âYou dareâ¦!â Jiarou shouted angrily when she heard the word âhouse arrest.â
âYouâre no longer valuable. Take him away.â Bai Yang said.
Twenty people immediately surrounded the princess and escorted her back to her dormitory. They sent her in, and they surrounded her like an iron bucket.
On the other hand, the people of the Northern Continent who were separated by a wall were delighted after receiving the news.
First, their princess was worry-free. Second, with the comparison of the Western Continent, their cooperation with the Great Ming would be smoother in the future.
After King Ning entered the palace, he told the Emperor the whole story. âYour Highness, should we ask them to send another one?â
âNo need. Itâs good to cancel it directly. The involvement of a woman is far less worthwhile than the real benefits.
âIt just so happens that the Western Continent is in trouble. Go and discuss what they plan to exchange for food.
âWhat do you prefer?â
âI heard that there are many mountains and medicinal herbs there. Letâs focus on wood and medicinal herbs.â
âYes, I will settle this matter as soon as possible.â
âThereâs no hurry. Letâs wait for the reply from their king and see what they have to say.
âIn short, we canât easily reach an agreement this time.â
King Ning was stunned for a moment. He smiled and nodded.
âGo, roughly count all the food supplies we have. We have to keep enough for our own use first.â
King Ning nodded and walked out.
When Zhou Ying saw that the Emperor had already noticed Princess Jiarou, who had gone a little crazy, she withdrew her divine sense.
At night, Zhou Ying told Gu Chengrui about it.
Gu Chengrui was stunned for a moment. âWhat a sad story.
âIt seems that the two of them are truly in love. Otherwise, she wouldnât have gone this far to take revenge.â
âMaybe. I reckon that Jiarou isnât far from truly going crazy.â Zhou Ying replied.
At this moment, Guoguo hugged her pillow and came over. âDaddy, itâs my turn to accompany Mommy tonight. You should go out quickly.â
Gu Chengruiâs expression stiffened. âDaddy is talking about serious matters with Mommy. You should sleep first.â
âNo, I want to hear my bedtime story.â Guoguo shook her head.
âIâm going to the study.â Gu Chengrui shook his head.
âAlright.â Zhou Ying smiled.
After he left, Zhou Ying carried Guoguo up and asked, âGuoguo, what story do you want to hear today?â
âWhy donât I tell you a story thatâs like deceiving oneself while stealing a bell?â Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment and asked.
âAlright, alright.â Guoguo nodded repeatedly.
âThe story goes like thisâ¦
âOne night, a thiefâ¦â
âHaha, this thief is really stupid. He covered his ears so he couldnât hear, but others could still hear the bell. So, of course, they could still catch him.â Guoguo laughed.
âGuoguo is really amazing. This little story tells us that doing bad things without others knowing is impossible.
âDo you know what it means to deceive yourself?â
âI know. Donât lie to yourself.â
âThatâs right. This thief only deceives himself, so we should try our best to make fewer mistakes. If we donât make mistakes, weâll still be good children.â
âOne more story, one more.â Guoguo nodded and begged.
âAlright, Iâll tell you a story about Little Red Riding Hood.â Zhou Ying continued.
After eight short stories, Guoguo finally fell asleep.
After she fell asleep, Zhou Ying called Gu Chengrui over, and he carried her directly to Mrs. Lin.
Then, the two of them washed up and went into the interspace to get busy..
