"Master, what do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly?" Yinji's heart moved.
"I can't marry the princess. This is not only for myself, but also for the Jin Palace, and even more so for the princess. She is still young and should not become a political sacrifice."
At this time, Yin Yao, who was about to come in from the door, stopped in his tracks.
She turned aside and listened quietly outside the door.

Yin Yao didn't know how she got back to her room.
She only remembered that her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and Zhao Muyun's words "Anyway, I won't marry your sister" kept echoing in her ears. Every word was like a needle piercing her heart.
