Everyone in the capital was talking about the fact that Mu Shuling, the proud and unparalleled daughter of the general, rejected the prince only to marry the powerless seventh prince. In order to marry him, she broke with her father and asked the emperor for marriage. She learned that he was half human and half demon, but still insisted on marrying her. On their wedding night, he said: "Shu Ling, I, Chu Yeming, swear that I will never let you down in this life. If you violate this promise, this sword will allow you to take my life at any time."
