"Empress."
Ning Zhuoyue and County Magistrate Liu hurried forward to pay their respects.
"Eh, you're all still here?"
Su Pan'er looked surprised, "I thought you had all left. It seems I was mistaken."
This statement made both of their complexions stiffen.
Ning Zhuoyue quickly clenched his fists in salute, "Without the Empress's command, how dare we leave on our own? If the Empress is startled, it is our fault."
"This matter has already been addressed by me and needs no further discussion. However, regarding the arrangements for those who perished, Young Master Ning must not be stingy!"
Su Pan'er was generous with others' resources, naturally not feeling the pinch, and said it casually.
She continued talking as she walked outside.
Ning Zhuoyue, of course, kept saying he wouldn't dare, following close by Su Pan'er's side, "Empress, are you planning to leave?"
