The Tyrannical Emperor Reborn Chapter 3 Part 2

Seeing the Empress Dowager's expression, Fuhua knew she was unhappy and quickly said, "Imperial Mother, you know that the Empress used to be very healthy. She's just exhausted from suddenly moving into the palace and not being used to it. I went to see her the day before yesterday—she drank a whole bowl of bitter medicine without blinking and downed it in one go. I could never do that. You can see she truly wants to get better soon."

The Empress Dowager thought about the sight of Wen Wan drinking her medicine and felt her mouth go dry with bitterness. She gave Fuhua a glare. "Such a glib tongue."

Qi Junmu's head felt heavy and muddled. His eyes were tightly shut, his consciousness bobbing between waking and sleeping. He couldn't open his eyes, and his whole body was weak, yet he was clearly aware of what was happening around him. 

He knew that the Empress Dowager had asked Bai Feng about his current condition.

Her unspoken meaning was clear—she already knew about the eunuch he had beaten to death at Qianhua Hall, and she was displeased. After all, Emperor Jing had only recently passed away; spilling blood in the palace was hardly a good omen.

Chapter 2

The Empress Dowager resided in Renshou Palace. By the time Qi Junmu arrived, she was leaning languidly against a warm daybed, looking unwell. Ruyan, the head palace maid of Renshou Palace, was massaging her shoulders, while the other palace attendants stood silently.

Chapter 1 

On the second day of the eleventh lunar month in the seventeenth year of the Da Qi Yonghe era, the year's first heavy snow began falling at dusk over Wenyao Pass, the most perilous stronghold on the northern frontier. Snowflakes drifted down from the cold, grey sky and continued for an entire day, carried by the wind onto people's bodies and faces.

The snow was heavy and the cold severe. Even with padded cotton clothes on, the cold still bit deep into the bones.

Chapter 100: Heading to Mount Li

Mu Lichuan originally thought he was just an ordinary cultivator, with no connection to schemes and plots, free to do whatever he wanted. But after crossing paths with Mi Shen, not only did bad luck cling to him, but he also had to personally handle everything related to Mi Shen. If that wasn't a recipe for an early death, what was?

Fang Zichen frowned. "No wonder when I went to fetch water and came back, you were gone. You're not fully recovered yet. Why chop firewood? Is there no firewood at home? If not, just buy some from He Xi!"
