Temulans' position in the Great River Kingdom is obvious. He holds military power and is responsible for business dealings with the Phoenix Kingdom. He is a prince with great business skills and knows how to make money and expand his power.
Such a man would not be disadvantaged by marrying him, but the place outside the customs... is not so good, right?
But Dongfang Fengyuan didn’t dare to refuse directly?
I could only say, "I am very grateful to Prince Tiemu for being interested in my daughter. This is the blessing that my daughter has gained from her previous life. However, the Phoenix Kingdom has its own rules, so it still depends on His Majesty's wishes..."
"I understand."
Regardless of Dongfang Fengyuan's inner attitude, Temulans assumed that he had agreed. He would report to His Majesty the Phoenix Kingdom in the future.
…
Zuo Xiangfu, Painting Pavilion.
After Dongfang Hua learned that Temulans had come to propose marriage, he was in a great state of commotion.
Dongfang Hua yelled at Murong Yi, "Mother, I won't marry, and I won't marry that rude man outside the customs at all - Temulans. From the Great River Country, Temulans, he is just a young man outside the customs."
Why does the prince of a small country dare to marry me, the most beautiful woman in Phoenix City?"
"Paint."
Murong Yi thought for a moment, "Hua'er, your father has no right to refuse or agree."
Even though he was impatient and wished Dongfang Fengyuan had refused immediately to save Dongfang Hua from being so upset, Murong Yi understood deeply, "You are a noble lady, everything depends on His Majesty's attitude..."
"Mom, do you think His Majesty will agree to marry me to Temulans?"
Dongfang Hua was anxious and regretful. Why did she go to Tianxiang Tower that day?
Why do you want to integrate into Long Qijin’s world?
If she hadn't thought so and gone to Tianxiang Tower to find Long Qijin, she wouldn't have offended Temulans.
"Mom, I heard... that Temulans married eight princesses, but none of them were alive. But they were all tortured to death by him.
"And they don't care about etiquette and morality at all outside the customs. They often let their wives serve other powerful people. Hua'er doesn't want to end up like this. It's better to let Hua'er die."
Dongfang Hua cried bitterly.
She has a beautiful face. As the most beautiful woman in the Huang Kingdom, she should have chosen the best sons in the world for her. Why is she either married in the dark or married outside the customs?
What else is Temulans' ninth princess to do?
If she really married outside the customs, she would have no power there, and she would not even know how she died in the end.
"Mom, I won't marry you. I won't marry...Mother, you must find a way for me...Mother."
Dongfang Hua threw herself into Murong Yi's arms and kept crying.
"Hua'er, don't worry..."
Murong Yi didn't know what to say, so she had no choice but to pat Dongfang Hua's back to comfort her.
"Aha...good sister."
The sound of charming laughter reached the ears of mother and daughter Murong Yi and Dongfang Hua.
Then, Dongfang Lian appeared in high spirits, "Prince Tiemu sent many valuable betrothal gifts to the palace. He saw that his sister did not go out to see him because she was shy, so he specially asked me to bring this precious gift in and give it to my sister.
you."
Dongfang Lian held a square box in his hand and came in together with Liu'er Lu'er.
Liu'er Lu'er also held many gift boxes in her hands. The two girls opened the gift boxes. They were all filled with glittering golden jewelry, which dazzled Dongfang Hua and Murong Yi.
