Chapter 54: He is the Emperor of Yan Country The iron chains were unlocked, and Shen Zhejiang lost his support. However, as he fell, two prison guards on either side grabbed his shoulders. The bamboo and wood clattered as a finger-thick wooden clamp was displayed before Shen Zhejiang. "A father's debt is repaid by his son; this is the natural order. Since Shen Jinmo is already dead, you will take his place in admitting fault and atoning for his crimes to this governor. Kneel!" Governor Yang flicked his…-

Chapter 53: Falling Into Captivity "Crack!" Accompanied by a horrifyingly crisp sound echoing within the prison, Shen Zhejiang felt the skin on his body being torn into shreds. His lowered face was obscured by his disheveled hair, making it impossible to see his expression. He resembled a soulless walking corpse. The jailer glanced at Governor Yang, who was sitting behind the desk, reviewing the case. Seeing him calmly resting with his eyes closed, without giving any orders, the jailer once again raised…

Chapter 52: He Can't Gamble with Xiao Zhinian's Life The witness was brought forward. When Shen Zhejiang clearly saw the old, sallow face of the man, he exclaimed in surprise, "Why is it you?" It was the Zhao family's steward. "It was him who kidnapped the young master from my residence! This humble one personally saw him taking the young master out of the city gates under the cover of night. After that, the young master never returned!" The steward knelt on the ground, identifying Shen Zhejiang's…

Chapter 51: The Evidence is Solid, Take Him Away Xiao Zhinian naturally didn't dare to be careless when applying the medicine for Shen Zhejiang. Once everything was done, he placed the medicine bottle on the table and, unexpectedly changing his previous behavior, carefully folded Shen Zhejiang's clothes layer by layer, and fastened his belt. Shen Zhejiang was a little unaccustomed to this. At this moment, Xiao Zhinian's soft whispers drifted into his ears. "I will find Zhao Xiao Si for you. You don't…

Chapter 50: He's Just a Hoodlum Through and Through He met Shen Zhejiang's eyes, which were shimmering with flecks of light. So beautiful, he could never get enough of looking at them. If they returned to the Capital City, would he still be able to see them? How many more times would they have such tender moments together? Shen Zhejiang, not understanding, asked, "Is there something on my face? Why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Zhinian suppressed his sadness, forced a bright smile, reached…

He had witnessed Shen Zhejiang soaring to great heights. As soon as it dawned, Shen Zhejiang was vaguely awakened from his sleep by a burnt smell. What time was it? He remembered that he was lost in thought in the middle of the night, unable to sleep, and then he didn't know how, but he seemed to have dozed off for a while in a daze. He reached over to the spot where Xiao Zhinian was originally lying, but it was empty. The person was gone, but the bedding still retained some warmth, so it seemed that…

Chapter 48: Let's Go Back Together On the way back, Xiao Zhinian suddenly thought about how Shen Zhejiang addressed Zhao Xiaosi, feeling it was a bit too affectionate. So, he asked, "Why does Teacher care so much for Zhao Xiaosi?" Shen Zhejiang didn't hide anything and said directly, "He once studied under my sect, learning to read and write." Xiao Zhinian's tone was so sour it could make teeth fall out: "With his little brat self, what big words can he know? He's not even as good as me." Shen Zhejiang…

Chapter 47: But It Wasn't a Good Dream Either Chapter 47 But It Wasn't a Good Dream Either Zhao Jianji, upon hearing that Xiao Zhinian had come to visit and offer condolences, was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He rushed straight from the courtyard and performed a grand salute to Xiao Zhinian. What opportune timing. "..." Xiao Zhinian straightened his face and cleared his throat lightly. "This official is already aware of the matter in your residence." "Your Honor, you must help this…

Chapter 46: Where the Heart Finds Peace, So It Is Chapter 46: Where the Heart Finds Peace, So It Is The morning light was faint, and there weren't many pedestrians on the road, but Xiao Zhinian, dressed in disheveled clothes, running wildly through the streets, attracted a lot of strange looks, people thinking he was crazy, all keeping their distance. Xiao Zhinian was single-mindedly focused on seeing Shen Zhejiang, and didn't notice any of these people at all. The Zhao family's incident was no…

Chapter 45: Why is He Foolishly Meddling in the Zhao Residence's Affairs? "Fire! Someone, come quickly! Hurry!!" The fire spread from the Zhao manor like water being splashed, the night wind blowing fiercely, and huge flames devoured every corner of the courtyard. Zhao Jianji, draped in a water-soaked bedding that a servant had given him, ran out of the house, gasping for breath after only a few dozen steps, but fortunately, he had escaped with his life. "Hah—a narrow escape means good fortune ahead,…
