It was in the Imperial Study of the Imperial Palace in Dahan Country.
An old man with grey hair was lying on a soft bed for a rest. He wore the imperial robe and crown. Although he looked old and clumsy, he was majestic like a real dragon.
He was Dongfang Xiao, the emperor of Dahan Country, the leader of the Dongfang Family.
In a short time, Eunuch Feng hunched his body and walked in. He whispered beside Dongfang Xiao, “Your Majesty, Eighth Lord wanted to see you.”
Dongfang Xiao’s wrinkled eyelids twitched and he said angrily, “Why did he come again? I had made an exception and let that hoyden be a member of Dongfang Family!”
Eunuch Feng waved his hand helplessly and said, “Your Majesty, that girl is not the daughter of Lord Rui. Eighth Lord was cheated. Zhu Yan and Su Zipei were in the prison of the Supreme Judiciary.”
Dongfang Xiao opened his eyes little wider and sat up under the support of Eunuch Feng.
On the next morning, Su Li was dressed as a childe, and Fang Yuan wore fancy clothes in disguise. They left the Linli Building and went to the Hongyan House.As soon as they entered the alley of brothels, lots of prostitutes who dressed inappropriately went to them and said obsequiously,“Childe, good morning...”“Lord, come and play with me. I have waited for you for a long time...”“...”Fang Yuan looked serious and nervous. When he was a child, he was taught that he should concentrate on practice. He had never come to such a place. He entered the alley of brothels aboveboard for the first time.When Su Li saw Fang Yuan’s expression, she couldn’t help but sneer. She secretly transmitted the sound in silence to him, “Take it easy. You don’t come here for going whoring. Take this way as your adversary. Acting skill is also the basis of a person’s strength. Compared with Qu Qingning, you are too serious.”
Shaking her head, Qu Lu stopped thinking the image of the Hierarch. She was an unimportant person. It was useless to think too much.“Mr. Li, although I was deprived of the command, I still know the personnel alteration situation of the Hehuan Sect. The previous plan does not need to be changed too much.”Qu Lu said with gleaming eyes. She was nervous. The Hehuan Sect had done harm to her for many years. She really hoped that Su Li would continue to implement the plan and let the Hehuan Sect to suffer heavy losses!Tap-tap-tap…Su Li tapped the table with her fingers. It was certain that Qu Lu hated the Hehuan Sect so much. Otherwise, the Hehuan Sect would not have had the big news that shocked the martial arts circle in the previous life.The young woman who sat in front of Su Li and looked a bit nervous exchanged her life for harming Ye Tian severely and almost ruining the Hehuan Sect!Although she faile
“Wu Lirong... How do you know the name?”Dongfang Rui was stunned. People used to mention the name when he was young. Nowadays, no one would mention it. How did Su Li know it?He suddenly realized that he knew Su Li shallowly. He didn’t know how she grew up under the oppression of Zhu Yan, and how she became the lecturer of the Affiliated School of the National Academy.Now she had only stayed in Yunjing less than a year, but her ability of collecting information far exceeded his, while he grew up in Yunjing.Su Li slightly squinted and didn’t answer him.In the previous life, Su Zipei became the princess of the General’s Mansion. Shortly afterwards, Lord Rui remarried. His second wife was Wu Lirong who was from the Wu Family.At that time, Wu Lirong was a widow. Her husband died early. There was a rumor about her among the common people. They said that she was fated to mourn her husband’s death. Therefore
“Quickly! Pull back!”Elder Dao shouted and quickly pulled back. He did not bring all people of the branch of the Hehuan Sect tonight and did not expect to encounter such a dilemma.He suddenly sniffed. Although it rained, he still smelled a very slight putrefactive odor from the robe of the man in the black robe.The corpse puppet!It turned out to be the corpse puppet!Elder Dao immediately realized it and then shouted with anger, “I’m at daggers drawn with the Lianshi Cult!”The eight inborn corpse puppets’ movements of martial arts were all very cruel, and many people died around him in a flash. After the sect knew the news, it was unknown if he could hold down his position in his sect!When Elder Dao thought he had escaped from the attack range of the corpse puppet, a flash of a sword came behind him.“Crack!”A bloody arm was cut and fell into a muddy puddle!
It was in the morning audience next day.Officials gathered in Yunjing City from different corners. Instead of whispering noisily as always, today everyone came silently, stood silently, and waited silently for the audience call.As the time approached for the audience to begin, Wu Suijun was striding towards everyone from the palace gate. All the officials were astonished by what they saw, for this man was not wearing an official gown but an armor on the battlefield.“No weapon carried.”This was a relief to someone. Anyone like Wu Suijun whose house was searched and property confiscated might have been mad if not crazy. Wu Suijun was disrespectful showing up in armor, but he did not go nuts to bring a weapon.Wu Suijun stepped straight into the palace hall and stood in the second position on the right side under the throne. Everyone was calculating.It was obvious that Wu Suijun came today prepared. Ther
It was on a narrow path with a horse standing there at sunset.Glancing at all the family members, Wu Suijun set his gaze on Wu Jin. He said nothing, then he rode on the horse and sped away with dust swirling in the air.Wu Jin took a deep breath with full of energy in his eyes. When his father came back, he wanted to demonstrate to his father that he was able enough to guard the entire Wu Family!With Wu Suijun, the head of the Wu Family dispatched to the border, the Wu Family fell out of favor completely.Although Wu Suijun was still a Third-Grade General, no one dared to engage closely with the Wu Family since Dongfang Xiao had cracked down Wu Suijun in public that day. The Wu Family members who used to walk around arrogantly disappeared suddenly, which was embarrassing indeed.…After dozens of miles along the official road in the east of Yunjing City, one could see an osmanthus forest. Although it was
Wu Lirong covered her mouth immediately. She found that her neck was not cut, but still burning due to a red spot made by the sword. The force control was extremely precise. She believed the cultivation of this man was beyond her imagination!However, despite his great cultivation, he had been hiding in the dark. He also changed dozens of accommodations in the past months. It seemed that he had been hunted by someone more horrible.He happened to know the identity of Wu Lirong and asked her to help him find a woman named “Ning Qing”. In return, he would do something for her.To test this offer, she asked this man to help her find a scapegoat. After all, knowing that she had made so many enemies these years, she didn’t want to somehow get murdered on the street one day.She didn’t expect that the man managed to find a mammy who had the similar figure as hers. Then he played some trick and turned the mammy’s face into hers. At that m
Ouch!A cry came from the lobby.“Ruohan!”Fang Ling and Heidan immediately rushed from the backroom to the hall, but felt relieved when they saw the situation of Mei Ruohan.Mei Ruohan pulled the spike on her wrist and embarrassedly smiled, “I was accidentally hurt by the wood thorn on the counter... I am so sorry.”“It is okay!”Heidan scratched his head and smiled, “I will fix it tomorrow morning, polish it and cover it with cloths, so it won’t hurt anyone.”“Why are you so careless? Your wrist is bleeding. Wait for a moment. I will get you a medicine box.” Fang Ling checked the wound on Mei Ruohan and then went back to the inner room.Everyone left. Mei Ruohan felt warm inside. The Linli Building was like a family, and she was looked after well here.“Well? Why is the wrist becoming hot?”Mei Ruohan lowered her head and held her left wrist, with her b
