The Lord Protector called out to his younger brother, “Why aren’t you kneeling and paying respects to His Majesty yet?”
“No need,” Ning Xiaoyao said “Come in and talk”
Pei Yan strode into themaster of the Pei Clan, who had exceptionally pale skin and fine, exquisite features He didn’t look very ui, before he laughed coldly
“I have heard that Your Majesty is fighting with the Grand Preceptor?”
“Yeah, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao replied easily
“The Grand Preceptor holds all military power in his hands, so Your Majesty probably can’t do anything against hiht?” Pei Yan added
Slap Ning Xiaoyao felt like she’d just been slapped soundly on the face
“Your Majesty went down on your knees to y today,” Pei Yan added, “Because you have no ht?”
Slap, slap!
Ning Xiaoyao felt another invisible smack on her face
“Let this couess,” Pei Yan went on “Tao Chen, the Nine Gates Infantry Commander, is dead But Xie Wenyuan still controls the forces under his command Your Majesty needed one of Xie Wenyuan’s ene to aim for my elder brother? Otherwise, would Your Majesty even remember the existence of our Lord Protector’s estate?”
Slapslapslap—!!
Ning Xiaoyao could al up
“Be quiet!” the old est son
Pei Yan lowered his head, but a sardonic s about his lips
“Your Majesty,” the old matriarch attempted to explain “That boy is this old woman’s second son He’s surnamed Pei, named Yan, and he’s always been immature This old woman has doted on him too much and spoiled him rotten If he has caused you any disrespect, I asked that Your Majesty mete punishment”
“Mother,” Second Young Master Pei Yan lifted his head
“Still not shutting up?” the Lord Protector stepped in this time
“It looks like the second young ui remarked “His Majesty is in dire want of loyal, capable men under his command But isn’t that the case with the Lord Protector’s estate as well?”
At Lou Zigui’s words, Pei Yan’s sui never wanted to make enemies of the Lord Protector’s estate, but he couldn’t help his te Xiaoyao Does he really think His Majesty ca for their help?
“You’re not bad,” Ning Xiaoyao stuck up her thu someone as soon as you felt unsatisfied I’ll respect you as a realXiaoyao pointed at an empty chair in the hall “Let’s talk”
“……” said Lou Zigui
“……” said the Pei Clan
Did His Majestyproblems today?
Ning Xiaoyao said, “Everyone should find a seat Let’s chat while sitting down”
Pei Yan only waited until the old matriarch sat down before he found his own chair—but not the one that Ning Xiaoyao had pointed at Originally, Ning Xiaoyao was sitting in thePei Yan sit somewhere else, she ran to sit next to hie her existence
Ning Xiaoyao said, “You used the right tactic ‘If the eneive you another ‘like’”
Pei Yan was beginning to wonder whether His Majesty hadabout?
“Do you kno to fight?” Ning Xiaoyao asked next
When Lou Zigui heard Ning Xiaoyao’s question, he had a sudden inkling of what she was thinking “Your Majesty,” he said as he hurried to her side Forget about whether Pei Yan can fight or not, how is someone with an imperfect body supposed to be the next Nine Gates Infantry Commander?
“Supre Xiaoyao replied “The Lord Protector looks like an upright and honest type froainst the likes of Grand Preceptor Xie, I’rief”
Pei Yan laughed at Ning Xiaoyao’s words “Then what kind of person is suited to be Xie Wenyuan’s opponent?”
“Malicious, veno Xiaoyao said decisively “I’d say you could do it”
So I’m a malicious, veno Xiaoyao’s words
“Do you kno to fight?” Ning Xiaoyao asked again, full of hope
“I’ve practiced martial arts since childhood,” Pei Yan replied
Ning Xiaoyao nodded She’d read a few novels herself, and all the eunuchs in them had cultivated techniques fro fu, so it was possible that Pei Yan was even soh-level expert (Author: Are you sure the Sunflower Manual even exists in this world?)
Pei Yan asked, “Your Majesty is brave enough to use me?”
Ning Xiaoyao replied, “Then are you brave enough to accept the post of Nine Gates Infantry Commander?”
“If Your Majesty dares to use me, then this commoner naturally dares to accept, but…”
“Fine, then you’ll be the Nine Gates Infantry Co Xiaoyao clapped the table
Pei Yan was left completely floored Even the Pei Clan members were dumbfounded What just happened?
Lou Zigui only felt a headache co to try again “Your Majesty, this is a serious matter You can’t joke around”
The Dragon Guards were all staring at Ning Xiaoyao as well Wasn’t the Lord Protector supposed to be the new commander? Why the sudden switch?
Ning Xiaoyao pointed at her olden ht”
