Chapter 112: Replacing Imperial Authority with Chancellor’s Power

Lin Gaoxuan stood dumbfounded for a long moment after hearing Su Li’s words. When the implications finally sank in, panic began to set in.

"Prime Minister! You were the one who gave me the medicine here just yesterday; how can you deny it today?" Flustered and abandoning all regard for rank, Lin Gaoxuan took two steps forward.

Su Li looked at Lin Gaoxuan, feigning surprise:...

The decor was a blend of the archaic and the luxurious, and even the bathroom was self-contained. Yet, as he faced that massive bed, he couldn't help but think of the one in his own home.

"What should I do?" Ye Qingcheng stared blankly at the ceiling, feeling utterly lost.

The young man on the boat across the way laughed heartily at our singing for quite some time before joining in himself. Once finished, he kept waving at us as a gesture of farewell.

She walked over, opened the car door, took a thick envelope from her bag, and placed it inside Lin Yuan’ai’s vehicle.

If only He Yi were here. If he were present, Gongye Nan would surely be safe. With this thought, the cold, handsome face of Shen Heyi appeared in her mind, and her heart, which had not felt pain for so long, throbbed instantly.

In his eyes, Li Rui was his savior, his god of wealth! He couldn't afford to offend such a person; he was far too busy trying to curry favor.

The more Ye Qingcheng thought, the more worried she became. But having come this far, no matter how terrified she was deep down, she could only take things one step at a time, moving forward bit by bit.

Mu Zi’ang examined them repeatedly, finally selecting a pale yellow shirt, a taupe pencil skirt, and a dark green trench coat to present to Ye Qingcheng.

The two Dragon-Gall Demon-Head Hammers, each weighing nine hundred catties, flew into his hands. This was not bullying Yuan Ben, who lacked a weapon; on the contrary, unleashing his greatest offensive power was a mark of respect for him.

Susan was shocked. These two units were remote-combat models other than her own; naturally, they hadn’t stayed huddled at the back of the formation like she had, but had long since soared to high altitudes. How had they been taken out so easily?

"No wonder I smelled something fragrant just now!" A voice, oily and filled with excitement, drifted out as the window rolled down.

Cong Xi scanned Song Su and Hua Yue; both possessed pure, simple features and gentle expressions, looking quite like a well-matched couple.

Su Suanyu shook his head, then with a flash of cold light from his long sword, the blade came to rest against Hou Congsheng’s neck.

He studied the map. Based on the proportions shown, the person closest to the so-called Toad Great Spirit was likely less than a thousand meters away.

The once peaceful Dade Temple was now permeated with the scent of blood. The streets were littered with the lifeless bodies of low-ranking monks.

She had talked until her throat was parched, yet Jiang Beiting ignored her completely. Eventually, even the man with the crew cut couldn’t stand it anymore.

This Dong Xiao—he used to be an actor, so when did he switch professions to become a music producer?

Investigation confirmed there were no signs of climbing or tampering on the room’s windows. With a constant flow of people outside day and night, and no one witnessing anything unusual, it could be concluded that no one other than the seven attendees had entered or exited the room. The killer had to be one or more of the five survivors.

Qu Zaichen frowned in confusion upon hearing this. The people in the garden were stunned for a moment before beginning to whisper loudly.

They were indeed acting with impunity; after all, once they had spoken, the crowd had engaged in quite a bit of discussion regarding Princess Mingzhu. If they were going to make arrests, would they really drag everyone present away?

The man before him felt a wave of speechlessness. It was all his master’s fault for being so haughty—too embarrassed to approach the young lady himself, he had sent him to suffer this ordeal instead.

"You went to buy medicine for me? You didn't have to go to such trouble." Cai Huiqin had no complaints about her mother-in-law; the woman had always taken good care of her. She knew clearly that it was Wang Guodong who had failed her, not his mother.
