Yu Jinzhi was not surprised, because Xie Yuxiu was not the kind of person who would put himself in a difficult position.

Princess Ning'an of Li Kingdom did not seem to expect that His Majesty would reject her so bluntly. Since ancient times, it has been normal to arrange marriages for diplomatic relations between two countries, and almost everyone agrees with it. But now, Xie Yuxiu rejected it in front of the two countries. How could it be possible?

She almost subconsciously looked at Yu Jinzhi. It was rumored that the emperor had a special regard for Yu's daughter. Before, because Xie Yuxiu had never given Yu Jinzhi a name, she had always thought that he was simply weighing her opinion.

But now...

Princess Ning An quickly calmed down and decided to take things slowly. At this banquet, everyone had different thoughts.

After the banquet, Yu Jinzhi and Qingyu were just about to return to the palace when they heard someone calling them from behind.

"Princess Jiayu" is Princess Ning'an.

Yu Jinzhi was not surprised. If she didn't come to find him, it would be a problem. This Xie Yuxiu would only cause trouble for him. If he didn't understand why he had to invite him to this party just now, now he finally understood. Was he trying to block a knife?

"Princess Ning'an," Yu Jinzhi replied.

But she didn't salute, and Ning An looked at her behavior and didn't use her status to embarrass her. After all, Yu Jinzhi's position was just below Xie Yuxiu, and she couldn't be so stupid as to force Yu Jinzhi to salute and greet a foreign princess.

"I'm new here, and when I saw the princess at the banquet just now, I felt that we were destined to be friends. I wonder if I can be friends with the princess?" Ning An looked at Yu Jinzhi, and her words were full of tentativeness. She also wanted to see what kind of person Yu Jinzhi was.

How could Yu Jinzhi not know what she was thinking? Even if she didn't want to, she couldn't just refuse now. Ning An wanted to test her, so she could certainly take this opportunity to get to know Ning An.

"Of course, I have nothing to do right now. If Princess doesn't mind, I can accompany her for a walk." Yu Jinzhi replied.

"That would be great. Thank you very much, Princess." Ning An did not refuse.

After a short chat, Yu Jinzhi and Ning An started strolling around the palace. If someone who didn't know the situation saw them, they would probably think that the two of them were very harmonious.

"I've always heard that His Majesty treats the princess in an extraordinary way, and I thought it was an exaggeration, but today I see that it is really unusual." Ning An spoke first.

I knew she wanted to ask this. Yu Jinzhi really wanted to beat Xie Yuxiu up. Why did he always cause trouble for himself? He knew that Li State sent the princess here for marriage, but he deliberately let her come and arranged such a prominent position for her.

Look, here comes the princess.

But this is not the Kingdom of Li, no matter what the princess does, it should not affect her. Therefore, Yu Jinzhi does not care what the princess thinks of her.

"Your Majesty's thoughts are not something that others can guess. Just like the princess was willing to entrust her life to Your Majesty as soon as she met him today, I can't guess what the princess meant." Yu Jinzhi spoke very directly.

Ning An was not angry about this. She looked at Yu Jinzhi and said, "As a princess, I should put the diplomatic relations between the two countries first. Love affairs are just unimportant matters."

"So in the eyes of the princess, you have no feelings for His Majesty? If that's the case, do you expect His Majesty to have feelings for you in the future? If not, does the princess think that His Majesty has to keep a person without feelings around him to maintain diplomatic relations between the two countries? Since there is no affection, the relationship between the two countries is just a matter of face, and the princess... can be sacrificed at any time." As soon as Yu Jinzhi said this, Ning An also stopped.

She frowned and asked, "What does Princess Jiayu mean? Do you think this marriage is unnecessary?"

"Princess, please consider it yourself. Besides, does what I said really make no sense to you?" Yu Jinzhi asked back.

Thinking about it carefully, it does make sense, but... she is a princess. Moreover, the marriage involves two countries, so how can it not be the wish of one person?

"Today is the first time we meet, and it would be a bit presumptuous to talk about our close friendship. But some facts cannot be denied. The princess's failure to consider herself is either an act of great justice or a face-saving move. The princess should have considered this. Goodbye." Yu Jinzhi did not intend to stay any longer, as she had nothing to say anyway.

Looking at Yu Jinzhi's leaving back, Ning An seemed to be thinking about something.

"Princess, is this princess trying to persuade you to give up your marriage with His Majesty?" the maid next to her stepped forward and asked.

“If everything in the world could go as one wishes, how could there be so many people with regrets? She said it so easily, simply because she has never been in a helpless position. When she is like me, she knows that the words 'helpless' can crush all rationality.” When Princess Ning'an said this, there seemed to be a trace of sadness from afar in her eyes.

The maid dared not speak.

Princess Ning'an began to turn the bracelet on her wrist, revealing a rare hint of tenderness.

but……

"Where is my royal brother?" Ning An suddenly asked.

"I'm afraid the Third Prince has already returned." The maid replied.

"They are all the emperor's children. The status of the princess and the prince are really different. Send someone to tell my third brother that Princess Jiayu is very suitable for the position of his imperial consort." The reason why the princess and the prince were sent together this time was not only to let her stay, but also to take her away...

Ning An looked at the direction where Yu Jinzhi left: "When the time comes, you will know that being helpless like me is the most powerless struggle."

Of course, Yu Jinzhi knew nothing about all this.

When she returned to Jiayu Palace, it was brightly lit. It was obvious that Xie Yuxiu was sitting inside. He was quite cool, leaving her alone to clean up the mess.

With this in mind, Yu Jinzhi didn't give Xie Yuxiu a good look when he saw her. As soon as Xie Yuxiu saw Yu Jinzhi, before he could say anything, Yu Jinzhi rolled her eyes and walked towards the inner hall.

Xie Yuxiu was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

He quickly got up and chased after Yu Jinzhi, and pulled her into his arms.

"Our Princess Jiayu is having a bad temper?" Xie Yuxiu said with a gentle smile on his face.

Yu Jinzhi sneered: "How dare I lose my temper? Wasn't this all arranged by His Majesty?"

"Are you being sarcastic? I was wrong, please don't be angry, okay?" Xie Yuxiu coaxed Yu Jinzhi patiently.

Yu Jinzhi pushed him away: "How could your majesty be wrong? I am the one who is wrong. Your majesty, please go back. I need to take a bath."

Xie Yuxiu is now focusing on being shameless. What's the point of having face? It will only make you lose the speed of getting the beauty, okay?
