Then they secretly investigated.
Qi Yuyan laughed and said, "You know to look for your cousin, but you've never thought of looking for me?"
Yun Xiyue frowned. "Young Master Qi...is there some misunderstanding?"
"No, it's just that I suddenly realized I quite like you. I was very happy when the Empress Dowager said she would bestow a marriage upon us. I just didn't expect that you were already taken."
It was still Murong Yu.
If it were anyone else, he might have been able to win over or even seize the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
But the person she loved was actually the emperor.
Even if he dies, he probably won't get what he wants.
Yun Xiyue was stunned, and immediately felt extremely uncomfortable, wishing she could leave.
"Young Master Qi..."
"Yes, I'm here. Don't be nervous. I knew you would refuse me, so I'm already prepared to accept it calmly. I've sent someone to find my cousin. You can wait a little longer," Qi Yuyan said with a smile.
"Don't worry! I've taken care of everything, and no one will gossip."
"It's absolutely safe to meet my cousin here."
Fu Rui Lou was his territory.
He'll kill anyone who dares to touch her.
A cold glint flashed in Qi Yuyan's eyes, then he smiled at her, "Even if we can't be husband and wife, we can still be friends. I hope you won't stop cooperating with me because of this. That arena is quite nice."
"Your suggestion is excellent; business has been very good lately."
"If I have the opportunity, I would like to cooperate with the future queen and continue doing business."
She continued to do business even after marrying the emperor.
Qi Yuyan was certain of this without even needing to ask.
Yun Xiyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, no problem. But I only cooperate with Young Master Qi. If it's just your personal business, I think it's fine. But with your Qi family..."
The Qi family doesn't even know if they will become enemies with Murong Yu in the future.
"This is my personal business. What do you think about the spices we talked about last time?"
Yun Xiyue said, "Send me a list of spices later so I can check the prices."
Qi Yuyan smiled and said, "Okay."
After a while, Pei Shang arrived.
Yun Xiyue glanced at Qi Yuyan, indicating that he should leave first.
"What secret can't I know?" Qi Yuyan muttered in dissatisfaction, but still got up and left.
Pei Shang sat down; it had been a long time since the two had seen each other.
Firstly, because of the last letter.
Pei Shang felt sorry for her and was too ashamed to see her, but since she had specifically sought him out today, it must be for some reason.
"Are you in any trouble?"
Yun Xiyue was also embarrassed. "Well, there's something I'd like to ask Young Master Pei."
“If you marry the Emperor, you’ll be my cousin-in-law. You can just ask me anything; there’s no need to be so polite.” Pei Shang’s tone was gentle, trying his best not to make her feel uncomfortable.
He behaved no differently than before.
"When the Emperor was the Crown Prince, were you with him at the border?"
Pei Shang smiled and said, "Yes, together. I followed my cousin for a long time before leaving the capital three years ago to study abroad on my own. To say I was studying abroad was really just me being immature and running away from home."
When this matter was brought up, Pei Shang simply smiled.
"Your cousin must have told you?"
Yun Xiyue nodded. "Yes, His Majesty actually wants you to have more options and hopes you can enter the court."
Pei Shang clenched his fist with his fingertips. "I understand my cousin's feelings, but Father prefers my second brother."
"I felt he was more suited to the imperial court, and he trained me in martial arts more from a young age."
Yun Xiyue said, "But I see that you are skilled in both literature and martial arts."
