Volume One, Chapter 49: Refusing to Share a Husband with Another Woman

When she entered, the first floor was dark; she assumed Hanyu was resting upstairs. Yet, even after going upstairs, no one was in sight.

“Get to the point!” Queen Lin, exhausted from being bothered by endless trivial matters all day, had finally reached her limit.

By rights, Yi Yuansong should have been the one to greet her, but Yi Yuansong intended to profit from his cousin’s reward, and the cousin seemed quite wealthy.

Since Qin Jinyu was attacked and remained here, he understood that the real battle had begun. He delegated many tasks to his subordinates and focused solely on dealing with Qin Jinyu himself.

A rice paddy, like a mother field, requires meticulous care—ensuring the seedlings are planted uniformly, finely, and at just the right fertility. The water must neither be too much nor too little; once the seeds are sown, the germination rate must be guaranteed. If the seedlings are insufficient, it would be a disaster later.

Qin Moshang looked expressionless at the few people who hung their heads before him; the oppressive atmosphere in the office was suffocating.

Although Qin Jinyu was highly skilled and quick-witted, in moments of crisis, he could only spare some attention to the charcoal brazier. Using this opportunity, A Zhi slipped the dropped original letter into her sleeve and tossed her forged letter into the fire.

Disguised as “bumper cars” were six Idalaria “war chariots,” each about the height of two men, painted jet black, with exquisite horse sculptures at the front for one rider, and a compartment at the rear for one occupant.

The space was silent; no one spoke to break the stillness, and no suitable topic came to mind to shatter the quiet.

In the past, Gu Anran’s reckless arrogance made others fearful. At that time, Gu Anran acted without discipline and was capricious; when in a bad mood, he would strike without mercy.

Even fishing in floodwaters requires courage. Without some skill, one cannot fish at all because you never know what you might catch.

Lu Zheng and Ge Yuanfeng fought directly, then dug a large enough pit on the leveled ground nearby. Together, they placed the coffin into the pit, covered it with mountain soil, and piled up a grave mound.

Outside, the thunderstorm continued. Inside the temple’s meditation room, many pilgrims stayed overnight. Drunken Winter returned to the meditation room carrying rice porridge from the kitchen.

“If you want to run your own shop, then answer my questions honestly, and this money is yours. But if you deceive me…” Ling Ruoxuan pulled out two ingots of fifty taels of gold from her sleeve.

This time, Lu Zheng appeared suddenly on the official road outside Xuanming Prefecture because he had heard by chance that a long-missing direct disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect had survived great peril and returned to the sect. After a brief comparison, he realized it was none other than Senior Brother Yan, whom he had worried about deeply. Overjoyed, he hastily set aside everything else and rushed toward Xuanming Prefecture.

Fang Mian had originally intended to give a few reminders, but considering that the four of them were no ordinary people, he reckoned that once inside, they would be the ones doing the attacking, not being attacked. Even if someone tried to fight them, they would not prevail.

Those guarding the computers and holding their phones feared missing a detail, instantly taking screenshots first before carefully studying the WeChat message, confirming it was indeed from Actress Liang Xue to Zhou Zekai.

It felt like a century had passed before the other shore finally released Fang Mian, who was panting slightly.

As for martial arts and studies, Zhenzhen was not very quick-witted. After years of practice, she still only knew a few moves. Under pressure from Ren Ci and Shi Hui, she learned a set of light-footed techniques. Although her martial skills were poor, at least she could run fast. After entering middle school, her studies became even more difficult, and she began worrying early about further education.

Just stepping out of the mansion, many passersby on the street saw Qian Qingxi standing at the gate, looking around. Not to mention Feng Chanyi, who was dressed flamboyantly by her side.

His heart called to the Heavenly Emperor with each breath, as if conjuring illusions of life and death; countless ephemeral beings appeared around him, continuously aging and fading away.

Upon hearing Mei Aoxue’s question, Wang Yuetian’s heart stirred. He nearly forgot that the person before him was not from the same world.

Qian Huan opened the door to leave, just as Ji Jing stood at the entrance. Ji Jing looked up at Qian Huan and smiled faintly.

If Chen Haonan had not been splashed with marrow fluid and was intent on escaping, the six talisman treasures he wielded alone would have been enough to crush Ye Feng.

Liu Wen was certainly not a mere pretty face. After such a long period of cultivation, she had not only been improving her prowess but also accumulating combat experience daily. Now, seeing the incoming hand signs, she remained calm, her phoenix eyes narrowing slightly. With delicate jade hands, she waved, and a jade vial appeared in her palm.

When Zhang Shuying saw Zhang Taicheng, she found it hard to believe that he was the same nephew who had once been spirited, proud, and arrogant beyond measure.

Yang Yifan, initially tense about offending the Li family, suddenly relaxed. Although he had crossed the Li family, he had gained a powerful sword formation from them. If Li Feng found out, he would probably be furious to the point of vomiting blood.

“Young man, it seems that not only are your talents and strength exceptional, but your character is far stronger than most,” the Spirit Tamer said, locking his gaze on Nie Tian with a faint smile.

The cold voice revealed exhaustion. Seeing this, Li Jing flicked his sleeve, bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, and showed great reverence. Considering Li Jing’s status as a second-rank duke, having to show such respect to a third-rank titled lady was a tremendous humiliation to him.

That same day, Lian Guoshi and Zhou Shunchang jointly submitted a memorial impeaching Xu Guangqi for deceiving the emperor, concealing the death of his own mother, disregarding human ethics, and violating filial piety.

“Brother Ye will know once he summons them,” Shangguan Yanran said mysteriously, a faint smile playing on her lips.
