Guess who got the Nie sect’s approval to start our own sect!

I figured out how to mitigate some of the dangers of using sabers, too. I left a couple prototypes in Nie Huaisang’s hands. It’s an amulet that acts as a filter for the yin energies. We won’t know how well it’ll work for a while, but it should work in theory.

Maybe if you drank every day, but you only do so rarely.

It’s fine, though! I think it’s pretty cute.

[shangba]

You are inconvenienced.

[emperorssmile]

I don’t mind it. I inconvenience you all the time!

[shangba]

False.

[emperorssmile]

Never?

[shangba]

Seldom.

[emperorssmile]

I knew I inconvenienced you sometimes! Thanks for being honest about it with me, Lan Zhan.

[shangba]

If not with you, then with no one.

[emperorssmile]

I can trust you with my anything and everything.

You’re so devoted to me that it almost aches when I think about it. I’m truly the luckiest man alive.

[shangba]

I, more fortunate. Wei Ying no longer speaks to damsels.

[emperorssmile]

I still speak to them, I just don’t flirt to get freebies anymore. It would be unbecoming of a wife to flirt outside his marriage.

[shangba]

I concur.

The tavern keeper is pretty cute, today. He must be about Jin Ling’s age and he’s eager to please. His mother owns the place, but she’s suffering from some sort of illness. I’m going to meet her once the crowd dies out. It sounds more like a curse than a disease.

[shangba]

...Wei Ying.

[emperorssmile]

He’s a cute kid, not a cute man. You’re the cutest man around!

[shangba]

Wei Ying also young in flesh.

[emperorssmile]

But not in experience.

The kid’s worried about his mother. He’s so dedicated and genuine that he reminds me of Sizhui.

[shangba]

Perhaps leave a few silver pieces more.

[emperorssmile]

Hanguang-Jun is always so generous. I planned on it. He’s offering us free room and board to meet with the proprietress.

[shangba]

Wei Ying may patron as he sees fit.

[emperorssmile]

It’s because you’re such a good influence on me. A couple years ago, I wouldn’t have thought to.

The wine is good. Not quite as good as Emperor’s Smile, but it’s pleasant. It’s strong and has been sweetened with honey. I bet you’d like it.

[shangba]

From Wei Ying's lips.

[emperorssmile]

Would you get drunk from one kiss?

[shangba]

Shall we learn?

[emperorssmile]

Kissing you is what I most look forward to upon my return.
