Bab 654: Her Highness Wei Wei (Humiliation: Part 2)

When the conservative ministers observed His Highness' attitude, they became immensely worried. They racked their brains to strike up a conversation with the two messengers to prevent any further dissatisfaction. Hence, one of them held up his cup and said, "Both gentlemen have traveled from afar, it must be exhausting, right?"

"It's not that exhausting, but the Capital is not as lively as the rumors say. When we entered the city, there aren't many hawkers around." The messengers smiled sarcastically, as he was obviously indirectly mocking the War Dragon Empire, saying that it was not as mighty as the rumors foretold. 

The ministers clearly understood his hidden vice but they were afraid of disrupting the peace if they retort back. They could only smile and act as if they did not understand.

Baili Jia Jue remained expressionless. He merely smiled and drank a cup of wine. Then, he glanced at the minister.
