The Princess of Fyn was infamous for her scandalous reputation. Whispers painted her as a shameless and frivolous woman who treated men like disposable trinkets, casting them aside as soon as someone more handsome caught her eye. Rumor had it she kept a harem of thirty-six men! When the Crown Prince of a wealthy kingdom arrived to end their engagement, he didn’t mince words. "I don’t like you. Let’s break up." To his surprise, the princess beamed with delight."Okay." Next came the Demon Prince, known for his ruthless demeanor and striking looks. "You’re not good-looking enough to be my bride," he sneered. "Let’s call this off." The princess responded cheerfully, "Sure thing." Then, the Dragon Prince—the man celebrated as the most handsome in the world—delivered his verdict. "You’re a vile woman. I don’t like you." The princess clapped her hands in excitement."Good, good! I feel the same!" After breaking off thirty-two engagements, the princess ascended the throne. Free at last from the chains of marriage, she eagerly embraced her dream of living as a carefree "salted fish." Who needed men when there was good food to enjoy? But her peace didn’t last long. The very next day, a crowd of handsome men gathered at the palace gates, their expressions filled with regret. "We were wrong! Please take us back!" The princess crossed her arms and sighed. "There's too many of you " " You can put us all in Your Harem!" The Princess declared " But I don't want a Harem! "
When King Edge heard this, his face was even more unsightly. This Lu Wentian was really a hypocrite! To be able to pass on the blame for his son's recklessness onto someone else—how shameless!
"Since your son doesn't wish to give my family face, I see no reason to entertain you further. Lu Wentian, consider the engagement proposal rejected."
"Don't be hasty, Edge," Lu Wentian was one of the few people who could call the king by his real name so casually. "Why don't we postpone this event until tomorrow? Lu Sin should be in the palace by then. We'll hear his side of the story."
Edge was still against the idea; he didn't want Lu Wentian and his people residing in the palace at all. But if he rejected the idea, it would be too obvious that he didn't want them here. He was so angry, but he still had to show some respect to the Demon Venerable. He reluctantly agreed, but it didn't mean he'd be persuaded to accept the union between their two families.
