The Tyrannical Emperor Reborn Chapter 77

Chapter 77

It was the first time Shen Nian had experienced the feeling of being anxious for someone—a feeling of wishing he could bear all the suffering in that person's place, wishing he could clear every obstacle before him.

Because of all these nagging concerns, Shen Nian lost sleep.

But only for one night. The next night, just as he felt the Emperor's breathing become steady and even, he slowly opened his eyes, intending to ponder in the dead of night what he might have done inadequately.

Father Tang had known this plan was risky, but Second Brother Tang had said it was fine—worst case, he'd just come back. That morning, after he left, Father Tang paced restlessly outside the woodshed. Inside, Tang Daniang huddled in the straw pile, silent, her eyes hollow and lifeless.

She knew—her last chance to escape was gone.

She'd thought about running away instead of enlisting, of course she had. But she had no money, no way to find work in town, and she was a girl—where could she run? A man with no money could sleep on the streets, but could she?

Seeing Shen Nian's expression fall, Qi Junmu took his hand and gave it a reassuring pat. "Thinking of General Shen?" Compared with Marquis Shen, he still preferred calling Shen Yi "General."

Shen Yi had spent so many years at the border—more than "Marquis," the title "General" suited him better.

Shen Nian was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head.

Qi Junmu raised his brows in surprise. To him, Emperor Jing was a sovereign, a source of pressure.

Chapter 391

When the soldiers saw that Guaizai wouldn't listen to reason, they galloped back to Pingxiang Village at full speed to inform Fang Zichen, hoping that he would talk some sense into his son and not let this precedent be set. But Fang Zichen, after a moment's thought, simply said, "Let him do as he pleases." The soldiers had ridden all that way for nothing.

No matter how outrageous the common people found this, or how much they disapproved, if the prefect's son wanted to conscript, they had no say in the matter—after all, commoners didn't go against officials, did they?

Chapter 76

Qi Junmu did not summon Qi Junyan and Qi Junzhuo privately. Instead, he frequently called Xing Yi and Yang Jinglei to the palace. As for Cheng Jin, perhaps because of his status in the North Frontier Army, the Emperor only praised him verbally and never met him alone.

In the eyes of the court officials, the Emperor's actions showed his distrust toward Prince Jin, Prince Rui, and Marquis Zhenbei.

Some were worried about this; others were troubled.

Tang Daniang had worked hard her whole life—she was no delicate, fragile girl. She was from the village, timid by nature, and with all these men staring at her, of course she was scared. She felt embarrassed, even felt she was overstepping. But compared to being married off to a madman, all of that was nothing.

Tang Daniang went at it with one of the men. Fighting inevitably meant physical contact, and the onlookers found it utterly improper. What decent girl would behave like this?

Shameful. Absolutely shameful.

"Is Marquis Shen mocking me?" Qi Junmu tightened his arm, drawing the man closer. Dressed in their undergarments, they were pressed close enough to feel each other's warmth.

"This humble subject dares not. This humble subject has not. This humble subject is merely stating the facts," Shen Nian said, keeping his face straight.

Qi Junmu snorted twice and pinched his cheek. "Fine, I'll let you off this time." Then his other hand roamed over Shen Nian's body. "You've been nourished in the palace for so long—how are you still this thin?"
