Jiang Ranli was so frustrated she felt like spitting up blood. She had just been confessed to by the male god she had a crush on for several years, and before she could even hold his hand, she tran...
Princess Toya didn't look at Jiang Ranli. She walked to a piece of grass with her head down and sat down listlessly. She continued, "I originally planned to accept my fate. Anyway, all those men have three wives and four concubines, so what difference does it make who I marry."
After saying that, Princess Toya looked up at Jiang Ranli, and the listlessness on her face disappeared completely. "After drinking and chatting with you that day, I suddenly felt that I couldn't think that way. Even if my identity is destined to embark on the path of arranged marriage, even if I get married, I have to find someone I like. I can be ready to marry for the sake of my tribe and my father at any time, but I also want to live for myself."
After she finished speaking, the corners of Tuoya Gege's rosy lips turned up, and her smile became bright and cheerful.
Looking at the person in front of her with a bright smile, Jiang Ranli was deeply touched. She admired her dedication to the tribe and felt sorry for her predetermined fate.
Being born into a royal family of a tribe is both a blessing and a curse. The blessing is that she has a noble status and a superior life that ordinary people cannot achieve. The curse is that she is less free than ordinary people. She cannot marry independently, and even her parents cannot make the decision for her. She can only be used as a bargaining chip and marry off to the tribe or other people who need her to marry.
"Princess Toya, your servant..."
"You still say you are a slave. I am going to be angry."
Jiang Ranli wanted to comfort Tuoya Gege, but was interrupted by her angry voice as soon as he opened his mouth.
Seeing the anger on Tuoya Gege's delicate face, Jiang Ranli raised his lips and smiled, "I understand, don't be angry, be careful that you will become ugly if you are angry too often."
Hearing Jiang Ranli's words, Toya Gege immediately put on a happy smile on her face as if by magic, "Li'er, you are the only one who talks to me like this. I feel very comfortable with you."
Although her father, mother, and brothers doted on her, they never spoke to her like a friend. There were many peers of noble status in the tribe, but when she was with them, Princess Toya never dared to relax, for fear that she would say or do something wrong and be criticized by her father, mother, and brothers.
"Princess, I admire you very much for having such a spirit of self-sacrifice for the greater good. You are the bravest, most free and beautiful princess I have ever met."
If you only look at Toya Gege's appearance, your first impression will definitely be that she is spoiled. But after getting in touch with her, you will realize how admirable the girl in front of you is, and how sensible she is that makes people feel distressed.
Tuoya Gege couldn't deny Jiang Ranli's words, and joked with a smile, "Did you eat honey today? How can you say such sweet words?"
"I didn't eat the honey, but I met someone sweeter than honey," Jiang Ranli sat down next to Tuoya Gege and responded to her jokingly.
The girls' laughter on the grassland is as clear as silver bells and it drifts everywhere with the breeze and sunshine, making the green grassland more vibrant and more charming.
"Princess, you will definitely meet someone who loves you, cares for you, and treats you like a pearl."
After laughing and joking, Jiang Ranli spoke seriously. She now understood why Prince Hetala was so excited when Emperor Kangxi said that Princess Toya should always be happy. It turned out that Emperor Kangxi's words were not just the surface meaning, but also implied that Princess Toya would not be betrothed to any other prince.
"This princess is so good, of course there will be such a person," Princess Toya said confidently with her chest puffed out.
She is a girl from the grassland, enthusiastic, open-minded and lively. This kind of confidence and brightness is what she should be like.
