C2350 Home of the Emperor
Xiangyang City, the capital of Great Zhou, ancient and prosperous.
In the inner hall of a palace somewhere, a woman with a concave face was pacing back and forth, looking extremely anxious.
"Princess, this servant is back."
A woman hurriedly walked in and immediately knelt in front of the concave face of the woman.
"Lan Ting, quickly get up. There are no outsiders here, so don't be so polite."
A sweet voice sounded. Lan Ting immediately stood up and looked at the haggard Princess of Xiangyang.
When Princess Xiangyang saw Lan Ting stand up, she anxiously asked, "Did you see him? What did he say?"
"This servant is useless, this servant did not see him." Lan Ting said in frustration.
"What's going on?" Princess Xiangyang asked in confusion.
Lan Ting calmed himself down and said, "This servant found out about his residence and found his mother. His mother said that he had already gone to Xuanwu Planet..."
Hearing this, Princess Xiangyang's expression changed drastically and her face turned extremely pale. She knew that the Shenwu Planet was very far away from the Xuanwu Planet. They wouldn't be able to reach there in less than a year, let alone travel back and forth.
At this moment, it was less than a hundred days away from the end of the war. She was afraid that she hadn't reached the Xuanwu Planet yet, so how could she return to the Shenwu Planet?
It's over, it's over now.
They would come to welcome the bride later. In other words, she had to marry a prince from another country. She had not even seen that prince's appearance, yet she was going to spend the rest of her life with him. How could she be willing?
Seeing Princess Xiangyang listless, Lan Ting comforted her. "Princess, his mother said that he could stay in Xuanwu Planet for at most 20 days, and he has left Shenwu Planet for nearly 30 days. " His mother has calculated the days, and he will return to the Shenwu Planet in a few days... "
"Didn't they say that the Shenwu Planet is very far from the Xuanwu Planet, and it would take a year and a half to travel back and forth?"
Hearing Lan Ting's words, Princess Xiangyang's eyes revealed a look of joy. However, that joy was fleeting, and it was replaced by a feeling of sadness that made her want to cry but have no tears, because she took Lan Ting's words as a form of comfort.
Lan Ting said, "Logically speaking, it would take a year and a half to travel back and forth. However, his mother said that they left by flying transport, and the flying transport was extremely fast. It would take them about five days to reach the Xuanwu Planet, so he should be able to return to the Shenwu Planet in thirty days."
Although Princess Xiangyang did not know what flying transport was, it was not surprising that his family was ancient and mysterious, and possessed a magic treasure that was famous for its speed.
If his mother said that he would be able to return, then he would definitely be able to.
Princess Xiangyang said, "Lan Ting, since he is about to return, why don't you wait for him to return and then come to the capital together?"
"Princess, this servant is worried about you. So I wanted to tell you the news, But don't worry, this servant has already told his mother that when he returns, he must rush to the capital." Lan Ting consoled, "Princess, so don't worry."
Princess Xiangyang lightly sighed and said," That is just his mother's excuses. He already has so many wives, how could his mother still accept other women? Especially in an imperial family like ours"
"Then what should we do?" Lan Ting was at a loss as to what to do.
"I don't know what to do either."
Princess Xiangyang looked in the direction where he was. Through the window, she could only see the white clouds floating like her heart.
Her heart had been occupied by him for a long time and she could not get rid of it. There was no other man's position at all. So what if he was a prince?
"Lan Ting, why don't you marry that prince for me?" Princess Xiangyang spoke hesitantly.
"That won't do. After all, this servant's appearance is far from the princess's. There is no way I can pretend to be her. Once I see through it, I will start a war." Lan Ting said worriedly, "Once a war occurs, people will be plunged into misery and suffering. This servant cannot bear such a crime."
When a large-scale war breaks out between countries, the people who suffer the most are the civilians. Princess Xiangyang also understands the stakes involved. Otherwise, she would not compromise.
However, thinking about how she was about to marry into a foreign land, she was still a little unwilling. Initially, she had hoped that the person in her heart would appear, but the person in her heart had already left Shenwu Planet. When he returned, she would have long become another person's wife.1
"Princess, why don't we elect?" Lan Ting said, "When he returns, we'll go and seek refuge with him."
"It's already too late." Princess Xiangyang's ears moved agilely as she said, "Father had previously sent the Royal Guards to monitor my movements. Now that the bridal escort team has arrived, where else can we escape to?"
Lan Ting immediately pricked up his ears. Very quickly, he heard the sound of a sonar approaching from afar.
The wedding procession had arrived. Even if he did come, he probably wouldn't be able to change it.
Lan Ting's expression also changed. He couldn't help but complain. "Princess, this servant had let you escape long ago. You refused to listen and now it is too late to say anything. Sigh..."
Along with Lan Ting's long sigh, Princess Xiangyang's mood was extremely bad as she muttered: Actually, I have my own concerns as well. He is a people in the Jianghu, but I come from an imperial family. We are like people from two different worlds. " Furthermore, he has so many people he loves. "
"Since you know that he has so many people he loves, why do you still like him? Isn't that adding sorrow to your disciple?" Lan Ting couldn't help but complain.
"I don't know why I like him either. Perhaps I simply like him. It has nothing to do with the others around him."
Speaking of him, his handsome smile appeared in Princess Xiangyang's mind.
Actually, when she first met him, she was not moved at all. At that time, she was still rational. As for when she would fall in love with him, she could not say. She only remembered that there was a period of time when her mind was filled with his every frown and smile.
How could someone who was usually so rational become irrational in front of such a thing?
Seeing Princess Xiangyang like this, Lan Ting said helplessly, "Princess, why don't you go to the Imperial Palace and beg His Majesty again? You are the only princess of the current dynasty. His Majesty will definitely not let you marry so far away. ... ""
"In the past, I used to think the same as you. Now, I no longer hold any hope. Father seems to think highly of me. That is only on the surface, but in his heart, the most important thing is still the power of the country."
Princess Xiangyang sighed again.
"This servant is very confused." Lan Ting frowned, "Logically speaking, our Great Zhou is prosperous and has many talents. We are not afraid of a small northern barbarian country. Why do we still need to make friends?"
"The Great Zhou indeed looks very prosperous and at the same time very decayed. The Northern Barbarian Kingdom has always been eyeing the Great Zhou covetously, so Father has no choice but to come up with this plan." Princess Xiangyang said.
"He is so powerful. As long as the Northern Barbaric Nation dares to show its fangs, His Majesty can make him come out. With his methods, he can destroy a nation alone. Isn't this better?" Lan Ting asked.
Hearing this, Princess Xiangyang's eyes lit up and she said, "Lan Ting, Do you think Father has the same idea?"
