"Also, I heard that Xiyue is the one who holds grudges the most, but she also remembers favors the most!"
Li Qingluo smiled slightly and said, "That's good."
What she wanted most when she came to the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion today was Miss Xiyue's "favor".
She didn't dare to repay the favor, but sometimes, the hand of imperial power was more effective than any sword.
