"He agreed?" Ye Lu asked in surprise.
"That's right." Chen Gaoxuan repeatedly examined the letter, feeling a sigh of relief deep down.
For this was not only an opportunity for him to understand Ye Qiu better, but also because their collaboration meant their strength together would surely surpass that of the King of Xichuan and Prince Donghe. Not only would it solve the current predicament, but in the future, his only opponent would be Ye Qiu, raising the chance of success significantly.
"When the time comes, you'll go with me," Chen Gaoxuan said, looking at her.
"Me?" Ye Lu hesitated, feeling somewhat anxious, "When I escaped from home, my elder brother immediately declared that I'd been killed by mountain bandits. He won't acknowledge me. I'm afraid I might ruin the Prince's affairs."
"Don't worry, after all, you are siblings by blood. Even if he doesn't acknowledge you, there's still the child in your belly, which can reassure him about our cooperation."
