"The two of you are…"
When he saw Ji Chang and Ji Fa, Su Hu was stunned.
He found the two of them familiar, but he couldn't remember their names.
"I'm Xi Qi Ji Chang, this is my son, Ji Fa.”
"So it's Heber."
Su Hu hurriedly stood up to welcome him.
Xi Qi was different from the others. He was a feudal lord with a large army and countless soldiers.
Therefore, he couldn't neglect the reception.
"What is Uncle Xi here for?" Su Hu asked.
It was true that he and Xi Qi didn't have much communication or interaction. If other people from Jizhou came to visit, or even people from the neighboring Jizhou came to visit, it would make sense. After all, they were neighbors, or rather, they were in the same place.
However, in Xi Qi, a place that was completely unrelated.
This puzzled Su Hu.
Ji Chang cupped his hands and smiled.
"When we were in Xi Qi, we heard of Lord Marquis's virtuous name and admired him for a long time. We wanted to visit him long ago, but we never had the time.”
"Similarly, this child of mine has been following Lord Marquis's example since childhood and has admired him for a long time.”
"Heber, you flatter me." Su Hu was naturally happy to receive such praise.
However, as the Marquis of Jizhou, Su Hu wasn't someone to be trifled with.
At this moment, he quickly guessed the purpose of Xi Qi and his son's visit.
It must be because of his daughter.
Su Daji.
"The two of you wish to see my daughter?”
Su Hu asked without hesitation.
"Lord Marquis is half right," said Ji Chang.”
"What do you mean?"”
Ji Chang explained," We have indeed heard of your daughter's name and wanted to meet her. However, more than anything, we are here for Lord Marquis.”
Without pausing, Ji Chang continued,"
"I heard that Zhaoge City became like this because of your daughter?”
Su Hu didn't say anything, but his gaze turned cold.
"Lord Marquis, don't be angry. Let me analyze first."”
"Regardless of whether the truth is like what the rumors say, and it is because of your daughter, the outside world already thinks so. This means that the king will also think so.”
"Now that something has happened in Zhaoge City, His Majesty can't spare his hands for the time being. But Lord Marquis, what do you think His Majesty will do to Lord Marquis if he does?”
These words caused Su Hu to be stunned.
Then, his expression suddenly changed.
"No matter what the truth is, the king has lost face. If that was the case, the King would not have intervened. After all, the person who could make Zhaoge City fall into such a state was not someone they could afford to offend. But... What if it's fake?"
He looked at Su Hu, his gaze suddenly becoming serious.”
At the start, Ji Chang had only been testing the waters, but Su Hu's reaction had confirmed that he had no idea.
This was probably an accident.
Su Hu's expression was uncertain, but he didn't say anything.
At this moment, Ji Chang smiled, thinking that his chance had come.
"This is the reason why we came. I, Xi Qi, am willing to form an alliance with Lord Marquis. Even if the king blames me in the future, Xi Qi is willing to advance and retreat together with Lord Marquis!”
"This…"
Su Hu was taken aback.
After all, in his heart, what Ji Chang said was not without reason.
However, he still felt that something was wrong.
"Of course, in order to express our feelings, I, Xi Qi, am willing to marry Lord Marquis!”
"Hmm?"
Su Hu narrowed his eyes.
When Ji Chang saw this, he hurriedly explained," It's not a marriage as Marquis imagined. It's just that I want my son to acknowledge your daughter as his godsister.”
"Allow me to consider this matter."
In the end, Su Hu didn't reject Ji Chang directly.
Even though he felt that Ji Chang was right, he still felt that something was wrong.
After coming out of the hall, Su Hu, who had been racking his brains to no avail, decided to discuss this matter with his daughter.
Su Daji's room.
When Su Hu entered, he saw his daughter making some needlework. Judging from the shape, it was probably for a man.
Su Hu shook his head.
A grown woman can't be kept!
"Daughter, can you tell me what kind of person the man you like is?”
"Ah?"
At this moment, Su Daji realized that Su Hu had entered.
When she heard the question, her pretty face couldn't help but blush.
Ye Chen's figure appeared in her mind.
"He... He's probably a god, right?"
Whether it was his style of speech, knowledge, or temperament, Ye Chen was excellent.
Up until now, Su Daji had never seen a man who could compare to Ye Chen.
There were many men in Jizhou who could not even compare to Ye Chen's nephew and his nephew's entourage.
(Tongtian, Zhao Gongming: Nonsense! How can they compare to us!)
"Deity?" Su Hu was stunned.
"Father, why are you asking this?"
At this moment, Su Daji suddenly became shy. She lowered her head and her face was extremely red.
If Ye Chen were to do it again, he would have been stunned by such an alluring gesture.
Su Hu only smiled." It's nothing. Xi Qi's Xi Bo came today and said that he wants his son to acknowledge you as his godsister. What do you think?"”
"Acknowledge me?"
Su Daji was stunned.
"I don't have a problem with it. But why are they doing this?”
Then, Su Hu told them about what had happened.
Su Daji nodded." Since you think it's right, then just do it. I don't understand these things, so I won't participate too much."”
Su Hu nodded. After some consideration, he decided to agree.
After all, he couldn't think of any disadvantages.
However, what they did not know was that Zhao Gongming, who was passing by, had seen what happened here and informed Tongtian.
When he learned of this matter, Tongtian was clearly stunned.
"What's wrong, Master?" Zhao Gongming was puzzled.”
"This…" Tong Tian said in shock," I never understood why your Master Guild would let her go. But now, I understand. This is a big move by your grandmaster!”
"Ah?" Zhao Gongming was puzzled.
Tongtian explained," In Xi Qi, it was decided by the Heavenly Dao to prosper. Even the Battle of Gods Investiture was destined to revolve around Xiqi and the Shang Dynasty. However, Heavenly Lord Yuanshi had made preparations in advance and ordered many of his disciples to join Xiqi. We have the upper hand. We can't find any opportunities for the time being. Moreover, there are many disciples in the Shang Dynasty.”
"Now, Xi Qi and his son are married to the Su Residence. In addition, your grandmaster is related to our Jie School. Doesn't this mean that our relationship with Xi Qi is actually closer?”
"I have to say, Uncle's move is really brilliant!”
