"Just let it be, Jiu, let’s not recall those old stories, as they’ve already passed. After six months, you’ll need to practice kungfu nicely to go through that Dark Forest. Shall I help you get a master? I know of a good kungfu master in the city, I can invite him…"
"No!" Gu Xijiu chimed in, "I know my kungfu ability and I also know how to practice it. So, I don’t have to trouble you, general. Please go back."
Gu Xietian had no choice but to go back.
When he got back to his yard, he recalled that he actually wanted to talk about something else but had forgotten after being scolded.
He actually wanted to ask for Gu Xijiu’s favor to intercede with the emperor for the sake of Rong Yan and Gu Tianqing.
After all, Gu Xijiu was no longer the same. The emperor valued her very much and cared for her more than a princess by gifting her many things; he even called her into the palace to ask about her recent progress and the like.
