Chapter 2386: Fake Drama
However, reality had taught her a harsh lesson.
At this point, she had nothing left to lose. If she lost anything else, it would really be over!
She could not let Tian Shanshan continue to be willful.
Seeing that she couldn’t convince her mother, Tian Shanshan pursed her lips and fell silent.
Madam Tian, feeling a pang of sympathy, couldn’t help but soften. She comforted her gently, her heart aching at the sight.
Unexpectedly, that evening, Tian Shanshan asked the maidservant to cover for her, claiming she had gone to bed early. She quietly left the house and went straight to Shao Liulang.
Shao Liulang had recently fallen out of favor with both Shao Yunduan and the Fourth Prince, who had lost respect for him. There was no chance of promotion, and it was a small mercy that the Fourth Prince had not caused him further trouble.
Shao Liulang was well aware of his situation and shrank back in apprehension.
Tian Shanshan’s unexpected visit nearly terrified him. He thought she had come to bring him more bad news, and he stammered and trembled in fear.
Tian Shanshan immediately felt disgusted.
Although they were cousins and had grown up close, they were worlds apart. Shao Liulang was timid, lacked presence, and was mediocre in appearance and talent. He wasn’t even fit to carry Lord Shao’s shoes.
Unfortunately, she had no choice but to deal with him now. She hadn’t expected her mother to be so heartless, insisting she enter the palace. What was so great about that place? She would rather die than go, and she couldn’t bear to face her cousin at all.
Tian Shanshan glanced at Shao Liulang with disdain, struggling to suppress her revulsion. She took a deep breath and said expressionlessly…
She was going to marry Shao Liulang, but their union would be a sham. Shao Liulang was not allowed to touch her, and while she wouldn’t care if he took concubines, she demanded that he support and raise any children they had.
She didn’t want Shao Liulang to touch her or bear his child, but if he had children, she would raise them. She would ensure they were not her enemies in the future.
Shao Liulang’s children had to be respectful and filial to her—that was the bare minimum.
To ensure Shao Liulang wouldn’t go back on his word, she demanded that he write a guarantee now and include terms that could serve as evidence. This was her assurance.
With these measures in place, Tian Shanshan wouldn’t have to worry about Shao Liulang’s potential schemes.
At this moment, she remained calm and focused on the future. Who knew if Shao Liulang might make a comeback because of Shao Yunduan? Without something to keep Shao Liulang in check, she would never be able to move forward.
Shao Liulang was stunned by the unexpected turn of events.
He hadn’t anticipated that the princess was not there to settle scores, but rather to offer him an opportunity to rise to prominence.
Although shocked by Tian Shanshan’s harsh demands, Shao Liulang immediately agreed.
Only a fool would refuse!
She was a princess! Marrying her would not only align him with the Tian family but also connect him to the Emperor. Such an alliance was incredibly honorable.
As for the future, he would deal with it later.
He believed that as long as he treated her sincerely, the princess would eventually come to view him favorably. They would still be husband and wife in the end.
