It has been so many days, and Emperor Xu has not yet communicated with King Xuan. Has he given up on him completely?

Yan Yuning, who was watching them from a distance, touched Xuan Yanyu's arm and said, "Xuan Xixi, this is the first time I see Qi Qingchen in such a low mood."

He sat dejectedly on the wooden chair with his head hung, looking very pitiful.

"The Crown Princess is very observant of others." The man's voice was hoarse and deep. "When Your Highness was upset by you before, why didn't Your Highness show concern for Your Highness?"

Yan Yu Ning looked at him with a smile, "When did I make you angry?"

The man's eyelashes drooped slightly, and he seemed to be even more depressed than Qi Qingchen. "When I was arguing with Prince Yu."

"Xuan Xixi, when did I not comfort you during a quarrel?"

"Do you?" Xuan Yanyu raised his eyelids, his eyes were tangled, the girl's smiling eyes met the man's pretending dim eyes, her eyelashes curved into crescents with smile, "Yes, I will coax you every time."

Xuan Yanyu pursed his lips: "..."

That's because she always quarreled with him on purpose, without exception.

Yan Yuning pinched his chin and turned her head, "Look, Qi Qingchen is about to cry, Xuan Xixi, why are you crying for me?"

"..." Xuan Yanyu took her hand and snorted coldly, "Go back home, Qi Qingchen, what's so good about it."

Yan Yuning: “…”

In the teahouse, the depressed Qi Qingchen was so angry at Yan Shiyao that his eyes turned red. From a distance, he really looked like he was about to cry.

"If you didn't agree to cancel the engagement, would I have thrown tea on you? Who are you doing this for?" Yan Shiyao was a little depressed.

"Isn't your sister the Crown Princess now? Why don't you ask your brother-in-law for help?" Qi Qingchen's cheeks felt a little burned by the scalding tea.

Yan Shiyao choked. Didn’t she look for it before?

Xuan Yanyu refused to help her, and she couldn't enter the Xuan Palace. The imperial edict had already been issued, and her father and brother were powerless. What should she do?

Is it necessary to marry Qi Qingchen?

Yan Shiyao's eyes moved slightly. No one in Xuan Zhao knew her identity. It would be better for her to find a man who shared the same sensibility with her in Xuan Zhao. Then she wouldn't have to worry about her father and mother.

After all, Ningning is now Xuan Yanyu's Crown Princess. He can't bear to see His Majesty Qi Huang implicate the Prime Minister's Mansion because of her. Thinking of this, Yan Shiyao pursed her lips and smiled.

She had had enough of the hard life with Qi Qingchen. Those days in the fragments were too real. She would dream every few days that Qi Qingchen would abandon her in the dilapidated palace after he had used her up.

She would never marry a man like him no matter what, even if the maidservants bullied her.

It would be better to marry Xuan Yanyu, who doesn't like her, than to marry him. At least she has a noble status and no worries about food and clothing.

"What? You looked for it? Didn't help you?" Qi Qingchen's eyes shone slightly, "Yan Shiyao, it was you who put Xuan..."

Qi Qingchen changed his tone, realizing that Xuan Zhao's guards were still following him. "It was you who rescued the Crown Prince and brought him back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. He still refuses to help you. Do you think it has something to do with the Crown Princess?"

"The Crown Princess was sent away when she was young, while you were spoiled by the Prime Minister's wife and the Prime Minister. Could it be that she is jealous of you and doesn't allow His Royal Highness to help you? If what Your Highness said is correct, then our marriage cannot be cancelled."

Qi Qingchen stood up suddenly, bent down and approached Yan Shiyao, and said in a very low voice, "You can only be equal to Yan Yu Ning if you marry Prince Yu. After Prince Yu takes the throne, you guarantee that the position of the Queen of Qilan will be yours."

Yan Shiyao's eyes darkened. It seemed that Xuan Yanyu had indeed been distancing himself from Ningning since he was taken back. Before Ningning came back, he would not be like this. He would try his best to meet her requirements.

Could it really be Ningning who instigated a conflict between her and Xuan Yanyu?

Before he married her, when she was in Qi Lan, Xuan Yanyu was still patient with her. It was only after he married her back to Xuan Zhao that Xuan Yanyu ignored her. But now Xuan Yanyu has changed...
