Upon hearing this, Xie Huai'an's eyebrows and eyes moved slightly. He got up and saluted to the man as a subject to his monarch: "Your Majesty, I had no intention of hiding anything. It was just that I was compelled by circumstances and didn't wish to create unnecessary complications."
The matter of his marriage to Mianmian had not been disclosed to His Majesty, yet he knew of it.
His Majesty merely smiled and invited him to sit down.
"What of marrying a wife? I can understand you. I'm just a bit curious, what kind of figure is this Miss Ruan that she could captivate you so?"
"Moreover, I heard that Miss Ruan made quite a contribution in Wuheng. Initially, when the late Emperor confiscated the Ruan Family's assets and exiled them, they survived the perilous journey of over a thousand miles and lived so brilliantly in Wuheng. It seems this woman is not simple."
"The lady is just an ordinary common woman, compelled by life, she gritted her teeth and persevered to survive."
