"What are you talking about?"

Yun Si said softly, but Pei Jingyao's fingertips trembled suddenly. The corners of her lips curled up into a bitter smile. The look she gave the man was even more helpless and pitying, and her voice softened unconsciously.

"Who told you that I want to marry Heng Yu? What I want to tell you is that the emperor has agreed to overturn the case of the Pei family. You and Ying'er will both be restored to their original places of origin, and then marry to our Northern Frontier as the eldest son of the Pei family."

Yun Si's words fell softly, and Pei Jingyao raised her eyes as soon as she said the first sentence, looking at Yun Si in disbelief. His fingertips holding the corner of his clothes were trembling, but he seemed not to feel it. He just stared at Yun Si, as if to confirm the truth of her words.

After a long time, Pei Jingyao's eyelashes trembled slightly and finally came back to his senses. He opened his mouth slightly, and the tip of his tongue circled his lips and teeth for a few times before speaking, "But..."

Yun Si looked at Pei Jingyao, patiently waiting for him to speak.

"Hasn't His Majesty already granted the marriage of Princess Hengyu to my wife?"

"The Emperor does have this intention, but I don't agree. Jingyao, why are you so determined that I will marry him? Could it be that I am such a fickle person in your mind?"

Pei Jingyao's voice became a little excited when she heard this, "No! Jingyao has never thought of my wife as such a person."

Yun Si leaned forward when he heard this, so that he could be closer to Pei Jingyao. She looked at the man's flustered and complicated expression, and her face became more serious.

"Pei Jingyao, do you want me to marry him?"

This was the first time that Yun Si called his name so formally. Pei Jingyao's heart trembled, and he looked at Yun Si and his breathing became heavier unconsciously. What did my wife mean by this? Looking at the serious woman, Pei Jingyao didn't dare to speak easily.

He thought for a long time before whispering, "Jingyao hopes that my wife can get what she wants."

Pei Jingyao has always hoped that Yun Si can get everything she wants in Daliang, and it would be best if she can keep him by her side. That is his prayer hidden in his heart.

Yun Si was so angry that she laughed at Pei Jingyao's wish come true. She paused for a few seconds and asked again seriously.

"I'll ask you one last time, do you want me to marry him? If you do, I will marry him. In the future, let him be your companion. You won't be alone in Northern Xinjiang, right?" Yun Si paused, she looked at Pei Jingyao and said the last sentence.

"I only plan to marry a prince of Northern Xinjiang, you decide for yourself."

After that, she stood up from the chair. She needed to go outside to get some fresh air, so that Pei Jingyao wouldn't say anything messy to make her angry.

Seeing that Yun Si was about to leave, Pei Jingyao didn't care about her inconvenient legs, and supported herself on the edge of the bed to pull her clothes. His eyes were slightly red, and his heart was even more sour.

"My wife, my wife!"

Yun Si stopped after only two steps. She turned around and looked at the man with half of his body sticking out. She resisted the urge to hold him in her arms to comfort him, and just looked at Pei Jingyao motionlessly.

Pei Jingyao held on to the last glimmer of hope and asked, "Has my wife met Princess Hengyu?"

Yun Si was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
