Chapter 208 (2/2)
Lou Zigui took this chance to step out ”From what this subject understands, Pei Yan has trained with the Lord Protector's subordinates and is an intelligent, talented man This subject believes that Pei Yan can shoulder the post of Nine Gates Infantry Commander”
”Supre Xiaoyao addressed the hall ”Let the Lord Protector and Pei Yan come in”
”His Majesty summons the Lord Protector Pei Yi and Pei Yan into the hall~” Loud voices proclaimed the two brothers as they entered the Hall of Golden Chimes
”Your Majesty,” Grand Preceptor Xie finally recovered his wits ”Pei Yan's body has been injured How could someone like him—”
”You've seen it yourself, then?” Ning Xiaoyao interrupted ”Seeing is believing If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, Grand Preceptor, you shouldn't s up”
Grand Preceptor Xie was irinned back ”Which person the world doesn't knohat happened to Pei Yan?”
”I didn't,” Ning Xiaoyao patted herself ”Aren't I a person as well?”
”Your Majesty,” Grand Preceptor Xie protested, ”This isn't child's play”
”That's not it,” Ning Xiaoyao replied ”Grand Preceptor, are your words the only ones to be taken seriously, and ic is that?”
”Your Majesty, this subject only concerns s,” Grand Preceptor Xie replied
Ning Xiaoyao said, ”Fine Then let's consider the facts and not feelings You say Pei Yan is injured, but has he ever taken off his pants for you to see?”
”Pei Yan has seen a physician,” Grand Preceptor Xie refused to fall into Ning Xiaoyao's pace ”Back then, the capital's doctors all took turns exa hi him?”
”You said it yourself, that was back then,” Ning Xiaoyao retorted ”Grand Preceptor, tare people sick for the rest of their lives in your eyes? Can't they recover from their illnesses? Moreover, how did the old Lord Protector die? Back then,” Ning Xiaoyao placed eroup of people who ganged up to force hile capital city, but the entire world working against him, wasn't it?”
”This subject doesn't understand Your Majesty's words,” Grand Preceptor Xie said frankly
”Heheh,” Ning Xiaoyao was equally blunt ”Zhen doesn't understand Grand Preceptor's words, either” M Xiaoyao ave herself a 'Like'
Here they go again All of the Grand Preceptor's faction were starting to grieve in their hearts Grand Preceptor's going to lose another verbal fight again
Lou Zigui looked at Grand Preceptor Xie and said, ”Has Grand Preceptor ever seen the prescription or doctor's orders?”
”What?” Grand Preceptor Xie asked
Lou Zigui continued, ”If you haven't seen the prescriptions that the doctors wrote for Pei Yan, nor his injury with your own eyes, then dare this ask how Grand Preceptor is certain that Pei Yan's body has issues? Didn't the Luo Clan reject their reement with the Pei Clan in the past because of Pei Yan's body issues?”
Ning Xiaoyao's eyes widened That happened as well?
”Supreme Commander Lou” A tall and stalwart military official chose this chance to speak ”Would our Luo Clan have gone back on our word if it wasn't for the doctor's diagnosis?!”
Lou Zigui chuckled and said, ”No matter how skilled a doctor may be, he's still only a commoner Why wouldn't they fear a man with as much power and influence as Great General Luo?”
”You!” Great General Luo looked ready to explode
”Ah!” Ning Xiaoyao opened her mouth ”I should've seen your two sons before Luo Wei and Luo Rui, weren't they? Your features all look similar”
Since Ning Xiaoyao was speaking to hie the emperor ”Yes, Your Majesty Those two are precisely this subject's sons”
On that day in Fragrant Gauze Alley, Luo Wei had even beat up Third Young Master Xie Anshi+ for hugging Yan Hong in the back courtyard Ning Xiaoyao's lips split into a grin as she asked, ”Let reehter marry?”
Everyone stared at Great General Luo, whose face turned purple fro Miss from the Luo Clan eventually married the Grand Preceptor's third son”
”Ah?” Ning Xiaoyao asked ”She married Xie Anshi+?” She e, then Pei Yan's, then considered the fact that younger wo her chin in thought ”The age difference between the, wouldn't you say?”
You even worry about these things? The officials in the hall thought Lou Zigui shook his head at Ning Xiaoyao Now isn't the time for such topics
By now, the Lord Protector and Pei Yan had arrived at the entrance to the Hall of Golden Chi Xiaoyao nodded her head and said, ”It's not like anyone can do anything if Xie Anshi+ prefers lolis, right? Haha”
Elder Li was a serious type and asked Ning Xiaoyao, ”Your Majesty, what is a loli?”
”A little kid,” Ning Xiaoyao replied Faced with Elder Li, she couldn't say such dirty terms like 'pedophile' to his face Even so, Elder Li's face blanched as he looked at Ning Xiaoyao with furrowed brows Ning Xiaoyao purposely turned away I didn't say a thing!
”Let's talk about the Nine Gates Infantry Commander,” Grand Preceptor Xie piped up ”Why is Your Majesty talking about a young daughter's e affairs instead?”
Ning Xiaoyao shrugged ”That's why the saying goes that Heaven sees everything that Man does, and that Man should look to the Heavens when he has a chance to see who it spares Great General Luo, you scorned the Lord Protector's estate as soon as they fell down on their luck It was fine for the young Miss toXiaoyao clicked her tongue ”Your fas before her now: either observe hood or live as a grassIn any case, she's aall the same”
What a poisonous tongue The officials in the hall all rejoiced at the fact that His Majesty wasn't cursing them
Great General Luo dared to risk his life against Lou Zigui, but he didn't have the guts to fight His Majesty (Author: Even if you did, you probably wouldn't win) His face changed fro and sturdy ht now
Ning Xiaoyao pointed a finger at her head and said sincerely to Great General Luo, ”When you have time, look to the Heavens once in a while It'll improve your life”
