I heard that she and Ji Yuan didn't have a good relationship, and now her engagement was broken off by the Duke's Mansion. I guess she was being treated as a soft persimmon by those people in the Pacification Office.
Ye Wanshu wasn't afraid that he wouldn't agree, so she curled her lips and smiled, "Does Your Highness mind?"
"I don't mind." Fu Mingchi shook his head. "But I have a question. You and Qi Yunsheng are in love, so why are you thinking of plotting against him?"
"Qi Yunsheng and I are in love?" Ye Wanshu felt like she had just heard a huge joke.
That person almost dug up her Ye family's ancestral grave. I really don't know where he heard the words "become a perfect match" from.
If the five hundred thousand taels of silver were destined to be lost, she would rather give it to Fu Mingchi. At least, apart from plotting against her marriage, this man had never done anything to harm anyone's life.
Looking at her eyes, Fu Mingchi realized that this woman and Qi Yunsheng did not seem to be as he thought. He was secretly happy and his brows relaxed a lot.

My silver is mine, and the silver I got back from Qi Yunsheng is still mine. If Your Highness feels that you are at a disadvantage, I can take care of the little princess for a while longer."
Fu Mingchi just sneered in his heart, thinking that he had met a money-grubber who valued money more than his life.
But on second thought, being able to encourage the Pacification Commissioner to go to sea as soon as possible is indeed more beneficial than harmful.
"Not bad, the king agrees."
Fu Mingchi smiled faintly: "If you need to use someone in the future, remember to only look for me, don't look for anyone else."
