Bright, dazzling lightning bolts struck down fiercely, baring their fangs and claws.

As the blinding lightning disappeared and everyone was still stunned, a muffled sound came from between heaven and earth.

It was so profound and so lingering, like the mournful cries of thousands of horses and the surging killing intent of those who died on the battlefield in ancient times.

Tremor.

It came crashing in from afar like a monstrous wave.

The ground beneath our feet was trembling slightly.

This shock resonated deep within everyone's hearts.

Fear erupted uncontrollably from the depths of my heart, like a dormant volcano suddenly spewing forth.

Just now, it was only the women and children who couldn't control their emotions, but now, even many civil officials are collapsing and unable to stand, screaming in alarm.

The military officers all had solemn expressions and tense bodies.

In that instant, they felt as if they had returned to the life-or-death moment of the most dangerous battle of their lives.

Amidst the chaos, only Qi Zhiyu's voice remained calm, even tinged with a hint of mockery: "It seems your ancestors didn't really want me to go and pay my respects to them."

Prince Ning stared at Qi Zhiyu with bloodshot eyes: "What...what exactly did you do?"

"You dare to disturb the imperial tombs of our Northern Yunnan?"

"Qi Zhiyu, this is outrageous!"

Prince Ning's words transformed everyone's fear and apprehension into anger, which they directed at Qi Zhiyu.

That murderous gaze didn't affect Qi Zhiyu in the slightest.

Qi Zhiyu chuckled and said, "When I left the capital of Da Rui, my soldiers had already caught up with me and declared that auspicious omens had descended from the heavens, and that I was a fairy reincarnated."

"I am of noble status."

"If you had known better back then, you should have broken off the engagement and respectfully sent me back."

"But you don't. You insist on continuing the engagement."

"Prince Ning... wants to marry me, wants to bring benefits to your northern Yunnan. I understand your selfish motives, but..."

Qi Zhiyu's lips curled up, her smile brimming with mockery: "Marry me... do you, or even your Northern Yunnan, have such good fortune?"

Prince Ning was so startled that he staggered back two steps and sat down on the ground with a thud.

"Princess," the Crown Prince said, suppressing his fear, "we offer a large sum of money to escort you back to Da Rui."

Given the current situation, who would dare to keep Qi Zhiyu in northern Yunnan?

A grand wedding led to the destruction of the altar and their Northern Yunnan imperial tombs.

If Qi Zhiyu continues to stay in northern Yunnan, who knows what might happen.

He doesn't dare to gamble!

"Now you want me to go back?" Qi Zhiyu looked at the Northern Yunnan Crown Prince with amusement. "Haven't you heard the saying?"

"What?" The Crown Prince asked, then suddenly realized what Qi Zhiyu was talking about.

He looked at Qi Zhiyu with a wry smile: "It's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away."

Qi Zhiyu smiled and said, "The Crown Prince is wise."

The crown prince was suffering.

He really didn't want to know that.

I didn't want to react so quickly.

but……

The Crown Prince looked at the King of Northern Dian: "Father, why not build a princess's mansion so that Princess Chen'an can live comfortably there?"

"Find capable people and serve them well."

What else can we do with this large Buddha statue besides worshipping it?

If their grandfather gets struck by lightning today, who knows if they'll be the next ones to be struck by lightning if they do something else?

The king of Northern Dian took a deep breath; he knew this was the only way.

He was about to speak when Prince Ning interrupted, "Father, Chen'an should have been my princess consort!"

The Crown Prince looked at Prince Ning as if he were a fool.

At this point, what nonsense is he spouting?

Marry Qi Zhiyu?

Is Prince Ning tired of living?

"Once I marry the princess, we will be husband and wife, sharing both honor and disgrace," Prince Ning said with a smug smile.

"Didn't the princess not object to marrying me?"

Prince Ning was asking Qi Zhiyu this question.

Qi Zhiyu nodded: "I didn't object."

"However, marrying me might not be what you think."

"So, I asked you that before I left today."

Prince Ning sneered, "My answer remains the same, I have no regrets."

Qi Zhiyu laughed: "Okay!"

"Wait a minute!" The prince's heart skipped a beat; he had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

"Your Highness, there's no need to try to persuade me," Prince Ning said firmly.

"The princess is willing to marry me, naturally because I am worthy of her."

"If the princess has no objections, then Heaven probably won't either."

Prince Ning is confident now.

He was struck twice, but he didn't die.

In fact, apart from the wrist injury, there was no internal injury whatsoever.

The key point is that the wrist injury will not leave any hidden dangers; at most, it's just a superficial injury that needs to heal.

This shows that he is different.

"Father." The Crown Prince looked at the King of Northern Dian, hoping that his father would persuade Prince Ning.

Is this some kind of ridiculous thing?

Qi Zhiyu is too strange; Prince Ning, please don't mess around with her.

The people of Northern Yunnan all looked at their Emperor, waiting for him to make a decision.

To be honest, what just happened really scared them.

They knew that Princess Chen'an of Da Rui was strange, but they never expected her to be this strange.

Heaven is protecting her.

Could it be that she really is a celestial being reincarnated?

Of course, some ministers were not only worried, but also agitated.

If Prince Ning were to marry the fairy...wouldn't the Northern Yunnan tribes be able to...receive unparalleled benefits?

Qi Zhiyu became a princess in Da Rui, but Da Rui changed drastically.

Look at Prince Rui, who was suppressed before, how glorious he is now?

If Qi Zhiyu becomes the Princess Ning of Northern Yunnan... it will be only a matter of time before Northern Yunnan surpasses Great Rui!

"Father!" Prince Ning called out as well.

He was terrified that his father, the emperor, would object!

He has been hurt several times because of Qi Zhiyu.

How could he be content if he didn't marry Qi Zhiyu?

Will we still have to support Qi Zhiyu in the future?

That would make him feel disgusted to death!

"Princess Chen'an, if you don't object, then you two should get married." The King of Beidian made his decision.

Prince Ning's face lit up with ecstasy, while the Crown Prince looked utterly despairing.

He looked at his father in shock, unable to understand how his usually wise father could make such an absurd decision.

Given these pros and cons, how can one gamble on them?

The odds of losing are too high.

He couldn't see the odds of winning at all.

"For a wedding, the traditional rituals of bowing to heaven and earth and to one's parents are clearly no longer appropriate," the King of Northern Dian asked Qi Zhiyu. "Then how shall it proceed?"

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly: "Let's be husband and wife."

The King of Northern Dian understood: "Very well, husband and wife shall bow to each other."

He glanced at Prince Ning.

Prince Ning immediately pushed aside the attendant who was supporting him and walked to the opposite side of Qi Zhiyu.

His face flushed with excitement: "Princess, if I bow now, will we be husband and wife?"

"Of course," Qi Zhiyu smiled, her beauty breathtaking.

Prince Ning was captivated by the laughter.

The crown prince clenched his fists, a growing sense of foreboding in his heart: "Father, this matter must be handled with utmost care!"
