She has given her heart to Xue Haoling in this lifetime and will never fall in love with another man.
By becoming the empress, Qin Muyan promised to treat the Xue Family well, allowed her to worship Xue Haoling privately, excused her from sharing his bed, and did not require her to attend to him.

The Marquis Xie's Mansion also needed her as the empress to continue the glory of the Xie Family.
