The palace intrigue is intense.
"One of my good friends, who is also a princess, is two years older than me. She was betrothed to a prince by her family long ago."
I feel so confused; so many princes and princesses!
"My friend's family is more open-minded. Her photos have been exposed on the Internet before, and she was praised as the most beautiful Arabic princess. We always thought that a gentle and generous person like her would have a good ending."
"However, unexpectedly, as soon as she got married, she was put under house arrest. She's not allowed to go shopping freely, and she needs permission from her husband and legal wife to leave the palace – I assume you know that in our culture, a man can marry four wives."
That's indeed miserable.
"Then every time she goes out, she has to wrap herself tightly, only showing her eyes. Her husband's kindness to her before marriage was just a façade; less than two months after they got married, he hardly saw her anymore."
