“Your highness,” Qi Yan bowed every so slightly in a greeting of sorts. She had expected to hate you, she tried to force herself to feel the same bitterness and anger she felt towards everyone else in the Wei kingdom but… she couldn’t do it, maybe she felt sorry for you, maybe it was something else.

Qi Yan finally glanced up at you through lidded amber eyes, offering a fake smile of kindness. Her plan to revenge had to come first, Xiao De and the others would be avenged. She’d make sure of it.
