Before Prince Pu could speak, the steward exploded furiously: "What do you mean Miss Zhang doesn't want to? As the saying goes, 'Parental authority and matchmaker's arrangements.' As long as you, her father, nod your head, how dare she refuse? I think you're looking down on Prince Pu's Mansion, deliberately making excuses."
Wealthy Master Zhang became anxious upon hearing this; they absolutely couldn't afford to offend Prince Pu's Mansion. Thus, he hurriedly explained to Prince Pu: "Prince, this humble servant has no such intention."
"Then what do you mean?"
"My daughter's marriage should be her own decision. If she agrees, then it's fine." As the saying goes, better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Becoming a concubine may sound dignified as half a master, but in reality, it's no better than being a maid.
Wealthy Master Zhang, loving his daughter dearly, didn't want her to suffer such hardships for the rest of her life.
