Chapter 229: Pink-robed Pleasure
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Madam Su, how are things on your side? Hey, now that we are here, these people here of all colors are like fools. I don’t know how they could go against us before.”
“Indeed, they are no different from fools.”
The Green Guardian was utterly speechless.
“Let’s sit down. I’ll tell you about the situation here.”
Everyone took their seats one after another. Su Ying told the Green Guardian to excuse himself, leaving only the few of them in the inner hall.
“The people here are all puppets. Whether it’s the red-robed man or the green-robed man we met earlier, it’s very difficult for them to have the ability to think independently. They do things according to the rules and regulations set by the Sky Alpha City earlier.”
Qiao Yang interjected when he heard that, “You mean, after their Empress died, they listened to you, Madam Su?”
Su Ying felt that this matter still needed further confirmation.
“I’m not sure yet, but there’s something else 1 want to say. I want to move here. This place is relatively mature in all aspects. Whether it’s the city defense or the buildings, they’re all perfect. We only need to make minor improvements, and the place will definitely be better than the Tiger Base.”
“Madam Su, you don’t want to stay in the Tiger Base anymore?” Qiao Yang asked somewhat anxiously.
“We can’t abandon the Tiger Base either. After all, we spent a lot of effort building the Tiger Base into what it looks like now. However, if we’re talking about living here on a long-term basis, I still prefer this place after considering all aspects.”
“If everyone moves here, what about the Tiger Base?”
“Not everyone is willing to leave the place where they have lived for a long time. The Tiger Base will not be devoid of inhabitants.”
Moving house wasn’t a small matter, and Su Ying had only mentioned it to them so that they could be mentally prepared. As for the specifics, they would have to wait until they returned to discuss this matter with Meng Zi and the others.
However, before they went back, they had to settle the people here down first.
Xiao Jin and Qiao Yang went to count the number of children who had not completely become puppets. Su Ying followed the green-robed man to the training ground. He had already given the order for everyone to gather at the training ground.
As Su Ying walked to the training ground and looked at the colorfully-robed people standing there, she thought to herself that sooner or later, she had to make them change their clothes.
The Green Guardian handed a book to Su Ying. “Your Majesty, these are the duties of the people in different colored robes.”
Su Ying opened the book and took a look. The black-robed people were multipurpose laborers and cannon fodder, while the gray-robed people had a similar status to the black-robed people.
The yellow-robed people were in charge of patrolling the palace, while the red-robed people were in charge of taming beasts…
“What does this Pink-robed Pleasure mean?”
The Green Guardian replied, “Their job is to give Her Majesty pleasure.”
Su Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at the pink-robed fellows. At a glance, the figures of the pink-robed people were much more prominent than the others, and all of them were men.
When she looked at their appearances, they were all outstanding. They were the kind who would be noticed at a glance when standing in a crowd. Moreover, they had ail kinds of styles.
Just as Su Ying was engrossed in looking at them, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of her, completely blocking her view.
Su Ying raised her eyes and her gaze met Xiao Jin’s deep, unfathomable eyes.
“Are you done with the headcount?”
Xiao Jin’s gaze swept past the pink-robed men indifferently.
Hmph! Women…
“We’re done.”
“Oh.”
“These are the responsibilities and numbers of the people in various color robes. Take a look.”
Xiao Jin withdrew his gaze and took the booklet to read. When his gaze swept across the significance of the pink-robed men’s existence, he narrowed his eyes. He closed the book after reading it.
“What do you want to do?”
Su Ying said, “We’re here to settle down. I just went to the grain warehouse here to take a look. The grain stored inside is enough for us to eat for a long time. When spring comes, we’ll look for wasteland to develop. Those from the Tiger Base who are willing to come here can come over. Those who are unwilling can continue to stay in the Tiger Base.”
“Mm-hmm. I’ll stay here to organize the place. You go back and explain the situation to Uncle Meng and the others.”
Su Ying nodded. “Alright. I’ll leave the men we brought with you. I’ll go back with Qiao Yang and the rest.”
“Mm-hmm.”
“You guys listen to his instructions later, understand?”
The Green Guardian glanced at Xiao Jin and replied respectfully, “Yes.”
Su Ying called out to Qiao Yang and Long Ba and brought them back to the Tiger Base.
“Madam Su, I… 1 will follow you guys here afterward,” Long Ba said. He had walked around the city a few times and felt satisfied no matter where he looked. Compared to this place, the Tiger Base was much more dilapidated. Living here gave him a greater sense of security. He had already taken note of which building he wanted. When the time came, he would shamelessly ask Su Ying for it!
“Since you’re willing to come over, I naturally won’t stop you.”
“I’m coming too, I’m coming too. I want to stay with you, Madam Su.” Qiao Yang also hurriedly expressed his opinion. How could he live without Madam Su?
After returning to the Tiger Base, Su Ying went home and told her people to gather Tiger Might, Meng Zi, and the other people.
After that, she told them her plans.
“Big Brother, you have no idea how secure that place is. If we live there, it will definitely be much safer than the Tiger Base. The city walls are so high even flies can’t fly in.”
Long Ba also nodded in agreement. “Qiao Yang is right. 1 want to go. I want to go with Madam Su. You guys can do whatever you want.”
Meng Zi furrowed his brows in a dilemma. The people of the North District had already lived here for many years. It was equivalent to taking root here. There were probably not many people who were willing to leave.
“I can’t make the decision for everyone on this matter. I still have to go back and ask for everyone’s opinion.”
Su Ying nodded in understanding. Then she heard Tiger Might interjecting, “If we all leave, won’t we lose this place?”
“We won’t lose it. In the future, there will be more exiled people coming here. We can also take this opportunity to expand our numbers.” It was such a big city and such a big Tiger Base. The place was too sparsely populated if they were the only ones here.
“We also want to take over the Azure Dragon Base that was massacred previously and build our own northern wilderness.”
Meng Zi and the others raised their heads to look at Su Ying before gradually coming back to their senses. Su Ying did not simply want to move to a more comfortable place to live. She clearly wanted to take over the northern wilderness.
Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes were ominous as she slowly stood up, her eyes filled with unshakable determination. “We are all people who have been abandoned by our own states. Some of you are guilty, some are wronged, but no matter which group you belong to, you can’t go back. Then, are we going to remain stateless people for the rest of our lives? I, Su Ying, refuse to. Since they no longer acknowledge us, then I’ll create a state for myself. No matter who objects, it’s useless.”
If anyone else were to say this, they would think that the other party was too arrogant and conceited. However, Su Ying did indeed have the ability to do so.
“I, Tiger Might, have said before that my life was bestowed by Madam Su. No matter what Madam Su does, I am willing to follow her unconditionally.”
“Me too, me too,” Qiao Yang echoed.
Su Ying nodded and looked at Meng Zi. Meng Zi appeared a little troubled.
“Madam Su, this matter…”
