Capítulo 355: Desire to Obtain

Zheng Lide and Meng Zhi entered the courtyard awkwardly, with their faces red with shame.

Looking at the corpses lying on the ground and the broken window, then seeing the people through the window, they knew that they were in for it.

When Xue Ningyu saw them, she plucked her skirt and came to the pedestal of the hall. She looked down upon them and coldly smiled. "Hello there, Commander Zheng, Commander Meng, you're still alive."

Zheng Lide came forth and closed fist saluted. He responded with sincerity, "Princess Xiao, Consort Song, Consort Xue. It is due to our negligence… I didn't think that this group of people had split into a few groups and had us running around. We didn't think they had charged into Princess Xiao's courtyard."
