The eldest princess looked at Prince Ding. He was the one who married her, and the emperor was the one who bestowed the marriage upon her. Even if she now felt that the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family was unfit to be Prince Ding's consort, it was not her place to annul the engagement.
Prince Ding frowned deeply and remained silent.
