Late at night once again, Qi Xiaomian handed Sang Qingxiao a piece of candy. This candy was made for the children, but it had melted. If you dislike it, just throw it away; why give it to me?
Silly Beast, he forced it upon me.
You met him again.
He asked Old Vine to come find me.
Oh, he seems to care about you. It must feel nice to have someone close who thinks of you all the time, right?
Ha, you nearly scared me to death. In the middle of the night, a big face was just lying next to my pillow. If I hadn't been alert, he might have stayed there all night.
As soon as I opened my eyes, he shoved a piece of melted candy into my mouth. I was completely unprepared and choked on the candy for nearly a stick of incense's worth of time. I'm still feeling uncomfortable now—it's both sickening and painful.
He was just thinking of you; as for accidentally hurting you, that surely wasn't intentional. Are you really going to hold a grudge against a child?
So here I am sharing with you! The Office of Censors only got three pieces of candy, but he specifically gave me two. I saved one for you to try; it has a unique flavor when melted in a child's hand.
Fortunately, there was a layer of wrapping paper outside. Sang Qingxiao laughed as he ate it. Hehe, my own creation tastes good, and with a bit of brotherly love added in, it's even better.
You can be mad at me if you want; just look at what trouble you've caused me!
But I don't see any anger on your face. Sang Qingxiao leaned in closer to him, finding him both annoying and not entirely unpleasant, right? Once you get used to it, you'll enjoy it. Being remembered by someone means your life will only get happier.
Hmph, nonsense!
Putting idle chatter aside, Qi Xiaomian said seriously that Old Vine and Li Cu had gone outside to scout and indeed found traces of stationed troops about ten miles from the city. There were quite a few—around a thousand.
Are they real soldiers or...
They are imperial troops, Qi Xiaomian explained. The Great Jing Dynasty has stationed troops in every province; the number varies depending on the situation—at most thirty thousand and at least three thousand—all managed by the Prefect. Without major events or imperial orders, they cannot be moved casually.
But this time, they actually moved; what audacity! Do they think that even if something happens, the Qi Family can still protect them? A small family from the rivers and lakes means nothing against the entire court!
Qi Xiaomian snorted coldly. The Qi Family indeed cannot protect them, but they seem to think I can! To be precise, it's Qi Hao who gave them this illusion.
What do you mean? Qi Hao even used you? What about his face?
Before coming here, I just met with the state Prefect.
Uh, is there really a Prefect in the state?
Thinking of that Li person, Qi Xiaomian smiled. He does have an extremely low presence, but one must admit he is talented. Given the uniqueness of this region, the requirements for local officials are quite high.
