Lu Yue looked back at Thirteen who was standing behind her, then looked at the ambiguous looks from the others, and nodded with a red face, "Got it."

He Yun is getting more and more bold now. Why is he scratching her nose when there are so many people around?

Qi Wuyou felt relieved when he saw that He Yun and Lu Yue were getting along well. He had originally thought that they were getting married on impulse.

In fact, the reason why Qi Wuyou chose Thirteen was very simple. There would inevitably be chaos on the day of the birthday banquet, and Xuan Yelan said that that guy from Zhao State seemed to be causing trouble as well. Thirteen was the only one who could protect Qi Zi closely.

Qi Zi felt that Qi Wuyou's arrangement made sense. Thirteen was a girl, and she didn't want another stinky man to pretend to be Ye Jiu. But she still asked, "When will the exchange take place?"

Ye Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Maybe at midnight the day before the birthday party."

Qi Wuyou nodded. If they changed too early, it would be easy to be discovered. Besides, his lightness skills were not much worse than Thirteen's, so they could just change at night.

Qi Zi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. She thought they were going to switch today. Wouldn't that mean she wouldn't be able to see Ye Jiu for several days? Although she saw his face every day, that was not him.

Qi Wuyou saw all of Qi Zi's movements, and she smiled and teased, "Sister, are you reluctant to part with Ye Jiu?"

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Qi Zi, and Qi Zi's face turned red instantly.

Lu Yue, who was sitting closest to Qi Zi, couldn't help but burst into laughter. Qi Zi couldn't stand it any longer, "You're still laughing. Aren't you inseparable from He Yun? What qualifications do you have to laugh at me?"

Lu Yue fell silent instantly and covered Qi Zi's mouth. "What are you talking about? How could I have that?"

Qi Wuyou couldn't help laughing, but his attempt to hide his guilt only made it more obvious. His face turned red, yet he still said no?

"What are you laughing at?" Qi Zi broke free from Lu Yue's restraints, turned around and saw Qi Wuyou hiding aside and laughing, "She said she didn't say anything about you, right?"

Qi Wuyou was confused. What happened to her? She and Xuan Yelan weren't that close.

Qi Zi stood up and pushed Xuan Yelan aside, then sat next to Qi Wuyou.

Xuan Yelan's face was so dark that water seemed to drip out of it, but he didn't dare to do anything to Qi Zi. He could only sit obediently in the seat where Qi Zi had just sat.

Qi Zi held Qi Wuyou's hand and said, "I heard that you slept with that bastard these past two days?"

The bastard naturally referred to Xuan Yelan, and everyone understood that.

After these words were spoken, He Yun almost choked. He looked at Xuan Yelan with glares, and said, "I didn't expect you to be such an emperor. If I had known this, I would rather die than send the princess over. Isn't this sending the princess into a wolf's den?"

Although the princess is your queen now, she is still a child. How can you do this? You are worse than an animal.

Xuan Yelan felt guilty when He Yun looked at him. He coughed dryly and looked away.

It was indeed he who suggested sleeping together. Although he did not do anything, after being glared at by He Yun, he felt that he had done something unforgivable.

Lu Yue looked at Xuan Yelan and wondered what he didn’t understand. He actually tricked An An into sleeping with him?

He immediately raised his foot and gave Xuan Yelan a heavy blow.

Xuan Yelan had no choice but to endure it. He now suspected that Qi Zi and Lu Yue had discussed this beforehand.

Qi Wuyou looked incredulous, "How did sister know that?"

Qi Ziyu waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about how I know this. You haven't even reached the age of marriage yet."

"Girls should respect themselves and love themselves. Don't be fooled by that big-tailed wolf. I tell you, men never tell the truth."

Qi Wuyou sighed. Her soul was already 26 years old, so she didn't reject Xuan Yelan. Besides, he really didn't do anything, so she just covered herself with the quilt and went to sleep.

She immediately swore to Qi Zi, "Good sister, I know about this. When I go back today, I will throw his things out."

Qi Zi nodded, "That's about right."

