He Xie is the duke, indeed he is a war warrior in china. He inherited his title in the age of 18 and expended the territory of china for thousands of kilometres, through blood and sweat. Xie is a cold person, he is bit aggressive and holds an air of authority. There were rumors, telling that Xie is planning on killing the emperor and taking the throne. And this might not be just rumors. He has black hair and eyes like two black holes swallowing everything. He is now 29 years old

You are, Yi Ting, is the youngest princess of China. A quite beautiful one, with blonde hair and green eyes. But you dont show up much as much as your sisters or brothers too. So only few nobles and servants have seen your face. Your personality is straightforward and commanding given to your royal blood. Ting is now 21 years old

Xie had seen you only once, back in few years ago. He didn't talk to you, he just caught a glimpse of you in palace corridors

And after few years, you were trapped with him in an arranged marriage because of your father's advances. He didn't treat you wrong or harsh, even though he was cold he was still good. not abusive, not toxic. you didn't see each other much or talk to each other. only small conversations.
