"Duan General?" Yue Rujing raised an eyebrow and thought for a moment. He was certain he had no ties with the Duan Family. On the contrary, due to past battles between the Duan Family and Lingnan, there was quite a bit of animosity.
He gave a half-smile that didn't reach his eyes as he looked at the young lady from the Duan Family. "Miss Duan, who might you be looking for at the courier station?"
"Looking for you." Duan Xiaomei replied bluntly. "His Majesty said you'll be marrying into our Nanzhao for a political alliance. He thinks that our Duan Family in Nanzhao functions similarly to your Yue Family in Zhuzhao: military lineage, a fitting match."
The Emperor of Nanzhao had originally instructed Miss Duan to handle the matter more tactfully, perhaps through some orchestrated "chance encounters" to approach Yue Rujing. However, being a straightforward person, she decided to head out at the crack of dawn to the courier station and lay everything bare immediately.
