Chapter 1 — On the big wedding day, he went to celebrate his birthday and refused to come back, so I immediately broke off the engagement

The auspicious hour has passed half an hour. Throughout the hall, the guests were whispering in each other's ears, and my groom, Crown Prince of Tran Quoc Cong Tham Ky Tu, was nowhere to be seen. Mrs. Quoc Cong sat dignifiedly on a high chair. Although her face was clearly showing impatience, she still tried to maintain the demeanor of her husband's mother, softly comforting me:

"Your Highness, don't be in a hurry. Just now, Ky Tu sent someone to send a message, saying that a military emergency had occurred at the camp outside the city, and his superiors immediately summoned him back."

"As men, of course we must take national affairs first."

“The Princess is the daughter of the First Princess, so she will surely understand her dilemma.”

Throughout the hall, the guests continuously nodded in agreement, constantly praising the Crown Prince for putting national affairs first. Understand? I sat in the middle of the wedding hall, behind a red scarf covering my face, softly letting out a cold laugh. A heavy noise rang out, my close secret guard kicked the door of the funeral hall open, then violently threw a box of food down right in front of Mrs. Quoc Cong's feet. The box was overturned, and from inside rolled out half a bowl of longevity noodles, still steaming hot, and a pure white jade brooch. I pulled down the red scarf, completely ignoring the frightened eyes of everyone in the lobby, slowly speaking each word, my voice as cold as ice:

"Military emergency? Urgent call from superiors?"

"Lady of the Nation, the Crown Prince's residence is right now in the west of the city, immersed in a gentle place, celebrating the birthday of the Liu family that he has raised for three years!"

“And this bowl of longevity noodles, he personally rolled each strand!”

Mrs. Quoc Cong's face instantly turned pale, without any color left, and the entire hall filled with royal relatives immediately became shocked.

"Even on the day of the big wedding, you dare to use lies to deceive me. Tran Quoc Cong Palace is really bold!"

I coldly looked at the frightened crowd in front of me, not bothering to say another unnecessary word.

“This marriage, cancel!”

“The soldiers listen to orders!”

“Smash this road for me!”

“Consider this Princess giving a birthday gift to that old lady!”

"One hundred and twenty-eight boxes of dowry, not even one box must be left behind, all will be transferred to the Princess Palace!"

As soon as my words fell, the soldiers of the Princess's palace immediately responded in unison, with the spirit of a tiger and wolf marching out. The sound of the blades leaving their sheaths rang out, and cold rays of light flashed coldly. More than ten soldiers wearing armor were like the autumn wind sweeping away the yellow leaves, rushing straight into the wedding hall. The red silk hanging high was cut off by a knife, pieces of dazzling red fabric fell like snow. The purple-wood wedding table filled with fruits and cakes was also overturned by a kick. The mountains of seafood and delicious jade food were scattered all over the ground, mixed with half a bowl of cold longevity noodles, becoming extremely messy and dirty.

"Stop! Do you want to rebel?"

Lady Quoc Cong suddenly stood up from her Grand Master's chair, the pearls in her hair swayed as if about to fall. She widened her eyes, looked at me with disbelief, her trembling finger pointed straight at me.

"Princess Minh Hoa! Are you okay?" How dare you act so arrogantly in my Tran Quoc Cong palace!”

“This is a marriage decreed by His Majesty himself, how can you say it's canceled!”

I looked down at her from above, my eyes were as cold as looking at a dying ant.

“Precisely because this is a marriage decreed by His Majesty, you all deserve to die even more.”

"Dare to rebel and humiliate this Princess, do you really think that Tran Quoc Cong Palace can cover the sky with one hand and do whatever you want?"

“Smash! Smash it for me!”

“Bang—— Bang!”

The jade vase with green enamel patterns worth several city blocks was mercilessly smashed into the pillar by the government soldiers, shattering into countless pieces. The pair of happy dragons and phoenixes symbolizing a hundred years of happiness were also cut off at the root, rolled to the ground, and the fire immediately went out. Throughout the hall, all the guests retreated in panic, no one dared to step up to advise even a word. Because this is Princess Truong's daughter, the granddaughter who is greatly favored by the current emperor.
