"Well… then, I will have to rely on you." Shen Yue gulped. Suddenly, he realized that he was unfamiliar with that side of his second brother.
Shen Duan laughed coldly. "Of course."

On the third day after she had returned to the capital, Shen Yanxiao paid a visit to the emperor and received a certificate of appointment to build a city in the Forsaken Land from him.
