Zai Jiu would not lose out, either. As the Moon Foxes' most important Moon Empress, Mistblade would have accumulated plenty of large Curios and tools in her city for training her own kind.
Yu Xunge had even prepared for Mistblade to haggle, yet, in a rare moment of sentimentality, she actually accepted without bargaining?

"Only this can bypass a public vote.
