292nd Break: Aid

The reason why Qiu Shisi declined the Xibei princess's offer was that this problem is related to jianghu and not the government. Thus, they can't involve the Xibei general, who was also granted the title of marquis, even if the Xibei princess is here in Fenghui.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. Huichen will solve this as soon as possible so you can return home!" Qiu Shisi assured her.

The Xibei princess didn't force it. "Well, I actually want to stay outside for a while longer and don't want to go home yet…" she said. Qiu Shisi's refusal saved her from contacting the An family who will definitely go to fetch her.

Qiu Shisi who didn't know he was used as a scapegoat for her to not return yet. "…" so she was actually just being courteous earlier… he thought.

Qiu Shiwu glanced at her but didn't say anything else. He turned to his father. "We have to try and send a message to Huichen." He spoke. "Also, to let mother and sister know that we are safe." He added.
