God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Liu Xiu hadn't considered whether Arvind could meet those conditions, so he didn't explain the complete process. Instead, he mentioned some things needed after simplifying the process, which weren't very difficult.

However, for Arvind, these things that were said were trivial matters; what he truly needed to accomplish were the things that were not said.

Arvind didn't think there was anything wrong with the incomplete information.

The reason is simple: Liu Xiu himself had never experienced such a thing, and what he needed was just some general reference.

Arvind was perfectly clear about what he really needed, especially after experiencing the situation in Tinoica; he knew it better than anyone else.

Compared to what a princess needs to prepare, what a princess, or rather a senior princess, needs to prepare is completely different.

The eldest princess was on par with princes and dukes, and could even be said to be on par with them in every way. She was not only not inferior to them, but was even superior to them.

Given this social hierarchy, especially considering that an extra level of marriage etiquette is required, what level of marriage would that be?

Even Arvind, a man, felt the difficulty of this kind of marriage.

But if he were to give up, that would be an outcome he couldn't bear.

The other party had already extended an olive branch and offered the possibility of agreement, but because I couldn't do it, I rejected that possibility.

If I told anyone else about this, I'd probably get beaten to death.

As he escorted Liu Xiu into the tunnel and slowly made his way toward the princess's residence, Awende began to ponder how to complete all the rituals that were lacking.

After watching Liu Xiu leave the tunnel, Arvind began to retrace his steps, still pondering the same problem, but unable to come up with a solution.

"A wedding of imperial caliber seems to be a bit troublesome..." Arvind scratched his head, genuinely unable to come up with a solution for the moment.

He could only think about this problem while walking home. He became so engrossed in it that he was involved in several collisions on the way. Fortunately, thanks to his strong physique due to his internal energy leaving his body, he was completely unharmed.

"So, do you think this marriage needs to reach the level of an emperor?" Looking at Arvind's questioning face, Mahind suppressed his inner shock and asked in as calm a tone as possible.

Fortunately, I am old enough and have enough social experience, plus I had some expectation of this kind of thing, so I was able to barely suppress the shock in my heart.

Despite all the thorough preparation and even a degree of foresight, the fact that the event still shocked everyone after it happened speaks volumes about how outrageous it was.

She was the eldest princess of the Han Empire. During his time in the Han Empire, Ma Xinde was not ignorant of her; rather, he gained a clearer understanding of her.

In some ways, the eldest princess of the Han Empire was a more terrifying figure than Vasudeva I. At least Vasudeva I still did not control the majority of the power in the country, and this alone clearly demonstrates the difference in their strength…

Of course, even if it wasn't that princess, the shock was still considerable.

“Isn’t that so?” Arvind looked at Mahind with surprise and said seriously, “The Han Empire’s eldest princess is on par with a prince, and even has the right and opportunity to become an empress. In addition, marriage within the Han Empire is inherently a combination of power and prestige. No matter how you look at it, this is the only level of marriage that can be achieved…”

“That makes a lot of sense, but it’s just a sense of sense. Adding a layer of etiquette is indeed a sign of respect, but there’s a limit to how much you can add. No matter how much you respect a subject or a princess, you can’t ignore that person…” After listening to the explanation for a while, Mahinda calmed down, shook his head slightly, and began to explain the rules, or rather, the special circumstances, to Arvind.

The emperor's reign lasted one year, while that of the feudal lords lasted half a year. Many people could be promoted to the rank of feudal lord and adopt the feudal lords' half-year ritual system, but how many dared to adopt the emperor's one-year system?
"I don't think so..." Although he didn't know much about the history of the Han Empire, Arvind gave an answer without much thought, which was also close to the truth.

"No, at least not openly." Mahind nodded slightly, directly confirming the matter.

Whether it was scholar-officials or feudal lords, if they were willing to adopt this policy for half a year, whether it was to elevate their own status or because they were truly in that class, and if they had enough power, no one would really say anything.

However, if the emperor's one-year system were adopted, unless one truly considered oneself the emperor, the arrival of the emperor's six armies would reveal the troublesome consequences of doing such a thing.

“In that case, we can only adopt the half-year system for feudal lords…” The difficulty has been reduced considerably, and the task that Arvind needs to complete has also been reduced. However, when he said this, he still felt a little regretful.

It is indeed a disappointment and a regret if you cannot provide the best for the other person.

However, before he could finish his reflection, Arvind was struck on the head by Mahind.

After being struck, Mahinda looked at Mahinda with a puzzled and confused expression, completely unaware of the reason.

“You are only a colonel in the Han Empire now. Where did you get the title of a vassal for half a year? No matter how much you are promoted, a colonel can never be promoted to the level of a vassal for half a year…” Ma Xinde directly stated the crueler reality.

Princes?

Could Awende be considered a feudal lord in the Han Empire?

It's definitely impossible. Given that her status and rank haven't reached that level, and with no other options or efforts, she can only rely on the princess's own abilities to accomplish all of this.

By then, even Mahinda didn't know how to evaluate that behavior; whether it was good or bad, perhaps only a true Yuezhi person could tell.

"Not even six months?" Arvind blinked quickly, then stared intently at Mahinda, waiting for Mahinda's plan.

At this point, Arvind finally realized what was going on. He didn't know what to do next or how to get through this process, but he had some smart people around him.

Not only is he intelligent, but he also has ample social experience and is extremely capable. Following the other party's arrangements, as before, will certainly not be a problem. (End of Chapter)
