"Alright, your actions have met their retribution, and I'm too lazy to waste words with you!"
With that, Li Yang, who was sitting in the back row, closed his eyes to rest.
Within a quaint courtyard in the Hua family mansion, the atmosphere was quite heavy.
However, those in the mafia were even more anxious. After clearing the way with their guns, the mafia boss successfully obtained the latest newspaper.
Dr. San Ye Cao, the leader of the Ohara archaeological scholars, had been arrested and imprisoned by the navy several times. Intelligence personnel discovered a person potentially related to him from the interrogation records at the time.
It made sense; if the Ming Dynasty had truly been conquered by Western powers and reduced to a colony, Liu Kuan would have mentioned it long ago, not waited until now.
Wu Wei didn't know how to answer, only managing an awkward smile. She saw Shi Ping's eyes, gentle and benevolent. Second Sister was always like this, so gentle and intellectual. Perhaps compared to her, she didn't seem like a princess at all, being mischievous and unable to sit still, like a restless monkey.
Jiang Hanlin, already harboring ill intentions, was caught completely off guard by the sudden appearance of Chu Lingxiao.
Why did the lineage of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes manage the area where the imperial family of the Eastern City resided, and how did Emperor Yuan Qing manage to maintain such fairness?
Prince Kang's actions earned widespread praise, and the gathered populace exclaimed, "Prince Kang is wise!" The monks at the temple chanted, "Prince Kang possesses a compassionate heart and is destined for Buddhism."
Jia Mu held her breath and did not fly into a rage in public. She turned to go back to her room, but before she could take a step, she heard a commotion of crying from outside the courtyard.
A'Piao walked slowly to the statue, her gaze falling upon an ancient scroll on the offering table. The scroll was tied with a red string, appearing solemn and mysterious. Her curiosity piqued, she gently untied the red string and unrolled the scroll.
"What!" Hua Mulan sat up abruptly in shock. The teacup in her hand slipped, and the tea splashed all over her freshly changed inner garment, soaking a large patch.
Upon hearing Liu Ru say this, Zhao Liu Zhu breathed a sigh of relief. If that were the case, it would be relatively easier to accomplish.
In the evening, after the two returned home from work and finished dinner, Lan Zi Hao picked Tao Chun up from her wheelchair and carried her upstairs to rest.
Cao Yimo watched his retreating back, her gaze growing colder and dimmer. Finally, she leaned weakly against the window, her body trembling uncontrollably from a mixture of grievance and anger.
Having visited the firm these past few days, Man Sheng discovered that Zhao Fei Ming was actually quite famous in the industry. This was why it was so convenient to find the collateral; the responsible lawyer for this firm was his former junior.
Xiao Yan was very open-minded about the matter of kneeling to Qianlong. Different eras naturally had different etiquette, and since she wanted to live well in the Great Qing, she had to strive to integrate into the era.
The reason she was so wary of Feng Wei Ming was precisely this: he possessed a mysterious power that made her want to explore it but also fear it, a power that was far more troublesome than the malevolent energy within her or the Pure Heart Bodhi.
At that time, Ming Yue had guessed that Madam Tai might know Huang Hong Fei's background. However, as an outsider, it was not appropriate for her to inquire about such matters. Now, after hearing Huang Hong Fei's guess and combining it with Madam Tai's state at the time, Ming Yue increasingly felt that Huang Hong Fei's guess was likely true.
Ming Yue adhered to the principle of low-key conduct. Upon arrival, she immediately sat down, neither actively befriending others nor speaking much with the maids and servants around her, merely staring quietly at the crystal-like water curtain in a daze.
However, the Emperor of Yan seemed to have made up his mind, as if not allowing anyone to refute his decision. He even immediately released Consort Hua, who had been imprisoned.
