A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles

"My son-in-law is truly a forging genius. Look at this, if we produce this in large quantities, won’t our army be invincible on the battlefield?"

Ji Youze didn’t speak and continued to look at the defense map.

General Liu could only helplessly rub his forehead.

"Old Hu! It’s one thing for you to praise your son and daughter ten times a day, but why are you now including your son-in-law in that too?"

General Liu never expected that just one sentence from Chang Rongshun and Princess Shunhe would make Old Hu suspicious of events from over twenty years ago, leading him to Yun County.

As a result, he unexpectedly became a delighted father, gaining not only a son but also a daughter. Of course, that daughter was not his by birth but adopted. However, this adopted daughter was so capable that she tied up the sixth son of the Ji Family like a beggar and married him ceremoniously.

Now, even Ji Youze, a favored official before His Majesty, has to call him ’Uncle’!

"Heh heh! That’s because my children, from Old Hu, are talented. Did you know that my son is a scholar?

The kind who has been to Jinluan Palace. Have you ever been to Jinluan Palace?

No, right?

Let me tell you, you’ll never make it there in this lifetime!"

"Hey! You old fox, why won’t you stop?

No matter how amazing your son is, does he call you ’Dad’?

Doesn’t call you ’Dad’, right?

You keep saying the sixth son is your son-in-law. Does your daughter acknowledge you?

She’s never even seen you, right?"

Old Hu: "..."

This truly hits hard!

On the day of Xie Pan’Er’s wedding, Ji Youcheng sent a fast horse to deliver a letter to Ji Youze.

The Emperor also sent an urgent message over eight hundred miles to Ji Youze.

The essence was that if he could wrap up before the imperial wedding, he should do his best to conclude so he could return early for his wedding.

If he couldn’t end the war, he should come back midway, attend the wedding, and then head to the frontier.

After reading the letter, Ji Youze couldn’t help but smirk and directly sent a reply to the Emperor.

The gist was that he could definitely return, whether the war was resolved or not, but once he returned, he would become the Emperor’s eighth brother-in-law and asked if he was ready to change the way he addressed him.

Upon receiving this reply, the summer fruits no longer tasted good to the Emperor.

Little Suisui was busy catching bad guys outside with Princess Lianchun for over half a month. That day, while they were throwing a corrupt official into jail and interrogating him, thunder suddenly rumbled outside.

Little Sui suddenly lifted her head and quickly began counting on her fingers.

Princess Lianchun sensed something was off when she saw her actions and quickly asked.

"What’s wrong?"

Without answering Princess Lianchun, Little Suisui turned and left the prison, then looked up at the sky.

Princess Lianchun followed her gaze skyward, mumbling to herself, "Strange, the night looks so good outside, why is there sudden thunder?"

"Huh! Suisui, do you see a star flickering on and off in the northeastern direction?

Is it rising or falling?"

Little Suisui didn’t answer Princess Lianchun. Instead, she jumped onto the roof. Princess Lianchun was stunned and quickly asked, "Where are you going? Wait for me!"

The night air echoed with Little Suisui’s anxious voice.

"I’m going back to the Ji Family!"

"Why do you suddenly need to go back to the Ji Family?"

Princess Lianchun stood there mumbling and then suddenly smacked her forehead, "Could something have happened at the Ji Family? I’d better hurry back to take a look!"

In the dark alley behind the Ji Family in the Capital City.

A few people in black huddled together, speaking softly.

"We’ve confirmed that the lady of the house is likely to give birth today.

The Ji Mansion will surely be in chaos then. We’ll seize the opportunity to sneak in, kill Princess Zhenzhu, and also murder Xie Pan’Er to blunt the sharpness of the Emperor of Da Han’s youngest!"

These few whispering folks were none other than those sent by Wei Heng of the newly established Dongyue court to find Dongyue’s National Heirloom Seal since its founding.

Throughout their search, they heard that Dongyue’s Heirloom Seal had fallen into the hands of the Emperor of Da Han.

Initially, they planned to sneak into the Da Han Imperial Palace to steal the Seal, but later, they received a secret order from Wei Heng to kill Xiao Zhenzhu and Xie Pan’Er, framing perhaps the Da Han royal family.

To estrange the Emperor of Da Han from the Ji family brothers.

The Dongyue agents had been shadowing the Ji family for several days. Initially, they thought it wouldn’t be easy to kill Xiao Zhenzhu, after all, Xiao Zhenzhu had an Enchanting skilled in ’eyebrow martial arts’ by her side, and Xiao Zhenzhu herself was also proficient in martial arts.

So, despite many attempts, they found no way to succeed.
