"At least it can still be more at ease"
Li Shimin was taken aback upon hearing this, then smiled faintly: "But Mr. Sui is not one to value the situation over friendship. If he refuses, it's probably because he's certain that I am someone who will inevitably abandon friendship for some situation in the future... But Mr. Sui probably doesn't know"
"From beginning to end, I have never harbored the slightest hostility towards Mr. Sui"
"Even though Mr. Sui's disciples are Kou Zhong and Seo Ziling"
What does this mean?
The implication seems to be—he knew of Sui Yi from the start, and even more so, he knew that she actually protected these two people, which is why he took extra care.
In reality, the Twin Dragons are a double-edged sword. Seo Ziling is fine; although capable, he has no ambition for supremacy. Though difficult to deal with, as long as there is no conflict of interest, it's no matter, but Kou Zhong is different.
