Chapter 689: With the Queen
The King saw the agitated look on Xunyang’s face.
That was what he had expected, but it was already a fixed decision that could not be altered. Xunyang might not be able to accept it yet, but gradually, she would.
He waved his hands, telling Xunyang to listen to him obediently.
“Xunyang, you are not young any more, and you should learn to listen.” The King sounded very serious as he was speaking these words. “You were born as a princess, and you have enjoyed the supreme honor of the Saint Divine Land. You are used to being kowtowed to and flattered, and all of this has been given to you by the Saint Divine Land! You received all of that, and now it is time for you to pay back!”
“…”
“We have made a deal with the Prince of the North Qi Land, and we will be in a very advantageous situation because we have gotten something even more important! We will become an even more powerful land in the future!” the King said, unable to help getting excited, especially after he was reminded of the five powerful creatures.
Xunyang looked at her own father with tears in her eyes. This man who used to pamper her so deeply was now trading her with someone else as if she were a commodity.
When father almost made Mr. Gu marry her, she even thought that it was because her father cared about her and thought about the whole thing from a different perspective to make such a rude decision.
Now she knew everything. It was not true. Father was not considering her; he only cared for his own interest!
“Impossible, I am not marrying him!” Princess Xunyang insisted.
“Xunyang!” The King already started to get angry. “I only needed to write one imperial order to make you marry, but I am here to talk with you patiently, but you have listened to none of my words! You are one of the imperial members, and you should consider the country as the most important thing in your life. You should not be so selfish as to not think about the people of the Saint Divine Land!”
“…”
“There is no negotiation about this, you have to get married!” The King flung his sleeves and left angrily.
Xunyang was left standing right on the spot, crying.
When the Aunt saw the scene, she embraced Princess Xunyang and said, “Princess, don’t worry, I will go to the Queen. She will know what to do!”
Princess Xunyang stopped Aunt. She did not want her to get the Queen. The Queen was not doing well and she had lost her authority. The situation would get worse if she was told. Maybe what her father said was true. She was the Princess of the Saint Divine Land, so she had to make sacrifices for the Saint Divine Land.
Hearing what Princess Xunyang said, Aunt had to drop the argument and asked Princess Xunyang to take a rest inside the room.
Aunt claimed that she was going to fetch some food when she walked out of the palace. She even forgot to use an umbrella, and went directly to the Weiyang Palace.
It was snowing very heavily, but Aunt felt nothing. She was in such a hurry as she headed towards the Weiyang Palace, so when she arrived, she had snowflakes all over her.
Aunt Nan helped her sweep away the snowflakes, served her a cup of hot tea, but Aunt shook her head and said hurriedly, “No time for this, I need to see the Queen, I have to speak with her!”
