Ji Yan also heard the anger in Wei Yun's words.

he is angry...

The young man lowered his eyes and grabbed her cold-fingered hand hidden under the cloak, and took her out.

Xie Chengan didn't stop him. What Wei Yun did just now was considered offensive, but what he said was not unreasonable. Not to mention that his cousin came here today because of his gift.

When they got outside, the wind was really strong. Wei Yun put on the wide hood for her silently, and then waited side by side with her for the boat to dock.

Ji Yan raised her hand to pull up the brim of her hat, tilted her head, and her eyes fell on Wei Yun without blinking.

She wasn't very good at holding back her worries and questions, so she asked, "Were you angry just now?"

The wind on the river was as cold as a knife, but the lady's words were as soft as honey.

Wei Yun pursed her lips: "Not really."

The mouth is still hard.

Ji Yan glanced at him a few more times, then said softly and stopped asking.

Wei Yun had already let go of her hand, and the two stood very close to each other. The trains of two different colors of skirts were occasionally blown together by the wind, as if they were cuddling closely.

As soon as the boat docked, Wei Yun got out first, then turned back and handed his hand to Ji Yan.

Such thoughtfulness made Ji Yan stunned. She slightly lifted the hem of her skirt and bent down to get off the boat. However, she never thought that she had been standing for too long. Now she moved, her feet went soft, and she ran straight into Wei Yun's arms.

The young man reacted quickly, wrapping his hands around her waist like iron pliers and carefully taking her into his arms.

Wei Yun's eyes darkened, he lowered his head, and the tip of his nose touched the top of the young lady's hair, and the addictive sweet and cloying aroma came in.

He raised his lips slightly at this moment and said deliberately: "Miss, are you throwing yourself into my arms?"

Ji Yan clenched his shirt tightly with her fingers and stood up with a blush on her cheeks.

After getting out of his arms, she said softly: "Don't be joking."

Wei Yun's smile became even deeper.

Ji Yan felt that he had really become less and less recently, so she couldn't help but glare at him, and then with the help of Biyun who came over, she got into the palace's carriage.

Wei Yun watched the carriage leave, but did not follow in time.

He wrote down all the people on the ship who had bullied her.

Since I have avenged the young lady once, there is no difference in helping her again.

After the unhappy marriage that day, the story of the crown prince and his cousin spread among the people, and it spread like wildfire.

A few days later, the people who made rude remarks to Ji Yan on the boat that day were inexplicably kidnapped to the brothel one after another. They were completely humiliated and made a big joke.

That's it. I don't know who started spreading the rumor. This matter must be the prince venting his anger on the young lady. Such disregard for the family's face can be said to be very devoted to this cousin.

I also heard that this cousin is more beautiful than a fairy and is a rare beauty.

The public changed their tune, from thinking that Ji Yan was not worthy of the crown prince to praising the two as a match made in heaven.

This matter even reached the ears of the Holy Emperor in the palace.

The Holy Emperor also sent his confidant eunuch to the palace to inquire about the marriage, but in fact he just wanted Xie Chengan to marry Ji Yan.

Xie Chengan was too outstanding, and if he married into a noble family, his potential would be even greater. The Holy Emperor, judging the situation, wanted to take this opportunity to ask him to get married to a woman with no background, so that he would be less of a threat in the future.

Xie Cheng'an himself had no intention of competing, so obeying the emperor's wishes and marrying Ji Yan as the crown prince was the best way for him at the moment.

Even for Ji Yan, putting aside the power dispute, the advantages of this marriage outweigh the disadvantages for her.

It rained lightly today, so Xie Chengan asked Ji Yan to meet at the library.

Xie Chengan has told her everything about the matter and also expressed his thoughts: "To be honest with my cousin, the Holy One has always regarded me as a thorn in his side in recent years. He wants to weaken my power, and I myself do not desire power. Therefore, as long as I obey His Majesty's blows, I can resolve my current predicament."

In other words, Xie Chengan needs a shield.

By marrying him, Ji Yan can not only ward off the suspicion of the Holy Emperor, but also ward off the women in Kyoto who aspire to become the crown prince's concubine.

Ji Yan lowered her eyes and said, "Marriage is not a trivial matter. Are you sure you have thought it through carefully?"

After the prince fell silent, he said: "I also know that doing this will wrong my cousin, but it is really a helpless move. Let me tell you something that my cousin doesn't like to hear. Only by marrying me will you and your uncle be able to gain a foothold in Kyoto and no longer be The world is pointing behind my back. I know this is a bit hurtful, but my cousin is smart and should be able to understand what I mean."

"Besides, you and I are only a couple in name only after we get married. I won't lay a finger on my cousin, but I won't miss out on my cousin in the way that a Crown Princess should. If my cousin has someone he loves in the future, no matter what No matter what the current situation is, I will give my cousin a divorce letter."

Originally, in the original novel, she was going to marry Xie Chengan as the nominal couple.

Nowadays, it is indeed affected by many factors, and she can only break the situation by getting married to Xie Chengan.

Besides, this matter would be of no harm to her, so there was nothing hard to agree to.

She nodded and said: "I understand what my cousin means. This matter is also good for me. I am willing to marry my cousin. But it is empty words. What my cousin promised just now is still written down in black and white. "

Xie Chengan curled his lips lightly: "This matter is not difficult, but in the end I have wronged my cousin. I will try my best to give my cousin the best gift for you and me as a wedding gift."

Ji Yan did not shirk, nodded and said: "That's good."

In a way, she is still very frank and indeed a very lovable character.

Xie Chengan also thought that maybe he could really marry his cousin.

But he could see that his cousin didn't care about him, so he couldn't force the matter.In addition, he had a vague premonition in his heart that in the near future, he would meet a woman who would be in love with him, so he would not be able to delay his cousin even more.

After the two discussed it, Xie Chengan drew up a written document. After each of them pressed their fingerprints, the contract came into effect.

But Xie Chengan didn't want a third party to know about the nominal couple. After all, the fewer people who knew about it, the better, so he also planned to hide the truth about Ji Yan.

Before leaving, Ji Yan remembered something again and asked him: "There are rumors circulating that my cousin packed up the people who humiliated me that day and sent them to a brothel to embarrass them. Is it true?"

"I've also heard about this." But Xie Cheng'an shook his head, "I didn't do it."

Ji Yan was slightly stunned, but she showed no emotion on her face, just thoughtful in her heart.

"In that case, I will go back first." The girl stood up and said.

Xie Chengan nodded: "Cousin, please go back and rest first, I will arrange the rest."

So from this day on, everyone in the palace knew that the prince would be getting married to his cousin soon.

Only Wei Yun was taking exams during this time and didn't know about it.

Xie Cheng'an did what he said. The betrothal gift was worth a fortune. He also invited the best embroiderer in Kyoto to measure Ji Yan's measurements and start making the wedding dress.

Ji Yan has also become the envy of everyone in Kyoto, but Ji Yan herself is indifferent to this.

The wedding is scheduled for the fifth day of next month.

After Wei Yun finished the exam, before returning to the palace, he learned about Ji Yan and Xie Chengan's marriage from passers-by.
