Xiziqing

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

As for the matter of the Crown Prince marrying Duanhua, Yan Huisheng didn't elaborate much in his letter, which intrigued Su Rong.


After folding the letter, she recalled what Zhou Gu had said earlier and glared at him, "Duanhua is quite good. Why can't she be the Crown Prince's consort? If the Crown Prince is marrying her, there must be a reason, maybe he truly thinks she's suitable."


Zhou Gu glanced at her and didn't argue, "Fine, either way it's not our affair."


Smiling in exasperation, Su Rong heard his tone and thought that Duanhua had greatly offended him.


She put down the letter and after pondering, said, "I haven't written to Duanhua in a long time. I'm sure she's angry with me now."


"What's there to write? You need rest." Zhou Gu dragged her away, "Hurry up and have dinner. After dinner, go rest."
