Ye Jiushang openly returned to the Ninth Lord’s Estate with Xue Fanxin.
The guards outside the Lord’s Estate went forward and bowed when they saw Ye Jiushang. “Greetings, Your Highness.”
“She will be the mistress of this place from now on. Her orders will be equivalent to mine. Do you understand?” Ye Jiushang said to the guards before walking toward the door.
The guards shouted in unison, “Greetings, Your Highness.”
“All of you can get up.” Xue Fanxin felt that this was too high-profile and was not used to it. She wanted to say more to them, but she realized that Ye Jiushang had walked away. She caught up to him and said, “Ah Jiu, why did you announce my identity? I’ll be in a lot of trouble now. When those people found out that I was the Ninth Consort in the palace, all of them looked like they wanted to skin me alive.”
She had just come to the Mystic Realm and Imperial City. Without doing anything, she made a bunch of enemies. How could she play happily in the future?
She did not want to waste her time on such meaningless scheming.
“This is something that will happen sooner or later. The earlier you face it, the better. If anyone comes to make trouble for you, you can rely on me to ‘do whatever you want.’ Even if you poke the sky of the Ye Dynasty, I’ll take care of it for you,” Ye Jiushang said. His words were arrogant, not taking the Ye Dynasty seriously.
Xue Fanxin felt a lot more at ease for some reason. “Ah Jiu, what’s your relationship with the Nanling Empire, the Heavenly Saints Empire, and the Ye Dynasty? Why are you the Lord and Imperial Uncle wherever you go?”
“The rulers of the Nanling Empire and the Heavenly Saints Empire are decided by the Ye Dynasty. They are considered small vassal states. To be precise, they are just a way to manage the secular world. The entire Tongxuan Continent is ruled by the Ye Dynasty, and I am the Ninth Lord. What do you think my relationship with these three countries is?”
“It’s a little chaotic…”
No wonder the royal families of the Nanling Empire and the Heavenly Saints Empire had the surname Ye. They came from the Ye Dynasty.
This should be a relatively secret matter. Not many people from the Nanling Empire and the Heavenly Saints Empire knew about it, but the Ye Dynasty should be aware of it.
Even the emperor of the Ye Dynasty was afraid of Ah Jiu, let alone small vassal countries like the Nanling Empire and the Heavenly Saints Empire.
If even the capital of the Tongxuan Continent was afraid of him, wouldn’t Ah Jiu stand at the peak of this continent?
This identity was indeed powerful.
“You don’t have to think too much. From now on, stay in the Lord’s Estate. If anyone dares to cause trouble for you, you can deal with them as you please. Let’s go, I’ll take you somewhere.” Ye Jiushang pulled Xue Fanxin’s hand and brought her through beautiful courtyards, long corridors, and gardens to a bamboo forest.
“Ah Jiu, why is there such a large bamboo forest in your estate?”
How was such a large bamboo forest still in the residence? It was simply the wilderness.
