The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

A hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the King of Northern Dian.

The Crown Prince is always cautious and meticulous; he would not speak without reason.

Prince Ning snorted, "Your Highness, what's wrong? Are you that unhappy about my marriage?"

"Do you still think my queen's status is too high, and you don't want me to marry her?"

Prince Ning specifically emphasized the words "of noble status".

If he were to marry Qi Zhiyu, what changes would it bring to Northern Yunnan? Doesn't the Crown Prince know this?

Could it be that the Crown Prince is determined to ruin this great opportunity in Northern Yunnan because of jealousy?

The Crown Prince could clearly see the condemnation in Prince Ning's eyes.

That is why he was so surprised.

Why would Prince Ning think of him like that?

Prince Ning was much older than him, but he always treated Prince Ning like a son.

Would he be jealous of Prince Ning?

What an ungrateful wretch!

The Crown Prince angrily turned his face to the side. Since Prince Ning was so ungrateful, why should he bother with this?

If even the Emperor doesn't object, why should he, a mere Crown Prince, worry about it?

Seeing that the crown prince no longer objected, the king of Northern Dian smiled and said, "Since there are no problems, let's continue."

The prince frowned, his inner turmoil churning like molten lava about to erupt.

If it weren't for his strong self-control, he really wouldn't have been able to suppress it.

He really wanted to ask his father what was wrong with him today.

Even if the Emperor usually indulged Prince Ning, he would never do something like this.

This wedding looks extremely risky... How did Father become so radical?

The crown prince couldn't understand it, and he felt restless and agitated.

He didn't dare to speak at all, afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would say something disrespectful.

Prince Ning looked at Qi Zhiyu: "Princess, we can continue now."

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly and said, "I'm not calling my marriage a marriage; a more accurate term is 'forming a contract.'"

Prince Ning paused for a moment, then laughed: "It's just a different way of saying it. Marriage between husband and wife is no different from a contractual agreement."

"No, there are still differences," Qi Zhiyu patiently explained to Prince Ning.

"For married couples, they can divorce or abandon each other."

"However, the bond is different."

"With heaven and earth as our witness, and our souls as our guide, this vow is made, and we will never go back on our word!"

"If you go back on your word, your three souls will be scattered across the heavens and earth, your seven spirits will be buried in the underworld, you will suffer all the punishments of hell, and you will never be reincarnated again."

As Qi Zhiyu spoke, the expressions around her grew increasingly grim.

Is this a wedding?

This feels like they're aiming to kill me!

After Qi Zhiyu finished speaking, she looked at the pale-faced Prince Ning and asked, "Are you sure you want to form a pact with me?"

"This isn't a wedding; it's a contract, a pledge."

The King of Northern Dian frowned deeply: "Princess, a marriage is a marriage, but isn't this a bit too elaborate?"

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly and said, "You can choose whether or not."

"Since that's the case..."

"Father!" Prince Ning interrupted the King of Beidian, staring intently at Qi Zhiyu, and asked, "Princess, is there any specific explanation for this contract?"

"Of course," Qi Zhiyu said with a smile. "A contract is an oath that cannot be broken."

"It's about supporting each other and helping each other succeed."

"Is there someone in charge here?" Prince Ning quickly asked the question that concerned him.

"Of course," Qi Zhiyu said with a smile. "As for who will take the lead, that depends on their respective abilities."

"Whoever is more capable will be in charge."

"There shouldn't be any objections to that, right?"

Qi Zhiyu looked at Prince Ning: "Even in an ordinary marriage, one person takes the lead while the other assists, right?"

"It mainly depends on the level of ability."

"Of course, no problem," Prince Ning said without hesitation.

The Crown Prince was shocked: "Prince Ning, please reconsider!"

Who is in charge? How does Prince Ning feel that there is no problem with this?

"Your Highness, does this mean you don't think highly of me?" Prince Ning stared at the Crown Prince with a sinister look.

The crown prince was so surprised that his mouth gaped slightly.

Has Prince Ning gone mad?

"Father." The crown prince turned to look at his father.

As the elder brother, there are some things he can't say, but the words of their father... Prince Ning will always listen to some of them.

Before the King of Northern Dian could speak, Prince Ning asked quietly, "Father, do you think I have a problem?"

Can't he become the leader?

The crown prince was furious.

Where does Prince Ning get the audacity to think he can be in charge?

The king of Northern Dian felt a mix of emotions as he was being stared at by his most beloved youngest son.

The words of dissuasion that were on the tip of his tongue simply couldn't be uttered by the King of Northern Dian.

His youngest son was spoiled by him from a young age and is proud.

Not to brag, but his youngest son was intelligent from a young age, and with his strong support in nurturing him, his abilities were, to be honest, exceptionally outstanding.

It can be said that his youngest son was a prodigy who had a smooth and successful life.

Now you want him to publicly admit that his youngest son is inferior to a woman?

How could he say that?

How could you say that?

"If you like it, then let's form a bond." Upon hearing these words from the King of Northern Dian, the Prince of Ning smiled, but the Crown Prince felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

He took a sudden step forward: "Father!"

The king of the Northern Dian Kingdom glanced over.

The moment the Crown Prince met his father's gaze, it was as if a bucket of ice-cold water had been poured over his head, instantly sobering him up.

The crown prince composed himself and retreated.

Prince Ning glanced smugly at the Crown Prince, then raised his chin at Qi Zhiyu: "Princess, please."

Qi Zhiyu smiled and said, "Okay!"

Qi Zhiyu cupped his hands in the direction of the heavens and said, "Today I form a pact with someone."

"I invite all the heavens to witness this!"

The King of Northern Dian and the Prince of Ning, among others, did not see anything wrong, but the Crown Prince felt a chill run down his spine.

Looking at Qi Zhiyu, who stood proudly between heaven and earth, a strange thought popped into his mind.

The heavens?

Generally speaking, "heavens" refers to all the gods.

Another interpretation is that the heavens are the celestial realm.

Isn't there only one Heavenly Realm?

So, who is "together" that Qi Zhiyu mentioned?

Speaking of gods... he just felt something was off.

He had a vague feeling that even if gods came before Qi Zhiyu, she would not take them seriously at all.

So... what exactly happened?

A muffled boom resounded, sending shivers down everyone's spines.

This time, regardless of whether they were civil or military officials, even the king of the Northern Dian Kingdom couldn't help but feel his legs go weak and he knelt down on the ground.

If they could see it, they would be shocked to discover that they were not the only ones kneeling.

People from other countries also knelt down involuntarily.

This ancient pressure is beyond human resistance.

This kind of awe-inspiring power from the very soul makes it impossible to even entertain the slightest thought of resistance, let alone resist.

In the face of past floods and earthquakes, the power of nature that people feared was truly insignificant.
