A Helpless Young Girl
"Very well, summon Princess May Chu." Emperor Jin Xuan spoke weakly.
Princess Mira, who was sitting on the ground, widened her eyes at the news, glaring at Su Li as if she were poisoned.
Not only had Su Li caught her in the act in front of everyone, but she had also stripped her of her status as the diplomatic bride, leaving her utterly disgraced and with nothing!
Soon enough, Princess May Chu was brought in.
Princess May Chu had originally come with the bridal escort team to see her sister off, but now she was summoned and told she would be taking Princess Mira's place as the diplomatic bride.
Princess May Chu handled herself with poise, addressing Emperor Jin Xuan: "Your Majesty, I am honored to contribute to the peace between our two nations. I am willing to take my sister's place and become the diplomatic bride to marry Prince Ling."
Charles Chu looked at Princess May Chu, so obedient and composed, and breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness for his foresight in bringing an extra princess—otherwise, there would have been no way to resolve this mess today.
Since the diplomatic bride was being swapped at the last minute, at the very least, the new bride needed to look the part.
Princess Mira's wedding gown was stripped off her and put onto Princess May Chu.
Princess Mira, eyes bloodshot, was gagged and tightly bound before being carried out. What awaited her was Emperor Jin Xuan's wrath and the scorn of the Kingdom of Chu.
