August 8th marked the day Princess Cuiwei would marry into Xiliang.
Despite all the days filled with scheming and fighting, regardless of the Old Emperor and the Empress's ploys, and no matter how deeply Su Tianyou confessed his feelings, Princess Cuiwei's heart remained unchanged.
She was determined to marry into that distant land of Xiliang.
The night before the wedding, the Empress could no longer hold back and personally visited Princess Cuiwei's palace, hoping for one final meeting with her daughter.
Since her daughter's marriage was now an unchangeable fact, this last meeting was essential. If this could unravel the knot that had lingered between mother and daughter for years, it would be all the better.
However, the Empress was disappointed once again this time.
"Your Majesty, Her Highness the Princess has been very tired today and has retired early. We hope Your Majesty understands."
