merely spoke the truth it is simply a
matter of address he assists me and
naturally I must show him respect haha I
have always held disdain for Scholars
like you your minds are too convoluted
and not straightforward enough unichi
followed closely behind his expression
darkening these two were utterly
disregarding his presence this was ly
Fang's first encounter with Wu tanii not
engaged in fishing although Al though he
was still dressed in casual attire he
was likely occupied with reviewing
memorials as he did not lift his gaze
upon their entrance I Minister Shan tizi
I am DOA we have met your majesty him
welcome both of you yes we are unaware
of the reason for your majesty summoning
us back to the capital DOA spoke first
uan raised his head to look at her
offering no response but instead smiled
at ly fo and you what brings you before
me although wuan was merely an NPC ly F
always felt an overwhelming sense of
pressure in his presence as if he could
see through the hearts of men before him
Lyn F felt no need to conceal anything
and directly stated your majesty I have
come for the purpose of the national
competition I summon General doe back to
the capital to oversee the national
competition and you what is your purpose
ly pH could not help but exchange a
glance with do Le seemed they were both
here for the same matter ay I wish to
propose to your y that the national
competition be held in the first city of
the realm Lyn Fong spoke plainly this
suggestion drew a look of disdain from
do Lia although she was a general she
understood the significance of the
competition knowing that its location
would yield substantial profits ly
Fang's request blatantly indicated an
intention to amass wealth for himself
causing her regard for him to plumet Wu
tanii nodded and remarked I see does
this mean your majesty consents I have
given no such consent H I have stated
that the Empire values Marshall prowess
General doe shall have full authority
over the national competition and thus
you to May deliberate amongst yourselves
I shall not interfere so he was simply
washing his hands of the matter Lyn Fong
and do Lia were promptly ushered out of
the Imperial study to his astonishment
the organization of the national
competition would be entrusted to do Lia
once outside lynf clasped his hands and
inquired General doe what are your
thoughts on my proposal he had initially
assumed that this woman would easily
acques but unexpectedly DOA responded
with a half smile in previous years the
national competition has always been
held in the imperial capital why should
it be held in the first city of the
realm this time for players this would
be a first yet for NPCs it had been
conducted countless times I in her mind
she had already categorized lyong among
the scheming ministers and was
determined not to let him succeed ly
Fong sigh your majesty has tasked me
with over seeing the construction of the
first city of the realm providing a
residence for the families of soldiers
now that the city is complete and the
widows and orphans have been settled
however the city though vast lacks means
of livelihood which is precisely my
concern do Lia raised an eyebrow her
smile fading as she solemnly clasped her
hands I must apologize for misjudging
the chancellor ah I had assumed you were
acting for your own interests but it
appears you are genuinely concerned
about this matter as a general herself
DOA found lyf Fang's words resonating
with her ly Fong feeling a surge of
excitement asked so does this mean the
general agrees I have no objections
however I would like to request the
chancellor s assistance what assistance
ding special Quest triggered doa's
predicament description the borders of
the western Capital frequently suffer
from banditry disrupting the supply of
Provisions DOA is overwhelmed as
