"Good disciple, I ask, you answer, understood?" Xu Jiuxi, as supple as if she had no spine, dropped from the crossbeam of the Sunset Pavilion with a 'pat', then slowly straightened her body and took a step forward.

Chu County Dukes Residence, second courtyard flower hall. Regarding the sudden visit of the Princess Consort of Lanyang, not only were Li Meimei and Gao Gan surprised, but Ding Suian was equally taken aback. It wasn't that Lin Hansu had never been here before, but in the past, she had either snuck in secretly, climbing over the wall in the middle of the night, or arrived openly during the day under the guise of official business. Appearing openly in the…

5:00 PM. Nine Gates Patrol Yamen. With the end of the shift approaching, Ding Suian did not slip away early as he usually did. Last night was awkward.

In the East Courtyard of the Estate's back residence. Lin Hansu, who was 'not concerned with others' affairs and was purely helping Ruan Ruan' out, tried hard to maintain an official and calm demeanor.
