Chapter 965
Huo Zhao smiled and nodded.
The princess smiled happily: "That's wonderful! I liked the princess the moment I saw her. With the princess by my side, I'm already looking forward to the trip to Luoyang."
Although Huo Zhao agreed, they couldn't play today.
The sixth prince and his wife weren't in a hurry; they said goodbye and left.
After seeing them off, Zhong Jie told Huo Zhao to go back and get some rest.
"Do you think it's okay to send Zhaozhao?" Zhong Jie asked, a little worried.
The Sixth Prince and his wife came to our door, it couldn't have been just to ask Huo Zhao to take them out for fun, they must have had ulterior motives.
Huo Zhao is very important to the Huo family, and Zhong Jie is extremely worried about letting such a precious child face those people.
"Don't worry," Huo Yue said, "This is our own territory after all. Unless the Sixth Prince has a death wish, he wouldn't dare to do anything to Zhao Zhao."
Most importantly, Huo Zhao was right. She had never practiced martial arts, so if the Sixth Prince wanted to do something to her, he wouldn't need to put in any effort. Rather than having her hide, she could just walk up to the Sixth Prince and see if he dared to do anything to her.
Huo Yue couldn't help but sigh that she was indeed his daughter.
Regardless of their abilities, they're really tough.
"Besides, I've got Lao Liao following me around the whole time, nothing will happen."
Liao was a fierce general who had always followed Huo Yue, and he was also one of the two fierce generals who had helped Huo Yue kill the Sixth Prince. His strength should not be underestimated.
With him by her side, Zhong Jie could indeed feel a little more at ease.
The negotiations between these two countries will certainly involve overt and covert matters, but there will also be no shortage of covert and informal dealings.
As a daughter of the Huo family, Huo Zhao had never been to the battlefield in her early years, but now, she had no intention of hiding behind the crowd.
For the people of Southern Chu, Huo Zhao was an excellent entry point.
They thought that Huo Zhao had never been on the battlefield and therefore was ignorant of the world, which led to the current situation.
"Trust Zhaozhao. She was raised by the Crown Prince's Grand Tutor, so she won't be bad."
That sounded quite plausible, but Zhong Jie just twitched the corners of her mouth.
The Crown Prince's Grand Tutor also said that in the past, it would have been life-threatening for Huo Zhao just to get her to study.
The couple exchanged a glance and sighed silently.

The next morning, Huo Zhao got up and tidied himself up when a maid from the second gate came to report that the princess had arrived.
"The Sixth Prince didn't come?"
The maid nodded: "The gatekeeper said that the princess came on her own."
"knew."
Jixiang felt uncertain, so she took a deep breath and said, "It's alright, it's alright. If it's just the Crown Princess, we're not in such a passive position."
It wasn't that she was timid; the sixth prince was tall and muscular, and looked like a ruthless person. Even if the sixth prince stood there without moving, Jixiang was still afraid.
In comparison, the princesses were much prettier, so they weren't as afraid.
Huo Zhao glanced at her helplessly: "Alright, let's hurry up and go. She is a prince's consort, we can't keep her waiting."
"yes."
The three of them, master and servants, hurriedly left and headed towards the front hall.
The three of them didn't waste any time on the way, and when they arrived, Huo Zhao was slightly out of breath.
"Your Highness, Princess Consort, you have been waiting for a long time."
The princess looked at her and smiled slightly: "Since we're meeting in private, there's no need to be so formal. I'm a few years older than you, so if you don't mind, you can call me 'elder sister'."
