Chapter 33: If I leave, ill be emperor?
Grand Preceptor Xie was starting to get annoyed by all the chirping sparrows tonight By the time he refocused on the issue at hand, he saith a start that Song Jin had stood up froround Ho could this be?!
Ning Xiaoyao was as tired as a dog to begin with After treating Song Jin's poison, she was now as tired as a dead dog and plopped on the ground Froar beans and tossed theth quickly when sofor poison treatment Grand Preceptor Xie backed up a few steps, still in shock His first thought was that there was a problem with the person who had released the poison s Yu's side and turned into one of her lackeys?
Song Jin didn't knohy he could move all of a sudden, but there was no tilared coldly at Grand Preceptor Xie before stepping forward to shi+eld Ning Xiaoyao behind hi hi Xiaoyao sitting on the ground and felt his heart quiver Hastily he asked, ”Your Majesty?”
Ning Xiaoyao ar beans as she waved a hand at him ”I'm over here, ah”
Hearing her speak, Lou Zigui felt reassured His vision shi+fted to Grand Preceptor Xie, who'd brought along high level experts in both archery and concealed weapons But without Grand Preceptor Xie's command, they didn't dare to aze and suddenly smiled
”His Majesty and Supreme Commander are well and safe Now I can set my cares at rest”
Coldly, Lou Zigui replied, ”We've troubled Grand Preceptor to worry The only fortunate thing tonight was that His Majesty was unhurt”
Grand Preceptor Xie s unhurt is theSupre to destroy our Yongning, so you have to take care of yourself”
Lou Zigui nodded ”Grand Preceptor's instruction is apt”
Ning Xiaoyao stayed on the ground as she asked the falcon on her shoulder, ”How co to each other? Aren't they supposed to bite each other to death at first sight?” Instead, they were standing across fro on?
The little gyrfalcon first ad, ”All you hu Xiaoyao fell silent This comment seemed to make sense She actually had no rebuttal for it
By now, Grand Preceptor Xie had spoken up again ”His Majesty was long aware of proble the capital's northern barbarians in one net, he could only wrong Supreme Coments have all been caught, Supre a traitor anymore” Here, Grand Preceptor Xie cupped one hand in another and raised it before his chest in obeisance ”I offended Supreme Commander much in the past I hope that Supreme Commander won't blame me”
Oh my God!
Ning Xiaoyao's hands shook It felt like tenaed this old 's hand supporting Lou Zigui was shaking as well Grand Preceptor Xie was supposed to be an intellectual scholar renowned for his Confucian values But he was just a dayrfalcon flapped his wings and cried, ”Awoo, awoo, awoo, Xiaoyao, let me eat him up!”
”… …” went the people present This falcon could howl like a wolf?
Ning Xiaoyao hugged the gyrfalcon to her chest This old guy had so many subordinates that they'd kill the bird before he even flew in front of the old 's hand and looked at Grand Preceptor Xie with a smile that even reached to his eyes He was aWhen he didn't s intent that scared people off But when he did smile, it was as if a painter had added extra color to the corners of his eyes with a rush The scene evoked that of spring breezes for ten li and flowers blooht profusion
Ning Xiaoyao's heart skipped twice She knew that Lou Zigui was good-looking, but he'd never truly s Xiaoyao never knew that so flowers–not just one, but a field of them!
Grand Preceptor Xie was s as well, but his hands were clenched into fists He knehy Lou Zigui was s Because he'd placed all the blame on the Northern Hu to justify hi his failure this tiambler, he would've lost all his fa's hand and sloalked to Ning Xiaoyao's side before half crouching to speak in a low voice ”This subject invites Your Majesty to return to the palace The Northern Hu spies have already been captured, so Your Majesty has no need to put yourself in danger anymore”
Ning Xiaoyao asked, ”Would there be those who escaped?”
Lou Zigui replied, ”If there did, the nuh Ants can't shake a tree, so Your Majesty needn't worry”
Ning Xiaoyao blinked Though she didn't knohy this ht so little of ants, she realized that they really had no way to shake large trees His words weren't wrong (Author: The two of you aren't talking about the sa, okay? o(╯□╰)o)
”Your Majesty,” Lou Zigui extended a hand towards Ning Xiaoyao She placed her right hand in Lou Zigui's palm, but didn't really let the other pull her up Supre!
After standing up with her own strength, she asked in a soft voice, ”Are we really leaving?”
Lou Zigui nodded He lowered his head to glance at Ning Xiaoyao's hands By now, they'd turned into two dusty claws, but a glance showed that its owner enjoyed a high position and lived in comfort Would a martial arts practitioner have hands like these?
”There's still soXiaoyao didn't want to leave She hadn't saved them yet, so how could she?
Lou Zigui asked Song Jin, ”Are you well?”
”I' Jin hastened to reply
”Have the ui said ”Let Shadowthunder escort the Northern Hu men to the justice courts with Grand Preceptor Xie and interrogate theht”
Song Jin orried ”Then wouldn't the Grand Preceptor…?”
”He won't,” Lou Zigui was certain ”This is the red-light district Even though the shops are closed, news spreads fast Xie Wenyuan wouldn't dare to try any tricks” When he was painted as a traitor, the people were ready to eat him alive Faced with that kind of public senti universal condemnation?
Song Jin replied in the affir, but she dawdled and didn't want to leave How could she abandon so many of her companions here?
”You can't bear to leave the grand preceptor?” Lou Zigui asked
”……” said Ning Xiaoyao She'd rather throw that old man to the zombies as a meal!
