But this Cheng Zhihai clearly expects me to attend Cheng Guang's wedding in my capacity as the Emperor.
The accompanying gift cannot be merely perfunctory.
Even a token gesture won't suffice.
It has to be a grand gesture at the very least.
This is bad.
Emperor Zhou fell silent, watching the stiff expression on Cheng Zhihai's face break into a bright smile, feeling rather headache.
He had intended to get away with something cursory, but now it seemed that was no longer possible.
Those who can have the Emperor attend their wedding, under the heavens, are none other than princes and princesses.
If Cheng Zhihai hadn't mentioned it, Emperor Zhou might have sent some gifts as a simple gesture, but he would definitely not have attended in person.
But now, not only does he have to personally attend Cheng Guang's wedding, but he also has to bring along a generous gift.
Emperor Zhou now felt that his private treasury was about to suffer significantly.
