"Xiangxiang, give this to Lijian and tell her to go find Aunt Hua. Tomorrow, she must see all the wives of high-ranking officials and nobles in Pingyang County distributing grain and porridge in the city."

Currently, every household in Pingyang County has enough grain and is eating their fill. The purpose of this action is not to save a day's worth of food, but to inform all the people of Pingyang County.

We're not worried or scared, so what are you afraid of?

Just do what you're supposed to do.

"Da Ni'er, don't reject them yet."

Then, Huo Xiaolong looked at the dark-skinned girl who was peeling oranges and said...

The person sitting opposite stopped what they were doing, looked up, and asked their friend with a puzzled expression.

Why?

"If we want to break through, we'll definitely need an opening, and then..."

Huo Xiaolong felt a little guilty. This behavior was like using Da Ni'er as bait. She lowered her head and refused to continue. The dark-skinned girl continued peeling the orange, pulling off the white pith from the orange flesh.

Da Ni'er divided the oranges into three portions, placing one in Huo Xiaolong's hand and handing the other to Xiangxiang. The girl smiled and said...

"I'm not stupid, I know."

Seeing that Huo Xiaolong was still looking down, fidgeting with his hands, and refusing to speak, she continued...

“My home is Wang’s Pancake Shop, less than a hundred steps from Hualiu Lane in Pingyang County. It’s been there since the day you two took me out to play.”

She looked at the remorseful girl, smiled, sighed, and continued...

"Actually, I have no feelings for the Great Yan, let alone the Yalan royal family. But if it can make my parents and you happy, I would gladly risk my life for them, let alone be bait."

"So, you little tyrant of the red-light district, don't be upset. I'll just go out and sneak back in when things get chaotic."

Hearing his girlfriend say that, Huo Xiaolong raised his head, looked at her with a firm gaze, and said...

"Don't worry, we'll only do this if there's absolutely no other way..."

"Huo Xiaolong." Before she could finish speaking, Wang Dani interrupted her, and then she said...

"I know who you are. Don't let sentimentality get in the way. No matter what, take the approach that minimizes casualties."

You have lofty ambitions, and I have a heart to help others achieve their goals.

I do it not because I want to, but because you want to. With you here, our parents will not suffer. With you here, every family can have peace of mind.

If the title of princess of the Yalan royal family can help you in any way, then I can also be a princess.

My friend is not a sentimental, entangled, or timid person. From the moment Da Ni'er first met Huo Xiaolong, she knew that they were kindred spirits.

It was the feng shui of the brothel that was so nurturing, turning a cold-hearted and indifferent girl into a normal person.

It was the delicious aroma of Wang's sesame cakes that turned this arrogant and ruthless princess into this state.

Therefore, we are not guarding the gates of the Great Yan Kingdom, but protecting the peace and well-being of the land in our hearts.
