As I said before, she is a princess; one day, she will marry a prince. That is the end of the story…

I’m not good with comforting others. But, your mother’s story was supposed to end with marriage. She refused to accept that, and ended up as one of greatest heroes in history.

Life doesn’t always go as planned, does it?

…No, it doesn’t. In fact, it is probably one of the most complicated things known to man.

Don’t think too hard about it. 

Go jog up a mountain, and that’ll refresh yourself.

Have you even met Princess Ying Hua or Princess Zi Teng? They are nothing like their father. They get most of their qualities fom Empress Ting Ting.

I have not. But that doesn’t excuse who their father is.

But you shouldn’t judge someone base on their kin, but based on who they are on as a person. Ying Hua is possibly one of the most brightest, caring, and most amiable person there is.

…

You sound as if you care for this girl.

… That’s right. Since we were children…

Children…? 

That is a… very long time.

Still. She is arranged for marriage. 

I… -sighs- I know…

…I am sorry, but that is the way it should be.

Yes. I don’t like the sound of this place. There’s too much controversial activity.

Well do you want the Huns to still come over us. -skeptical look-

If it means my daughters and sons aren’t drinking and having dishonorable relationships-

then yes.

-sigh- When you and Mother talk about flying pigs then I’ll go back.

…

If Mulan was awake, we would talk about pigs.

As much as I want to, I already made this decision a while back. I am not about to change it now. 

Ah. So that’s where the Mulan in you comes out. 

You’re stubborn. 

Well. I wouldn’t have you marrying any daughter of Ling’s anyway.

…For curiousity’s sake, why not?

Because.

He is rude, obnoxious, and completely shameful. And he is much too skinny. Do you want weak children in the Li family bloodline?

Just because he is, doesn’t mean his daughters are, baba.

It’s in them. They will pass it down to their children, I know it.

I do not want little Ling’s around my compound, Jing Xi.
