Such a rough man suddenly beca delicate and sensitive in his thoughts.
Ye Qichi smiled, "As the Military Governor of Yuzhou City, you will have frequent opportunities to be in the presence of majesty. In the future, when you co to Xun City, we will et often."
Pang Nan nodded.
Yet he still seed sowhat reluctant to leave.
"Mr. Pang. During the banquet earlier, it was not convenient for to speak bluntly. Now that we are alone, there are so things I want to reiterate to you."
"Please instruct , Miss Ye."
"Yuzhou City is an important city of the Daxuan Kingdom, and to the south is the Cainan Region, which then borders the territory of Loulan Country. For the sake of harmony between the two countries, during the Supre Emperor’s ti, there was an understanding reached that no military forces would be stationed along the border, and the city gates of the border were open to the people of both nations. However, friendly relations have lasted for many years, and although Loulan has been paying tribute all these years, it is unavoidable that with ti, alliances may break. I implore you, Mr. Pang, to ensure that the gates of Yuzhou City are steadfastly guarded."
"Miss Ye ans to suggest, you suspect that Loulan has so sche against Daxuan?"
"After all, Loulan is a small country. If they wish to attack and conquer Daxuan, it would be like an egg striking a rock. What I worry about is, Loulan could beco a shelter for certain individuals!"
Pang Nan had not yet grasped the implication.
Gu Xingchuan understood what Ye Qichi ant.
Ye Qichi was suggesting that if the Prince truly initiates a coup, he might very likely utilize the military power of the neighboring countries.
Loulan would be his first consideration.
The Cainan Region is the gateway for Loulan to open their city gates, and once Loulan moves through Cainan, to reach the Imperial Palace in Xun City, they must pass through Yuzhou City.
Therefore, Yuzhou City is a critical checkpoint.
Once it is well guarded,
the Prince will have no way to avail of Loulan’s strength.
"Say it more clearly." Seeing that Pang Nan did not understand, Ye Qichi opted not to beat around the bush, "In the future, guard the city gate well, do not allow any suspicious persons to enter at will, and only take orders from Xiao Jinxing."
At this mont, Pang Nan understood and imdiately expressed his stance, "Miss Ye, rest assured. The life-saving grace you showed to my daughter, and the life-saving grace you and the Prince offered to the citizens of Yuzhou City, I will never forget for as long as I live. I will definitely guard Yuzhou City well and serve the Prince for my entire life."
"Your words are enough," Ye Qichi nodded.
Many things,
when they truly happen, Pang Nan will understand.
"Mr. Pang, it’s late. You should go back and rest."
"Miss Ye, won’t you sleep yet?"
"I’m waiting for Xiao Wu to return," Ye Qichi said.
Indeed, she was waiting for Xiao Wu tonight.
But she planned to wait for him in her room.
After all, the nights of late autumn were still sowhat cold.
"I just saw Lord Wu leave the residence."
"Mm, I sent him to do sothing," Ye Qichi reminded again, "Mr. Pang, you should rest early as well."
"Then I shall take my leave," Pang Nan said respectfully and departed.
As soon as Pang Nan left,
Gu Xingchuan couldn’t help but speak, "How did you co to think that the Prince might exploit Loulan?"
"Xiao Jinsen has always been closely linked with Loulan. If he has any designs, he would naturally make use of Loulan, which the Emperor least suspects, catching everyone off guard."
"How do you know that the Prince has a close relationship with Loulan?" Gu Xingchuan was still puzzled.
"There’s a lot more that I know," Ye Qichi said with a proud smile, "You will find out eventually."
Gu Xingchuan scrutinized Ye Qichi.
Ye Qichi faced him with tranquility.
"Ye Qichi, you really are full of surprises," Gu Xingchuan couldn’t help but express his admiration.
Sincere admiration.
Ye Qichi stretched languidly.
She was rather indifferent to Gu Xingchuan’s evaluation of her.
Being transported into a book was never about seeking reverence from thousands.
She rely wanted one thing: freedom.
The freedom to live during an era of peace and prosperity.
"Princess!" From afar,
Xiao Wu called out to her.
Ye Qichi turned around and saw Xiao Wu hurrying towards her.
In his arms was unmistakably a small child.
Ye Qichi’s lips curled into a light smile.
She quickly approached him.
Gu Xingchuan also hurriedly followed Ye Qichi’s steps.
"Princess, I have brought the infant back," Xiao Wu hurriedly presented the child in his arms to Ye Qichi.
The child was asleep at the mont.
Her face was not clearly visible, but she seed to be sleeping soundly.
Soft and adorable to the touch.
Ye Qichi reached out her hand, "Give her to ."
Xiao Wu promptly handed the child over to Ye Qichi.
The child.
Naturally, was the little friend that Ye Qichi picked up in Hezhou City.
Being too busy in Yuzhou City, she really had no ti to bring the child back, but as they were departing for Xun City tomorrow, naturally, she had to bring the child along.
