Qin Yuan's lips curved slightly, yet her face held confusion as she asked, "Has my lord made up his mind?"
Gu Jinghui coughed lightly a few times again and said, "I do have this thought, but I still want to hear your opinion."
Qin Yuan inquired, "I wonder what the marquis' considerations are?"
Marquis Gu reached out to straighten her hairpin, saying, "Today, I heard Mr. Songshan mention that Sima Yi feigned illness twice; the first time because he couldn't see the situation clearly, he declined Cao Cao's appointment. I think this is somewhat similar to my current situation."
"How so?"
Qin Yuan sat up straight in Marquis Gu's arms, her gaze intensely watching his sharp and handsome profile.
