Chapter 83: A Good Show, Shaking the National Fortune (Looking for more readings at the 4000th grand chapter!)_2

The Black Turtle and Ying Que were both intently watching. The surrounding Imperial Guards were shrouded in darkness. Only the lamplight by the emperor was casting light. The guards, due to the darkness, became more cautious and apprehensive.

The Emperor wanted to watch, as for how the Imperial Guards could react, their only option was to enhance the protective measures.

The shadow puppetry show was about to start. Delicate puppet figures were moving back and forth on the background fabric, manipulated expertly by experienced old masters from the back, making it exceedingly lifelike.

The common people underneath were watching intently. When the plot climaxed, deafening applause erupted.
