Volume 1, Chapter 58: Why Is My Name Written on the Money Your Mom Gave You?
Seeing that both the brigade captain and Director Xu had spoken, Zhang Yulan, no matter how anxious she was at the moment, did not dare to step out to stop them, and could only hope in her heart that they would not find any clues.
Naturally, the first room to be inspected was the one belonging to Lin Zhi and the others.
Zhao Kuo also reported this matter to Xianyu Chi, who remained unimpressed. Far from driving away the local merchants who had spontaneously gathered there, he welcomed them instead, and intended to assign officials specialized in managing military markets to collect taxes from them.
"I heard Shaoqing shouting just now and thought something had happened. Thankfully, it's nothing. But where is Shaoqing?" Zhao Changle asked somewhat curiously. In her initial anxiety, she had completely overlooked Lord Zhang and Shaoqing.
Qiu Yue possessed a very unique skill, which was the ability to ascertain a patient's age simultaneously while examining them.
The two mounted their horses, galloped across the long street, and lingered outside for a while before returning to the Imperial City.
While Nangong Tian was plotting how to discipline Wang Yu, Jiang Xinyu was similarly scheming how to get Wang Yu to clear out and get lost immediately.
Yet, unexpectedly, those who failed the selection were still frantically trying to blow the matter out of proportion on the internet, which was quite detestable when you thought about it.
Because Liu Ye felt that she was no saint herself; perhaps in certain respects, she was even worse than Ying Ruan.
"All right, I'll get up right now." Hearing Ye Lingdao's words, Tang Xingwei nodded and sat up.
Teng Geng wore a towering Confucian scholar's crown, his standard elegant speech rhythmic and modulated. His tone rose progressively until, in the end, he was practically pointing his finger at Mingyue's nose and cursing bitterly.
The Marquis knew he could not stay here much longer; he could not linger and could only say to the Grand Elder, "I will return in the future." With that, the Marquis flew away directly.
Jiang De was well aware of how thoroughly decadent the imperial guards had become, but he had not expected them to be a military force of craftsmen. Actually, there were naturally craftsmen within the army, intended for the production of various military equipment. However, in this Song Dynasty where the entire army engaged in commerce, the militarization of craftsmanship was quite understandable.
Wu Hao did not even need to turn his head; he merely came to a halt and waited for the opponent's attack to arrive.
"There shouldn't be any other matters too difficult to resolve. I can't take it anymore, I'm going back to sleep for a bit." True to his word, he walked over to his bed and fell fast asleep.
"Pfft!" Liang Wei deflected a spear thrust at him with his own, then drove his spear straight into the chest of the Japanese soldier. As his warhorse continued to gallop, the Japanese soldier was knocked down by the momentum. Liang Wei tilted his right hand and, leveraging the horse's power, pulled his spear back out before thrusting it toward the next Japanese soldier.
Seeing You Jingyan smile like that, Cao Jingxiu knew that he was most likely about to fall into You Jingyan's trap once again. He was just about to open his mouth and find an excuse to distance himself from him.
He gazed in a momentary trance at this precious orb, then narrowed his eyes and reached out to grasp it in his palm. With just a firm twist, Ao Xu's figure materialized out of thin air.
After explaining the entire wine-distilling process, Jiang De began giving everyone a simple physics lesson. Jiang De had always believed that to accomplish something well, one must first understand its principles. Knowing only the result without knowing the "why" would at best make someone a practiced artisan, never a true master.
Huadiao was chatting with Hua Rong on the side, continuously adjusting his armor. This was the first time she and Hua Rong were proactively parting ways.
That was completely absorbed without a trace by the Primordial Pearl, and then converted into the kinetic energy of the supreme divine ability known as Temporal Slowdown.
This private broker appeared humble, smiling constantly, and sounded like a kind-hearted person when he spoke. Yet, anyone with a bit of insight would know that every single word he uttered reeked of capitalizing on human tragedy.
