Volume One, Chapter 28: Helping the Crown Princess Relieve Her Menstrual Cramps

"If it is indeed as the Crown Prince says, that this liquor can increase tax revenue for the imperial court and bring benefits to the people, then that would naturally be for the best. However, it must be strictly regulated, and detailed rules and procedures must be established to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation to cause trouble or disrupt the market."

Li Chengqian bowed upon hearing this and said,

I shook my head. It must be that my frequent contact with him lately has caused me to have illusions, leading me to let my imagination run wild.

Prime Minister Su’s expression remained unchanged. Seeing her father so steady, Su Yuebai suddenly lost her fear; if she were to show cowardice now, wouldn't it be a confession of guilt? This Lin Chenyu was truly adept at psychological warfare.

"Oh, just have a little. This is authentic 1982 Lafite; a little is good for your health." Wu Junhao insisted on pouring a glass for Yan Ruyu.

Zhan Qianche’s voice was very soft, yet it carried a sense of reality completely different from that in her dreams. His fingers, as they brushed against her bangs, felt warm and distinct.

"Never heard of us? That’s only natural. Our company is situated right beneath the Emperor’s feet; those of you in such a tiny, insignificant place wouldn't know us," President Zang sneered.

Upon returning to the dormitory, the first thing Qin Pan did was wash off the clothes and makeup. Good heavens, he couldn't live in this state; although it was quite handsome, if he were a modern person, he had to accept reality.

Elder Shi withdrew his gaze from Lei Yuan. For some reason, a foreboding premonition stirred in his heart.

But she could no longer care about that. Feng Yu looked severely injured, and she didn't know what had happened; she couldn't rest easy without checking on him.

Put it this way: in a sect with flourishing fortunes, the quality of spiritual roots of those born on their land is generally excellent, and even the cultivation of spiritual energy is much richer than in other places.

"I am here to talk business." Sumu had not only changed his appearance but his voice as well. Among these classmates, even those who were familiar with him would not be able to recognize him.

However, he only treated outsiders this way; he acted differently toward the imperial clans and nobility. In Chu Ling’s view, this was not thorough enough; the imperial clans should also be subject to the same system.

Although she had almost recovered, whenever she felt out of sorts, she would pluck a few feathers, feeling that she could gain some energy from it.

Even if the compensation awarded by the court fell far short of the private settlement, it was not a problem at all for Lu Yiming.

Lu Zheng let out a cold snort and, with the powerful spiritual energy of the fifth level of Qi Refining, struck down with a move called "Cleaving Mount Hua."

He once again ordered the company's PR team to remove the trending topic and told them to keep an eye on it, spending money to remove trends and lower heat whenever necessary.

The brass-knuckle-wielding man had always been confident in his strength. Hearing the mockery of his teammates behind him, his face darkened.

She trembled as she pushed Lu Zheng away, shrinking back without a word, as if she viewed Lu Zheng as a venomous pest.

In the end, Zhan Feng accompanied Ye Jin-huan through breakfast before picking up his luggage and rising to leave, not letting Ye Jin-huan see him off.

Originally, Li Zhong had thought that the new monarch would be curious about the various markets in the city, such as the Curio Street, the Exotic Beast Street, the Antique Street, and the theaters, all of which were very famous in Yudu.

A high-pitched voice rang out before the imperial dais, and the official in charge of inspection announced loudly. Soldiers of the Imperial Guard scattered everywhere took up the chant, though many felt a sense of alarm in their hearts.

If Duke Ayden were the only one holding the situation together, he would have no confidence in obtaining reinforcements from the home planet.

Leng Ji walked up to Ji Ziqi, his gaze sweeping over the arm she had linked with Helian Yu, his eyes darkening slightly.

Legend has it that when the Huihui cannon attacked Xiangyang, the Song army, which had held the city for six years, could no longer endure it, and many generals jumped over the walls to surrender.

Since he had guessed the opponent's possible strategy, and in order to lure them into attacking that point, Huang Mingyuan deliberately made the defense of the high slope appear loose, hoping to lull Jiang Yishi into a false sense of security.
