Nangong Qin was startled and looked back subconsciously.
Because he also heard that the sound came from behind the gauze curtain.
If his guess was correct, the person speaking should be Princess Sarah, who had never shown up.
"Princess Sara actually spoke?"
"What a miracle!"
"We have gone through so many trials, and she has never said a word. Now she makes an exception for Nangong Qin, the insincere prince of the Yong'an Empire. What's going on?"
As a voice came from behind the gauze curtain, the princes from various countries who were still laughing at Nangong Qin were all shocked.
Even the person in charge of registration said cautiously: "Your Royal Highness, do you have something to say?"
"good!"
The gentle and delicate voice came from behind the gauze curtain again, "A gift must not only be judged by its value, but also by its sincerity, so please record this gift from Prince Nangong as well!"
"This... is to comply with Her Royal Highness the Princess's decree!"
Princess Sarah personally pleaded for Nangong Qin, and the person in charge of registration did not dare to say anything more. He immediately put away Nangong Qin's gifts and recorded them in the record.
"Thanks to the princess's love, this prince has just shown off his shame!"
Nangong Qin quickly thanked him.
But the princes from all over the world cast disdainful glances at him.
"Tch, the villain succeeds!"
"I really don't know what Princess Sara is thinking, actually saying good things for Nangong Qin?"
"Could it be that Princess Sara is still an ignorant little girl with a new love interest, so she naively thinks that sincerity is above material things?"
"If this is true, then this Princess Sarah is indeed too unruly and willful!"
"Don't worry, the high priest and the king are here, and Princess Sara won't let her do anything wrong!"
"There should be other assessment items next. I don't believe that Nangong Qin can still be as opportunistic as before."
I don’t know if it’s a sour grape mentality, but everyone despises Nangong Qin.
While everyone waited patiently, the moderator's melodious voice came out again from the high platform, "Next, Princess Sarah is invited to ask a few questions. Among the princes participating in the marriage recruitment, whose answer satisfies Her Highness the most, will
He will be the consort of my Moon Worshiping Empire!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar!
"What?
You actually use answering questions as the final review criterion?”
"Isn't this deliberately playing tricks on us?"
"Yes, we have come all the way here for Princess Sarah's marriage, and we are so well prepared, but in the end, we were told that answering questions will be the final assessment criterion. It is simply ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!"
"So it seems that our previous competition was a waste of time and energy?"
"If I had known this, I would have just asked Princess Sarah to choose the consort. Why do we, the princes, have to fight like clowns?"
The princes of various countries were indignant and seemed to regard this assessment method as child's play.
"Everyone, please stay calm!"
On the high platform, the host reached out and pressed the button in the air, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then patiently explained: "Although the answer to the last question is the key, the choice of Her Royal Highness the Princess is based on the comprehensive abilities of all the princes.
considerate!"
"Only after the few rounds of competitions just now, Her Royal Highness can better see the abilities of each prince in all aspects and make a more accurate judgment!"
After hearing this, the angry expressions of all the princes finally softened a bit.
If it needs to be considered comprehensively, then their previous rounds of competition were indeed not in vain.
"Since the princes have no objections, please ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to ask the first question, and then the princes can answer according to their own ideas."
As the host's voice fell, everyone's eyes gathered behind the gauze curtain again.
There was a blurry person sitting there.
Because it was blocked by the gauze, no one could see her face clearly, and they could only roughly see her body shape.
"Princes, my first question is..."
Under the gauze curtain, Princess Sarah's gentle and delicate voice came out, "If you marry me, which prince can swear that he will never take concubines for the rest of his life!"
In an instant, all the princes were stunned.
"What?
Will you never take concubines again for the rest of your life?"
"How can this be?"
"We are all princes of the same country and have a distinguished status. How can we not keep concubines for the rest of our lives?"
"Even if we don't think about continuing the bloodline of the royal family, with our status, we can't just guard one woman, right?"
"Princess Sara, this question is too tricky!"
"She knew that no one could do it, but she deliberately brought it up. Could it be that she was deliberately trying to make us give up?"
"How about I agree for the time being and change my mind later?"
"It's best not to do this, otherwise you will be breaking your promise. At least it will destroy your reputation, and at worst it may cause a dispute between your country and the Moon Worshiping Empire. The gain outweighs the loss!"
"Yes, if you can't do it, it's better not to say anything!"
The princes discussed in low voices, but no one was willing to answer the question raised by Princess Sara directly.
Even Ye Chen found it a little funny.
This is a different world of the ancients. In an era when there were more women than men, it was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines.
Not to mention royal blood relatives!
Princess Sarah actually wanted the man who married her to never have concubines for the rest of his life. This request was indeed a bit harsh for everyone.
However, just when everyone thought that Princess Sarah was lonely...
"If I could marry Princess Sarah, I would never take a concubine again for the rest of my life!"
An impassioned voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.
In an instant, the whole place fell silent.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, their eyes filled with confusion and shock.
Which prince is so stupid as to sacrifice his life-long happiness in order to marry Princess Sarah?
"Haha, it's actually him?"
"Nangong Qin?"
"The dignified fifth prince of the Yong'an Empire actually sacrificed his happiness for the rest of his life in order to marry a princess from a small empire. Why is he doing this?"
"He can't be serious, can he?"
"I think he must be lying!"
"I also think that if he dares to say this, it should be a delaying tactic. Maybe after a year or two, he will regret it again. With the national power of the Yong'an Empire, what can the Moon Worshiping Empire do to him no matter how unwilling it is?"
"Only he dares to lie and swear in front of so many people!"
When they saw the speaker clearly, all the princes present burst into laughter.
Even people like Ye Chen, Li Fengyu, Nangong Kaige, Nangong Mingyue, and Jin Lin had expressions of surprise on their faces.
Nangong Qin was no longer favored in the Yong'an Empire, but he was still a dignified imperial prince after all.
Is it worth making such a big sacrifice in order to marry Princess Sara?
"Apart from Nangong Qin, the fifth prince of the Yong'an Empire, is there any other prince who can fulfill the request I just made?"
At this time, Princess Sara's delicate voice came from behind the gauze curtain.
No one answered.
Except for Nangong Qin, all the princes present were silent.
"Since no one has answered, then it is time for all the princes to see my true appearance!"
As Princess Sarah's voice fell, the hanging gauze curtain was slowly opened by the two maids.
