Chapter 223: Late Night Entry into the Palace! The Empress Learning New Positions!
The atmosphere on the street was deathly silent.
The procuress and the guests stood frozen in place; everything had happened so quickly that they were unable to react for a moment.
Looking at the charred corpse on the ground, everyone’s faces were filled with bewilderment.
What did that old man say just now?
Heir?
“Is this the Heir Chu of the Prince Yu Estate?!”
“N-no way…”
Inside the pavilion, Yang Lin slumped to the floor.
Gazing at that already
But what they did not know was that the restrictions within the Floating River were too great; players who had not truly entered it could not comprehend that sense of powerlessness. Even so, a wave of sighs still echoed out.
In his fury, Han Pin paid no mind to Zhu Xiao’s fire fist; he passed directly through the fire fist and smashed his own fist toward Zhu Xiao once more.
From the moment Zhu Xiao began refining, more and more people gathered on the vast square, all silently waiting for the moment Zhu Xiao succeeded. They would laugh and discuss from time to time, and at other times they would all gasp in astonishment together, just like that, letting time gradually slip away.
However, what Old Cheng said at this moment seemed to be implying that Jia Sidao was being a bit too generous with his money.
Geniuses always have proud hearts. This is also the biggest reason why Lin Yi is still remembered by Long Sha to this day.
For example, for collectors holding jade-type jadeite collections, the staff at the entrance would direct them to queue up and wait over at Zhou Fugui’s side. As for collectors holding jadeite-type ornaments, the staff would, depending on the situation, direct them to Ji Yanran or Jia Sidao to perform the appraisal.
It seems this elf must have some special technique, which is why it can use trees to escape. However, Ye Qing was not clear on information regarding elves, nor did he know that elves possessed special abilities related to trees.
As the most capable descendant of the Holy Fire Emperor, it was only natural that Princess Lan Xue possessed such a castle-style palace. It was just that Ye Qing felt a trace of something strange from this castle. He just couldn't put his finger on exactly where the strangeness lay for the moment.
Ding Xiu took another step back, but he didn't expect to bump into Lei Hao’s back. That guy was chatting away animatedly with Zhang Er Man and hadn't noticed the situation on Ding Xiu’s side at all.
Li Sefei couldn't help it and let out a "Pfft!" laugh. Looking at Ding Xiu, whose face was the color of a pig’s liver, she nearly choked.
After finishing the meal, everyone discovered there was nothing left, including the staple food. Everyone was full, and not a single bit of this meal was wasted, causing Fang Mei and Piao Fenglan’s plan to take some leftovers home to fall through.
Although everyone said they should present a united front against outsiders at this time, there were still many factions involved. This soldier’s attire looked like that of a local army soldier, and the person discussing with him was clearly from the central army, as could be seen from their clothing. It was very rare that they were speaking Cantonese between them.
The bang-bang-bang of knocking on the door startled him awake; the knocking was very urgent, not like that of a family member or Lin Yang.
“He said for you to take good care of yourself, not to look for him, and that on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month three years from now, he will come to see you.” Marquis Cheng told Bai Zhi the words Chu Yan had left behind, feeling very anxious in his heart as well.
Militarily, the Yellow Turban Army killed county magistrates, resisted government troops, and even nearly completed the siege of the Eastern Capital, Luoyang, toppling the Eastern Han Dynasty. Although they were eventually suppressed, it also exposed the reality that the government troops controlled by the imperial court were incapable of fighting. The capital was thrown into a state of panic, and the world was shaken.
The Union-Character Life Art was very effective. After Xiao Yu tried it several times in succession, he finally merged all the birds into the brood nest. When everything was finished, the brood nest had doubled in size; it looked like it would be very conspicuous if Xiao Yu tried to carry it alone.
As for Bao Zhu, Xue Tao, and Dad Yuan Defu, they were all carrying large bags. Xue Tao was wearing casual clothes today, with a large backpack on his back and two large tote bags in each hand. Holding them, he and his father also had two large bags each. This was over 200 yuan; at that time, there were no large-denomination bills, so they could only bring it this way.
