Chapter 506 : (Extra) The Dethroned Crown Prince (6)
It took a whole month before Jiang Rufeng heard from Xie Jianshen again. When he did, what he received was a list of demands he had to agree upon before Xie Jianshen would even consider answering the Shuiran Palace Master’s marriage proposal.
Jiang Rufeng tackled each point with swift efficiency, a direct approach that mirrored Xie Jianshen’s own preferences.
With the main requirements summarized into bullet points, the response Xie Jianshen received within a day sounded as followed:
- Xie Jianshen did not have to conduct any marital duties at all, not excluding the first night of the wedding.
- Xie Jianshen will be under no pressure to produce a heir for Shuiran Palace. It remains solely Jiang Rufeng’s burden to carry.
- Jiang Rufeng is not allowed to pick a concubine or lover.
- Jiang Rufeng is not allowed to engage in extramarital affairs.
- Jiang Rufeng agrees to provide Xie Jianshen with anything he desires to ensure that the new palace mistress can adapt into his new living environment.
Another month went by before Jiang Rufeng was summoned into the Golden Dragon Palace to meet with Xie Jianshen.
When he arrived, Xie Jianshen was in the middle of painting a majestic phoenix soaring across the fiery sky close to dusk.
The first thing Xie Jianshen said upon seeing Jiang Rufeng again was, "I am surprised that your advisors did not raise their weapons in a riot after you agreed to all my requirements."
