The next day, the eunuch goes to each respected mansion to bring the news from the king. He is bringing some gift from the majesty for this proposal. As expected, it's come from the Palace and royal family, their proposal comes as grand as their household brand.
The Eunuch from the King Palace leads the proposal to the Ni family Mansion. The head butler of Lord Ni mansion is announcing the arrival of Eunuch Song and the procession to hand in the royal edict from the king. The Butler escorted Eunuch Song to the family main hall to announce the edict.
The whole Ni family rushed to the main hall of Ni Mansion to welcome Eunuch Song. He is the second-in-charge of the King Palace household. They can not take his reputation as the person closer to the Emperor of Dayu Kingdom. They did not know about the visit of Eunuch Song today. However, He has the royal decree on his hand so they are ready to kneel down to accept the royal decree from the royal majesty the emperor.
"Please get ready for receiving the decree from the majesty of Emperor Jin. The Crown prince of Dayu country who is already come to the marriage ages. He is virtuous and noble as the descendant of the dragon. The Majesty of the emperor is bestowing the marriage of the Crown prince to the Lord of Ni firstborn daughter. the wedding will be held on an auspicious date," Eunuch Song is reading loud the decrees from the emperor.
"First young miss of the Lord Ni, are you accepting this marriage arrangement by his majesty the emperor?" Eunuch Song still asking about the proposal to Ni Lang for her responses.
"I am really grateful to be chosen as the crown prince consort. I am accepting the bestowed marriage by the majesty emperor," Ni Lang is blushing to answer the verdict.
Eunuch Song is handing down the decree and Ni Lang is accepting the decree with her two hands. Ni Qing is not present and replaces by her cousin Ni Shi. After the death of her mother, Ni Qing is seldom staying in the barrack with her uncle and her brother. She learns about war strategy since she was a kid and follows her teacher around. Her teacher is Li Tzu, the best war strategist under his majesty the emperor.
Everyone in Ni Mansion is congratulating Ni Lang for her good luck fate. The emperor never mentioned the marriage proposal with Master Ni in the Palace. It was like his family struck by lucky fortune to get chosen as the in-law to the crown princes.

In the Empress Palace, Chu Yang is throwing tantrum at her loyal servant. She smashed her cup of tea and smashed the nearby vase from the previous dynasty. She cannot accept that her cousin chooses as the concubine and not the consort. It means that their family clan got humiliated and her cousin needs to work as diligent as she was to achieve the position of the empress.
"Summon my father and my dear cousin to my palace now. I need to speak with them," Empress Chu is telling her loyal servant. She can believe her own husband still did not want her family to continue holding the position as the ruler in this palace.
Her royal Maid is running out to the eunuch and relay the message for her Empress message. The Eunuch ran off from the empress palace and get everything ready to summon her royal highness father and her cousin. The eunuch knows his empress tantrum if he did not pick them up quick enough, she will give a heavy punishment for him.
The Empress tantrum and emotion is famous within the thick wall of the Palace. She always do everything she wishes and the emperor always closing his eyes for all the problem from the Empress. No one dares to stop her with all her mischievous deed.

Jin Yu is smiling all the time during his working time. In his palace, he sat and work diligently to solve all the work burden from his royal father. It has been a long time for them the meet up after their childhood meets up. He still cannot move on from the sweet and devour cakes from her. He will remember the taste on his brain. He also cannot forget her comfortable pat on his body. He always remembers her encouragement sentence to be strong and depend on himself, because no one in this world can help him un
He hears about the acceptance from the daughter of the Ni family for his proposal and they will be preparing the royal procession for the royal wedding. He hopes that they will live happily ever after inside this stuffy Palace. Her bright character can make the bland day inside the palace become more colourful.
However, he has to deal with the Chu family daughter as his concubine. He is hoping with this harem politic will not create another victim like his royal mother. No one knows the main culprit behind his royal mother death and her death was deemed as sickness. His Royal father was really upset but he did not do anything to avenge his wife death. Rather than he buried himself to the sadness and grievance, He did make another consort to become Empress and buried himself with many government affairs.
"Your highness Crown Prince, are you sick?" Eunuch Wang is asking his boss for his uncommon facial emotion and behaviour today.
"I am fine… why are your busy body with my business?"
"But… I never saw you smile and in trance during your government duty… do you need something?" Eunuch Wang worries himself about his boss condition. He has appointed as his eunuch since he was the same ages under the supervision of Eunuch Song. He has been serving him every day and twenty-four hours a day. Eunuch Wang knows his boss behaviour and all his like and dislike.
"I do not think you understand my feeling as a man," Jin Yu is smiling after giving out the sentence to his loyal eunuch.
