Nan Feng bowed before answering, "That day, I traversed a thousand miles to find my husband. Later, I accidentally fell off a cliff and was saved by the second prince of Dashun. He fell in love with me and wanted me to be his empress, but I was unwilling. However, he was persistent."

The Emperor seemed thoughtful.
He thought that if he fancied a woman, she must be an outstanding one, and it wasn't surprising that the second prince of Dashun would fancy her too.
He then asked the ministers, "What are your wise opinions on this matter?"
