After a satisfying shout, the feeling of being neglected all night eased.
Yang Yuran gave an "Ah?" sound, feigned ignorance, and asked, "Princess Xiaozhou, as your devoted general, every day I am conscientious in my work, paying attention to every detail. Always up before the chickens, to bed after the dogs, may I ask how I have failed you?"
As she asked, Yang Yuran suddenly remembered an important matter she had yet to report to Zhou Yuanyuan.
Zhou Yuanyuan must have heard something from Assistant Meng by coming to interrogate her in the dead of night. Feeling guilty, Yang Yuran dropped any remaining desire to argue and quietly waited for the scolding to come.
"Not reporting what you know is adding a crime, Yang Aiqing, quickly tell me about the conflict you and my brother had tonight. No, I got the time wrong; if you two didn't come home together, it means trouble was brewing in the morning. Quickly confess honestly and don't make me torture you."
