The Tyrannical Emperor Reborn Chapter 9 Part 2

After Ruan Jiqing was gone, Yutao rose to her feet, her face ashen. She walked to Wen Wan's side and called out, "Niangniang."

She felt nothing but disgust for the palace attendants who had been left behind. She worried that spies might be among them — and even more, she worried that the Emperor now harbored resentment against the Empress. 

A flicker of frustration passed through Wen Wan's eyes. Ruan Jiqing's interruption had made it impossible for the moment to shake off the accusation she had hoped to dispel.

Guaizai talked to himself, making it seem very real.

"You do? Big brother misses you too. Oh, you ask what big brother ate today? Big brother ate chicken meat today."

"Was the chicken meat tasty? Of course it was! Rich but not greasy, tender and delicious. When you come out, Big brother will personally kill a chicken for you to eat. Is big brother good? Do you love big brother?"

Chapter 9 

Ruan Jiqing rushed with his people to Renshou Palace, but the Empress Dowager refused to see Wen Wan altogether. Instead, she sent Ruyan to send her away.

The Empress Dowager was indeed somewhat angry with Qi Junmu, feeling that he had done wrong. Wen Wan could act this way, but the Empress Dowager could not simply accept it.

Wen Wan's actions were a blatant slap to the Emperor's face. If the Empress Dowager accepted Wen Wan's plea of guilt, then the next day at court, someone would surely use this incident to attack Qi Junmu, calling him unfilial for angering his mother.

Chapter 355

The news that the Prefect of Hezhou had been beheaded quickly reached the capital.

Several officials who had been waiting for Xia Jinghong to cool down before pleading for mercy were left dumbfounded. Well, no need to plead anymore. 

Just as a kingdom cannot be without a ruler, a prefecture cannot be without a leader. After deliberation among the court officials, Xia Jinghong decided to transfer the Deputy Prefect of Shangyang to Hezhou.

Around noon, the twins were relatively calm. But in the evening, when Fang Zichen and Guaizai came home and touched Zhao Ger's belly, as soon as they said a few words, the two little guys would react strongly—as if they knew their father and big brother were back. They seemed to have ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder). 

Sometimes Fang Zichen thought they might be staging a martial arts fight inside Zhao Ger's belly, or perhaps the two brothers were bickering and coming to blows. Sometimes, Zhao Ger's belly would visibly shift—one moment a tiny footprint poking out, the next a small fist about the size of a quail egg. It was almost like a scene from a horror movie.

Chapter 8

When Lin Xiao left the palace, he had initially thought of trying to persuade the Empress Dowager a bit more. Qi Junmu was the emperor now, and the blood of Emperor Jing flowed in his veins. If there were a rift between the Empress Dowager and him, it would not only look bad but also give those with ulterior motives something to exploit.

In Lin Xiao's view, those with ulterior motives included the dull and foolish Prince Rui, Qi Junyan; the world-renowned Prince Ping, Qi Junyou; and even Qi Junzhuo, whose reputation was so obscure that people called him an omen of misfortune.

Chapter 354

The children hadn't slept enough, so lessons were a complete daze. In the morning, Grand Tutor Ji would lecture and explain, and in the afternoon, he'd have them recite and copy texts. Most couldn't memorize the passages even after the whole afternoon. Those who did manage stumbled through haltingly. It wasn't that they were slow—they were just low on energy. Without any sense of urgency or proper atmosphere, they were basically just going through the motions. 

Every morning, Guaizai was the only one full of life in the classroom. The others looked completely wilted, as if they hadn't eaten for days and had no strength left.
