As she said that, she smiled mischievously: "What's more, we've already done it, haven't we? Even if I want to go back on my word, there's no hope."

"Nonsense! How can a child's joke skills be used as evidence?" Yan Chujing glanced at Chi Xinian with dissatisfaction, but in the end he agreed with her statement and did not question her sincerity.

"Let's talk about Beiyan." Since there is no longer any barrier between the two of them, dealing with Beiyan has become the only goal at the moment. "You said before that they might misunderstand us.

relationship, and used a strategy to sow discord?"

"Yes." When it came to business, Chi Xinian also stopped joking and put on a serious look, "In their eyes, or in the eyes of more than 99% of people, His Majesty and I are just

They can be called a superficial couple.

"There are even some smart people who think that in private, we should have turned against each other.

"Under the guidance of such misjudgments, sowing discord will become the most suitable method for them to use. Because once this plan succeeds, they will not only be able to make a fuss about the specific treaty on trade between the two countries in the future.

"You can even recharge your batteries and plan to take back the sixteen northern states that were lost this time."

"That's right, if the Chi family is at odds with the royal family, the benefits they, Beiyan, can gain are indeed extraordinary." Yan Chujing nodded slightly and immediately understood Chi Xinian's inference.

However, when it came to outsiders' opinions on their relationship, he still felt irritated in his heart unconsciously: "But you said that 99% of people are not optimistic about our relationship. Is this an exaggeration?"

He frowned and looked at Chi Xinian with disapproval: "Although I had a certain purpose in asking for marriage at the beginning, I have never treated you unfairly since you entered the palace.

"I am on your side when you quarrel with others. I leave the banquet linked to status to you. You have to allocate funds to the soldiers. I will support you. If something goes wrong with the banquet, I will help you. Even if you say you don't want to

Even though an innocent person lost his life, I also arranged a way for her to leave the palace.

"I don't care about you, but at least I will respond to your requests.

"Why do those people outside say that we respect each other like ice?!"

Although it is true that he is very selfish many times, and he does do superficial things to show her, but superficial things also require effort.

He asked himself that he had fulfilled all the obligations of a considerate husband, and she had never expressed displeasure with his "care". How could so many people still think that the relationship between the two of them was bad?

"Because you had ulterior motives from the beginning." Chi Xinian spread his hands, "Preconceived notions are the hardest to eradicate. If everyone understands from the beginning that you didn't marry your wife because you like it, then whatever you do later will be interpreted as having ulterior motives.

"Of course, they also have misunderstandings about me. Even His Majesty thinks that I am a free and unrestrained person who loves freedom and cannot possibly like palace life, right?

"One has ulterior motives and the other yearns for freedom. It's strange that they can get along well."

"But..." Yan Chujing wanted to defend the relationship between the two, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he had no defense.

What Chi Xinian said... makes so much sense.

Realizing the true appearance of their relationship in the eyes of outsiders, the sullenness in Yan Chujing's heart suddenly became stronger.

Why do you think so?
