Chapter 668 - 668: Powerful Allies

When Su Cheng returned from court, he was blocked by Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou.

The two of them charged out like bandits, scaring him so much that he almost drew his saber.

“It’s you.” He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his son and daughter’s faces clearly.

“Shh…” Su Ergou gestured for him to keep quiet. He turned around and looked at the reception hall. He lowered his voice and said, “Dad, keep your voice down.”

Su Cheng looked confused. “Why are you so sneaky?”

“Is the Protector Duke back?”

The two great women asked in unison.

Su Cheng’s hair stood on end and he immediately covered his mouth.

He gave his daughter and son a look.

The two of them understood.

The three of them quietly hid behind the bushes at the side and squatted on the ground, looking very unsightly.

Su Cheng whispered, “Why are they here?”

Su Ergou also whispered, “They’re here to be my stepmother. Dad, which one do you want to marry?”

Su Cheng stuck out half of his head and looked in the direction of the reception hall. Afraid of being discovered, he retracted it in a second. “I can’t marry either of them.”

Su Ergou said bravely, “It’s fine. I’m not afraid of being tricked or beaten up. Dad, as long as you like it. At most, I’ll move to my sister’s house.”

Su Cheng slapped him on the head. “The last sentence must be your main point!”

He missed her sister so much!

Su Ergou touched his head resentfully. “Who asked you to cook so badly?”

Su Cheng exploded and whispered, “I don’t cook anymore! Your grandfather made the meals!”

In order to make up for his many years of regret, Qin Canglan actually washed his hands and cooked for Su Ergou personally. He even burned the kitchen a few times.

Su Xiaoxiao reminded them rationally. Her chubby finger poked their shoulders. “Hey, can you not digress?”

Su Cheng coughed lightly. “I never thought of finding a stepmother for the two of you.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Undergarment…”

“Cough, cough, cough!” Su Cheng choked.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “In the future, when Ergou and I get married, you’ll be alone. It’s quite pitiful. Ergou and I think it’s good to find someone to take care of you.”

Su Ergou nodded.

They would always remember their mother in their hearts, but this did not mean that they wanted to see their father die alone.

It had not been easy for their father to raise him and his sister. Many people had come to propose marriage, but their father had rejected them. They were old now and did not need to be taken care of. It was time for his father to plan for himself.

Su Cheng sighed. “The two of them… are indeed difficult…”

One was the Princess of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the other was the Empress Dowager. He would not be allowed to marry either.

It was impossible for Emperor Jing Xuan to let the military power fall into the hands of other countries. If he were to marry the Princess of the Western Jin, he could only make the entire Qin family give up its military power and go to the Western Jin to be a live-in son-in-law.

The Qin family’s army was Qin Canglan’s life’s work. How could it be wasted like this?

As for Bai Xihe, it was even more difficult.

He let out a long sigh. “Unless we create a rebellion.”

“Son, are you rebelling?” Qin Canglan’s voice suddenly appeared behind him. Su Cheng was shocked. He stood up and said, “Dad? Why are you here? No, I…”

“I understand.” Qin Canglan gestured that there was no need to say anything else. He looked at the sky above his head in pain and turned to enter the night.

Su Cheng wanted to say something but hesitated. He turned to look at his fat daughter. “What… what does your grandfather mean…”

Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands. “I don’t know!”

Su Cheng was speechless.

If Bai Xihe wanted to go back before the palace door closed, the Princess of the Western Jin would be much freer. She waved at Bai Xihe calmly.

Bai Xihe stomped her feet and said to Su Cheng, who was hiding behind the flowers, “Send me back!”

Su Cheng was speechless.

Su Cheng silently drove the carriage and sent Bai Xihe out of the residence.

The Princess of the Western Jin looked at the flowers in amusement. “Come out.”

Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou stood up.

Su Ergou thought of what his sister had said. The purple-clothed stepmother could send a wolf flying with a punch. He decisively hid behind his sister. ‘Go back to the room and do your homework first,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

“Hey, alright!”

Su Ergou had never been so enthusiastic about his homework.

He left.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Your Highness, my father has already left.”

The Princess of the Western Jin said, “I’m here for you.”

“Huh?” Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. She blinked and pointed at the reception hall in shock. “Then why did you just.. ‘

The Princess of the Western Jin admitted generously, “Oh, bully her a little.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Why did you bully Bai Xihe? What fetish is this?”

“Walk with me,” the Princess of the Western Jin Kingdom said. “I’ve been sitting in the house all day. I’ve never been so tired on duty.”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered to herself, “You know it’s tiring, but you still… Why?”

The two of them strolled along the winding path of the residence under the evening sun. The setting sun was like a pool of blood, and the sky was scarlet like silk.

The Princess of the Western Jin said, “I’m about to leave the Great Zhou. I came to look for you today for two things. You’ve avenged Moxie’s injustice, but I haven’t thanked you in person.”

Su Xiaoxiao said politely, “It was nothing. It’s nothing.”

The Princess of the Western Jin looked at the weeping willow by the lake and said, “I distinguish between gratitude and grudges. The marriage alliance between the Great Zhou and Western Jin will continue, but my allies will only be you and Wei Ting.”

Su Xiaoxiao was secretly shocked.

Her words revealed two meanings. Firstly, she could tell that they were separated from Emperor Jing Xuan. Secondly, she was on her and Wei Ting’s side.

One was Emperor Jing Xuan in the open, and the other was King Nanyang in the dark. They needed external help from the Western Jin too much.

Su Xiaoxiao said sincerely, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

These words were not said out of courtesy. They came from the bottom of her heart.

The Princess of the Western Jin nodded slightly. “We’ve cleared Moxie’s matter. In addition, I have another favor to ask of you. This is my personal presumptuous request.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Your Highness, please speak.”

The Princess of the Western Jin stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her solemnly. “I want you to treat someone for me.” “Who?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

The Princess of the Western Jin said, “Xin’er’s brother.”

“The young princess has a brother?” Su Xiaoxiao had interacted with the Western Jin for so many days and had never heard anyone mention it. The young Princess of Western Jin had never heard of it either.

The Princess of the Western Jin looked at the setting sun on the horizon. “He’s a year older than Xin’er. He’s been weak since he was young and can’t go out. Once, he secretly ran out and fell ill when he returned. He almost couldn’t be saved. After that, he was locked in the room and Xin’er rarely saw him. I had originally given up, but you cured Helian Ye. Your medical skills might really be different from other physicians.

“All these years, I’ve been glorious in front of others, but beyond all that, I’m just an ordinary mother.

“I want to save my son. I want him to live a little longer. Even if it’s only for a year, a month, a day.”

Su Xiaoxiao understood that allies were different from friends. They had resolved the political crisis of the Princess of Western Jin and reached a consensus on benefits. They were allies.

However, since they could form an alliance for benefits, they could also turn against each other for benefits in the future.

Friends were different.

After saving the son of the Princess of the Western Jin, she would become a

friend that she would never betray..
