Chapter 30

“Mr. Jiang Min, how could you not have thought of these things? Don’t lie to me!” The fake Longlong seemed to have already believed what Brother Xiang said.

Meanwhile, Lan Qi followed the people from Cining Palace to Ningshou Palace. After the consort of Prince Gongqin was injured, she was immediately brought here. The stage at Chengqian Palace had not been taken down; apart from a few involved individuals, Consort Tong was leading everyone to watch the performance, and no disturbances arose.

“It really is a rainbow. I’ve never seen a rainbow before; this is the first time.” The light in Qingjun’s eyes was even more brilliant than the rainbow itself.

“Really? You said so, and you’ll be responsible for our safety!” Yun Ling’er ignored Yun Yanxing’s warning and made a funny face at Cheng Tai.

All the commotion somehow diluted the joy of the birth of the Eighth Prince. Everyone waited to see what would happen to the two sisters of Yikun Palace. In contrast, no one paid attention to what was happening in Xianfu Palace, even though Consort Wen had been distributing lucky bags everywhere early in the morning; they were casually set aside and soon forgotten.

Regardless of whether the looks cast upon Ling Wushuang were purely appreciative or driven by desire.

Dan shouted loudly, pulled out a pistol, and shot dead a baby who had somehow climbed onto the rooftop. The bullet hit the baby’s heart, but the body seemed sticky, clinging to the roof.

Movement began within the Yao family’s camp, naturally not escaping the notice of other camps. After all, only four forces had arrived upon receiving the news.

The next day, Wu Jingtai took his wife and Wu Ling’er to the General’s Mansion early in the morning. General Liu Hong personally came out to welcome them, and Madam Liu escorted Mrs. Wu and Wu Ling’er to the back hall.

This strange man suddenly grabbed a bowl from somewhere and rushed into the room, banging on it vigorously with a wooden spoon.

At that moment, the figure of Lou Zisu, gradually fading in the sky, trembled for no apparent reason before decisively transforming into a gentle breeze and vanishing.

Cheng Taotao was also quite frightened; an ordinary child would have probably burst into tears by now. Fortunately, Cheng Taotao was no ordinary child.

The guards were stunned and dumbfounded, unable even to exchange glances, each standing there dazed without coming to their senses.

During the years spent in prison, Rong Jing had endured every hardship. The first three months were the darkest period of his life, but as time went on, he realized that the claim about prisons reforming people was not false.

After a long time, the robust figure finally paused, looking somewhat reluctant to stop. He glanced upward at Mi Ning, grinning broadly, his voice soft as that of a refined gentleman.

Even Ning Shuiyue, when facing her, restrained the usual arrogance and sharpness he showed to others.

By the end, a sudden sharp killing intent entered Su Zhiyang’s words, causing some elders to shudder slightly.

“Afraid?” Kebin Jian frowned, puzzled by Yan Rou’s response. Would Qiuli Ju and his troops really be afraid of their alliance? “General Yan Rou, please speak plainly.” He truly could not grasp the meaning behind her words and hoped she would clarify.

Yet at this moment, she felt no joy about the army, only profound confusion, as if a riddle was growing larger in her heart.

Finishing the exam merely marked the complete end of the last semester; the new semester immediately began.

“You…” Unexpectedly, Li Moran said something infuriating. Ye Xiaomei adjusted her clothes and tried to jump off the carriage to leave but was pulled into the man’s embrace.

Hearing his disciple’s words, Li Jun immediately gave chase. Sure enough, he caught up with Chen Yu not far ahead.

Xiao Ran had no desire to engage with her. If she wanted to leave, so be it; he had nothing to do with her. If she wished to ride in a sedan chair, he would stubbornly refuse. But considering Ling’er’s frail health, he asked if she wanted to ride, as he still had a few spare gold coins.

These few words left Xiao Ran speechless and unable to retort, though his brow remained furrowed, dismissive of Ling’er’s remarks.

Xiao Ran’s expression grew serious, utterly unprepared for the other’s ability to devour his internal energy. His own internal breath was already weaker, placing him at an absolute disadvantage.

“I only need to borrow one hundred and fifty men, with no particular requirements on their strength!” Chen Yu said.

The more Xiao Fantian thought about it, the more worried he became. If Chen Yu truly acted recklessly, killing Xiao Ran would be easy, thus removing all worries.

However, the pet with the strange hairstyle seemed determined to block his way. No matter where he tried to go, it was firmly in his path. Chen Yu was helpless; it seemed he must deal with this pet before he could leave.

“Thank you, Chief Xie, for not punishing me.” She looked fearful and was escorted away by the other maids.

Xiao Shenjin’s sharp gaze shot over, frightening the guard who trembled so much his arrow almost flew free.

Jack had just finished speaking when two companions stared at him with terrifying eyes. After a long while, Dr. Grace resumed walking forward.

With such a large Gong family, it was impossible that there were no relatives. Moreover, Gong Zhiyun had returned some time ago, yet no one had come to visit.

“From a purely theoretical perspective, this is feasible. However, this argument is merely theoretical. I say you are too lofty and unrealistic because you are detached from reality and indulge in empty dreams. Not everyone is as selfless and public-spirited as you. Zhuangzi’s evaluation of Mozi’s universal love and Mozi’s opposition to the world lies precisely here.”

Upon hearing that Ying Fusu was saved by Xia Wuque after fainting in court, Chunyu Yue felt uneasy and decided not to return home, instead waiting by the palace gate corridor for Xia Wuque.

“Hmph, he’s just a spoiled young master.” As Wu Yuandao finished speaking, the man suddenly swung a hand toward him. Wunian quickly appeared before him, intercepting the attack.

Treating an ordinary person was no problem for Su He Xiang now. In an instant, the wound on his abdomen healed completely, and his internal organs seemed to have returned to their proper places without any discomfort.

“I heard you brought your wife along. Why isn’t she here?” Sang Ge was, of course, curious about his fierce and ruthless wife.

Thinking of this, Bai Lu suddenly felt that Xi Xiao’s words made some sense; this Rong Yue really shared some similarities with her.

“It seems Sister Su truly cares about Young Master Bo.” Jiang Li saw her frown and covered her mouth to suppress a smile.
