Situ Yan walked over, puzzled, and immediately noticed the piece of paper on the table.
The paper was labeled 'Divorce Agreement'.
Situ Yan's eyes darkened, and his hands clenched tightly under his sleeves.
Ah Li sat behind the desk and slowly spoke, "Thank you for your cooperation on our wedding yesterday."
Yesterday was the wedding day, and the hall was filled with guests. However, Xu Yue, the son of the Xu family, called off the wedding on the spot.
He pushed aside the guards holding the woman, picked up his child, and left with the woman.
Before leaving, he also said, "I'm sorry, I can't marry you."
Someone tried to stop him, but he only paused for a moment and said, "Princess, if you are unwilling to let us leave, then all you will get is my corpse."
"Let him go!"
The eldest princess, who was being held in trust, was so angry that she pointed at the people watching the ceremony and pointed at Situ Yan, saying, "Someone, change that person into wedding clothes!"
At that time, when Situ Yan was taken away to change into her wedding clothes, she did not resist at all.
Ahri silently placed her hand on her forehead, massaging it with a rather painful headache.
Isn't Xu Yue just taking advantage of 'her' affections to act with impunity?
If she were present, she would have caused the groom to suddenly fall ill and die on the spot.
She is the most honored princess of this dynasty, but whether it is true or not is up to her to decide.
Also, who ordered that woman and child to be brought here?
At this moment, Ahri felt a pair of hands massaging her forehead, and a refreshing pine scent wafted around her.
"Your Highness, I don't want a divorce. I will be obedient."
Situ Yan placed his hand on Ah Li's head and pressed down with just the right amount of pressure.
Ah Li leaned lazily to the right, landing right next to Situ Yan. She raised her head slightly, looking at him with an air of arrogant nobility. "You're friends with that guy from the Xu family. I don't want to see anyone or anything related to him right now..."
Before Ah Li could finish speaking, Situ Yan quickly said, "Your Highness, I became friends with him because of you."
The massaging motion continued.
Ah Li remained calm, not at all taken aback by those words, and waited for Situ Yan to continue.
Situ Yan pursed his lips. "It was because Your Highness used to like to be around that person that I got to know him. If it weren't for Your Highness, that person wouldn't be worthy of being my friend at all."
Ahri didn't show much emotion when she heard this.
Outside the door, a report came: "Princess, Young Master Situ's father and grandfather have arrived."
At this moment, Bai Lan, a lady-in-waiting serving the princess, knocked twice on the door and respectfully inquired, "Does the princess wish to see you?"
Last night, Situ Yan stayed at the Princess's residence.
No one dared to divulge even a whisper about the wedding.
Situ Yan's family had no idea that he had married the princess.
Yesterday, so many guests were stunned; they were amazed that Xu Yue dared to elope on the spot.
The people around the eldest princess were even more decisive at that time, directly pulling one person from among the guests to change into wedding clothes.
Now that Situ Yan has become the imperial son-in-law, it's time to give the Situ family an explanation.
Ah Li lowered her eyes, still leaning against Situ Yan, and said, "Have someone come in and help us change."
"Here you go."
Bai Lan led the group in.
Behind her were people holding wooden trays with clothes, shoes, and hair ornaments on them.
"Go change."
Ah Li sat up straight, picked up the divorce papers from the table, and put them under one of the books.
Bai Lan also came over at this time and helped Ah Li change her clothes.
Situ Yan did not have the palace maids around him help him change his clothes. He had someone give him the clothes and went behind the screen to change himself.
