No one was allowed to criticize Shen Yanxiao in front of him and at that moment, killing intent surged in his heart.
But suddenly, Shen Yanxiao held onto Lan Fengli's hand and pulled him back.
"Sister?" Lan Fengli looked at her in confusion.
Shen Yanxiao shook her head.
"It's getting late. I believe the envoy, Your Highness and the state teacher must be tired from the long journey. I'll send someone to prepare some food. You can take a rest inside," Shen Yanxiao smiled and said.
Li Qi was satisfied with Shen Yanxiao's obedience. Only an obedient city lord would allow the Emperor's plan to proceed smoothly.
He nodded and immediately changed his attitude to a follower as he spoke to Long Yue and Pei Yuan in a fawning tone, "Your Highness, the state teacher, let's go inside and rest."
Long Yue seemed to be in a trance as he did not hear what Li Qi said. He merely nodded at random.
