“Our baby, give me back our baby...” The sharp voice was mixed with gurgling noises, as if the speaker had a mouthful of thick phlegm. The “tap-tap” of footsteps and the “slish-slash” sound of umbilical cords dragging across the ground grew closer, bringing with them a palpable chill. Huang Xiaofei understood Qi Si's actions and pointed at the ladle in his hand with a strange expression: “You call that a Red Frog?” “Close enough, as long as it works.” Qi…-

The next morning. Ding Suian stood outside his room, looking towards Huguai Garden. The trace of white light from last night had kept him up for half the night. After some guessing, he thought the problem might lie with Jiang Yuan. According to her, men's Yang energy prevented them from using the 'Flowing Wind and Cloud' melody as a cultivation method. Last night, Ding Suian personally played the zither, and she stood outside the door, listening to half of the Spell…-

Outside the door, Jiang Yuan hesitated several times but ultimately couldn't bring herself to leave, not because of the person, but because of the zither music. “May I ask, Young Master, from its title to its Concept, this Spell for Clearing the Heart and Universal Goodness is deeply imbued with Buddhist Zen. Why was it composed by a Daoist?” Squad Leader Ding Sui'an had just said it casually, without much thought, so he retorted, “Does Young Lady understand…

Night, the beginning of the hai hour. Ding Suian skillfully and easily climbed into Huguai Garden. He could clearly feel the silence within the Prince Lanyangs Estate. The estate originally had over two hundred servants, maids, Nannies, and house guards. After Lin Hansu's purge yesterday, those who were sold off were sold, and those who were dismissed were dismissed. Now, including the An Squad guards, only about forty people remained in the estate. With so few…

The twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month. Offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God, also known as Minor New Year. Lanyang Prefecture City was already brimming with New Year cheer, but Prince Lanyangs Estate, having suffered two major mourning events in one month, dared not show any celebratory signs publicly. At noon that day, a package was delivered to the Estate by the post service running between Central Heaven and Lanyang Prefecture. The recipient…

"Brother Sui'an, I was on duty just now, and I didn't see Steward Hou go to Huguai Garden." Hu Jiangjiu scratched his scalp, seemingly guilty and confused about the theft at Huguai Garden. The Soldiers of the An Squad residing in Diying Garden had long since noticed the commotion in the front compound. However, since the Princess did not call them to assist this time, the Soldiers, who were already unskilled in the private conflicts within the…

Ding Suian stayed up in the study for most of the night, only climbing over the wall to leave near the end of the yin hour. Upon returning to his residence, he chewed a huaju pill. Before long, the Zhongji Acupoint began to churn as if boiling. He guided the Qi upwards, passing through the Guanyuan and Shenque points straight to the Tanzhong point, before letting the Protective Aura permeate his skin, flesh, and muscles. To advance from the Chenggang…

The failure rate column displayed 【45%】, which was still within the acceptable range. What Qi Si found troublesome was the prompt text saying the Dean would come to see him tomorrow. According to his plan, tonight he and Lin Chen would search the bottom of the pond for the passage connecting the two hospitals, and if successful, they could try to advance the main quest tomorrow night. As for tomorrow during the day, they needed to quickly…

"Oh~ Young Master, look!" On the jujube tree, Lin Hansu suddenly raised her arm and pointed. Following her finger, eight black-clad cavalrymen galloped along Prefectural Front Street to the gates of the Lanyang Prefecture Yamen. After reining in their horses, the cavalrymen dismounted, forming two ranks before entering the Lanyang Prefecture Yamen. Their expressions were stern, their movements synchronized. From a distance, one could feel their imposing and…

The second quarter of the 戌 hour. Ding Suian had already left Ji Pavilion. Lin Hansu, on a whim, sat before her dressing table and, looking into the mirror, divided her long, flowing hair into two strands, attempting to style a 'Fenxiao bun,' which symbolized an unmarried woman. However, Lin Hansu's hair had been styled by Granny Xu since she was a child, and she had never done it herself. She fumbled with it, making a mess, and couldn't achieve the desired…
