Chapter 470 - 249: Nai’er makes it possible, Ashi Liren
The Gao Clan Eunuch Group’s second-in-command, Elder Gao Yu, rode a griffin beast into Tianshui City.
However, he did not go to find Suo Lun immediately but instead headed to the military camp to meet with Yan Nai’er first.
Seeing the King’s personal eunuch by her side, Nai’er couldn’t help but be astonished. Why had he come to find her?
"A royal decree from the King," Gao Yu said.
After a brief hesitation, Nai’er knelt on one knee, as her military attire allowed for a half-kneeling salute.
Gao Yu said, "It has come to our attention that the Commander of the Tianshui City Defense Army, Yan Nai’er, is intelligent, brave, loyal, and righteous. The King greatly admires these qualities and has thus taken the liberty to adopt you as his foster daughter and, on behalf of Princess Zhen Yan, appoint you as her maid-in-waiting, by this decree."
Hearing that the King had taken her as his foster daughter and she was to become a maid-in-waiting for Princess Zhen Yan, Yan Nai’er frowned.
Since the Zhen Yan Princess had arrived in Tianshui City, she had always tried to avoid her as much as possible. Although becoming a Princess’ maid-in-waiting was a distinction usually reserved for high nobility or the children of lords, and being appointed to this position was considered an honor, Yan Nai’er greatly disliked it.
Moreover, being extremely astute, she instantly understood the hidden meaning behind the King’s royal decree.
