Chapter 188 (1/2)
Chapter 188: The young ladies teaui took a step into the courtyard, so the Lord Protector braced himself and followed him inside He had never bothered with his own inner court affairs, so he didn't even knohat his daughters' quarters looked like Now he stood uneasily before the residence of the Fifth Young Miss Xie
Lou Zigui had no such qual Xiaoyao to ask, ”What happened?”
The reon Guards all perked up their ears to listen That's right, just what happened here?
”Your Majesty,” Shadowgale called out
Ning Xiaoyao was about to explain when Shadowgale's voice silenced her That's right, if news of this spreads, the effects will be terrible for Xie Duoying I've been so busy thinking of how to deal with those scoundrels that I've forgotten all about Fifth Young Miss Xie's reputation
At thisopened the doors of her residence and walked outside She wasn't wearing any makeup and presented herself to the ereen, her hair tied into a casual twist behind her head Her eyes were red and swollen, but she looked cal Xiaoyao surveyed her fro casually, beauties are beauties through and through Even without any makeup and a pair of puffy eyes, she still looks very beautiful
Xie Duoying descended the steps of her house and approached Ning Xiaoyao, before falling to her knees ”Your Majesty, this one has been wronged”
”I know, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao said ”Then what do you want to do?”
Xie Duoying said, ”This one only asks that justice be served”
Ning Xiaoyao glanced at Shadowgale She wants justice to be served, what's your opinion on that?
Shadowgale didn't look at Xie Duoying, but stood as if he heard nothing at all ThatXiaoyao understood Lou Zigui glanced at Shadowgale and said, ”You and Fifth Young Miss—”
”That there,” Ning Xiaoyao tugged on Lou Zigui's sleeve, ”It's a long story”
”I and Fifth Young Miss…” Shadowgale wanted to explain that he'd co Xiaoyao said, ”We'll talk about your affairs at length in the future, in the future”
The Lord Protector looked at the unfortunate Fifth Young Miss Xie still kneeling on the ground, then at the tall and handsoale, and couldn't help but arch a brow His Majesty andGrand Preceptor Xie are eneet involved with the Grand Preceptor's granddaughter? This really is soained consciousness by nooposition as she raised her head towards Ning Xiaoyao and broke into loud sobs
”Enough,” Ning Xiaoyao said, ”Your ladyshi+p, wait until later to cry I can pro your heart out in a bit”
”You,” Lady wang cried, ”What are you planning to do?”
Ning Xiaoyao said, ”Stand up for justice, ah What else would I do? You think I like hanging around the Grand Preceptor's estate?”
Sounds of sobbing ca suddenly recalled how Ning Xiaoyao had ordered the Dragon Guards to fetch the Xie Clan daughters and panicked Once again, she raised her voice ”Your Majesty, this wife is yourXiaoyao That's right, she's ui said, ”Did you rehter's child when you trapped Shadowgale in the Grand Preceptor's estate?”
Lady wang choked out a sob at Lou Zigui's censuring rehters of the Xie Clan arrived in the courtyard while being shi+elded by their various on Guards with swords unsheathed The young ladies' cries incited the entire courtyard into joining the extinction Ning Xiaoyao saw Lady wangheld down by the Dragon Guards to the young ladies' feet When eldest daughter saw his face, she grew stunned, while the two youngest shrieked out loud
”Do you recognize hi Xiaoyao asked
Who would ever adirls shook their heads, the ui ordered The Dragon Guards stepped forward to face the servant girls and hters They refused to budge no on Guards yelled
”Use physical force,” Lou Zigui said coldly The Dragon Guards approached the servants with swords in their hands; in the next instant, seven to eight servants fell to the ground, injured Seeing the sudden blood hters faint away in fear The sobbing in the courtyard intensified, but Lou Zigui only said, ”Kill anyone who makes a racket”
His voice wasn't loud, but filled within the courtyard Ning Xiaoyao sniffed a few tiet an aura like this? Give
Lord Protector was just thinking of the ru but misery for the people in their wake There were probably merits to those words when Cuckoo Lou was involved He really showed noand old, male or female—just who to kill, and who to spare
It was at this time that Grand Preceptor Xie was carried to the entrance of the courtyard The two little pageboys in charge of lifting his chair saw the Dragon Guards eapons drawn and blood on the ground and grew too scared to approach any closer
