Chapter 1254 Accepting us as a follower family
Asking for recommendation votes
……
Su Henhan walked out of the hall slowly. Su Ningxia had been waiting for a long time. She stepped forward lightly and called respectfully, "Third Uncle."
Su Ningxia's cousin is the only surviving Soul Emperor from the once-powerful Tiger Gang.
Su Henhan's eyes moved slightly and he gave her a hidden look. The two of them walked towards the quiet side room tacitly.
Su Henhan spoke with gratitude, and slowly said: "Ningxia, thank you so much this time."
"Not only did he recommend Third Uncle to take charge of this matter, allowing me to show my face in front of the young master, but he also helped me a lot in organizing the information and condensing the report."
"If the young master has other instructions later, you must inform Uncle San as soon as possible."
Su Ningxia smiled sweetly and responded gently: "Uncle San, we are all family, why should we be so formal?"
Su Henhan's expression darkened as he recalled the past: "Back then, the Tiger Gang suffered a catastrophe. Out of more than a hundred people in the gang, only a few dozen survived."
"If it weren't for you, we would have had a hard time surviving that life-and-death disaster."
"Over the years, it is also thanks to you that the brothers of the Tiger Gang have been able to integrate into the Jinyiwei and start a new life."
Su Ningxia said modestly, "Third Uncle, you are too kind. These are all my niece's responsibilities. I owe it all to the grace and protection of the young master and the young lady."
Su Henhan nodded in agreement, feeling deeply moved: "Yes, the young master is a great benefactor of our Su family. You have been lucky to be by his side for the past few years."
"Now that the young lady has taken a liking to me and officially accepted me as her follower, Uncle San's heart is finally at ease."
Su Ningxia lowered her head slightly, a trace of tenderness in her eyes, and said softly: "Third Uncle, it is my niece's blessing to be appreciated by the young master and the young lady."
"Over the years, watching our Su family gradually recover under the protection of the young master and young lady, I feel more at ease."
Su Ningxia raised her head, mist swirling in her almond-shaped eyes. She swallowed the sob back into her throat and dug her five fingers deeply into her palms.
"But when I think of the relatives who passed away in the disaster, I still feel sad."
Su Henhan's calloused hands fell heavily on Su Ningxia's shoulders. His sword-like eyebrows trembled slightly, revealing the scar on his forehead: "The dead are gone, and the living are like this."
"We who are still alive should stand up straight and continue the Su family's legacy."
"Besides, as long as you follow the young master and the young lady, the future of our Su family will be bright."
Su Ningxia pursed her lips into a straight line, and crushed the sobs in her throat with her teeth: "Third Uncle is right, niece understands."
Su Henhan nodded with satisfaction and changed the subject: "Ningxia, your status is different now, so you need to be more cautious in your actions."
Then, Su Henhan looked solemn and spoke earnestly, "Some time ago, at that grand ceremony, the young lady appeared out of nowhere and attracted countless attention."
"As a follower of the young lady, your every move, ability, talent, and even character are all the focus of many eyes."
The high-ranking officials knew Xiao Yi's identity and background, as well as the relationship between her and His Majesty the Seventh Lord, and the deep meaning behind it.
However, when this news could reach the ears of middle-level people like Su Henhan, it subtly revealed that the Chen family was more or less fanning the flames and secretly building momentum behind the scenes, commonly known as "blowing the wind."
Su Ningxia was smart and understood the meaning of the music. She asked hurriedly, "Uncle San, will this affect our Su family?"
Su Henhan's tiger eyes sparkled, and he said in a deep voice: "Yes, it is because of you that the Su family is now officially regarded as the young lady's lineage by the outside world, and it has also attracted a lot of attention."
After that, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, he swallowed, and then said: "I received some obscure news that the master may intend to accept our Su family as a follower family."
Su Ningxia's eyes flashed with surprise, and she blurted out: "Really?"
If this is true, it will undoubtedly be a great joyous event for her personally and for the entire Su family.
Today, the Su family is merely dependent on the Chen family and integrated into the Jinyiwei system. It is only by relying on Su Ningxia's relationship with the Chen family and using its own personal connections that it contributes to the Chen family's affairs in the southwest region of Chang'an.
After all, it's just working for someone else, and everything depends on the bond between Su Ningxia and the Chen family.
But if the Su family could be officially accepted as a follower family by the Chen family, it would mean that they had obtained the formal protection of the Chen family system.
Whether it is the quality of life, resource allocation, or soul skill inheritance, all aspects will be greatly improved.
This is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the Su family to speed up its recovery and achieve family expansion.
It also means a lot to Su Ningxia personally.
Although she has now been accepted as a follower, if the Su family becomes a follower family, her identity will be more legitimate and harmonious.
Su Henhan thought for a moment and said slowly: "I think, in addition to the fact that our Su family has a certain strength, and your relationship with the young lady."
"The master may have a deeper consideration, which is to carefully build a force of her own for the young lady within the existing system framework of the Chen family."
Xiaoyi's situation is extremely special, completely different from that of Bo Xianer, Xia Qingyun, Ye Xiuxin and others.
They all have powerful maternal families to support them, but Xiaoyi was adopted by the Chen family since she was a child and has no so-called maternal family to rely on.
As for the Yang family, it is only a foster relative and cannot be compared with the real maternal family at all. Naturally, it cannot be regarded as Xiaoyi's support.
To put it bluntly, the mistress also needs practical support and people to do the work for her.
In this way, the important task of arranging power and building foundation for Xiaoyi naturally fell on the shoulders of the Chen family.
Anyway, the power that has been established is within the scope of the Chen family's own system, so it is not a problem for the Chen family.
At this time, the Su family had easily entered the vision of the Chen family's top management.
Su Ningxia is Xiaoyi's most core follower. With this close connection, the Su family is a natural choice.
Although he is in a low period, the foundation of his martial soul inheritance is still there.
The Su family is a sixth-grade initial-stage martial spirit family, which is a world apart from those sixth-grade peak martial spirit families among the top ten families.
Those families have deep roots and flourishing branches, and their sphere of influence is extensive and complicated.
The Su family is roughly equivalent to the Black Shadow Mo family in strength, but as a private force that Xiaoyi has worked hard to build, it is at the right level in the huge and complex system architecture of the Chen family.
Moreover, all forces in Chang'an City, including the City Lord's Mansion, will not resist, because they also tacitly acknowledge that the Su family has already been incorporated into the Chen family.
Even when the Su family was in a low period, Xiaoyi won over and trained them. They prospered and suffered together, and they were more caring, with a sense of belonging and loyalty.
