After two lifetimes, she had some understanding of Ye Shuyin's thoughts.
"Miss Ye, do you have something to ask me?" Su Lijin said more directly.
Looking upwards with satisfaction, Ye Shuyin's heartbeat was extremely fast. She excitedly cast an infatuated glance in Xiao Zhaolin's direction before nodding: "Your servant would like to use this gift in exchange for a promise from the Queen."
Su Lijin took in her thoughts and thought of something. The corners of her mouth curled up: "Miss Ye is sincere, I promise you."
Xiao Shengxing looked at her in surprise: "Queen, she hasn't said what the promise is yet."

Everyone was extremely shocked. They watched Ye Shuyin kneel down with an excited look on her face and said, "Your Highness, I want your Majesty to grant me the marriage, so that I can marry His Highness!"

The two are scheduled to get married next month.
Su Lijin looked at Xiao Zhaolin, whose face was dark from beginning to end. She knew that he was reluctant, but there was even more joy in her eyes.
She said loudly: "I am happy today, so I will give Miss Ye an additional 5,000 taels of gold as a dowry."
Everyone looked at Ye Shuyin with envy. Such a high dowry was truly magnificent!
