Chapter 3351: Chapter 3352: Just to Make Up the Numbers?
"Yes, master."
Zhe Jue responded and then turned around and left.
"What’s going on?"
Lin Caisang saw Zhe Jue come but leave quickly. Smiling at the family head, who was exchanging pleasantries with her, she turned to ask him.
"It’s time to change a batch of elders." Sui Zimo said with eyes flickering between light and dark, his voice ethereally calm.
Lin Caisang: "..."
Did her husband find new people to pit against each other again?
They’ve just set their son up, and now it’s time to change a group of elders. There’s no need to think much to know it’s a few of them.
Who could they be?
"Do you have suitable candidates?" she asked.
The elders of Sky City aren’t appointed based on a fixed number; for instance, the previous group had only four, while the current group has six.
It depends on the abilities of these elders, whether they can manage the affairs of Sky City well.
"Do you?"
Sui Zimo smiled at her and asked.
Lin Caisang: "?"
Could she say that she didn’t have any?
"I think big brother is quite suitable, along with Chushui. The two of them, one active and one still, can perfectly counterbalance each other’s temperaments." She unceremoniously sold out her big brother and younger brother.
"Hmm."
Sui Zimo thought the same, so he nodded.
Yue Chushui is originally from the Illusion Continent, so it’s acceptable for them to be an elder.
As for Lin Changhong, guarding this land for his own nephew—if he’s not willing, Zimo would make him willing.
And then there’s...
"What do you think of Baiqing?" he asked.
Lin Caisang: "!!!"
Yin Baiqing is still just a half-grown child, and yet her husband is considering them for this?
But, she had to admit, even though Yin Baiqing is still a child, their abilities aren’t small. If they could serve as an elder in Sky City, their future would undoubtedly be remarkable.
Even if they no longer serve as an elder later and return to Ziyan Kingdom to become emperor, it would make the ministers and citizens more convinced.
"Anyone else?"
"Isn’t three enough?" Sui Zimo retorted.
"Is three enough?" Lin Caisang blinked.
Was her husband planning to have their child’s three uncles each do the work of two?
"Let Shishu stay and look after our child too, that’ll be enough." Sui Zimo thought and added.
That should suffice; Shishu’s abilities are decent. With proper cultivation, they wouldn’t remain ordinary in the future.
Lin Caisang was speechless; this was truly pulling someone in to make up numbers, wasn’t it? An even more pitiful person than Yin Baiqing has finally appeared!
"You manage this, but within six months, I’m not leaving our child." she said.
"Okay, as you wish."
Sui Zimo naturally went along with his wife’s wishes.
Their child was still indeed very young, not even having a formal name yet. It was time to think about what to call them.
...
At Elder Zhu’s residence, the Sixth Elder hurried over. After being led inside by attendants, they saw their own daughter huddled to one side, not daring to speak.
"Master, Yuanyuan is still young and ignorant, please don’t be offended by her," he immediately said to Elder Zhu.
His daughter, someone even he couldn’t bear to scold, now suffered such grievances. Just thinking about it pained him. If it weren’t for the person sitting before him, a person he dared not offend, he really wanted to lash out!
"I naturally won’t stoop to her level."
Elder Zhu, smiling, cast a glance at Shen Yuan, then turned her gaze to focus on the Sixth Elder.
