It was the first time Tuan Zi ever saw Hong Yao in this state. The former was used to seeing the latter's proud and willful side. When Hong Yao's tears continued to pour down nonstop, Tuan Zi flapped its wings in irritation and looked at Chu Liuyue for help.
Sighing inwardly, Chu Liuyue wiped Hong Yao's tears away and said, "Alright, alright. Stop crying; I won't kill him."
W-what does that mean? Because of a green sparrow, the Crown Princess isn't going to sentence Mu Qinghe to death?! Everyone was surprised to hear that, and whispers broke out among the crowd. "No way! Is she really going to spare his life, all for the sake of a green sparrow?!"
"You don't know about this, do you? Although that green sparrow is Mu Qinghe's contracted fiend, it was under the Crown Princess's care most of the time… I heard that she dotes on it as much as her own fiend! If Mu Qinghe dies, that green sparrow will surely die too."
