Sigh

In the Jiangnan territory, the spring weather had already enveloped Xi Lake. Beside it, the colors of spring were even more intense in the Peng family's garden. All along the back of the manor, green trees happily stretched out their branches and greedily sucked in the sunlight that warmed by the day.

However, the owner of this country estate was not very happy and did not have the leisure to stretch out his body. With a pained expression, he read through the reports and bulletins were sent over from Jingdou. He even read the flower-edged newspapers the Palace published. He was still unable to relax.

In the end, he quietly communicated with Shi Chanli about the information that came through Baoyue Brothel and confirmed that the incident happened just as the reports said.
