After meeting her once, he clicked his tongue and said, "The ospreys cry 'guan guan' on the river's islet. A fair maiden is a gentleman's ideal." When she arrived at his door with her maid and marriage certificate, he leaned against the window, a broad smile on his face: "So eager for me to marry you, huh!" Upon learning that she had come to annul the engagement, his smile froze, his face turned completely black, and his gloomy eyes became bloodshot, as if dripping with blood.

As long as you withdraw your troops!" She rode on horseback, sneering at the emperor who was hiding behind the dragon throne: "Your Majesty, I advise you to be more sensible! It's time to abdicate!"
