Li Wuyu did not immediately respond to An Jing’s words, but hesitated for a moment before counter-questioning, "Does Master remember the Commandery Princess Linghe, the youngest daughter of the Prince of Pingjun?"
An Jing snorted, "She traveled thousands of miles to covet my husband, how could I forget her."
Only then did Li Wuyu reply, "Originally, I casually mentioned to her that I heard my father say Father Master never returns from war undefeated, leading her to mistakenly believe Father Master truly was invincible. Fearing the hardships of farming beside Father Master, she gave up on pursuing him and returned to the Capital; who knew Father Master would come to the Imperial Capital again, and she became very angry. She came to confront me the other day, and fortunately, my father appeared in time, or else I would have definitely received a slap from her."
An Jing now understood why the Commandery Princess Linghe had fled so quickly back then – it turned out her disciple had unwittingly given her a helping hand.
"Master," Li Wuyu suddenly sighed, her expression very solemn, "I truly hope you and Father Master could always continue , but I also can see that Commandery Princess Linghe will not let matters rest. However, if she were to marry Father Master, with her stubborn temperament, how could she peacefully coexist with you? Your days ahead would surely not be as easy as now..."
The more An Jing listened, the funnier she found it, and she also realized, "It seems you are unaware."
An Jing tapped her forehead with a curved finger, feigning dissatisfaction, "You’ve stayed in Hecheng County for so long, and you have figured out everything about your Youbao’s ancestors, yet how could you not even know that your Father Master married into my family? You’re really letting down your Master."
Married into the family?!
The King of Eternal Victory married into the family?!!!
Stunned by the news, Li Wuyu took a long time to recover, swallowed hard, and still seemed somewhat disbelieving, "Master... Father Master... Has Father Master really married into... your family?"
An Jing nodded with utter calmness.
Li Wuyu immediately overflowed with envy, "Master, you are truly blessed!"
How many men are willing to marry into a woman’s family? After marrying in, a man’s status is pitifully low, always only the useless men would choose to do so.
However, Xiao Changyi married in? But who is Xiao Changyi? He is the King of Eternal Victory, universally known for his illustrious military exploits, a great hero in everyone’s hearts in the Xiyun Kingdom, how could he be useless?
Once the news of the King of Eternal Victory marrying in spreads, it will undoubtedly declare his determination to be with his Princess An Jing for a lifetime, a couple forever! No one would think the King of Eternal Victory is useless!
And which woman does not wish to be with her husband for a lifetime, a couple till the end?
Moreover, her Master is a Stone Woman, unable to bear children with no one to succeed her, and yet the King of Eternal Victory could go to such lengths for her Master?
How could she not be envious?
Upon hearing Li Wuyu’s words, An Jing nodded in agreement, "I also think I am quite fortunate."
After envying for a while, Li Wuyu began to complain, "Master, why didn’t you tell me about this sooner? You made me worry about you for nothing."
"You’re blaming me now?" An Jing tapped Li Wuyu again, "You’re always pestering Youbao with all your questions; even if your Father Master and I did not tell you about this, I thought you’d already known from Youbao. It turns out, you’re really only concerned about Youbao’s affairs, and not at all concerned about your Master!"
"Master, Master," Li Wuyu immediately had a smile on her face, trying to ingratiate herself, "How could I not care about you? It’s just that I didn’t want to ask about you and Father Master from my Youbao; I was afraid I would accidentally reveal your and Father Master’s true identities."
