The True Meaning of Nine Grains

The next morning.

Xi Gate City.

The central district of Xi Gate Academy.

Xi Rong Manor Lord's room had always been there and was cleaned regularly, but Ning Zheng had never used it.

Now he had come here early in the morning, opened the wardrobe, put on a magnificent court robe, and tidied his attire while facing the mirror.

"My lord, let me help you."

The Medical Fairy Maiden logged into the Sword Fairy Maiden's account and tried to help arrange his clothes, hoping to gain some favor.

"No need."

Ning Zheng finished arranging his clothes himself, afraid she would mess them up again. He sighed and said, "We are going to the capital now. To show our respect, you two will come with me."

Going to court was truly troublesome. It did not suit a salted fish like him.

"We're going too?" The Medical Fairy Maiden's eyes lit up.

A quest!

Another quest.

And it was a quest to enter the court and attend an Imperial Audience.

Thinking back, the last time she had gone to the capital for an Imperial Audience had been ages ago.

Ning Zheng's gaze fell on the two eager women. "Don't get excited. I'm only taking you there. Whether you will be allowed to enter and attend the audience remains unknown."

"Yes!"

The Medical Fairy Maiden's eyes lit up.

Ning Zheng let out a long sigh, then took the two of them through the state-city teleportation array and quickly arrived at the capital on the Flower Garden.

With a clatter.

Ning Zheng and the others appeared before the capital's city gates.

Ever since the incident of forging the sun and moon in the capital, Ning Zheng had rarely come here.

Now that he had returned, it was still as prosperous and bustling as ever.
