Su Lixia's lips twitched: "Fate is hard to defy???"
Xue Yurou politely nodded and smiled at Zhang Meier, but from the latter's angle, it looked more like she was mocking her.
Su Lixia slapped her forehead and stepped forward helplessly, saying, "The mansion is decorated nicely. When the Japanese princess gets married, many new dignitaries will be invited from the Central Plains. I hope that Madam and Miss can go and offer their blessings."
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhang was delighted and said with a smile, "Of course, even if the princess hadn't said so, we would have gone anyway."
Zhang Meier, standing to the side, said rather irritably, "Then the princess would better hurry up, otherwise, who knows, it might be ruined by some scheming person."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Madam Zhang said softly.
Su Lixia was also embarrassed, realizing that she seemed to have made things worse by trying to help. After calming down for a while, she said, "Miss Zhang, you are mistaken. I am the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. How can the person I marry be easily ruined by anyone with ulterior motives? I'm not afraid to tell you, the person I marry may not be anyone else."
The onlookers didn't find the princess's words laughable; on the contrary, some felt they had a chance and became more excited, feeling more confident to strike up a conversation.
Xue Yurou's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of barely perceptible disdain.
"Well said, it's not certain who it is."
Upon hearing this, everyone instantly calmed down, because such a powerful and resounding voice was rare throughout the entire country.
Su Lixia was also startled, because she recognized the voice all too well.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed him.
"Greetings, Your Highness." The group bowed.
"Why is Your Highness here too?" Su Lixia asked.
"I heard from Rou'er earlier that Madam Zhang had held a garden party, so I came to take a look after I finished my work. Unfortunately, the princess was giving a lecture."
Su Lixia stopped him: "This is not a lecture, Your Highness. You should watch your words. Besides, everything I said is true."
"I never imagined that women in the Central Plains were more open than women here, even discussing marriage so casually."
Su Lixia felt guilty and nervous, but still said confidently, "So what? Besides, did I say anything wrong?"
Yi Zexuan shook his head helplessly: "It's alright, but since His Majesty has agreed to marry the princess to me as my queen, it's best if the princess doesn't bring this up before she gets married, otherwise I'll lose face."
“Alright, since Your Highness has already said so, let’s not mention it again. Everyone already knows anyway.” Su Lixia smiled smugly.
The latter narrowed his eyes slightly, exuding a dangerous aura.
Now that Yi Zexuan has arrived, the plot must have changed. Su Lixia felt that although she hadn't directly helped, she had indirectly helped, and she felt even more at ease after arguing with him.
"Madam Zhang, then this princess will take her leave now."
"Yes." With that, Madam Zhang was about to follow behind to see the princess off, because in her eyes the princess was more important than the prince.
"Madam, please wait a moment. There are more important people to receive right now."
"This..." Madam Zhang hesitated for a moment, then turned her head to look at Yi Zexuan.
Yi Zexuan turned to Xue Yurou and said, "You can have a good time at the Zhang residence today. I'm relieved to see that they haven't neglected you."
Xue Yurou smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
"Alright, I'll head back now. Let's travel together with the princess."
