"Miss Su Ying, receive the decree." The eunuch, pinching his throaty voice, held a roll of bright yellow silk and bowed towards Duke Ying.
Su Ying's whole body nearly fainted, her lips trembling, shaking her head in disbelief, she pleaded to the announcing eunuch, "Eunuch, could there be a mistake? Why would His Majesty grant me a marriage?"
Su Ying's demeanor was quite rude. The eunuch, who had just been smiling while congratulating Su Shi, frowned and looked at Su Ying, his sharp voice ringing in everyone's ears, "It is said that Miss Su is of virtuous nature and outstanding in rituals and literature..."
Seeing that things were not going well, Su Shi quickly pulled out several silver notes from his sleeve and stuffed them into the eunuch's embrace, "Please forgive my daughter's rudeness, Eunuch."
The eunuch discreetly pinched the thickness of the silver notes, and his previously gloomy expression immediately brightened.
