At that moment, Zhao Changhe was utterly bewildered.
"Weren't you the one who said 'willing to be your concubine', not competing with others?" How come your behavior isn't matching up at all as soon as day breaks? Is it like how I used to say I'd wake up early the day before I crossed over, then completely forget the next day? Is that what you mean?
It's bad enough that you openly bring this up in the court, but the most treacherous part is that the new King must win over Tang first and foremost. He should agree to whatever reward she requests immediately. Not to mention granting her a marriage to a man, what's the big deal with that?
Zhao Changhe tried to think from Xia Chichi's perspective and could barely find a solution. Could it be that they would tear each other apart in front of the court during the founding ceremony?
But he had no solution either!
