Empress Wei mentioned Xie Yunling, everyone understood what it signified.
Mingzhu's expression changed slightly.
Instinctively, she gripped tightly onto Xie Yunzhen's hand.
Xie Yunzhen had long expressed his stance, he would not allow Xie Yunling to enter into a marriage alliance.
He returned Mingzhu's grip, signaling comfort.
He stated straightforwardly, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Your Majesty and Your Highness, but Yunling's marriage is for her second uncle and aunt to decide. She does not need to marry for family alliances, only to find a well-matched husband."
Empress Wei's face showed a moment of embarrassment.
She knew Xie Yunzhen was arrogant, but she hadn't expected him to dare disrespect her in such a setting.
Her heart was aflame with anger.
This couple was truly outrageous!
One seduces the Emperor.
The other publicly embarrasses her.
If she were to be led by the nose by Xie Yunzhen, once the banquet ended, her dignity would be lost!
