“Thanks to all this, our Chu clan has to tread carefully at the s for our enemies to strike” Chu Chuyan’s voice betrayed more than a hint of worry
She knew deep down that there was no way to continuously fend off the scheainst theot careless and succumbed However, there was no other choice but to persevere
Zu An had his own doubts “I don’t get it Why do you insist on taking a neutral position? Wouldn’t it be better to choose a faction to side with? At the very least, you wouldn’t end up in this difficult position you’re currently in”
Chu Chuyan shook her head and said, “The main issue here is that both factions are equally e the victor If we pick the wrong faction to ith, our Chu clan would be left in dire straits Maintaining our neutrality ht put us in a difficult position for now, but it would work out better in the long run as long as we can hold on until the fight has been decided The winning faction would need soly embrace any non-hostile powers At the very least, this would ensure the survival of our Chu clan”
Zu An was amazed Those who dabbled in politics were definitely on a whole different level Even so several steps ahead
Yup, I should beold foxes! Hmmm, didn’t Pei Mian records a while back? I wonder which faction she’s froe came to a sudden halt And the sounds of a commotion came from further ahead With a frown, Chu Chuyan knocked on the side of the carriage and asked, “What’s happening outside?”
A guard of the Chu clan quickly answered, “First Miss, it see Master of the shi+ clan is here Many people have filled the streets, and are throwing flowers and fruits into his carriage So, the road is a little congested now”
Zu An was perplexed “Does he look like an ape or soather here to look at hie?”
Chu Chuyan smiled in amusement Chu Huanzhao stepped in to explain the situation to him “Silly brother-in-law Haven’t you heard of shi+ Kun from the shi+ clan?”
“Is he very faive htmoon City too”
Even Chu Huanzhao found that statement hard to s She rolled her eyes and said, “In your case, it’s more notoriety than fa Master of the shi+ clan is known for his good looks Have you ever heard of the story of ‘welcoe with fruits and flowers’?”
“Nope” Zu An was confused What the hell is that?
So, Chu Huanzhao launched into a ra Master of the shi+ clan has a beautiful appearance and a graceful demeanor In his earlier years, whenever he toured the streets of the capital, even old ladies would becoe, filling it up Upon hearing the story, another young e around too, only to have the woe up with spit
“That should give an idea of how good-looking shi+ Kun is I thought that the story was just a rumor, but it seeeration to me” Zu An was displeased by the excited look on Chu Huanzhao’s face
“I shouldn’t miss this opportunity I should head out to see how dashi+ng that ot to her feet and prepared to dive out of the carriage, but her older sister forestalled her
“The shi+ clan belongs to the empress’ faction It’s best for you not to come into contact with him,” Chu Chuyan rereelared at Chu Huanzhao and said, “It looks like your parents are right to constantly nag at you When will you learn to become more mature like your older sister?”
Disappointed, Chu Huanzhao sank back into her seat, her nant pout “Brother-in-law, you’re just jealous”
Zu An sat up straight “No matter how handsome he is, how could he possibly be h for you to adraced Chu Huanzhao’s cheeks She turned her head away and entle voice cae “Is Miss Chu inside? shi+ Kun from the capital wishes to meet you”
Dreamy exclamations i master shi+ would ask me out on a date like this!”
“Tsk, you should take a look at the mirror Do you think you’re worthy?”
“It’s not as if you’re at all pretty”
“Stop arguing None of you can possibly compete with Chu First Miss when it comes to looks!”
“Tsk No e the fact that she’s alreadymaster shi+’s sake!”
The surrounding discussions stoked Zu An’s curiosity He parted the carriage’s curtains a little and caught sight of a feo Huh? I expected to see some beautiful wos They don’t even co master shi+ isn’t as suave as the ruaze to the front, and what he saas so bedazzling, it al in front was a refinedhis praises for an hour straight!
Too freaking handsoe this In terms of appearance, this man was nearly a match for him However, it was known that woe how handsome a man was, so he turned away from the view outside and looked worriedly at Chu Chuyan
Unexpectedly, Chu Chuyan was as calm as the surface of a lake in winter She replied in a neutral voice, “My apologies, but it’s inconvenient for a married wo your pardon, young estured for the coach to set off
Zu An was so delighted to hear those words, he was te, he had thought that his wife treated him so coldly because she looked down on him However, it seemed she was impartial to everyone!
