The mention of military affairs immediately brought Wei Ting to her mind.
His voice was ice-cold as he asked, "Are you thinking of him?"
Ji Qingwu shook her head vehemently. She didn't mean that at all. "I want to explain things to him as soon as he returns."
Zhao Mingyan seemed reasonably satisfied with this answer and gave a slight nod.
"And what do you plan to do then?"
Ji Qingwu took a small step back. "I haven't thought it through yet."
'Sometimes, Zhao Mingyan really wanted to pry open her head and see what was inside.'
He said coldly, "Then start thinking now. Think it all through, clearly. Otherwise, you're not leaving."
Ji Qingwu lowered her head, mulling it over for a moment before speaking slowly, "It's pointless to think about it now. If Wei Ting doesn't agree, it doesn't matter what I come up with."
'I can only take it one step at a time.'
But Emperor Wu Su clearly had no intention of proceeding with such caution. He said, "Wei Ting must agree."
