Chapter 291: Paying a Visit
At the Tianjin Guards headquarters.
Upon learning that her adopted elder brother, who had disappeared for nearly a month, had suddenly turned up out of nowhere, Li Yuanling immediately raced over on horseback.
"We pay our respects to Her Highness the Princess."
The guards at the entrance saw Li Yuanling approach in a red dress, moving fast and full of energy, and immediately saluted in unison.
In the days after Li Musheng first left the capital, Li Yuanling had frequently come to the Tianjin Guards headquarters looking for him.
At the time, the plan to destroy Falling God Peak was still a secret, and Fu Qiwen had not told her the truth. He had only said that the Emperor had temporarily assigned him a confidential mission.
It was only when word came back that Li Musheng had led the Tianjin Guards to destroy Falling God Peak that Li Yuanling learned her apparently unreliable adopted elder brother had gone off and done something this enormous without anyone knowing.
Li Yuanling kept her snowy face composed, waved for everyone to stand down, then walked briskly straight to the courtyard where Li Musheng was.
Upon seeing Li Musheng sitting in the pavilion drinking tea, she narrowed her eyes, then looked at Shen Anran sitting gracefully beside him in a pale violet dress, and said, "My adopted elder brother is quite something, destroying Falling God Peak and somehow managing to bring back such a pretty girl on top of it."
