As he spoke, the Chu Emperor took out a map and placed it on the table, letting the two of them come over to take a look.
Xu Bai and Eunuch Wei stepped forward. When they saw what was on the wall, they understood what was going on.
It was a map, and the map belonged to the Barbarian Race.
“Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this?” Eunuch Wei was puzzled.
Although Xu Bai didn’t say anything, his meaning was obvious. He couldn’t understand it either.
The Chu Emperor began to explain,” Now, the entire world is already in my hands. However, the land of the Great Yue State cannot be touched. I have already said that that place belongs to a vassal state and will be handed over to them to govern.”
” Only the Berserkers are going to be conquered. After that, someone will have to go over and take care of them.”
“In this aspect, we can’t let outsiders join in. We have to choose from the remaining members of the royal family. We need to see your opinions on how to choose.”
After hearing the explanation, Xu Bai finally understood the meaning behind it.
This meant that he had to choose someone to govern.
He looked at Eunuch Wei, wanting to hear what Eunuch Wei had to say.
Eunuch Wei coughed.” Your Majesty, this isn’t something that I should be involved in. So, even if you ask me, I wouldn’t know.””
“I’m only in charge of the palace’s internal affairs. There are other things like fighting and killing.”
The meaning was simple and clear. He meant that he didn’t want to interfere in this matter. This was your family’s matter, and it was up to you to deal with it.
Emperor Chu: ”
Even though he knew Eunuch Wei’s personality, he was still speechless when he heard Eunuch Wei’s words.
However, there was another person here.
The Chu Emperor turned his gaze to Xu Bai.
“Why don’t we let the Ninth Princess manage it?” Xu Bai pondered.”
To be honest, Xu Bai didn’t have much contact with these princes and princesses, but the Ninth Princess left a deep impression on him.
When he was born in a humble family, the Ninth Princess had never targeted him.
Therefore, at this moment, the first thing that came to his mind was the Ninth Princess.
Of course, this was just a suggestion of his own. It was entirely up to the Emperor to decide whether he would adopt it or not.
The Emperor had also said that he wanted them to give their opinions.
After hearing Xu Bai’s words, the Chu Emperor said,” Ninth Brother is indeed a talent. Whether it’s in terms of personality or talent, he’s extraordinary.”
“Zhen is thinking about Eldest Brother and Ninth Brother. Eldest Brother is still fighting at the border. Ninth Brother’s words are fine, but unfortunately Ninth Brother is a woman.”
In ancient times, it was normal to favor boys over girls.
Xu Bai cupped his hands.” Then it depends on how Your Majesty deals with it. I’ve also given my opinion.””
This sentence was straightforward, but it meant that he had said what he needed to say. As for whether he accepted it or not, it was entirely up to him.
“Your Majesty, this lowly subject has also suffered quite a serious injury on this trip, so I’ll take my leave first.”Xu Bai had also raised his opinion. He still wanted to go to the imperial family’s treasure vault, so he didn’t want to stay here.
Seeing this, the Chu Emperor knew that he couldn’t ask any more questions. He could only wave his hand and let Xu Bai leave.
Eunuch Wei did not leave. He still had something to tell the Emperor.
After Xu Bai received the Emperor’s permission, he left the room and breathed in the fresh air outside as he walked toward the royal treasury.
His footsteps were unusually light. As a steady person, he always thought that he could hide his emotions in the depths.
However, it was different now. He couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of the entire royal treasury.
The royal treasury was not far from the royal study. Xu Bai’s speed was not slow either, and he was about to arrive.
But at this moment, someone blocked his path.
Looking at the familiar woman in green in front of him, Xu Bai scratched his head in frustration.
“The Ninth Princess really knows me. She knows how to send you here. I’ll go too on account of our past relationship.”
Qing Xue stood in front of him and bit her lips.”I don’t want you to feel that I’m using our past relationship to threaten you.”
Her eyes were full of bitterness.
Today, after hearing the news that Xu Bai had returned to the capital, the Ninth Princess had sent her to wait here.
“You may not go to the”
This was the first time Qing Xue had gone against the Ninth Princess ‘wishes and told Xu Bai not to go.
She felt that no matter how famous this man was now, no matter how famous he was.
Even if this man was still the same as before, just a lowly commoner, she did not want to use her past relationship to threaten him.
Therefore, she asked Xu Bai to reject her.
Xu Bai smiled and walked to Qing Xue’s side. He stared at Qing Xue’s fair face and sized her up.
His gaze was so fixed that it made Qing Xue feel uncomfortable all over.
After a long time, Qing Xue finally bit her lower lip and looked up at Xu Bai.
“If you keep looking, I’ll dig your eyes out.”
She didn’t know why, but she was acting like a spoiled child again.
After she said this, she knew that if anyone else heard her words, they would use it to insult his highness.
“Hehe.”
Xu Bai smiled and patted Qing Xue’s shoulder, just like before.
“That’s more like it. If it was an outsider, I would have used the arrogance of a prince to make things difficult for you, but you’re not an outsider, so of course I wouldn’t make things difficult for you.”
Qingxue froze on the spot.
“Let’s go.” Xu Bai turned around and walked toward the Ninth Princess without Qing Xue leading the way.
Qing Xue looked at Xu Bai’s back and stood there for a long time before she reacted. She cried out and hurriedly followed.
