Hearing this, the young Emperor couldn't help but glance at Ji Youzhi. "You seem to have a high opinion of this young girl!"
Ji Youzhi nodded without hesitation.
"Of course. There aren't many fourteen-year-old girls, or even boys for that matter, who would think of separating from their clan to establish their own household. Even fewer can seize the opportune moment to turn the situation in their favor," Ji Youzhi said quietly.
He shook his head regretfully and sighed, "It's a pity. This young girl is destined for a short life."
Once he had spoken, he felt the young Emperor's icy glare.
Ji Youzhi quickly shut his mouth. He couldn't understand what he'd just said that had incurred His Majesty's displeasure.
While the hushed conversation between Ji Youzhi and his companions didn't reach others' ears, Xiaosuisui heard it clearly.
