Chapter 46 Disastrous News

• The royal meeting chamber fell into an awkward silence after both princes heard the news from their father. Seeing that his sons didn't comment, Heng decided to continue.
• "Why so silent, sons?" he cleared his throat. "Of course, the commitment can't be with any eligible maiden; it must be with ladies of class and power, belonging to other neighboring cities, because it's clear that after this war, we must have alliances more than ever. So, that's another matter I leave in your hands, sons."
• Yun's ears still echoed the last thing his father had said a few seconds ago. He said it so confidently and casually, as if counting money or giving a simple order like "take a seat". His mind was spinning, but he tried to keep his composure after widening his eyes in surprise.
