Cordilia wondered where her family's A'Yuan went off to.

"Stop spacing out. We're being called by the Emperor" Xue Jin Ying said, Cordilia nodded as they calmly walked side by side.

"I should do the talking" Cordilia suggested

"Naturally, you are going to be the one taking responsibility" Xue Jin Ying agreed shamelessly

"Ah? Aren't I the one who had been taken advantage of? Aren't these love bites on my neck a proof to that?" Cordilia raised a brow

"Aren't you the one who stripped me. Have some shame and take responsibilities" Xue Jin Ying rebuked.

'I'm doing it for the both of us, okay!? Don't misunderstand! It doesn't mean that you are handsome, I'll kneel down and express my undying love for you, I am not that shallow, okay! (╬ಠ益ಠ)'

Cordilia got annoyed yet she forced her anger down.

Arriving in the hall where dozens of pairs of eyes drilling holes at them with judgement gaze and contempt, as well as joy for having fallen in such disgrace.

Cordilia kept her chin up and porpusely slow down for the sake of the man next to her.

Arriving in front of the Emperor, the two knelt down in greetings and show their respect and greeting.

"Princess General, Prince of Da Xue, do you know your wrongs?" the Emperor asked

"This subject knows, however, this subject did not regret it" Cordilia replied, causing an uproar in the hall

"Shameless woman!"

"She lost her virtue yet she dare speak these bold words"

"Disgraceful"

"This Princess General regrets nothing, Your Majesty. What is there to regret when this Princess General lost her virtue to her lover?" Cordilia was spouting bullshit again.

Another uproar with her words, Cordilia was getting tired of the routine in which consist of:

Cordilia answers and reasoned >> these bystanders gossips >> the Emperor speaks and ask a question >> then repeat.

This routine gets old pretty fast, did you guys know?

"Oh? Is that so?" The Emperor raised a brow as he tried to think of what this Princess General is up to now

"Answering to your Majesty, it is indeed true. This Princess General and Prince of Da Xue has been lovers after our first meeting, indeed, it was love at first sight. Asking the Emperor for his blessings" Cordilia lied smoothly, her story making has been triggered, she was desperate, okay? So don't judge even if this was filled with plot holes that would make the strainer jealous.

"En. Zhen will give blessings. After all, keeping lovers apart will be a sin" The Emperor decided to go along with Cordilia to figure out what is this girl up to.

"Thanking his Majesty for his grace, long live his Majesty the Emperor, may you live for thousands and thousands of years" this was the traditional boot licking... I mean respectful sentence when given a grace from the Emperor

"Your Majesty, this Princess General has a presumptuous request. Hoping your Majesty to hear this subject out" Cordilia was still kowtowing

Everyone has their own guesses but they were not prepared on Cordilia's next words.

"En"

"This subject.... This subject wishes to give up her tittle as Princess General for this subject's lover. Hoping the Enpereor has insight of the gods and understand" Cordilia continues her boot licking and she was not happy at all okay? It taste sour and bitter, but she must endure.

She must get out of Long Empire, and quick.

Another uproar could be heard but Cordilia did not mind, she felt Xue Jin Ying glanced at her but Cordilia kept her gaze on the ground.

"You wish to return to Da Xue with Prince Xue Jin Ying?" the Emperor frowned and felt this is not a good idea

"Begging your Majesty to reconsider and rethink it thrice. This subject has been worried about her lover, Prince of Da Xue has been sick as a child and recently, the Imperial Physician had brought grave news that Prince of Da Xue has only limited time left. Begging the Emperor for his mercy and grace!" Cordilia squeezed out crocodile tears, but in her heart she was throwing rage and tantrum

"Xian Er" Xue Jin Ying felt it is his time to step in, if he remain unfeeling, it will thought suspicion

The Emperor was in a delimma. If he did not let them go, then he will be viewed as a heartless monarch but if he did, he feared rebellion. Its just that when Cordilia squeezed out tears, he cracked.

After all, who could resist a beautiful and prideful woman begging to be free? Specially if that woman is known to possess a heart of stone.

One will really softened up.

"Zhen agrees"

'Not bad, Feng Xian Er' Xue Jin Ying's head was bowed down so no one saw his amused, dark, and interested as well as mocking expression.

'Hook, line, and sinker you, old fossil. Only a beauty and mushy stuff will trigger your Slag Mind to agree and cloud your rationality' Cordilia smirked

A'Yuan stared at the progress bar. Aish, the plot is a mess right now, but then again, isn't Cordilia an expert on that area? She doesn't even stick on her plans at all!
