Luo Xuan clapped his hands vigorously: "This is great!"
Everyone:?
"I have always felt that only when a woman is in charge of the family can the family be harmonious and long-lasting. The High Priest's move will truly benefit the people of my border town!" Luo Xuan sighed.
"It's precisely because I'm alone that I'm in such a tight spot right now!"
Everyone: ...
Shen Ruoxi: ...His father sells off his property at every turn, it's already good enough that he doesn't have to sleep on the street.
After talking about serious matters, the high priest and the commander left first, leaving the space to Shen Ruoxi and Luo Xuan, the father and daughter.
"Dad, your daughter can't go back with you for the time being." Shen Ruoxi spoke first.
Luo Xuan was very surprised: "Why? Hasn't the cooperation been negotiated? Let Dad handle the rest. You are unfamiliar with this place and it is inevitable that you will feel uncomfortable. It is better for you to go back with Dad."
"Besides, the family reunion banquet is coming soon, and the protagonist is not here. Daddy will be in a difficult situation!" Luo Xuan deliberately made things difficult.
Shen Ruoxi saw through her father's thoughts at a glance. He felt sorry for her and was worried that she would suffer here.
“Dad, you clearly know that the real protagonist of this family recognition banquet is not me, but Azhou.” Shen Ruoxi revealed with a smile.
Luo Xuan curled his lips and said, "That kid is really amazing. He has those old guys all around. They are just short of swearing a blood oath to become sworn brothers with him."
There were even some old guys who wanted to marry their granddaughters to that guy. Fortunately, the emperor decisively refused, otherwise he would not have spared that guy!
Mentioning this, Shen Ruoxi also thought of something: "Has the Qin family discovered any clues? Has the Gu family and the Qiao family made any moves recently?"
Luo Xuan also straightened his expression and shook his head: "There has been no movement for the time being. The only one who knows your identity, Prince Qin, has had his tongue cut out and his limbs crippled by the commander. It is impossible for him to reveal your identity."
"Qin Bin is dead, and the entire Southern Camp has been annihilated. Without these two backers, the Qin family has completely withdrawn from the stage of history."
Shen Ruoxi nodded. This was also the purpose of her planning this gambling game.
The Qin family and the Gu family are like sharp claws and smart brains to the Qiao family. Now that the Qin family is destroyed, it is equivalent to destroying the Qiao family's claws. This is a great joyous event!
What remains is to defeat the Qiao and Gu families one by one.
"My dear daughter, please come back and help Daddy. You know, Daddy is old, and there are many things that he doesn't think through as well as you young people." Luo Xuan persuaded Shen Ruoxi again.
Shen Ruoxi also wanted to go back, but she couldn't feel at ease until Chaos was sealed.
This concerns whether Wanwan can live past the age of eighteen and grow up healthy.
"Dad, there's something I can't explain to you, but I have to stay here. After the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, your daughter will definitely come home!"
Looking at Shen Ruoxi's serious expression, Luo Xuan knew that his daughter had made up her mind and did not try to dissuade her anymore.
The man sighed and said, "Okay, Dad will wait for you, but you must remember to protect yourself no matter what. If you need Dad's help, write a letter and have someone send it to me."
Shen Ruoxi smiled and responded: "Okay, my daughter will remember what Daddy said, and Daddy should also take care of himself."
"Please also ask Daddy to give Azhou a message for me, telling him that I will definitely bring him good news."
After hearing the end, Luo Xuan nodded reluctantly: "Okay, okay, Dad will remember it. I don't know where that kid got his blessing from."
After seeing Luo Xuan off, Shen Ruoxi returned to Baiyu Village and saw from a distance the commander standing there with a frown on his face, talking to the guards.
"Commander, we have searched everywhere but have not seen any trace of this person. We think he has hidden in the mountains."
"Send someone to seal off all the exits down the mountain. Don't let even a fly escape!"
Seeing the guards accept the order and leave, Shen Ruoxi stepped forward.
The commander was surprised but also a little happy: "The princess didn't leave? I thought that the fate between us Baiyu people and the princess ended here."
Shen Ruoxi nodded: "I heard your voices from afar just now, is anyone missing?"
The commander snorted coldly, "Who else? How dare that brat Zhang Dabao team up with others to deal with my Baiyu people? If I catch him, I'll make him pay!"
Zhang Dabao is missing? Shen Ruoxi was also a little surprised.
"However, since he dared to run into the mountains, he shouldn't think he can get out again."
"With Lord Cheng Huang in charge in the mountains, even if he could escape from him, he would still starve to death. It can only be said that he deserved it!"
Shen Ruoxi's eyelids twitched, and she always had a bad premonition.
"Your father left, so why are you back?" The commander brought the topic back to the topic.
Shen Ruoxi raised her eyebrows: "I'm used to living here. I want to stay for a few more days. Would the commander not welcome me?"
The commander laughed: "Come on, my sister can see that you are here for Awan. Although I don't know what your relationship is, it is definitely not ordinary."
Shen Ruoxi didn't explain. This was the way it was when you were with smart people. The more you explained, the more flaws you would find.
"The princess saved Awan before, and she's a person with a sense of justice. So my sister and I aren't worried that you'll hurt Awan or our Baiyu people. We consider you our friend."
"Thank you." Shen Ruoxi raised the corner of her lips.
The commander looked up at the starry sky and said in a deep voice, "Since we are friends, I will give you a piece of advice. Five words: destiny cannot be violated."
Shen Ruoxi's eyes flickered slightly: "Why do you say that, Commander?"
The commander's eyes were distant, as if he wanted to see something clearly through the clouds.
"Your master, that old pervert, had the crazy idea of changing fate, but he was struck by lightning and lost all his spiritual power. His hair turned white overnight. The look in your eyes right now is exactly the same as the old pervert's back then."
Shen Ruoxi: …
Why does it sound like she's saying that her eyes are like those of an old pervert?
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. Don't worry, you can stay in Baiyu Village as long as you want. No one will chase you away." After saying that, the commander waved his hand and strode away.
Shen Ruoxi looked towards the place where the commander had just looked up. Among the layers of clouds and mist, there seemed to be an old Taoist with an immortal look, who looked quite like her master.
It turned out that the old master's low spiritual power was caused by his reckless change of destiny.
She also didn't know what secrets her master had that she and her fellow disciples didn't know about.

When the sun rose again, Baiyu Village returned to its former tranquility.
It’s just that Awan’s training is getting more and more arduous. Shen Ruoxi now only meets her a few times a week, and every time she meets her, it is almost always A Chong who receives her.
But A Chong seems to be in a bad mood these days.
Silently making tea, silently passing tea, silently listening to Shen Ruoxi speak, in short, not saying a word.
Shen Ruoxi was a little suspicious whether Ah Chong had recovered his chaotic memory in advance, but she also felt that this state was not quite right.
Finally, I couldn't help my gossipy spirit, so I asked curiously while eating melon seeds, "What happened? Did they have a fight?"
