Chapter 401: Back to the Palace
Li Musheng returned to the inn and tossed the jade pillow casually to the large black cat, which had been craving it for a long time, letting it satisfy its paws.
Daoist Qingyu, witnessing this, only let out a long sigh and went back to her room.
Inviting Moon Palace's First Palace Mistress Wenyue, who had followed them back, found that Li Musheng had no immediate intention of dealing with her, and dared not press about her younger sister's whereabouts. She had no choice but to get a room at the inn as well and settle in.
And so the night passed, the people of Taixuan City spending what appeared from the outside to be a perfectly ordinary evening.
The next morning, Li Musheng and the others came downstairs for breakfast as usual.
Zhao Muning, who had spent the night with her two Senior Aunts treating her younger brother's injuries, came downstairs as well once his condition had finally stabilized for the time being.
Seeing Li Musheng was also there, she immediately went to greet him.
After all, they had all been under Li Musheng's protection during this time, and his kindness was something that had to be acknowledged at every opportunity.
But what Zhao Muning found entirely unexpected was that Li Musheng glanced at her, then pointed toward Wenyue sitting alone at another table, and said, "If you have time today, go with her back to the Great Xuan imperial palace. I had a conversation with the old man in your palace last night. He has agreed to support you as the Great Xuan emperor. Go and find him."
