Hearing Tao Bei’s words, coupled with Liu Jiangping’s growing understanding of the situation in Liang Kingdom over recent days, he could more or less guess what was going on.
Cheng Jingzhe fastened the cloak for Zhu Nao, and Zhu Nao’s attire was promptly arranged. The palace guards inside were all neatly dressed, indicating that the fire incident was not urgent.
Zhao Wu was not killed by Shangguan Xian, so Zhu Nao was even less likely to kill him. Thus, on the second day after capturing Puzhou City, Zhu Nao personally received Zhao Wu.
Luo Mu rubbed its head again, then walked toward the fiery clash between the Firebird and the Giant Swamp Beast, clapping its hands to halt their fight.
“Without any trouble, and yet you don’t come to pay homage to the Bodhisattva?” Madam Chen said as she straightened her back, clasped her hands together, and murmured a prayer, though no one knew what she was praying for.
They came from Lingnan and knew little about the affairs within the imperial palace; only the Duke’s household had mentioned some matters about the harem.
“No worries, the tune can be heard again later. But Wan’er looks exhausted and weary; she need not force herself. Just rest. I’ll sit here for a while, and leave when the time comes,” Lu Qingyi said, sighing inwardly. The girl was a good one, and she felt a touch reluctant to get up.
She always felt that the principal’s attitude today was overly respectful. It was just an admission test—did such a prestigious school really require so many teachers to receive a student?
Then Lin Feng checked his phone and saw that all the popup ads were for the cars he had just posted.
These older concubines in the harem lived a life full of dissatisfaction, and now, in the end, they faced even harsher treatment, unable to even live comfortably.
After a brief standoff, fortunately, the yellow creature suddenly crouched down, touching the ground with all four feet and pawing at the earth, which made me unconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.
But sometimes, things went contrary to wishes; the more he tried to sleep, the more sleepless he became, his mind replaying the breathtaking scene just now.
On the main hall throne, the Empress Dowager sat upright on a carved sandalwood chair, dressed in black palace robes. Her hands, holding Buddhist prayer beads, were lined with wrinkles. Her benevolent face smiled without speaking.
Why did I, in the middle of the night, recklessly check on Pei Jinnian, causing Chen Jin to discover and fly into a rage?
But when misfortune struck at home, pressing down on her from all sides, Li Hancheng became the final straw that broke her back.

Fortune favors the bold; if they win, backed by the Qi and Su families, they will undoubtedly dominate the entertainment industry.
He was already an adult, yet still controlled by Bai Zhenhua, that damned old madman! Why hasn’t he died yet?
“She is Pei Jinnian’s ex-wife, the one you mentioned before—Shu Ran, right?” Tao Ruan asked beside Chen Jin.
Now the Zhong and Jiang families rose and fell together; even if Jiang Heng acted not for himself, he had to consider the Jiang family patriarch.
The villagers all went out but did not stray far; they gathered around Zhu Gouzi’s front gate.
She was precisely one of Yun Feng’s strange customers, Han Xue, who sought from Yun Feng the formula for “making a man impotent.”
“I know, only one month remains. In this month, I must gain the strength to defeat Feng Cangming,” Lin Qi said with great urgency.
Dongfang Chen’s words clearly told Caroline that as long as she never returned to her country, he would keep a constant watch over her.
“Mei’er, aren’t you asleep yet?” Zhou Youmeng came out of the room holding a glass of water.
Sure enough, next, Old Master Tang instructed Fubo to take the serpent’s blade to the Qi family, giving the blade to the head of the Qi household, who was Qi Wei’s uncle.
The manager’s salary was higher—eight thousand plus bonuses and commission. Currently, Ye Ling’s Agricultural Technology Company had hired a network sales manager and an agricultural production manager; especially the latter, who possessed rich experience in production management.
If the old lady did not quarrel with the fourth branch, using filial piety to pressure them, the fourth branch would have no choice but to obey.
She could not understand Han Yiqian, nor could she grasp what his alternating cold aloofness and tender ambiguity toward her truly meant.
The elder’s eyes brightened as he carefully examined Yun Feng again, as though discovering a great treasure.
“Bastard, I’m going all out with you today!” Zhang Zhaoming roared, transforming into a powerful force and charging straight at Qin Hu.

After speaking to himself, he clenched his hand tightly around the wine glass, veins bulging, revealing the immense madness repressed within Tian Yuan Kamakura’s heart.
Upon hearing this, the elders of the other major factions all mobilized their spiritual powers, but ultimately, their efforts vanished without trace.
Yan Luo’er glanced at that person; she did not believe he would give up such a prime opportunity to boost his presence in front of fans without reason.
Sometimes, encountering a good teacher is truly an exciting yet frustrating event for a student like her who dislikes studying.
After a brief explanation, Mu Chufeng, Long Sihai, and others quickly withdrew to the front of the main hall, bowed to the elders of the Long and Mu families, then vanished into the void.
But now, Yun Mu’s martial arts not only possessed the ability to seal space-time but also covered an even broader area than the void he had just sealed.
Lin Xiyao looked at Shangguan Jue disdainfully. Was this person really reliable? Why did she feel so insecure?
Seeing the two approaching, Ikalissa hurried forward to offer help, but was declined by Odinerei with a simple “I’ll handle it.” That likely implied more than just those words… She gave up, deciding not to spoil the mood.
Returning to the main point, the information Li Qi shared with him today, if taken individually, could each cause a massive upheaval if revealed outside.
“Hey, wait, didn’t the Hong family claim to possess a treasure that even experts at the Tianquan level would covet?” At this moment, someone seemed to recall this and quietly spoke.
It wasn’t his lack of insight; such demons were truly rare in the past, otherwise they wouldn’t have remained unknown to the public for so long.
Forget it, forget it—there’s no use worrying about the future; at least this time I can’t do anything about it. Who asked me to be caught up in it?
