Xiao Zhixing wasn't surprised at all by their conversation. In any case, no matter what Zhao Yunqi was thinking, it was impossible for her to keep Guixiong New City in line.
If it weren't for this ridiculous crown prince selection plan, she would have loved to turn around, conquer the grasslands, and become a queen.
Shengjing City seemed to quiet down once again.
As autumn transitions into winter, and with the arrival of the next spring imperial examinations, scholars from all over the country gather in Shengjing (Mukden).
