Fengyu and Xie Xun were indifferent to such petty rumors. Han Ziqi's cunning calculations fell through, and after the terms were settled, Xie Xun informed Han Ziqi that an envoy would be sent to Sannan after the new year.
Han Ziqi specifically named Xie Jue as the envoy to make the trip to Sannan.
In the Jinluan Palace, Xie Xun grew increasingly vexed with Han Ziqi's lack of perceptiveness. He had no desire for Xie Jue to have any connection with Sannan and even less intention of sending him there. After all, Xie Jue was his only blood brother. If any mishap befell him in Sannan, razing Sannan to the ground would be meaningless.
Just as he was about to refuse, his gaze met Xie Jue's. All his refusals caught in his throat, leaving him with no choice but to agree to Han Ziqi's request and dispatch Xie Jue to Sannan after the new year.
