She had already discussed it with Emperor Xue Ye several times, and he had more or less agreed.
For a country without a Titled Douluo, Spirit Hall was a powerful ally. At the same time, it could also bring ruin to the empire. But Emperor Xue Ye knew that if the Heaven Dou Empire didn't make some changes soon, it would eventually be devoured by the Star Luo Empire, even without Spirit Hall.
"Xue Ke?"
Su Wen finally understood why that girl kept looking at him.
She was probably Princess Xue Ke of the Heaven Dou Empire.
She was even younger than Tang San.
Had her Martial Soul not awakened yet?!
Feeling his gaze, Xue Ke instinctively lowered her head.
Her little face was flushed red. It was hard to tell whether she was frightened or embarrassed.
"Let's discuss this another time!"
Bibi Dong suddenly spoke.
"Right, right. They're still young. There's no need to rush!"
Emperor Xue Ye chimed in at just the right moment.
But inside, he felt a little disappointed.
The Holy Son and the Pope were on good terms. If the marriage alliance succeeded, the Holy Son might become the Pope in the future, and Xue Ke could help Qinghe manage the empire.
But the royal family valued its dignity above all else. Since Bibi Dong had said so, he wouldn't shamelessly press the matter.
Xue Qinghe was somewhat displeased. If Bibi Dong had only nodded at that moment, the matter would practically have been settled.
She could have saved many years on her efforts to infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire.
After Xue Qinghe sat back down, she noticed Su Wen staring at her.
She trembled slightly, then put on a practiced smile.
When the banquet ended, Su Wen and Bibi Dong left the palace together.
