Bab 400: 399 Khan's romantic rival really came (part 2)

A group was sitting together for a meal when, halfway through eating, a guard came in to report.

"Your Grace, Siji's father has arrived," he said.

Upon hearing this, Siji stood up excitedly from his chair, craning his neck to look outside.

Li Xianyun smiled and said, "Let him come in."

The guard went out for a moment, and a dark, skinny Khitan man came in. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down without daring to look up at Li Xianyun, trembling with fear, "Greetings, Your Grace."

From a young age, he had followed his family herding in the mountains, seldom coming into contact with the outside world.

The only time he did, he ended up losing Siji.

Someone wanted to buy his sheep, so he began to negotiate the price.

After a long discussion, the man did not buy the sheep; when he turned around, he discovered his Siji was gone.

He frantically searched for him and even reported it to the authorities.

The officials took note and said they would send someone to look for him.
