On the other side, Bai Yuhao's group of four succeeded in destroying Loong Ao's plan to seize the Spirit Treasure and returned back in triumph. After returning to the Yi City's base camp, they calmly spent two days.0
Bai Yuhao finally had time to accompany Liu Yunxuan and her son, doing his duty as a man and a father.
However, this kind of heavenly joy was broken on the third day after Bai Yuhao, and a piece of news that came from the Ji Family surprised Bai Yuhao and the others. Especially Ji Wushuang, after receiving the news, her delicate face was completely cold, as if everything within ten meters of her would be frozen.
And this news was precisely the result of Loong Ao's decree to betroth Ji Wushuang to the fourth prince.
It was because everyone knew that if Ji Family agreed to marry Ji Wushuang to the Fourth Prince, it would also mean that the future of Ji Family would be closely linked to that of the imperial family. And as the current representative of the imperial family, which was also Acting Dragon Emperor, Loong Ao, naturally was also able to control the future of Ji Family as well.
Anyone with a little brain would be able to tell that Loong Ao had made a brilliant move, because this way, Ji Family would also fall into a dilemma. It was even more passive than refusing to let Bi Jian bring the Queen back to the Palace City.
The most important thing was that any decision made by the Ji Family, who was one of the second largest families in the Holy Dragon Kingdom, could potentially affect the fate of the entire Holy Dragon Kingdom. If Ji Wushuang were to marry into the imperial family, then Loong Ao, who had given the order to facilitate the marriage, would definitely benefit from it and be able to stabilize his future.
So, he wanted to force you and Ji Family into a corner, and let Ji Family make the final decision. If you don't want to marry the Fourth Prince, then either publicly go against the imperial family, or you can only hand over your sister and let Loong Ao retract his orders. But no matter what, no matter what kind of decision it was, to Ji Family, it would be of no benefit at all. This Loong Ao's intentions are truly not simple! " Because he knew that if he really allowed Loong Ao to arrange the marriage between Ji Wushuang and the Fourth Prince, then Loong Ao would be able to control the Ji Family in disguised form. However, if Ji Family refused, Loong Ao would definitely make use of this opportunity to create trouble. And this time, it was not as simple as just sending a peerless expert with only Majestic Emperor Stage to speak in a friendly manner.
"If it's really not possible, then I won't be the successor of Ji Family. Breaking off all relations with Ji Family, what about granting a marriage without bestowing a marriage, I, Ji Wushuang, have never been manipulated by anyone …" Back then, she had left home because of the matter of bestowing the marriage. Worst case scenario, she would leave the Ji Family again, as she originally did not have too much feelings towards the Ji Family, and back then, returning to the Ji Family, it was also Bai Yuhao's death that changed anything to her. But now, Bai Yuhao did not die, so she did not have any feelings for the Ji Family anymore.
"Big brother, what do you think?" Bai Yuhao slightly shook his head when he heard Ji Wushuang's angry words. Jen asked Ji Yulin.
"This move of Loong Ao's has really placed our Ji Family in a dilemma! No matter if he agreed or not, his Ji Family would fall into a passive state, which was the most troublesome. Although our Ji Family is not afraid of fighting against the imperial family, the pros and cons are far from being that simple. Unless we can turn passivity into initiative, otherwise, the situation will only get worse and worse. " Ji Yulin analyzed calmly.
"Captain Ji, you're right, if Ji Family wants to pass this trial, I'm afraid it won't be easy!" Liu Cheng also nodded his head and said with his thick eyebrows raised.
"May I say something?" At this moment, Cao Qinglan, who had been standing quietly to the side, suddenly spoke up.
Bai Yuhao and the rest immediately turned to look at Cao Qinglan.
"Although Loong Ao has already ordered for the marriage, this is only one-sided. As long as Ji Family does not reject, Loong Ao would not have any excuse to deal with Ji Family." Cao Qinglan pointed out the crux of the matter.
"Even if Ji Family can remain silent for the time being, it will definitely not be for long." Ji Yulin said.
"We don't need to drag it out at all. Since Loong Ao wants to use this marriage decree as an excuse to deal with Ji Family, then Ji Family can also be dealt with in the same way." Cao Qinglan said with a faint smile in her beautiful eyes.
"Qinglan, what do you think?" Bai Yuhao knew that Cao Qinglan had been Leader of Cao Family for ten years, and if she didn't have some skill, it was impossible.
"Sister Qinglan, quickly tell me!" Ji Wushuang couldn't help but ask.
"Ji Family can be announced to the outside world as a way to publicly choose a husband so that various powers can be invited to participate in the competition. Of course, this includes the royal family. Therefore, there would definitely be many forces supporting the selection of Ji Family. With this way, even if Loong Ao had already ordered the marriage ceremony, he would still not be able to win against the will of the masses. If Loong Ao was determined to oppose it, then he would definitely be met with criticism and suspicion from all the forces. I think that based on Loong Ao's current situation, he probably doesn't want to become the target of public criticism. Cao Qinglan then voiced her thoughts.
When everyone heard her, they immediately looked at each other, because Cao Qinglan's suggestion was indeed a contingency plan. At the very least, they would be able to grasp some of the initiative in a passive situation.
"Miss Qinglan's idea is not bad. No matter what, this is better than giving away the marriage proposal. At least we still have a chance!" Ji Yulin nodded in agreement.
"Miss Qinglan is indeed the former patriarch of Woodgod Kingdom, the number one clan in Woodgod Kingdom, this Bu Yingqi is truly wonderful!" Liu Cheng also couldn't help but praise him.
"Godly General Liu, you're too kind!" Cao Qinglan said humbly.
"Although this idea is good, but how can we ensure that Loong Ao will not succeed? Even if it's the competition for the betrothal marriage, Loong Ao will definitely send out those powerful characters from the royal family and they will be hard to deal with. " Ji Wushuang's eyebrows were slightly raised as she considered the proposal.
"As long as you set a limit, such as your age or strength, this is also within reason. After all, Wushuang is still so young, you can't possibly let her marry Spirit Controller, who can even be her grandfather at that age, right? " Ji Yulin suggested.
In the end, after some discussion, in order to guarantee that the competition this time will have enough influence, and be able to gather the support of all the forces within the Holy Dragon Kingdom, and in order to prevent Loong Ao from finding any excuses, the competition will be limited to Celestial Master Stage and below the strength of the Majestic Emperor Stage. In other words, as long as it is Spirit Controller who has the Celestial Master Stage and the Celestial Master Stage, he can participate in the competition this time around.