Seeing that Qi Zi had calmed down, Qi Wuyou wanted to pick up some food for him, but suddenly realized that there was no crab cake that Qi Zi liked on the table today, so he went out to ask someone to bring a plate of it.

Unexpectedly, he met an unexpected person at the stairs—the eldest prince of Qing, Li Yun.

He was still dressed as a woman today, in a white dress, looking fresh and refined.

If Qi Wuyou didn't know that he was a man, he would have thought he was a fairy who had descended to earth.

"Empress Xuan," Although Li Yun was wearing women's clothes, his etiquette was that only men could perform, which looked very strange.

Qi Wuyou returned the greeting and wanted to go downstairs past him. She just thought that he happened to come here today, after all, Baiweizhai was famous.

Unexpectedly, Li Yun stopped her and said, "Wait a minute, Madam."

Qi Wuyou's heart was filled with alarm, she felt that this person had bad intentions, but she still said calmly, "What's the matter, eldest prince?"

Li Yun looked carefully into Qi Wuyou's eyes, then suddenly lowered his head and smiled.

Qi Wuyou didn't understand what was going on. Li Yun looked up and said to Qi Wuyou with a smile, "I've heard that Baiweizhai is well-known. Your Majesty, are you free? Could you please do me a favor and treat your Majesty to a meal?"

Qi Wuyou refused without even thinking, "No, there are people waiting for me, please do as you please, First Prince."

Having said that, Qi Wuyou walked past Li Yun and prepared to go downstairs. If Ye Qi hadn't come, she might have really said goodbye to Li Yun.

After all, Xuan Yelan and the others were on the third floor, and they met on the stairs leading to the first floor.

Qi Wuyou was really worried that Li Yun would do something to her. Although they were in a restaurant, Xuan Yelan said that Li Yun was a lunatic.

Qi Wuyou winked at Ye Qi who was in the corner tower on the first floor. Ye Qi nodded and retreated.

When Qi Wuyou returned with the crab cakes, Li Yun was still standing on the stairs, looking at her with interest.

Qi Wuyou pretended to be calm and tried to get past Li Yun.

Really, I should have asked Yushu to build an extra staircase earlier.

As they passed by each other, Li Yun spoke again, "Are you having dinner here with His Majesty the Emperor?"

Qi Wuyou nodded.

Li Yun smiled and said, "All right, I'll go down and pay my respects to His Majesty Emperor Xuan."

Qi Wuyou quickly refused, "No need, Your Majesty and I are in disguise, so please choose a day to meet Your Highness the Crown Prince." He couldn't let her see her sister and He Yun inside.

Li Yun raised his eyebrows and became more determined to go up and take a look.

"Your Majesty Emperor Xuan is the king. Although I am not a native of Xuan, I am also a subject. How can a subject hide when seeing the king?"

Qi Wuyou frowned. How could this guy not tell good from bad? Didn’t he see that she didn’t welcome him?

Qi Wuyou was about to speak again, but Xuan Yelan came down and asked, "Grand Prince of Qing, what are you doing stopping my queen?"

Li Yun turned around and saw Xuan Yelan standing at the stairs on the second floor, looking at him, and he seemed very unhappy.

Li Yun was shocked. He thought that Queen Xuan was trying to stop them because she was meeting someone secretly, but he didn't expect that Emperor Xuan was really here.

But he reacted immediately, moved aside to let Qi Wuyou go up first, and then he went up himself.

"I have admired His Majesty Emperor Xuan for a long time and wanted to pay him a visit, but I didn't expect His Majesty Emperor Xuan to come out on his own."

Xuan Yelan held Qi Wuyou's hand and ignored him, instead saying to Qi Wuyou, "The Queen just came down to get some cakes, why did she take so long?"

Qi Wuyou curled his lips and said, "Aren't you asking this question even though you already know the answer?"

But she still replied obediently, "It just so happened that I ran into the eldest prince, so I said a few more words."

Xuan Yelan's eyes then fell on Li Yun who was standing beside him, "Now that you've met, you can leave."
