The tyrant frowned.

He noticed that the hamster had become increasingly spoiled lately. No, he had to teach it a lesson.

Ji Yan lifted Shen Jiao's chin, narrowed her sharp yet extremely beautiful phoenix eyes, and intended to teach her a stern lesson.

Shen Jiao looked up.

Tears fell in drops.

Ji Yan was slightly taken aback, and her heart clenched with a feeling of discomfort.

Forget it, she's crying so pitifully. Anyway, we've raised her for so long, there's no rush. This won't happen again.

We'll teach them a lesson next time.

The tyrant's long, white fingers gently patted Shen Jiao's back as he awkwardly comforted her, "What are you afraid of? Next time you have a nightmare, just mention my name, and I'll deal with him."

Across the entire world, aside from those arrogant, bristly hamsters who don't know their place, there are plenty of people who are afraid of him.

Shen Jiao: "..."

I understand, so my dad being Li Gang means my older brother is Princess Ji?

...

Shen Jiao thought she had only taken a short nap.

Unexpectedly, I slept for three days and three nights!

She rubbed her temples, relieved to be awake. Had she slept any longer, she might have already decided on the most auspicious locations for buying incense, candles, and paper offerings.

After Shen Jiao woke up, the dark clouds that had shrouded the manor finally dissipated.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he was awake; the tyrant wouldn't continue his madness now that he was awake. Everyone was thankful that their lives had been saved.

Ji Yan was not only a man of action, but also a picky person. He disliked the manor very much, finding it poor and unpleasant to look at.

It wasn't that I really disliked them, but I was just in a bad mood, and nobody dared to offer any advice.

They demolish wherever they don't like it; the huge mountain resort is almost razed to the ground.

If Ji Xiao saw this, he would surely vomit blood. This manor had cost him all his wealth, yet he was being described as poor.

I can't stand it!

Ji Yan originally intended to take Shen Jiao away directly, but found that she was sleeping soundly and could not be woken up no matter what she did.

He didn't know what she was dreaming about, but whenever he touched her, she would whine and whimper, looking as pitiful as a newborn silly roe deer. He could only reluctantly endure it for a few more days.

However, Shen Jiao is now out of danger, so she decided to leave Qibei Mountain and return to the royal city early tomorrow morning.

Chen Bao will also return to Langya Pass tomorrow morning. While the tyrant is taking Zhou Hu to clean up the remaining forces, he will take the opportunity to chat with Shen Jiao.

I mainly wanted to check on the love life of his star pupil.

"Here, take this."

Chen Bao looked around, wary of fire, theft, and tyrants. Seeing that no one was around, he quickly handed a porcelain bottle to Shen Jiao.

Then he immediately resumed his serious demeanor.

"What is this?" Shen Jiao instinctively reached out to open it and take a look.

"Hey, this isn't for you." Chen Bao quickly stopped him, whispering, "This medicine is for His Majesty."

Seeing Chen Bao's guilty conscience, Shen Jiao was surprised, but then earnestly advised him: "General Chen, impulsiveness is the devil. Think of your beautiful wife and your green-haired son. You're committing regicide and exterminating your entire family."

Chen Bao's face darkened: "What are you thinking? My loyalty to His Majesty is as clear as day. You can say that Zhou Hu has such thoughts, but you can't say that about me."

True brothers will stab you in the back!

Shen Jiao thought that Chen Bao was too bold to have such thoughts, so she put the porcelain bottle away.

"What is this used for?"

We can't just give her a bottle of pepper like that guard did, can we?

Chen Bao was taken aback, his expression becoming somewhat unnatural.

He couldn't bring himself to utter the words "ecstasy powder" when faced with a young, unmarried woman.

He couldn't very well say, "Look at you all, none of you are up to par, and we don't know when the little emperor will be able to create one. As a subject, I'm very anxious and want to lend a hand, right?"

This can also be considered a contribution to the future of Dayan.

After much deliberation, Chen Bao chose a more subtle explanation.

"In short, there's no harm in it, and as far as I know, His Majesty needs it quite a bit, one every night, for a night of revelry."

At this point, Shen Jiao finally realized something was wrong.

"This isn't some kind of drug, is it?"

Chen Bao coughed twice awkwardly: "You silly girl, you know it, you know it, why did you have to say it out loud?"

Shen Jiao was shocked: "Oh, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."

"Wh-who are you?" Chen Bao was a little confused.

"I treat you like a brother, and you want to sleep with my woman? I've never even slept with her, and you still want to blatantly steal her away? No way!" Shen Jiao stormed off in a huff.

As she reached the corner, Shen Jiao's expression changed, and she smiled broadly as she secretly hid the medicine.

Very good, even if they force Ji Yan, that naive girl, into marriage in the future, someone will take the blame.

Chen Bao, still standing there in a daze: "..."

I have a bad feeling about this.

...

The tyrant hadn't returned from his business, and Shen Jiao was extremely bored. After dinner, while taking a walk, a man suddenly jumped out of the bushes to block her way.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough; otherwise, Shen Qingfeng would have been kicked into the pond not far away.

"Why, why did you return to the royal city with that person?"

Shen Qingfeng originally wanted to ask why he wasn't with me and my elder brother, but he felt that would put him at a disadvantage, so he swallowed his words.

"It's none of your business." Shen Jiao walked past Shen Qingfeng, this devoted fan of the Bodhisattva, and continued her stroll.

She hadn't figured out how to deal with her background yet, and didn't want to get too close to the people from the Marquis of Anbo's mansion.

"Even if it has nothing to do with me, what about my elder brother?" Shen Qingfeng chased after him.

Judging from the way the little girl walks, her injury should be getting better.

Wait, she's so annoying, I can't care about her!

Shen Jiao didn't stop walking. "It has nothing to do with him."

Shen Qingfeng was taken aback.

He clearly hadn't expected her to be so indifferent.

After all, the kids in the family are all quite afraid of their older brother.
