Usually, to show respect for a princess sent in marriage, the host nation would disclose the approximate timeline to put people’s minds at ease. But in her previous life, Emperor Zhou had not done this; he had even demanded more gold and silver from Anguo during the signing of the non-aggression pact, claiming that the initial amount was insufficient. It was this repeated reneging on his word that eventually led to the pact falling into the hands of Prince Jing, Zhou Wei, for the final signing. It was also what made the reborn Zhou Wei so unbearably arrogant.
"The date for the signing of the pact between Dashang and Anguo is set for one month from now. Dashang will send envoys then, and you will be able to see your family," Emperor Zhou said in a calm, uncharacteristically pleasant tone.
Yao Yingying nodded, appearing indifferent. "Many thanks, Your Majesty."
