She didn't even know what she was happy about.
It's like...
Seeing that Zhou Cheng wasn't fickle, that he wasn't both kind to Cheng Xianyi and unable to let go of Lin Jiaoyun at the same time, gave me the feeling that I hadn't misjudged him.
It seemed that this would prove her judgment was indeed correct; Zhou Cheng was indeed different from other young masters in Yan Kingdom, and truly worthy of her special attention...
"What's good?"
“Zhou Cheng already has someone he loves. Miss Cheng is stunningly beautiful and is engaged to Zhou Cheng. He may not agree to befriend the court.”
"Furthermore... Moreover, I don't even like Zhou Cheng!"
The eldest princess pursed her lips tightly, unsure whether she was denying her own thoughts or implying that the marriage was too hasty: "My previous interest in him was at the request of my younger brother."
"I will not agree to this marriage!"
"I will go to the palace immediately to explain things to my father and persuade him to give up this idea!"
The eldest princess lifted her skirt and stood up, immediately heading towards the palace.
She walked very fast the whole way, as if someone was chasing her.
Can--
When they actually arrived at the palace gates...
The eldest princess paused again.
She clutched the imperial edict in her hand, glanced up at the magnificent palace gates, and for some reason, suddenly recalled her father's cold and disdainful words on the day her mother died in childbirth...
'The delivery room is filthy; how can I, the supreme ruler, enter?!'

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you mustn't! The imperial decree has been issued; His Majesty's words are law, how can they be taken back once they've been spoken?"
"You mustn't anger His Majesty at this time."
"Yes, Princess!"
"The Xiongnu in the east and west have been causing trouble for the Yan Kingdom for many years. If you refuse this marriage alliance and anger His Majesty, what if he sends you to marry the Xiongnu in a fit of rage?"
"Perhaps things can still turn around. If you really don't want to get married, why don't you talk to His Highness the Crown Prince? He will definitely help you."
“.......
The princess ignored what the female official and maid said. She felt a tightness in her chest and suddenly didn't want to see Emperor Yan anymore.
But she doesn't like Zhou Cheng!
What happened to her?
Why did she feel more joy than resistance when she received the imperial decree? She even felt a little smug. She clearly had no romantic feelings for Zhou Cheng; she was merely envious of his meticulous and attentive treatment...
The eldest princess would think about it occasionally.
I wish I could meet a husband as considerate and devoted as Zhou Cheng someday.
If only the woman Zhou Cheng cared for that day had been her.
"Forget it, let's go back to the manor. Zhou Cheng's heart and eyes are full of Miss Cheng. He probably won't agree to marry me..."
