He’s now in soone’s hands; if General gives him the label of being disobedient, Gan Yuan could throw him into a military court, making him spend his life in prison.
Spending life in prison or returning to continue serving Gan Yuan as a loyal navy officer is not a difficult choice. General Yuri certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to choose the latter.
Therefore, he very respectfully raised his right hand and gently held the hand of the noble princess in front of him.
"It’s my honor to relieve the princess’s worries, to relieve the country’s worries!"
Gan Yuan smiled, withdrew her hand, "On behalf of the state and the people, I thank you and your navy for all you have done."
"Rest assured." General Yuri straightened his body, "The navy has already headed to the northwestern seas and can arrive at the latest by tomorrow. I will fully follow your arrangents and cooperate with the operations of other troops."
"Very good." Gan Yuan nodded with a smile, "Helen, arrange a guest room for the general to have a good rest. Tonight, I will host a banquet for the general."
"Yes!" Helen imdiately stepped forward, "General Yuri, please!"
Giving a slight bow to the few people, General Yuri followed Helen out of the reception room.
Turning back, he walked to the two brothers again. Gan Yuan smiled gratefully at Huangfu Qi.
"Thank you!"
"How will you thank ?" Huangfu Qi asked with a smile.
The question stumped Gan Yuan for a mont, but she quickly regained her smile after just a second of hesitation.
"How do you want to thank you?"
Huangfu Qi glanced at Huangfu Jue, who stood beside her, and gave her a suggestive wink, "You know!"
Before Gan Yuan could react, Huangfu Jue had already gently embraced her shoulder, leading her towards the reception hall’s exit.
"Don’t mind him!"
"Hey!" Huangfu Qi imdiately stepped up to catch up, "Is this how you act as a brother? I ventured into the lion’s den alone and barely escaped alive. Just let hear you call ’Brother’ once, you won’t lose a piece of flesh..."
Huangfu Jue continued walking out the door with Gan Yuan without stopping, responding with just two words.
"Boring!"
Quickly taking two steps, catching up to the two, Huangfu Qi walked backward, keeping pace while speaking.
"Littleyuan, you be the judge..."
Before finishing his sentence, Huangfu Jue interrupted him again.
"Sister-in-law!"
Huangfu Qi rolled his eyes at him, "She’s younger than , why call her sister-in-law?"
"I’m older than you!"
"You have the nerve to ntion a few minutes; if we average our ages, I’m still older than you both." Huangfu Qi flirted a smile at Gan Yuan, "Isn’t that right, Littleyuan?"
Gan Yuan smiled, "If that’s the case, should we also include Xiaotang?"
Huangfu Jue returned a victorious look.
Huangfu Qi shrugged, "Alright, you two win, two to one, I can’t compete. Speaking of which, where is Xiaotang?"
"He went back to the country with mom," Huangfu Jue explained.
Huangfu Qi nodded, "That’s good. I ca in a hurry and didn’t have ti to get the little guy a polar bear. Otherwise, the kid would say Uncle broke his promise. Since Xiaotang isn’t here, I’ll go take a bath first. Where are your clothes, let borrow a set."
Rushing over from Northern Europe, he headed directly to Arthur’s navy fleet, so naturally, he didn’t bring any luggage.
Huangfu Jue raised his right hand, and the assistant outside the door imdiately jogged over.
"Take the Duke to the guest room upstairs, and also bring him a set of my clothes."
