When Qiu Tu was here, he could help Princess Xi suppress the Wei family, but now that Qiu Tu has left, Princess Xi might not be able to keep the Wei family in check anymore.
So, when Qiu Tu named the successor, the Elders all turned their eyes to Princess Xi and Elder Wei who sat on either side of Qiu Tu.
Princess Xi looked dignified, with no extra expression. Elder Wei, on the other hand, wore a faint smile and glanced at Princess Xi with a hint of provocation in his eyes.
Qiu Tu caught both of their expressions, but said nothing.
He was Princess Xi's ally, not her father.
Even if Princess Xi might call Qiu Tu "father" in the future, there's no way he could arrange everything for her.
Thinking this, after giving all his instructions, Qiu Tu didn't say anything more. Instead, he stood and gave the main seat to Princess Xi.
