As long as Xie Limo was around, Yun Bixue had all the energy to do everything. If he was not around, she would feel as though her soul had been sucked out of her body.
With Xie Limo’s encouraging words, Yun Bixue’s face glowed radiantly, and the gentleness in her eyes was mesmerizing.
A thought suddenly popped into her mind, causing her brows to twitch as she said, “Limo, what would happen if the An and Jiang family collapsed at the same time?”
Xie Limo said somberly, “The capital is different from Ning An City. The capital has the imperial family who is still in control. As long as the imperial family is still around, even if both the An and Jiang families were wiped out, the capital would not devolve into chaos, and neither would the noble families.”
Yun Bixue’s eyes glimmered as she replied, “So that means it’s actually easy to knock down these families?”
Seeing the sparkle in Yun Bixue’s eyes, Xie Limo could not help but pinch her cheeks as he said, “Don’t think of things too simplistically either. The noble families in the capital are all a bunch of old foxes and have too many tricks up their sleeves. The An and Jiang families are only falling because they did not keep their guard up.”
Yun Bixue pursed her lips and said, “At the end of the day, they still think that they’re high and mighty. However, witnessing the plight of the An and Jiang families would surely cause the rest of the noble families to be on high alert.”
Hearing these words from Yun Bixue, a glittering dark glow crossed Xie Limo’s eyes as he said, “They would definitely be on high alert and take preventive measures. They will surely weed out the vermin in their households during this time to cleanse their internal personnel chain.”
A light flashed across Yun Bixue’s mind as she clapped her hands and said, “Limo, this is a great opportunity for us. We should seize this chance to send our own people in.”
Since he already told Yun Bixue about his motives in the capital, he would naturally not hide all other things from her.
Yun Bixue’s eyes twinkled as she said that. She stared at Xie Limo happily as he chuckled and said, “I have already sent people in.”
Yun Bixue exclaimed before shrugging her shoulders and saying in disappointment, “You would always think of things a step ahead of me.” She felt that her intelligence was still mercilessly suppressed by Xie Limo. He was truly a master strategist.
“Don’t be disappointed. You have already been doing well. You could already think of this point the moment I spoke about it. That’s very good already.”
Yun Bixue bit on her lip and said sadly, “You don’t have to console me.”
Seeing how cute Yun Bixue was being, Xie Limo could not help chuckling again, his chest heaving slightly from laughter.
Yun Bixue glared at Xie Limo reproachfully as she said, “Look, you’re still laughing at me.”
Xie Limo raised his eyebrow as a glittering glow filled with gentleness and indulgence flashed across his eyes. “My wife is so funny, so of course I will laugh.”
Yun Bixue stretched out her hand to cover Xie Limo’s mouth so that he would stop laughing.
Xie Limo was in a great mood. He grabbed Yun Bixue’s hand and pulled her over in an instant, making her sit on his lap.
Xie Limo hugged Yun Bixue by the waist and cajoled her. “I won’t laugh now, alright? Cheer up. There are some things only you can do, just like the garden party. You are the one they invited, not me. You are able to do this, but I won’t be able to.”
Yun Bixue thought about it and felt that he was right. She lowered her head and kissed him on the cheek as she said, “Okay, don’t worry. I will definitely do my best to win over and take control of the noble families without putting up a fight.”
Xie Limo’s eyebrows twitched as he asked gently, “How exactly will you do that?”
Hearing Xie Limo’s tone, Yun Bixue became serious. She thought deeply for a while before she said, “I think I should first take over control of the garden party before using it to extend control over the noble families. It would be best if the heirs to the royal families are all at the garden party.”
