Xiu could no longer find it in him to punish her and sighed, "You got lucky this time, Xiu Mei. I won't punish you as the Emperor, but as your father, I have to ensure you won't do something so reckless again. That young soldier who made you do this… I forbid you from seeing him again."

"What?! But father—!" Xiu Mei immediately tried to protest.

she was quickly rejected, "If you agree to never see him again, I will allow him to continue working as a soldier
