“That’s great!”
The Empress nodded in agreement. “Indeed, I should set a date for my sister’s wedding.”
The Empress looked at Darryl with a smile. “Darryl, which day do you think is good for the wedding?”
The Empress would have never taken the initiative to discuss the matter before that day. She would have set the date without asking for Darryl’s opinion. After all, she was the Empress.
However, Darryl’s impressive performance that day had truly amazed her. That was why she discussed the wedding affair with Darryl.
“Err…”
Darryl scratched his head lazily. Finally, he smiled and said, “Any day is okay with me.”
Darryl thought that the wedding was a happy event, so it would definitely be a good day on any day. He smiled and glanced at Quincy, who sat opposite him.
He chuckled.
‘Quincy always thought of herself as a dignified princess. She looked down on me, but now she is marrying me to be my wife?’
Mmm!
The Empress nodded at Darryl’s reply. She gave an order to the eunuch next to her. “Go and check the almanac; see if there is any lucky day within these few days.”
The eunuch nodded and went off quickly.
“Sister!”
Quincy stood up and said, “I don’t want to get married right now.”
She tilted her head and gave Darryl a fierce look when she said that.
She was upset because Darryl was indifferent about the wedding—the marriage was related to her happiness. She could not accept his behavior.
Quincy had changed her opinion of Darryl after she observed his performance for the past few days, but she had not accepted him entirely.
Quincy had to stop the Empress as she was about to set a date for her wedding.
The civil and military officials were in an uproar. Then, they began to persuade Quincy.
“Your Highness, Prince Consort is such a great talent. You probably can’t find another man like him in all nine continents.”
“Yes, even the Ghost Valley Sage agreed to help him. Who else in the world had the same honor?”
“Your Highness, aren’t you asking for too much of a person?”
Quincy shuddered; she stomped her feet angrily when all the ministers tried to talk her into the wedding.
Those ministers usually treated Quincy with respect. They dared not refute anything she said, but that day, they were on Darryl’s side.
Quincy’s pretty face flushed; she could not say anything else because she was in a rage. She still looked very charming even though she was embarrassed and angry.
“Shut up!”
Finally, Quincy could not take it anymore. She looked around coldly and snorted in disgust.
