"Lord." Xie Yan said discreetly.
Lord Ling looked up at him - Xie Yan was getting very old and he kept messing up the situation, but he had been working with him for so long so he was not going to punish him at this moment. However, he had to employ someone else to run the errands in the future.
Lord Ling nodded. "You have worked hard. I will speak with Chaoyan myself. Take a break and I will keep you informed."
Xie Yan nodded in dumbfounded confusion. Sweat already wetted his back. The Lord was not punishing him directly, but that was his punishment, after all. Five years passed, and he finally came to this stage.
Xie Yan nodded, bowed to him and left.
Lord Ling threw a brief look at him and stopped thinking about Xie Yan. He was a Lord, and when he married Princess Consort, he made the decision directly when he spotted the right woman. He had never gone out to beg the girl for approval.
