Chapter 650 - Marriage alliance (1/2)
Zhao Ming swallowed her saliva as her grip around the cushion which was on her lap tightened.
Sweat beads started to appear on her forehead as strange memories like scenes started to appear in front of her closed eyes. Though the dream which invaded her sleep was not as bloody as before but she wasn't particularly happy.
It was an empty feeling.
In the dream, she saw a young girl which she had seen previously in her dream which was crying on the battlefield with blood-splattered everywhere.
The young girl was sitting in her spacious luxurious old room which seemed like her chamber and was crying pitifully.
” Miss, please don't cry. If you cry like this, then I will also start to cry. ” A young girl standing beside her patted the shoulders of the girl.
The girl covered her face with her palms and wailed louder and said, ” How can father do something like this to me? I am his only daughter. I am the Princess of Tan Dynasty, how can he give me away in a marriage alliance like this?” She sobbed as pearl-like tears rolled down from her eyes.
The girl felt bad for her as she tried to calm her down, ” Why are you thinking like this? I am sure His Majesty must have chosen a capable man for you. You know how much he loves you. How can he give your hand in marriage to anyone.” She patted her Miss's shoulders while passing her a glass of water.
Tan Xiu cried loudly hearing her words. She said in a choking voice, ” I don't want any capable man. I..just want... Commander Yuan So..Ahmm.” She cried loudly as she said his name.
The girl was petrified when her Miss called the other man's name so loudly. She covered her mouth with her hand as she looked around.
If anyone heard them calling Commander Yuan Song's name, it would not only start gossip but her image will be ruined.
Such matters especially relating to women can ruin their reputation in the society and if these words fell into His Majesty's ears, then she had no idea what would happen.
” Shh...Miss, how can you take his name so loudly? What if someone heard it?”
Tan Xiu jerked her hand away and glared at her, ” So what? It's good that they will hear it. I don't care. I want him and only him. Even though I am the princess of the Tan Dynasty, do I have to sacrifice my love for a man who is already married and has many concubines?”
” You said, capable man? Even though he is an Emperor, he can't be compared to my Commander Yuan. He is just a pervert who looks at girls with his cheap eyes. I wanted to gauze his eyes out when I saw him at the banquet.” She huffed in anger as she broke the sculpture placed on the table.
” Miss...shh.. you can't speak like this so loudly about your...to be husband.”
Tan Xiu huffed in anger as she slapped her hand away.
” Who said he is going to be my husband? I don't agree with this marriage. I am not getting married to that stupid perverted Emperor. I need to tell my Commander Yuan. Only he can convince my father at this moment. ” She stood up from her chair, wanting to go out.
