Chapter 64

Strangely enough, fish naturally have a fishy odor, which is usually eliminated by using ginger and scallions or by draining the fish blood. However, the carp from Mandarin Duck Lake could simply be poached in plain water and eaten, completely devoid of any fishy taste, while being exceptionally fresh, sweet, tender, and smooth.

Among the medical arts of Hua Tuo, the Five-Animal Frolics and a few fine remedies for treating colds and chills have had very few inheritances passed down through the baptism of time.

Wu Song naturally guessed what was going on. Stealing the emperor's bestowed white jade horse and confessing to it meant certain death; even if he were innocent, he still had to die. This matter concerned Gao Lian's life and livelihood, and might even implicate Gao Qiu. To prevent any news from leaking, they could only silence him by killing him.

"Gold Chain, since you lost, you should accept the outcome gracefully. Don't you agree?" Yu Minghui stepped forward from behind Xia Haoyu, looked at Gold Chain, and said calmly.

An official runner shouted loudly. Bowing to the usual intimidation of the officials, the crowd raised the rotten eggs in their hands, but none dared to throw them.

This handsome fellow was usually quite obedient and well-behaved. What on earth has gotten into him today to actually dare run into my office?

"Haha, Paradise on Earth! Well, come to think of it, I've been busy as a dog lately, and I haven't been there in ages." On the other side, however, Yun Yang seemed rather enthusiastic. Recently, he had been swamped like a dog due to various matters, and seizing this rare opportunity to relax, how could he not go and have a wild time?

Suddenly, feeling this murderous aura, the two of them felt a chill in their hearts, and cold sweat broke out instantly. If the two of them disobeyed, the fellow in front of them would probably really kill someone.

Yet Hu Ye grabbed Hu Sanniang, gently pushed her aside, and rushed forward without the slightest hesitation. For Hu Ye, this was a prime opportunity to gain experience points, so he naturally wouldn't let it slip away easily.

Coral twirled and shook her garments, instantly twisting them into a long rope. Just at that moment, the foremost wolf leaped into the air, charging forward with bared fangs and hooked paws whistling through the wind.

"Very well, my questions are concluded. Does the public prosecutor or the defense have anything further to ask?" The presiding judge looked at the prosecutor, then glanced at Tang Lili.

Noble Consort De's previously glowing complexion dropped instantly. How could the measures she implemented be something a mere Ding Ruoxue could question? Moreover, through comparison, Ding Ruoxue's incompetence only highlighted Ding Jiuqi's beauty and astuteness.

Hua Jiaoniang departed immediately, scaling the wall from the side door to re-enter. Upon returning to her palace chambers, she saw her standing there in a daze. Hua Jiaoniang walked up to her; she was startled at first, but then offered a faint smile.

Having repeated the important matter three times, he gave Xuanyuan Yelan no chance to react, grabbed her hand, and pulled her toward the exit of the Fierce Wolf Valley.

Cecil's face was gloomy, his lips tightly pressed together, and his amber eyes fixed intently upon that figure. His whole body trembled, and his hands were clenched so tightly they had turned white.

The farce finally came to an abrupt halt. She was utterly exhausted in both body and mind, yet the court officials were now beginning to ostracize her, one after another plotting to drive her to her death.

Seeing that surge of spiritual power about to strike Xuanyuan Yelan's chest, Danqing cried out in despair, flinging herself forward to shield Xuanyuan Yelan with her body.

Liang Yunqian did not urge him to stay further, assuming the persona of a virtuous wife and devoted mother as she gently and tenderly watched Mu Weimin depart.

Early the next morning, Yun Zhi, who had not slept all night, rose at dawn and stepped out of the cave. Outside, the vast world was blanketed in silver, a pristine white as far as the eye could see.

After a very, very long time, Nannan finally fell soundly asleep in my arms. A wave of relief washed over me. Gently picking up Nannan, I carried her into the bedroom and closed the door behind me.

Tu Fengqi slightly lowered her gaze, her hands resting obediently by her sides, looking as respectful as could be, while her eyes burned with a chilling, hair-raising cold light.

Wu Jin truly regarded Xu Li as a friend now. Not wanting to see Xu Li suffer a disadvantage, he deliberately omitted the fact that Xu Li's donation was entirely uncompensated, and instead openly brought up the issue at the assembly.

When no one spoke for a long time, Chen Xi, who was eavesdropping, grew somewhat impatient. Continuing like this would yield no results at all.

As for whether the pigs inside would run out, he didn't worry about that in the least. If any of them managed to escape from Big Flower and Second Flower's "management," they deserved to be called formidable.

Suddenly, no one knew whose blade slashed out; missing its mark, it struck one of the carriage horse's legs instead, cleanly severing the limb in two.

"Alright. Now that everyone has finished offering incense, please follow me!" A staff member, noticing the situation changing and fearing further accidents, hurriedly guided the other tourists outside.

"Haha, although I'm not particularly fond of that Magneto fellow, this mutant ability of his is truly formidable!" Alexander laughed heartily. The hydrogen bomb flew right back, circled around in front of Alexander, and shot off in another direction once more.

Fortunately, the morning rush of free-of-charge meals was over, and the people outside had already dispersed after receiving the proprietress's promise.

"Everyone in the world says that you, Lin Zhengfeng of the new Lin Mansion in the capital, are a thoroughly good man, and talk about how great you are. But have you ever stopped to think that everything you have now was bought with their lives?" Zhou Muyuan cried out.

The old man smiled faintly, a trace of joy flashing deep within his eyes. He was around sixty years of age, though Ye Kai had no idea that this man was actually a master poison-maker—an exceptionally formidable master poison-maker.

That solid, grounded feeling traveled upward beneath Chen Xi's feet, and the view before her returned to brightness.

The spiritual energy in this immortal cave was slightly denser than anywhere else, previously serving as the cultivation spot for the patriarch of the Jiang family and his direct brothers.
