Qiu Zedong sipped the tea and then, he put the teacup on the table before him. Li Zixuan and Li Jianjun had also sipped the tea after the King.
"Minister Li, I am glad that you readily accepted the marriage proposal for your son with my daughter," Qiu Zedong said and looked at Eunuch Gao Bing. "Where is the Queen?" he asked.
"I am here, Your Majesty," Zhu Liling said and bowed her head to him. Both Li Zixuan and his son stood up to greet the Queen. She walked up to the King and sat beside her.
"Let's talk about the matter for which we have gathered together," the King asserted. "My Queen, I have decided to make our daughter marry within the next week. I do not think that we should wait the whole month," Qiu Zedong told his decision. "What does the Queen say?" he tilted his head to gaze at her.
"I agree with His Majesty's decision," Zhu Liling said, keeping a tiny smile on her lips.
