Chapter 645 – Decision – Part 1

'As I thought, something wrong is about to happen.' Selena furrowed her brow as her bad omen came true and looked at The Crown Prince Virion unpleasantly. Despite his good look, she loathed him for bringing up this topic. However, she did not react as she tried to figure out the implication behind the marriage.

Tang Shaoyang was trying to obtain the two great forces in Gigante Forest to conquer the whole forest. As someone close to Tang Shaoyang, Selena was aware of their goals. If they could take the Gigante Forest, including the Moonlight Tribe and The Elven, then the continent would be their next goal. The two forces would smooth their way to achieving the goal.

Selena wanted to voice out her inner feelings that she did not agree with this, but she could not do that since she knew their goal was. She thought about why The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe asked for the marriage. She immediately got the answer, just like when Tang Shaoyang married her with an oath.

The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe wanted something that could assure them of being The Empire's vassal. Marriage was the best choice to ensure that The Empire would not throw them away after conquering the Ortis Continent. She was fully aware of that; hence she could not say anything. These people were trying to ensure their people's safety.

Selena glanced at Ashley, and the latter was a lot calmer than she thought. She stayed cool and said nothing. In the end, the decision was on their man. She glanced at Tang Shaoyang and found out that he did not expect the marriage condition either.

Tang Shaoyang had the same thought as Selena as to why The Elven wanted to marry the royalty to him. It was easy to read. His index finger tapped against the table and thought about the condition. He then looked at Lusha. The latter flinched slightly, but she did not lower her head this time.

"Don't tell me The Moonlight Tribe's one condition is marriage as well?" Tang Shaoyang asked the bunny girl.

Lusha took a deep breath and nodded her head. "Yes, Chief Moon asked you to marry The Moonlight Maiden. She is Chief Moon's eldest daughter, and if you agree with the condition. The Moonlight Tribe is willing to be The Tang Empire's vassal."

Family Bond, once The Emperor married The Moonlight Maiden, The Tang Empire became their family and a new home. That was the only thing The Moonlight Tribe wanted from The Tang Empire. They did not ask for a high position or a title from The Empire. As long as Sylvia did her job, it was just a matter of time before the Moonlight Tribe could attain the position in The Empire.

That was the Moonlight Tribe's plan, or to be more exact, Sylvia's plan. All of this was Sylvia's plan, and she asked her father to trust the tribe in her hand. As long as she became one of The Emperors, she would secure the Moonlight Tribe's future. If she could become The Emperor's beloved, then it was just a matter of time until the Moonlight Tribe rose in position. They just need to offer one condition for that to happen: The Moonlight Maiden has to marry The Emperor.

Tang Shaoyang rubbed his forehead for a moment. He quickly realized that words from his mouth might not be enough to gain The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe's trust. He could not refuse the request if he wanted to absorb The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe's forces into The Empire. "Before I make my decision, let me see the brides first."

After saying that, Tang Shaoyang realized something. The person in the carriage, they were the brides. The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe never planned to rescue the hostages and fight him. Their purpose in talking to him was for him to agree to marry their people. Indeed, if he married their people, he could not hurt them. Not that Tang Shaoyang planned to throw them away after he achieved his goal, either. But just as he thought, his words were not enough to convince them.

The Crown Prince Virion and Lusha stood up, and they bowed toward him. "We will bring her to meet you." After that, the two left the meeting hall. Tang Shaoyang expanded his senses once again, and he guessed right. The person in the carriage was coming out. He could not see them, but he could sense their movement.

"What do you think? Should I agree with their condition, or should we conquer them forcefully?" Tang Shaoyang was asking the two girls. Since Zhang Mengyao and Kang Xue were not here, he had to ask the two girls' permission.

Selena looked at Ashley, and she knew the importance of the two forces for them to conquer the forest. She could not say thoughtlessly that she did not agree with the condition. Ashley looked toward Tang Shaoyang and answered. "You have to agree with their request. If we fight them, it will weaken our force to fight the Lionax Kingdom and other two kingdoms."

Weaken our force, meaning they would weaken The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe's forces. Since it was a war, casualties were bound to happen. Even if they did not suffer much, the Elven and The Moonlight Tribe might suffer from the battle. By the time they joined the empire, their forces had been weakened from the battle. That was what Ashley meant by weakening our force.

"Not only that, fighting The Elven and The Moonlight Tribe will be giving The Lionax Kingdom more time to subdue the Revolution Army. That's not good for us, and it will be best for us to fight The Lionax Kingdom as soon as possible, forcing them to use all their hidden cards from the start. We don't know if they have more reserve forces in another world."

"If you are asking for my feelings, then I don't mind it. I have prepared myself for this the moment I accepted you." That was the end of Ashley's answer regarding the marriage matter.. She looked for the big picture, the benefit of accepting the two forces' request instead of going to war against the two forces.
