366 How Many Girls Does He Call Sweetheart? (2/2)
Therefore she made up her mind, ”If Your Majesty allows me to choose, I would like to marry the Crown Prince…”
A sentence that triggered a thousand ripples.
The advocates of the Crown Prince cheered like crazy while the advocates of the Fourth Prince were disappointed and quickly talked to Gu Xietian. They claimed that the parents should be the one who decided for their children so the General Gu needed to have a say in this marriage arrangement.
Gu Xietian was actually somewhat listless. His daughter had changed recently so he was a bit scared of her.
However, this matter had to do with his future stand in the imperial court, thus he had to speak up as a father, ”Your Majesty, I feel extremely grateful for your marriage reward to my daughter.
However, my daughter is just normal woman and a bit too active. I am afraid that she might not be suitable to be Crown Princess. ”
Emperor Xuan interrupted him, ”Do you mean you want to marry your daughter to Rong Chu?”
Gu Xietian made up his mind, ”Yes! I would appreciate it if Your Majesty could promise this marriage arrangement so that my daughter is able to have a promising future!”
The Emperor Xuan had a deep thought, ”This…”
When Rong Jialuo noticed that Emperor Xuan had the intention to get it done, he stepped forward, ”My Emperor Father, I did not want to hide from you. I have secretly promised to marry Xijiu two months ago. I gave her my spiritual heart-shaped bracelet as a token of love and promised that I would not marry other women except for her. She made the same promise too…”
Gu Xijiu secretly shuddered after she heard the speech. However, this was a critical moment, so she had to play along with his story!
The Emperor Xuan frowned and looked at Gu Xijiu, ”Xijiu, is this true? Do you have his spiritual heart bracelet?
Gu Xijiu answered, ”Yes.” Then she took out a bracelet from the storage inside the Firmament Stone. She raised to show the Emperor Xuan, ”Your Majesty, this is the spiritual heart bracelet…”
This was not an ordinary bracelet but the one and only in the world.
