Chapter 4 — Three Thousand Miles of Harmony

Trinh Liem Thanh opened his lips, still wanting to say something. A sudden slap fell, knocking her weak body to the ground. “Where does that filth come from? Shut up, princess!” Trinh Liem Thanh was about to get angry, but when he faced the eyes of the person coming, he immediately fell silent in fear. Tham Duong glared at her, his eyes bloodshot. "Van Thu traveled three thousand miles, not knowing when she would return. She had to leave her old country, leave everything she was familiar with. What she did was for a great cause!" “What right do you have to equate her with your narrow calculations?” Tham Duong likes to ride horses and shoot archery, so like me, his reputation outside is not good. Trinh Liem Thanh was very afraid of her. "Third princess, I... I didn't mean that..." Tham Duong grabbed her hand, not letting her back down. "Oh, I see. You also want to fulfill a great cause. Unfortunately, with this body, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to the land of Yen at all." Having finished speaking, she let go of Trinh Liem Thanh's wrist, letting her struggle to fall to the ground. I lowered my headscarf and stopped looking at her. Trinh Liem Thanh gritted his teeth and trembled for a long time. As if touched by pain, she kept muttering: "No, no! I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong!" “Van Van Thu, your parents are still by your side, how can you understand my suffering…” “If you depend on living, you always have to worry about winning or losing.” “I just want to earn a good future for myself, what's wrong with me?” I turned my head and smiled faintly. I took out a piece of horsewhip from my sleeve and threw it at her like a knife stabbing straight into the heart. “The future is so heavy, one must have one's life to bear it.” Trinh Liem Thanh's face immediately turned pale. Tham Duong gave her a broad future. "Okay. Van Thu is gone, the princess is missing a pupil." "We still have a lot of time later, slowly endure it." On Trinh Liem Thanh's beautiful face, fear rarely appears. The early spring breeze passes by. The carriage is about to depart. Tham Duong quickly regained consciousness, ran a few steps and then held my hand. “Do you really not wait for the Second Emperor anymore?” "After hearing that she had to go to get married, he rode five horses back to the capital, knelt in front of Phung Thien palace for a day and a night, and begged his father to revoke the edict." “He's probably on his way here right now.” 10 I blinked away the water in front of my eyes and said softly: "No need." “After I leave, he and Trinh Liem Thanh will have gray teeth.” All the words that needed to be said were said, but Tham Duong still ran after the carriage and kept calling. “Wait, wait!” I burst out laughing. “Is there anything else going on, your third highness?” Tham Duong looked at me, as if he wanted to use all his strength to remember the last meeting in this life. Tears welled up, her voice choked. “Tieu Thu, I can't bear to leave you.” I think she's so obnoxious. It must make me cry all my makeup off before I leave to be satisfied. Luckily, His Majesty was merciful and allowed me to come to Yen with me. When she arrived at Bat Tu Son, she said: "Princess, please turn around and look back in the direction of your hometown one more time." “If you pass this mountain, you will never see it again.” I turned my head. Watching the land in sight slowly shrink into a fist, then into a grain of sand. The mountains are towering and the rivers are long and vast. When we reached Dai Yen, it was spring of the following year. The people of Yen are strong, the one who is close to us is the Crown Prince of Yen, An Hoan. I sat in the room, listening outside as one group after another forced him to drink alcohol. When my neck ached and I could barely support it anymore, the door to the room slowly opened. The man walked steadily closer to me. When the headscarf was lifted, a pair of deep, beautiful eyes appeared before my eyes. Unexpectedly, it was a teenager's face. “Oh, I've seen her before.” Seeing me stunned, An Hoan pointed at himself, his voice carrying the characteristic discretion of Yen people. “Have you forgotten me?” “In the soccer match two years ago, I lost to you.” “Father scolded me with a dark face, saying I was not even as good as a woman.” I searched for a long time in my memory, then woke up, immediately

kneel down. "At that time, I did not understand things at a young age. Please forgive me, Your Highness." An Hoan held my hand. “Okay, no need to perform those cumbersome rituals.” “Marrying here already puts her at a disadvantage.” He's a little different from what we imagined. In the official letter, it was written that although the Crown Prince of Yen was friendly and loved the people, his governance was extremely strict and clear. The person in front of me doesn't seem to match the description. At this time, An Hoan was gingerly hugging the blanket and mattress, spreading it straight on the ground. I couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing, Your Highness?" An Hoan said: "We just met for the second time, sleeping together was so sudden." He turned his back to me, revealing the top of his black head. "Besides, I like sleeping on the ground. I'm telling the truth." 11 I feel he is lying. The next day, An Hoan had a sore back and struggled to get up. I stood by the window and heard a servant ask: "Your Highness, she is just a princess, why do you have to treat her so well?"
