"Is that so..." Emperor Chongle finally got a satisfactory answer. He whistled, and the guards landed. One grabbed Qianyuan to prevent him from escaping, while the other helped Emperor Chongle untie the ropes.
Outside the door, Ning Guanyan and Changxiu walked in. Ning Guanyan carefully examined Qianyuan, making sure that this troublesome little fellow hadn't suffered any mistreatment outside, before greeting him with a faint smile:
