Ms. Doctor Divine



He always felt that he was alone.

Either in the court or after owning the Shadow Door. He was always alone. His men were working very devotedly, but that was only because they followed his order.

No one understood him, but Gu Chaoyan was born to think alike with him.

What he had just thought of doing turned out to be what Chaoyan was thinking as well. And they were going to do it straightforwardly.

He was in a very embarrassing position in the capital at the moment.

He was powerful, but he was disliked by the King.

If he intended to take the throne fair and openly, he would need the civilians to see how ridiculous the King was. However, what he was going through and what the civilians had seen was not enough. He needed to get more.

Chaoyan would need help to make "the more" happen.

The King might do something even more ridiculous just to give him a hard time, after knowing that Chaoyan was with him today at the mansion. When the ridiculous things reached a certain degree, he would have the excuse to take the throne.

By that time, he could do everything fair and openly.

He would no longer be under anyone's control and the civilians would be protected by his Shadow Door, though it might be a bit chaotic at the moment. Shadow Door could keep them safe.

That was the agreement he had with Chaoyan without saying out loud. Both of them understood the situation, and there was no need to say more about it.

As for the monsters… some hidden guards from Shadow Door came to remind him about the strangeness of the variety show class. They believed that they were monsters, but…

Monsters were strange things for him and Chaoyan.

All they could do was to keep control of them so that the Saint Divine Land would not fall into their hands.

"After the hidden guards told me about this, I already spoke to Officer Wang and let him mention this to the King in the morning session. Apparently, the King doesn't think it is a big deal and has no interest in dealing with it, but the variety show class should not be allowed free reign. The Shadow Door would keep control of them, since forces from the court refuse to do anything about it. We already made the plan last night. The people and the animals from the class will be escorted away by Shadow Door and locked up," Zhou Huaijin said.

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

That was a relatively good solution for the moment.

As for others… she decided to tell the King about it. The Saint Divine Land had many towns and the King needed to arrange forces to keep those towns safe.

Zhou Huaijin also whispered to Gu Chaoyan about his upcoming plan.

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

Their conversation was done, then Zhou Huaijin opened the door of the Pavilion.

Uncle Zhou outside pretended as if nothing had happened. He came in with the served tea. "We have few servants here, Lady Chaoyan, please don't mind the tea I make for you."

"I won't, Uncle Zhou." Gu Chaoyan smiled and finished the tea happily.

When messengers from the court hurried in, Gu Chaoyan was just discussing the tea with Uncle Zhou.

The messengers from the court exchanged a surprised look between themselves.

When they received the report from the imperial army, they came to stop the Phoenix Girl from spending too much time with Lord Huai. Unexpectedly, she was speaking with the servant of Lord Huai's Mansion, whilst Lord Huai was expressionlessly standing next to them.

Gu Chaoyan tugged Zhou Huaijin's sleeves upon seeing the messengers' expressions. Zhou Huaijin caressed her head.

Frightened, one messenger said, "Lady Chaoyan, the King is asking you to come to the court."
