"Empress Chen wants to help Empress Gu?"
Ji Ruyan sharply caught the implication in his words.
Luo Shunchen shook his head, "No, it should be said that the Monarch of Yi Country wants to come to Siyou Country. It is still uncertain whether he will help Xue Pin or not, but he will definitely not help Empress Gu."
"If he wants to come, let him come; I am not afraid of him!"
Ji Ruyan knew that if Pei Xi came, she would not be afraid of him.
If he dared to come looking for her, then she wouldn't hesitate to show no mercy, for then Pei Xi truly wouldn't deserve to be her father!
Nor would he deserve to be the man her mother had given her heart to!
"You needn't worry about Minister Zhong. Minister Zhong is loyal to His Majesty, and even if Empress Gu and the Sixth Prince want to win him over, as long as His Majesty is alive, Minister Zhong will definitely not lean towards Empress Gu and the Sixth Prince."
"By your reasoning, aren't the mother and son engaging in a futile effort?"
