Mrs. Xiang was astounded, having not expected such a reason behind the scenes. She said, "Truly unexpected. When I first heard of this news, I thought the marriage was rather peculiar. With your temperament, how could you plan to form a marriage alliance with the Guangping Prince's Mansion? I never imagined oh, that the Princess Guangping would allow her daughter to act so recklessly. Isn't she afraid..."
At this point, she remembered the Empress behind the Princess Guangping and was at a loss for words in front of the Crown Princess.
Su Xinyi couldn't openly criticize the Empress and Princess Guangping's actions, feigning ignorance, she continued, "Marriage is about mutual consent. For Madam to endure such an indignity, having such intentions isn't surprising at all."
