Zhu Xiuxiu said this, and Huo Xing’Er nodded along.
"That’s right, we can go pick up Xiaosuisui now."
Ji Youyuan, without a second thought, got up to leave.
Seeing Ji Youyuan stand up, the Emperor quickly asked.
"Sect Leader Ji, what’s this about..."
"Now that the matters with Yunhang have been settled, I should go bring my Suisui ho!
Your Majesty!
The matters of defense and troop movents are left for you, the National Master, and the commanders to handle."
After saying this, Ji Youyuan did not give the Emperor a chance to react and walked out without looking back.
Huo Xing’Er and Zhu Xiuxiu promptly got up to follow.
The Emperor’s hand was left hanging in midair, not coming down for a long while!
He just watched as the three mbers of the Ji Family left like that.
The group of commanders in the Assembly Hall were even more clueless, looking at the entrance of the Ji Family with puzzled expressions as if they were befuddled monks.
And then, still in a daze, watched them leave!
Upon stepping out of the Assembly Hall, Huo Xing’Er and the others t Yun Kuo and Xie Pan’Er, who had just escorted citizens to Yugu Pass from Yunhang.
"Young Master, Second Madam, Third Madam!"
Seeing them, Xie Pan’Er was very excited and quickly bowed in respect!
Ji Youyuan gave a slight nod towards her, greeted, and walked on.
Zhu Xiuxiu happily pulled Xie Pan’Er aside to ask about everything that had happened since she left the capital.
Huo Xing’Er, on the other hand, gazed at Xie Pan’Er several tis, rubbed her eyes, blinked, nodded knowingly, and then walked away.
"Rest assured! We just saw the battle report from Yunhang; Suisui is fine. Mo’Er has already been captured, the people under him are either dead or fled, and the remaining have surrendered. Suisui is doing well now, staying in Yunhang, and we’re just about to go pick her up!
Since you can’t fight, there’s no need for you to co with us. Just stay here and wait; we’ll be back soon, and then we’ll all return to the capital together."
Zhu Xiuxiu really liked Xie Pan’Er; she has wanted to matchmake Ji Youzhi with Xie Pan’Er from the start. During this trip to sea with Xiaosuisui, she hoped so sparks of love might fly between Xie Pan’Er and Ji Youzhi.
"By the way, you and Old Seven have been together all this ti," asked Xie Pan’Er out of curiosity.
Xie Pan’Er was initially excited, wondering if the two of you were... "
Zhu Xiuxiu’s face extended into a knowing smile, then suddenly froze.
"Third Madam, please don’t joke about and Young Lord Seven anymore. Between and Young Lord Seven, there is affinity but no destiny!"
"Ah... why did you say it like that? Have you and Old Seven had a falling out?
Or has Old Seven found soone else?
Did you fall for soone else? Do you not like our Old Seven anymore?"
Zhu Xiuxiu’s mind bubbled with endless guesses after hearing Xie Pan’Er’s words.
"No... it’s not that... Third Madam, please stop asking about this. Young Lord Seven said that from now on, I’m just his sister, and between us, there is only siblingly affection, nothing more. In the future, please don’t always pair with him."
Hearing this, Zhu Xiuxiu was montarily stunned, then quickly figured it out, thinking Ji Youzhi must really not be interested in Xie Pan’Er, so he directly turned her down!
"Since it has co to this, you can be a girl of the Ji Family!
Old Seven said he treats you as a sister, and from now on, you’re our sister.
If you need anything, just let know. If anyone dares to bully you, I’ll take care of them!"
Holding Xie Pan’Er’s hand, Zhu Xiuxiu spoke tenderly, "A girl as wonderful as you, if Ji Youzhi doesn’t appreciate you, then he’s blind. You’re so good, and there will be soone even better waiting for you in the future!"
