"Father." Xiqiu stood in front of the First Master, who nodded slightly and pointed to the chair opposite, "Why did you come back suddenly, is there something the matter?"
Xiqiu sat down in the chair, paused for a moment, and replied, "Yes, there is indeed something." The First Master's eyebrows slightly raised, and he sat up straight. Xiqiu continued, "The day before yesterday, the Empress summoned me into the palace, and yesterday morning I took Zhi along and went to the palace."
The First Master already knew about this, so he nodded, knowing that the matter Xiqiu wanted to discuss was certainly not this, and he focused intently on her next words.
"It's like this." She recounted the conversation she had with the Empress in Fengwu Palace to the First Master: "...and she mentioned the marriage of my eighth sister."
