In the beginning, he said, "A lowly commoner from Jiangning County? What a disgraceful status, I won't marry her!"
After meeting her, he clicked his tongue, "So frail and delicate, she can't stand a blow, too weak, I refuse!"
When she approached him alone, carrying the marriage book, he stood leaning on the door, grinning insolently, "Are you here to make me marry you? But this young master doesn’t want to marry young!"
Upon learning she was there to annul their marriage, his face turned dark as a thunderstorm, emanating a murderous aura, "Who gave you the guts to revoke the marriage with this young master?"

Su Rong felt, Duanhua Princess must be blind, this man was so pampered and spoiled, how was he worth dying or living for?
If she had known earlier, she would have thrown the divorce letter at his face the first time she saw him.

The tender signs of spring on the delicate Hibiscus pillow, amidst the drunken flowers filling the room, unnoticed. — Su Rong.
A gallant young man in fine clothes and on a steed, a single glance causes a lifetime of confusion. — Zhou Gu
Your wish is my wish. I wish to have known you earlier, protect you among the aromatic chambers strewn with brocades. Tear through the illusions, cut down the thorns, with hands unstained by blood, just as pure as you were when we first met, the young and soft little girl.
Your wish is my wish. I wish I had known you sooner when you were like a refreshing breeze near the moon. I dared not approach for fear of disturbing the phoenix and mandarin ducks. Praying to be the moon in the sky to cast a reflection on you, accompany you while you watch the flowers bloom in the spring and gaze at the snow in winter, each and every year at Chang'an.

Flowers Drunk Fill the Hall

Xie Lin had just been chatting with the oldest princess, Sheng An, when he heard that Lady Su Qi had arrived. 'Zhou Gu is such a fool,' Xie Lin thought to himself. 'I set up an opportunity for him, and he couldn't even keep her here for a while.'


Quickly, Princess Sheng An ordered her servants, "Let her in."


Su Rong was brought into the room, showed respect to Princess Sheng An, and used the title she had changed to earlier in the day, "Great Aunt, greetings. I came to question Wang Su, and I thought it would be nice to visit you too."


Princess Sheng An took her hand. "You seem to have lost weight from all your hard work," she complained. "What was His Majesty thinking? Why did he let you bear this burden? Now that Rui'an King is sick, you need to take care of yourself in this cold, snowy weather. Why are you not wearing a bit more?"
