    • Chapter 153: A Gentleman’s Contest

      Chapter 153: A Gentleman’s Contest Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. 7-9 am, the sun was high. Yi Yiyi, who was accustomed to early rising, had been awake for over two hours. When she tried to get up for the third time, the arm wrapped around her waist stubbornly refused to let go, gentle but firm. "It's already 7-9 am ~" she said, her voice slightly hoarse with helpless urging. "Nothing to do today. Let's sleep until noon and then have lunch ~" Ding Suian kept his eyes closed, burying his nose in her cool,…

      Chapter 152: Returning to Koujian Pass Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 14th day of the twelfth lunar month. “Oh? You want to go to Koujian Pass?” In the East Warm Pavilion of the Cantian Hall, the Prince of Nanshun, dressed in python robes, sat behind the desk. “Yes, I hope Your Highness will grant permission.” A few steps away, Ding Suian stood tall. After returning yesterday, he had gone through proper channels via Li Qiushi to request an audience with the Prince of Nanshun. He had originally expected to…
    • Chapter 151 Morning, Imperial Study

      Chapter 151 Morning, Imperial Study Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 Ding Suian sat cross-legged in a corner of the Imperial Study. Only when the sunlight became blinding did he realize it was already broad daylight outside. He leaned back against the bookshelf and let out a long sigh. If the Southern Zhao version of history was true, then the alterations to the Great Wu history were far too extensive. The entire 'History of Xia' had almost entirely deleted all records regarding 'demonic evils'. The two-hundred-year 'Era of Seven…
    • Chapter 150: Secret History of the Ning Dynasty

      Chapter 150: Secret History of the Ning Dynasty Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month. Another day of doing nothing. He lay in bed until 7-9 am, when he suddenly remembered that Old Man had once said the Imperial Study of Southern Zhao contained the history of the Great Wu recorded secretly by historians. At the time, Ding Suian had doubted it, fearing he would never have the chance to visit the Imperial Study in the palace in his lifetime. But now things were…
    • Chapter 149: Lotus Heart, Conveying Feelings

      Chapter 149: Lotus Heart, Conveying Feelings Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 7-9 am sharp. Sunlight filtered through the carved lattice windows of the clouds, casting patterns of auspicious clouds onto the carpet. However, the weak and limp morning sun of winter, aside from making the Imperial Study look a bit brighter, brought no warmth. Emperor Zhao sat on the dragon couch. The waist he had forced to straighten during the morning court had completely collapsed by now; in two hours, he seemed to have aged ten years. State Preceptor sat on the…
    • Chapter 148: Forcing the Palace

      Chapter 148: Forcing the Palace Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The area in front of the Vermilion Bird Gate fell into an eerie silence. The Prince of Nanshun stepped out from the crowd at the perfect moment, his cold gaze sweeping across the front of the Vermilion Bird Gate and the top of the city walls. "The treacherous ministers have been executed; the rest of you are innocent! Anyone who dares to resist further will be treated as an accomplice to the rebellion!" Below the walls, the guards of the two princes were still in a state…
    • Chapter 147: Before the Vermilion Bird Gate

      Chapter 147: Before the Vermilion Bird Gate Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 It was exactly the mao hour. Yunzhou City was completely silent. One last check. Inside Prince Ren's Estate, there was the sound of clattering armor plates. Chest Hair patted himself down, confirming that his Wu Army armor was fastened tightly, and his saber at his hip and the golden melon hammer at his lower back were properly equipped. Xia Tieying quickly checked the Barrier-Breaking Bow, which had its string removed and was carried on her back disguised as an…
    • Chapter 146: Tomorrow, A Sunny Sky

      Chapter 146: Tomorrow, A Sunny Sky Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 In Southern Zhao, winter did not bring skies filled with heavy snow or howling northern winds. However, the endless winter rain was bone-chillingly cold. From the dusk of the third day of the twelfth lunar month until the night of the fifth, it had drizzled for two days and two nights, with no sign of stopping. Night, at the hour of Hai. A side courtyard in the rear residence of Prince Ren's Estate. The doors and windows were tightly shut. On the table inside, five types of grain…
    • Chapter 145: Zhao Ning’s Three Great Strong Supports

      Chapter 145: Zhao Ning’s Three Great Strong Supports Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 Normally, meeting a fellow disciple is a pleasant affair. Of course, there are also abnormal situations. Like right now, with the mutual recognition between Yi Yiyi and Zhao Yan. Back on the journey to Yunzhou, Nickname had accidentally caught Ding Suian and this seductive woman engaging in lewd acts in broad daylight, and had felt a dislike for her ever since. Later, when Zhao Yan straddled and hugged Ding Suian outside the Prince Ren's…
    • Chapter 144: Yi Yiyi Plots the Xuanwu Incident, the Little Fox Turns the Tables Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 "If the Princess and Prince Ren wish to sleep without worry, Prince De and Prince Rui had best die. If I wish to return north safely, I also hope they die. Therefore, we are in agreement on this matter." "The Dutou is being rather naive, aren't you? You are a Dutou from the State of Wu, leading no more than fifty men. To plot against princes in the imperial capital of our Great Zhao is simply wishful thinking." "Isn't there still the…
