Chu Yuxiao smiled and pulled her into his arms, hugging her as he said, "What did Nanzhao Suya say when she came over?"

"You must have guessed it. She asked me to plead with you not to let her marry Cang Mo. I think she’s genuinely scared of Cang Mo, and she’s always been very concerned about this matter."

Chu Yuxiao lowered his head, pinched her nose, and smiled, "You didn’t foolishly promise her anything again, did you?"

Su Yan waved his hand away, pursed her lips, and laughed: 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"I wouldn’t be that foolish anymore. I did promise to plead for her, but only as much as I’m able. I told her to behave well, maybe you won’t have the heart to marry her off. It seems she might be quiet for a long time."

Sighing, she continued, "Actually, she’s not really bad; she just wants to have you too much, so she resorted to schemes.

If we really push her to Cang Mo, it might really turn her bad. Chu Yuxiao, you should refuse this marriage alliance."

"It’s already impossible." Chu Yuxiao suddenly said calmly.

Su Yan sat up straight from his arms, a trace of confusion flashing in her eyes.

"Why?"

He glanced at her and said, "In the morning court today, Cang Mo proposed a marriage alliance between the two countries in front of the ministers, and he specifically named Nanzhao Suya.

Many ministers were eager for a marriage alliance between the two countries, believing it would be beneficial for the Great Nan Dynasty.

In their view, princesses are meant for marriage alliances, especially a princess from the Previous Dynasty, who more than anyone should engage in a marriage alliance. They think that by doing this, the Nan Zhao Family might reclaim the throne someday, with the support from people of Cangyue Country.

It’s simply foolish! Cangyue Country has no small ambitions; they want to marry Nanzhao Suya to become in-laws with the Nan Zhao Family, and later find an excuse to say they are reclaiming the empire for the Nan Zhao Family to attack the Great Nan Dynasty.

They have the ambition to occupy the Great Nan Dynasty, yet they believe Cangyue Country would help them; it’s simply utterly foolish!"

Su Yan frowned seriously, asking, "So what should be done? Is Yaya really going to be married off?"

Chu Yuxiao looked at her and continued with a cold laugh:

"Now, of the offspring of the Nan Zhao Family, the dead are dead, the crippled are crippled; there is simply no one who can take on the great responsibility for the world. Even if there is one, if found, they would still be incapable."
