Emperor Zhou was pleasantly amazed that Yan Chu could return to his present appearance and drive his horse. He thought that this time, Yan Chu nominally escorting the Harmony Princess[1], also actually had to ride in a carriage like his eldest daughter all the way.

Zhou Mingzhu and others were similarly startled, but when they saw Yan Chu only ride a distance, his fingers began to tremble slightly, and they knew that the other side must be holding on, merely to avoid losing face in public.

It was purely tenacious self-esteem, but it was useless. It was already extreme to recover to this present level!

Auspicious time almost arrived, Emperor Zhou said some occasional words, and the bridal procession officially set off.

Yan Chu, as the leader of this time, took the lead in the procession. He separated a distance away from the position of the eldest princess' carriage.

It was an extensive road to send the bride. One of them was a princess, and the other was a procession leader. There was scarcely any contact amongst them. What Zhou Mingli liked to do every day was to take advantage of the short time to open the curtain when the palace maid delivered food and water to her and looked at that tall and broad back in the distance.

Most people in the palace thought that she was specially named and let Yan Chu come to send her because she wanted to humiliate him, but nobody knew how much she loved that man.

Zhou Mingli's memory of her childhood was not deep, and it was full of self-righteous people's non-physical abuse, as well as some jeering and shoving, which made those people hard to hurt her as they still dare not.

However, Zhou Mingli, who was still a child, often felt deeply hurt for those people's indifference and irrational disgust. She envied her imperial second sister very much. They were unmistakably Emperor Father's daughters, but because the other side was from the empress, she could appeal to everyone without doing anything. It was not the case that she plainly could decide to be born, or could she control Emperor Father, who took a fancy to her imperial concubine mother and had her.

Why did not everyone go to the main culprit, Emperor Father, but love to come and trouble her?

At that time, Zhou Mingli, a child, did not understand because her Emperor Father was Zhou's emperor, in here, no one dared to disobey and accuse him, which was the charm of power.

At that time, she paid the most attention to Young General Yan, who often appeared in the palace. Among his peers, he was always the tallest and loudest one. For Zhou Mingli, who was always facing her depressed imperial concubine mother, she liked people full of energy and vitality, which would make her feel that the world was still good and beautiful.

At that time, she looked at him from afar. Because she did not know if that boy was the same as other cabinet ministers' children in the palace, who hated her and would help other princes and princess bully her.

Their first close contact was after she got bullied by both Imperial Eldest Brother and Imperial Second Brother.

On that day, she hid in the rockery and cried secretly. She dared not go back to her palace, because once her imperial concubine mother saw her like this, she would only complain more.

Yan Chu found her to pick up a ball that he had thrown away. He did not know that she was a princess because the clothes she was wearing at that time were dirty, nevertheless the most common cloth. He regarded her as a little maid, but looking at her sad appearance, he came forward to comfort her.
