The coronation ceremony for the new emperor and the coronation ceremony for the empress were held simultaneously...
This was not only the first time for the Great Xia Dynasty, but also the first time for the entire Prosperous Continent.
On the day she was crowned empress, Qin Wan donned a phoenix robe and was sent to the Phoenix Palace where the empress resided.
Looking at the empty palace, Qin Wan changed out of her phoenix robe and sat on the roof in casual clothes, gazing at the Golden Palace in the distance.
She was locked up like that.
I suddenly miss Qi Xiao from the evenings.
Thinking of this, Qin Wan looked up at the sunset overhead.
We'll have to wait...
"Wan'er?"
Just as Qin Wan was feeling melancholy, a familiar, gentle male voice came from inside.
"Big brother?" Qin Wan turned around in surprise.
She was filled with surprise as she looked at Ji Wenruo, who had appeared before her at some unknown time.
This was the first time Ji Wenruo had seen Qin Wan dressed as a woman...
It must be said that, just as he had imagined and hoped, she was stunningly beautiful in women's clothing, making it impossible to look away.
“Wan’er…”
Ji Wenruo stared at her blankly, his eyes brimming with affection.
Seeing this, Qin Wan interrupted his thoughts, "Brother, why did you suddenly go to the palace?"
Ji Wenruo came to his senses, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked the question.
“Wan’er, you…”
"But is it willingly done?"
Ji Wenruo stared intently at Qin Wan, afraid of missing even the slightest emotional fluctuation in her eyes.
He was deeply afraid that Qin Wan was not acting voluntarily but was being forced.
pity……
He was destined to be disappointed...
"Brother, I admire him."
Ji Wenruo's face turned pale, and the last bit of hope in her heart vanished with the wind.
In the end, it was all wishful thinking on his part...
"So... are you happy now?" Ji Wenruo looked at her anxiously.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Wan'er seemed to dislike the deep palace.
Meeting Ji Wenruo's probing eyes, Qin Wan chuckled softly.
"I won't lie to you, elder brother, I do dislike this deep palace, but..."
"But who has him here?"
"Where he is, I would gladly endure anything, whether it be the deep palace or hell on earth."
Wherever he is...
Let alone the inner palace...
Even if it's hell on earth...
She was happy to do it...
Ji Wenruo's face turned deathly pale in an instant, and his thin body staggered back several steps.
Seeing the faint sweetness and happiness in Qin Wan's eyes, Ji Wenruo tugged at the corners of her lips, a pale smile appearing on her face.
It turns out that he was just meddling in other people's business.
It turns out that Wan'er and Qi Xiao were going in the same direction.
He's overthinking it...
They mistakenly believed that Qi Xiao had forced Wan'er...
Yes, with Wan'er's martial arts skills, so what if Qi Xiao's martial arts are superior to hers?
If she is unwilling, who in this world can force her?
Thinking of this, Ji Wenruo's last trace of worry dissipated.
As long as Wan'er is happy.
As long as Wan'er is happy...
[Ri Qixiao's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 96.]
The moment the favorability rating was activated, Qin Wan's gaze paused slightly, and she glanced around indifferently.
When did you arrive?
She didn't even notice...
Or is it...?
Qin Wan seemed to have thought of something, and her complicated gaze fell on Ji Wenruo in front of her.
"Big brother..."
“…Hmm?” Ji Wenru belatedly came to her senses and looked at Qin Wan blankly.
"Qi Xiao sent my elder brother?" Qin Wan asked directly.
Upon hearing this, Ji Wenruo was taken aback, while Qi Xiao, hidden in the shadows, smiled.
So clever.
I'm growing to love her more and more.
"No..." Ji Wenruo was about to deny it when Qi Xiao suddenly stepped out from the shadows.
"He doesn't know anything. Just ask me whatever you want to know."
Qi Xiao stared directly at Qin Wan, his face and eyes filled with undisguised joy.
Clearly, he was still pleased with what Qin Wan had just said.
Upon seeing Qi Xiao's appearance, Ji Wenruo's expression changed slightly, but she was not surprised.
Yes.
He knew it very well.
The secret guards were able to bring him to Qin Wan without Qi Xiao's tacit approval; otherwise, it would have been impossible.
"You don't believe me." Qin Wan stared intently at Qi Xiao.
“I believe you,” Qi Xiao answered firmly, “but I don’t believe in myself.”
I don't believe he has such great charm that he could really keep Qin Wan.
I don't believe he has such great ability to truly win Qin Wan's heart.
I don't believe he can really make Qin Wan give up her freedom and real power at the border, so that she will revolve solely around him from now on...
He couldn't believe he had such great abilities...
Their eyes met...
Seeing the complex look in Qi Xiao's eyes, Qin Wan suddenly chuckled and stepped forward.
Under Qi Xiao's astonished gaze and Ji Wenruo's incredulous gaze, Qin Wan handed over the tiger tally.
"you……"
Qi Xiao's pupils contracted sharply.
"Do you believe me now?" Qin Wan asked softly.
Qi Xiao: "!!!"
[Ri Qixiao's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 98.]
letter!
Why don't you believe it!
Under Ji Wenruo's watchful gaze, Qi Xiao embraced Qin Wan.
"This tiger tally will always belong to you," Qi Xiao whispered, his head close to her ear.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan smiled and silently wrapped her arms around Qi Xiao's strong waist.
"What if I don't like the palace?"
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, Qi Xiao's body visibly stiffened.
Before the man's emotions could begin to surge, Qin Wan proactively added, "If I don't like the palace, would you be willing to travel with me to see the beautiful scenery and all of this land?"
[Ri Qixiao's favorability has increased by 2, currently at 100. Congratulations, host, on completing the mission.]
"good."
Qi Xiao agreed.
Watching the two embrace sweetly, Ji Wenruo smiled sadly, turned around and left silently.
At the same time, the sunset clouds on the horizon began to fade.
Night falls.
Qin Wan could clearly feel the pressure on her body increase.
It's out...
"You want to travel the world with him and see all the beautiful landscapes?" came the man's plaintive voice.
"Want to accompany you to see the stars and the sea?" Qin Wan looked at him with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiao curled his lip and gave a light, cold "humph".
"You're good at sweet-talking people."
"He and I were completely charmed."
As he spoke, Qi Xiao reached out and tried to push Qin Wan away...
Unexpectedly, Qin Wan did not resist, struggle, or hold him tightly.
The moment he easily pushed her away, his embrace suddenly fell silent. Qi Xiao's thin lips tightened, and deep displeasure filled his heart.
[Ye Qixiao's favorability decreased by 2, current favorability is 92.]
I'm so jealous...
That's jealousy...
Just as Qi Xiao was surrounded by a strong aura of displeasure, his vision suddenly went dark, and his lips felt hot and numb...
Qi Xiao's tall body stiffened almost imperceptibly.
She...
"The stars and the sea belong to you, and so does our wedding night, okay?"
A simple sentence struck Qi Xiao like a bolt from the blue, making him freeze and his pupils contract sharply.
She! She! She!
Qi Xiao's favorability increased by 5, current favorability is 97.
"You...you have no shame!!!"
Qi Xiao had been holding it in for most of the day, his androgynous, delicate face turning bright red.
He stared wide-eyed at Qin Wan, his eyes filled with a mixture of shyness and annoyance, which was quite endearing...
