The King of Nan'an's carriage slowly drove into the capital, followed closely by a long procession filled with all kinds of precious gifts. Their destination was the Qi Mansion in the capital, and these gifts were betrothal gifts for the eldest daughter of the Qi Mansion.

The central door of the Qi Mansion was wide open, and two rows of servants in brand new clothes were neatly lined up at the door, each of their faces filled with joy and anticipation.

In front of the door, a group of Qi family men dressed in luxurious clothes were looking forward to the arrival of King Nangan anxiously. They were very excited at the moment.

The old man of the Qi family also changed into a new set of clothes and stood in front of everyone in high spirits. He smiled and his eyes were shining with satisfaction. As an elder of the Qi family, he knew that this marriage meant strong protection for the Qi family. Now seeing King Nan'an coming in person to propose marriage, he was naturally very happy.

"Here they come!" A loud shout was heard, and Steward Qi ran over breathlessly. His face was full of excitement, and he pointed to the distance and said, "King Nan'an's convoy has arrived!"

As soon as the words fell, a long team appeared in front of everyone. The team carried boxes of exquisite betrothal gifts and walked along the street like a colorful dragon. Each box was filled with rare treasures, demonstrating the wealth and sincerity of Nan'an.

In the center of the team, there was a gorgeous carriage, pulled by four snow-white horses, and the body of the carriage was inlaid with gems, which looked particularly dazzling. This carriage represented the noble status of the King of Nan'an. The king personally came to the door to deliver the betrothal gifts, which made the Qi family feel honored.

Old Master Qi knelt down and said, "This old minister pays respect to Your Majesty."

The people in the Qi Mansion knelt down and kowtowed one after another.

"Please stand up." King Nannan raised his hand.

A guard came forward and helped Old Master Qi and Qi Lu and his son up.

The betrothal gifts were carried into the Qi Mansion, and the carriage also entered the Qi Mansion. There was a long team behind, carrying the betrothal gifts.

The crowd of onlookers was like a tide. They were watching the excitement and whispering, "In the past few years, people have said that the eldest daughter of the Qi family can't get married. Look how well she got married."

A well-dressed man stood on the street, watching the wedding procession passing by, shaking his head and saying, "Look at that woman, she was almost unmarried, but now the king has come in person with a generous betrothal gift to marry her as queen!"

Another person replied, "Jealous? Envious? They have that fate."

The crowd laughed, "Yes, I have the fate of a phoenix."

A young woman stood in the middle of the crowd. She was tall and pretty, but her eyes were full of jealousy and resentment.

She stared at the long line of betrothal gifts in front of her, full of resentment: "Why does she have such a good fate? Why?"

This woman was Qi Wan’s cousin, Yuan Pandi.

At this time, a woman in the crowd noticed Yuan Pandi's expression and heard what she said. She took the initiative to come over and said to her: "Come on, girl, I have a way for you to take everything from this guy!"

"Okay." When Yuan Pandi heard that she could take away Qi Wan's man, status, and wealth, she followed the old woman out of the crowd without any suspicion.

Yuan Pandi was so jealous that she had completely forgotten that she was in danger. She only wanted to have everything that Qi Wan had and replace her, even risking her life by following a stranger.

The old woman obviously had ulterior motives and took Yuan Pandi into a remote alley.

The alley became narrower and narrower, and the surrounding environment became more and more eerie and terrifying. Yuan Pandi finally realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. The woman suddenly stopped, turned around and showed a ferocious smile: "Haha, girl, this is a good and quiet place!"

Yuan Pandi was terrified and wanted to escape, but the woman had already stopped her and grabbed her arm and dragged her deeper. Jealousy not only made Yuan Pandi crazy, but also made her lose her mind. Now, she was in a huge crisis, and her life and death were uncertain...

King Nan'an entered the Qi Palace and was ushered into the main hall in the front yard to sit down. The people in the Qi Palace came forward one by one to pay their respects to him.

King Nan'an smiled and said, "We will be a family from now on. There is no need to pay attention to these etiquettes."

However, Old Master Qi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this won't do. You are the monarch, and we are just subjects. There should be a difference between the monarch and the subjects, and we should bow to each other."

"It's a different matter outside, but we are gathered at home now. In terms of seniority, I am your junior, so there is really no need for such a great ceremony." King Nannan insisted.

Seeing that there were no outsiders present, the people in the Qi mansion listened to him and stopped bowing.

Pei looked at her son-in-law and became more and more happy. Not only because he was handsome, but also because he was a king with a high status and great power, and he would be able to protect her daughter well in the future.

She couldn't help but smile and murmured to herself: "That's great, that's great..."

Qi Wan knew that Brother Qin had arrived at the Qi Mansion with the betrothal gifts. Because she was about to get married, she could not meet her fiancé before the wedding.

But she missed Brother Qin too much, and wanted to see what it would be like if Brother Qin became a king.

She turned her rosary beads and sneaked to the front yard to meet Brother Qin secretly.

Seeing Wang Qin wearing a gorgeous yellow dragon robe, he looked even more handsome and dignified. She said happily, "It's good that Brother Qin has become the king. No one can harm him anymore!"

Wang Qin didn't know that the little dumpling he was thinking about was secretly watching him.

Wang Qin told the people of Qi Palace how he became the King of Nangan: "My uncle was seriously ill and called me to his side. In front of the sickbed, he held my hand and passed the throne to me, saying, 'Aqin, this may be God's will. Your two cousins ​​were killed by the foreign army. They didn't leave any sons or daughters. The throne is passed to you. Remember what your father taught you. After you take the throne, find a way to get rid of the foreign army and avenge your two cousins.'"

Then, Wang Qin continued, "I thought that only by becoming the King of Nan'an could I protect little...Awan, so I agreed."

When saying this, Wang Qin's eyes were full of affection and determination.

When Qi Wan heard this, a warm feeling surged in his heart and he was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

She knew that Brother Qin had seen through the ruthlessness of the royal family and fell in love with a free life. He was unwilling to be the emperor of the Pu Dynasty. Now, in order to give her a high status and protect her, Brother Qin actually agreed to be the king of Nan'an.

Qi Wan understood what this decision meant. As the King of Nangan, Wang Qin would face tremendous pressure and responsibility. He needed to deal with the invasion of foreign armies, govern the country, maintain stability, and handle complex political relations. These were not easy tasks. But in order to be with her, he accepted this challenge without hesitation.

She knew very well how deep Wang Qin's love for her was, and he was willing to give everything for their love.

She secretly made up her mind, "No matter how difficult the future may be, I will do my best to help Brother Qin."

Because she knows that their happiness depends not only on their feelings for each other, but also on their persistence and hard work when facing difficulties together.

At this moment, Qi Wan felt an unprecedented sense of responsibility.

She realized that she could not just rely on Wang Qin's care, but should be his strong backing. She wanted to use her wisdom and strength to help Wang Qin cope with various challenges and make their country prosperous.
