Pei Zhongtian, who was sitting at the top, paused slightly when he heard this, and finally understood the real purpose of Liu Chunjiang's visit.
It turns out... that he came for the princess?
In fact, the Pei family and the Liu family had no previous contact, but after all, the other party was a top family in Canglan, and Liu Chunjiang came to visit in person, so he still had to give him face.
I heard that even the Canglan royal family wanted to be polite to the Liu family. At this time, Emperor Canglan came to witness the wedding ceremony and brought Liu Chunjiang and others with him. It was not difficult to see the status of the Liu family.
What's more, the other party's words were sincere and his attitude was polite. He was really...
But the point is, the focus of this matter is not on him!
Pei Zhongtian stroked his beard and considered:
"I can understand Brother Liu's mood, but to be honest, our Pei family is only able to survive today because of Miss Ye's help..."
Liu Wenfei, who came with Liu Chunjiang, was stunned when he heard this sentence: "Who?"
Pei Zhongtian smiled and explained: "Oh, Miss Ye, she is the princess appointed by the Emperor."
Liu Wenfei's heart skipped a beat and he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
How come...this one also has the surname Ye?
Ever since he came out of Qiuling Desert, he had never heard of this surname. Every time he heard it, he would think of those extremely unbearable scenes.
Pei Zhongtian glanced at him and asked: "...What, is there any problem?"
Liu Chunjiang immediately winked at Liu Wenfei. Just when he was talking about the critical moment, why did he suddenly lose control?
Liu Wenfei finally came to his senses and said quickly: "No, no, it's the Ye family... It seems to be quite rare. Among the many aristocratic families in the Xingyao Empire, there seems to be no such family..."
Pei Zhongtian smiled clearly: "Indeed not. You are new here, so you don't know something. Miss Ye is not actually from the Xingyao family."
But so what, the talent and strength she showed in the hunting competition were amazing.
Even among those children from aristocratic families, who can compare to her?
In Pei Zhongtian's view, Ye Xiyue's background is not her disadvantage, but rather highlights her excellence.
So when he mentioned this now, he didn't care, but felt a bit proud of it.
Liu Chunjiang and his son exchanged glances.
Naturally, they have heard about Princess Xingyao's background, and this sentence is just confirmation.
but--
How could such an amazingly talented young alchemist really have no background?
It was probably just external rhetoric, and there must have been some guidance from an expert later on, and this was also their destination today.
Liu Chunjiang Road:
"General Pei, to be honest, that's exactly why we came here today. That...Miss Ye, I wonder who she studied under? She must be an unusual person to be able to teach such an outstanding disciple, right?"
"Master?" Pei Zhongtian was stunned for a moment.
He knew that Ye Xiyue was a student of Nanshan College and studied under two elders.
Because Elder Xuanhai is Pei Qingyu's master, he also knows something about it, but he has not heard much about the other one.
Why do you think Liu Chunjiang means this...
"Brother Liu, could it be that he wanted to——"
Liu Chunjiang chuckled: "Miss Ye is the future Princess Xingyao. Of course we don't dare to bother. We just hope to meet her master. I am very grateful."
Pei Zhongtian suddenly realized.
It turns out that when they came today, their real target was not Miss Ye, but—her alchemist master?
