"Your Majesty, since this conversation is related to Princess Xiu's future, we should have the person in question here with us. I'd like to hear her opinion on this matter, as well." The Royal Treasurer said.

"No! I don't care what you guys say! You will not convince me to sell my beloved daughter!" Emperor Xiu exclaimed, remaining adamant.

"But nobody is telling Your Majesty to sell Princess Xiu… If the Princess fancies Tian Xian, everything is fine. Or does Your Majesty plan on keeping Princess Xiu single for the rest of her life…?" One of the Generals asked.

Emperor Xiu clenched his teeth in frustration, but he was unable to answer the General's question. Naturally, he couldn't let Xiu Mei remain alone forever, but he also couldn't imagine anyone being worthy of her.

After spending several hours convincing the Emperor, they summoned Xiu Mei's presence into the room and explained the situation to her.

"So, in order to ensure that Tian Xian's loyalty remains with the Xiu Family, we have decided to find him a partner—"

"I will marry him!" Xiu Mei gave her response before they could even finish explaining the situation.

"L-let us finish—"

"No! I will be the one to marry him! That's why you called me here, right?! My answer is yes!" Xiu Mei spoke without hesitation, her eyes flickering with excitement.

Xiu Mei's enthusiasm left the Emperor utterly speechless, even devastated. However, he was unable to find the strength to talk her out of it.
