Xiao Zhen left, and the Emperor seemed to lose his good mood as well.
He sat down, calmed his anger for a while, and asked Ling Hua, "Tell me, how did you get Yan Qing to agree to marry you?"
Ling Hua dared not hide anything, "I used a self-harm ploy on the young Marquis. Although his temperament is erratic, he has a kind heart. Knowing that if he didn't marry me, no one else would dare to, he realized it would ruin my marriage prospects. Leaving me after damaging my reputation wouldn't be a decent thing to do, so he had no choice but to accept me. However, there was one condition, I would have to sign a contract with him stating that no matter what he does in the future, I couldn't interfere."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor's mood improved slightly, "No wonder he obediently accepted the imperial decree. I haven't seen him for two years, I grant him a marriage and he doesn't even come to thank me. No matter what method you use, you must bring him to see me."
