NOVPUBShen Roujia glanced at Wei Rui with some suspicion but didn’t say much. However, Wei Rui’s gaze toward Shen Roujia now carried more emotion.
Xi Lan arranged for them to stay in a very quiet courtyard, giving no indication of how long they could stay. But from the look of things, it was clear they could stay as long as they wished.
Shen Roujia didn’t feel the need to rush. In ancient times, especially in the world of martial arts, promises were highly valued. Shen Roujia understood this well, so even without saying anything, the current situation conveyed a clear message.
The strength of the Martial Alliance.
Shen Roujia wondered, since such power existed in the martial world, why didn’t the royal family impose stricter control or express concern? Instead, they seemed more focused on restraining military officials.
Was it because they valued literature over martial prowess?
Shen Roujia didn’t want to impose her thoughts on others. Seeing Liu Ruyi and Wei Rui so relaxed, she thought they must have already trusted her.
As Shen Roujia pondered this, she saw Zhang San finishing up his tasks. “Miss, the room you’ll be staying in has been cleaned.”
Shen Roujia nodded in satisfaction, “Well done. I’ll add some meat to your dinner tonight.”
She said with a cheerful smile, casually tossing her veiled hat to Zhang San as she stretched and took a breath of fresh air.
Zhang San caught the hat and immediately looked around cautiously.
Shen Roujia strolled leisurely, thinking that being deep in the martial world, this place governed by the Martial Alliance was probably the safest.
