The doors of the palace opened, it was a big and extravagant place but not something out of the ordinary.
After all, Zhou was a fairly prosperous and wealthy state.
"Please advance, the emperor awaits you"
The doors of the main room where the morning meeting was held was wide and the emperor was seated on the throne, the three of them leaned over as a sign of respect "greetings his majesty"
"stand up"
"Thank you the majesty of him"
"It's kind of funny, I just sent a letter to the Emperor of Zhou a week ago, who would say that this one would arrive first than mine"
"That means, his majesty, who also wants peace"
The emperor let out a sigh "we have been very cruel, but we had no other choice, the shortage is very serious, although we did not think that we would end up in such a tragic war"
"Your majesty of him, I am Zhou Qing Yu third son of the Emperor of the Zhou state, as his own soldier in war it is a relief to my people that you agree to peace"
"His father, the Emperor of Zhou, wants to make a marriage alliance with his second son, the heir to the throne, but nevertheless, I do not have princesses among my descendants, so I will have to agree to marry my third son with his eighth princess princess"
"It would be an honor to achieve peace and have a wedding to celebrate the union of our peoples"
"My son is ready to leave with you as an act of good faith, as well as the bridal gift"
A handsome young man dressed in a blue suit entered through one of the side doors into the living room.
"good morning father, gentlemen"
all three bowed again "greetings to the majesty of him"
"rise up"
Xue was at the height of the prince and they looked at each other for a moment before the prince spoke "You are a woman !!"
Such an exclamation crossed the entire room.
"That cannot be possible, the state of Zhou has very strict rules about its soldiers in the same way that they only allow men to enter their troops"
Xue took a step forward and looked at Captain Huo who instinctively, having taken his arm, General Huo released her. "Greetings the majesties, what the young prince says is true, I am a girl, my name is Xue Yun, your majesty"
"See father, I'm not crazy, it's a ... wait girl? How old are you?"
"I am almost eleven years old the majesty of him"
Both the emperor and the prince clamored at such a revelation "eleven years?"
"Young lady, if you are eleven years old, what are you doing in the army?"
General Huo wanted to open his mouth to speak, however, the emperor raised his hand as a sign of silence "I want young Xue to speak?"
