The royal carriage reached the streets with Ning Xiaoyao leaning against theto peer outside She relished the sight, but the occasional gliees she saw ht It’s war a chill But what happens after the weather gets colder?
“Supre Xiaoyao asked her coees live in the palace?”
Her sudden question nearly ui fall off his horse “What did you say?” he asked after regaining his seat
“I said, let’s have the refugees live in the palace We have soXiaoyao asked
Open the palace gates to the refugees? It was uniui just shook his head “We can’t”
“Why?” Ning Xiaoyao grew unhappy “That’s my house, can’t I call the shots?”
“That’s the iui stressed back
“That right, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao said, “Where else but the palace would you find so many empty rooms?”
“None of the i the other officials to kneel in front of your gates in protest,” Lou Zigui said, going straight to the consequences instead of trying to argue otherwise
Ning Xiaoyao scratched her pale She wasn’t afraid of her kinsst them was Prince Fu, as already in jail But she dreaded Elder Li, ah
“There are still a few ui could understand her worries “Think over it a bitwill turn up”
Ning Xiaoyao fell into thought In the end, she was still poor to the extreme If only I was rich… She clutched her head in her hands Forget it, let’s not dream up impossible delusions
“Xiaoyao,” a little skylark flew into the carriage and landed on Ning Xiaoyao’s leg
“H Xiaoyao took the bird into her palm
“My napie froe Grand Preceptor Xie already knows that you and Supreme Commander went to the Lord Protector’s estate”
“Whaa?” Ning Xiaoyao was both surprised and angry Don’t I have any privacy at all! (Author: Does this have anything to do with privacy? Don’t think as you please, ah! Pah, geez!)
Cloud Petal added, “The Grand Preceptor’syou”
Ning Xiaoyao fed Cloud Petal a sugar bean as she nodded “Yep, Itailed”
“Elder Cousin Magpie’s eavesdropping on the Grand Preceptor talking to his subordinates,” Cloud Petal fanned her wings happily after eating the sugar bean “He said he’ll report to you after he finishes hearing it all”
“M out ar beans
Cloud Petal said, “Xiaoyao, can I find you in the palace to play in the future?”
“Sure,” Ning Xiaoyao stroked Cloud Petal’s little head The skylark nuzzled against her hand before pecking up a piece of sugar bean and flying off
Lou Zigui saw the skylark co that bird too?”
Ning Xiaoyao was perched at theas she looked behind them in the direction of the skylark “No,” she said casually, “That’s just Cloud Petal, one of my little pals”
“…” said Lou Zigui
“Supre Xiaoyao, “There has to be soht be?”
Lou Zigui looked behind him The streets were filled with people, so even if Grand Preceptor Xie had hidden his scouts a Xiaoyao couldn’t do it either, so she went back into the carriage and started fretting by herself As they passed by an intersection, Shadowgale ca Xiaoyao’s carriage to report in a low voice, “Your Majesty, those eight officials have already packed up their valuables and taken their families to the capital’s barracks”
Ning Xiaoyao said, “Did they really think I was after their lives?”
Shadowgale was too e—that His Majesty was borrowing a sword to cut down his enemies
“Didn’t we end up not putting up those procla Xiaoyao didn’t understand “Why did they still run off?”
Lou Zigui said from the side, “That’s how villains think Your Majesty needn’t mind them”
Ning Xiaoyao raised her head to look at the skies, before asking Shadowgale, “How big are their houses?”
“Your Majesty,” Shadowgale replied, “All of thee houses”
Big houses with nobody living in them Moreover, these people are froers and said, “I have a solution!”
Shadowgale said, “Your Majesty still wants to kill them off?”
Lou Zigui understood what she meant “You want to take over their houses?”
“I’e , her herois to the clouds “I’d be an idiot if I didn’t!”
“T-then hoe take theale had never snatched houses before, so he wasn’t sure where to start “Plaster their front doors with official notices?”
“Tsk,” Ning Xiaoyao clicked her tongue “Windy, you’re too kind to fight with the likes of Grand Preceptor, oh”
Shadowgale thought he’d never see a day where he was considered kind Despite the co him instead
