Nangong Yi immediately stood up and walked out of the hall. When will Xie Zhiyi understand that words can cause trouble?

Even if he really...

But he also understood that if someone with ulterior motives heard it, it would be a very bad thing.

Xie Zhiyi immediately followed him, "Cousin, don't go." She chased after him, her skirt lifted. She seemed to smell the scent of gossip. How could her cousin, who was away from home all year round, know Yu Guiwan?

Xie Zhiyi chased after him, approached Nangong Yi and whispered, "Do you really like it?"

Nangong Yi still didn't speak, nor did he stop.

She had originally doubted whether Nangong Yi was real or fake, but now seeing Nangong Yi's expression and reaction, it seemed to be true. She had no idea that she would be able to find out the answer after just asking casually.

"You have such a bad temper. It's really unlucky for me to be liked by you."

Seeing that Nangong Yi had been silent, Xie Zhiyi deliberately provoked him. Although he said this, Xie Zhiyi actually thought so in his heart. Who would like Nangong Yi with that temper?

As expected, Nangong Yi stopped immediately when he heard this.

Xie Zhiyi watched him stop and quickly walked to Nangong Yi's side. "It's a pity that even if you like her, she's already married."

As soon as she finished speaking, Nangong Yi's eyes became even darker, and he looked as if he wanted to kill Xie Zhiyi immediately. Xie Zhiyi shrank back when she looked at him.

She is telling the truth.

"How did you tell?"

Nangong Yi asked in a low voice, "Xie Zhiyi is so careless, how did he reveal the truth to her? The people who should know don't know, but the people who shouldn't know know it."

Xie Zhiyi laughed twice, "Your eyes are always on her, how can I not see it?" Xie Zhiyi joked, and suddenly remembered the last time he talked to Su Qingyu.

It turns out it was because of Yu Guiwan.

"It's a pity, there's no chance for you and her. The emperor's uncle holds her in the palm of his hand. With your temper, you have no chance."

Xie Zhiyi could still understand the feelings between the two of them.

Nangong Yi lowered his head and said nothing. After a long while, he murmured:

"is it?"

……

After Xie Zhiyi and Nangong Yi separated, she heard from the maid that Her Royal Highness the Princess had come to see her and was waiting for her to return in her palace.

"Why is Auntie here at this time? Didn't I hear that you were not feeling well a few days ago?"

she murmured.

She felt a little strange in her heart. Although her aunt treated her very well and would usually have people send any new and interesting things to the palace, this was the first time she had entered the palace to see her.

When Xie Zhiyi returned, Xie Rou had already been sitting there for a while.

When Xie Rou saw her come back, she stood up and walked towards her, holding her hand, "Yong'an, don't worry. Auntie will definitely not let you go to marry. I will go to plead with His Majesty later." Xie Rou comforted her.

Speaking of this incident, Xie Zhiyi suddenly realized.

It turned out that my aunt came here for this matter, and I couldn't help but feel moved.

"Aunt, you don't have to go. If my father really wants me to go to marry, then I'll go to Yong'an." Xie Zhiyi smiled. She had heard a lot of things today, and now this was the only option.

Xie Rou looked at the "sensible" Xie Zhiyi in front of her calmly, feeling puzzled.

Logically speaking, when Xie Zhiyi heard about the marriage to Zhao State, he should have made a big fuss and messed up the palace, right?

Why is Xie Zhiyi just accepting his fate like this now?

"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xie Rou looked at her distressedly and rubbed her head. "You don't know the character of the Zhao crown prince. He is so dissolute all day long. How can you live happily if you marry him?"

Xie Rou guessed that Xie Zhiyi must be unaware of the character of the Crown Prince of Zhao, otherwise, given her usual personality, how could she be willing to marry such a person?

"If the Zhao Kingdom hadn't taken advantage of the situation, they would have dared to dream of marrying our legitimate princess. It's simply a pipe dream. Our Yong'an is worthy of her even with the best man in the world."

"Auntie will never let you jump into the fire pit. If I had to watch you marry the Zhao prince knowing clearly that he is not a human being, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life."

As she spoke, Xie Rou wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Xie Rou now looks like an elder who is worried about the younger generation. There is no trace of flaw in her eyes.

Seeing Xie Rou like this, Xie Zhiyi was also moved and shed tears, but she was still comforting Xie Rou, "No need, aunt. I really do it willingly." She was already content to have so many people caring about her.

"Besides, now that the border is under attack, I can't just sit there and watch my father fret over this. I've enjoyed a good life for so many years, and now it's time for me to repay him."

She never imagined in the past that she would actually marry a foreign princess.

But being a princess might be her fate. She originally wanted to find a man she truly loved, but she never met one. Maybe it was God's arrangement for her to marry a foreign prince.

Xie Rou looked at Xie Zhiyi's current appearance and knew that she had already accepted her fate in her heart.

Xie Rou just felt a little regretful in her heart.

If Xie Zhiyi hadn't made a fuss, he would have missed a really good show.

Xie Rou thought so in her heart, and her expression was still worried about Xie Zhiyi, "I will go to see His Majesty now, you should have a good rest." With that, Xie Rou walked away.

"Aunt, don't go. I'm afraid the emperor won't see you right now!" Xie Zhiyi shouted behind her, but Xie Rou still didn't stop.

Xie Rou turned around and regained her indifferent expression, sneering in her heart.

Silly child, you will regret your decision today when you arrive in Zhao State.

……

After coming out of Xie Zhiyi's palace, the maid beside Xie Rou asked, "Your Highness, are you really going to see His Majesty?"

"Of course. How can I, as your aunt, watch Yong'an go to marry and turn a blind eye?" Her eyes were calm and her words were without any warmth coming out of her mouth. His Majesty must be annoyed now.

The maid frowned and advised, "But His Majesty is upset right now. If we go now, we might upset His Majesty."

Xie Rou curled her lips when she heard this. Didn't she know that going to dissuade him would definitely not solve the problem, but would make the matter more complicated?

She was definitely going to cause trouble for His Majesty this time. She just felt that His Majesty was not annoying enough and that the harem was not chaotic enough. His Majesty had always loved his only daughter, even if he was really cruel enough to marry Xie Zhiyi off.

But my heart is always tormented.

The Queen will also develop a grudge against His Majesty because of this, and this is exactly what she wants. The more chaotic the capital is, the better, as this will be beneficial to her.
