"Go! Of course we have to go!"
After taking a sip of wine, Shen Zhao answered very decisively.
"I've invested a lot of time and money in this girl."
If they don't make her the empress, then everything will have been for nothing.
"I absolutely cannot do a losing business. Until this is done, no one will escape my grasp."
When do you plan to leave?
"Wait a few days, there are still some minor matters to take care of. Liang Hao, you'll come with me to the Su family in the Southern Region!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dugu Xin volunteered, "Elder, we have just joined the Court of Judgments and have not yet made any contributions. May we accompany you?"
Shen Zhao directly refused: "The three of you shouldn't get involved in this for now. Now that you've joined the public trial committee, go and take care of something."
Last year's and this year's dues haven't been paid yet. Could you go to the General Assembly headquarters for us and pay them on my behalf?
Upon hearing this, Dugu Xin immediately asked, "May I ask, Elder, how many spirit stones are needed?"
"The membership fee is five hundred low-grade spirit stones per year."
"Don't worry about how much I'll pay. I'll take care of this little thing. I'll pay for thirty years' worth first, so I won't have to run back and forth later."
Anyway, Dugu Xin had received quite a bit of benefit from participating in the suppression of the rebellion in the Northern Region, so he didn't feel bad about taking out some scraps as membership fees.
Shen Zhao was very satisfied; this guy really knew what he was doing.
"Also, go to the weapon crafting pavilion and buy everyone a flying magical artifact. It's inconvenient to keep relying on renting flying beasts."
Nowadays, everyone's status is different, and people need to maintain a certain image when they go out.
Dugu Xin nodded: "Leave it to me. I'll cover all the expenses for the flying artifact. Elder, please rest assured."
"Um!"
After explaining the matter, Shen Zhao pointed to the dragon throne made from Ziyun ore stolen from the imperial treasury and said directly, "Master Ding, to be honest, I've taken a liking to this throne, so you'd better get down here right now."
Without saying a word, Ding Bu'er immediately stood up, wiped the chair arm with his sleeve, and fawned, "There aren't many things that can interest Master Chen. Alright, this chair is yours to enjoy by yourself, Master Chen."
Shen Zhao didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly.
"Feels good, fucking good!"
He stretched lazily, then got up and walked out of the hall.
"Where did Master Chen go?"
"Repair the Imperial Seal!"
...
While Shen Zhao was repairing the Mountain and River Seal with the help of the Purple Star Emperor's Qi inside the Azure Cloud Immortal Palace, the young lady of Wang Changgui, a local tycoon, finally found a satisfactory husband.
"The beautiful spring scenery is not as good as a dream, where the grass smells sweet..."
Just one day later, the Wang family held a grand wedding and hired a band with a modern entertainment style to attract attention with their music and performances.
At the same time, Wang Changgui also set up hundreds of banquet tables, and all the people in the city, whether rich or poor, who came to offer their congratulations could get a table and have a few bites of the celebratory feast.
It wasn't that Wang Changgui was some kind of great philanthropist; it was simply because his daughter, Wang Cuihua, was so strikingly beautiful that it was truly breathtaking.
It's so shocking that it has drawn the attention of teenagers who rely on Japanese adult entertainment culture to fill their spiritual voids.
It could make a rapist addicted to picking flowers turn himself in, crying and begging to be shot to escape punishment.
It could make a sea king who owns hundreds of ships see through the vanities of the world, become a monk, and travel westward as an ascetic.
Some people even castrated themselves without hesitation after just one glance at Wang Cuihua.
Therefore, when they heard that Wang Cuihua was getting married, all the unmarried men in the surrounding villages breathed a sigh of relief.
Now I'm finally free from being worried about, and I must thank the brave person who carried the burden for me.
His fearless spirit deserves to be worshipped.
But none of this mattered to Tang Ran.
In his words, how could the thinking of a bunch of ants compare to that of a dragon king with such high status as me?
As someone who's a professional son-in-law, how could I not handle this kind of thing with ease?
After the wedding night ended, Tang Ran, dressed in her wedding attire, stumbled and staggered into the bridal chamber, being pushed and shoved by the servants in the mansion.
When he saw the bride sitting on the edge of the bed, wearing a red veil and with a body the size of a water vat, Tang Ran's soul trembled uncontrollably.
"Holy crap, this is a high-level game."
He tried to calm himself down, constantly telling himself not to panic. He had been through this before, and it wasn't his first time being a live-in son-in-law.
So, he sighed, feigning helplessness, and said directly to Wang Cuihua, "My lady, I know there is no emotional foundation between us..."
Please rest assured, I will not touch you until you truly accept me, and only then will you be completely willing.
After saying that, he quickly prepared to go to the study next door.
"What did you say!"
As a result, these words aroused Wang Cuihua's strong dissatisfaction. She directly tore off the veil, stood up and shouted, "Where do you think you're going? On this joyous day, are you planning to abandon your bride?"
Tang Ran glanced back and was immediately jolted awake, almost collapsing to the ground.
He stared wide-eyed at the woman before him in disbelief, as if he were seeing the most human-like creature in the world.
His throat tightened, yet he couldn't find the words to describe her appearance.
Wang Cuihua's hair was messy and frizzy, piled up on her head like a bunch of weeds, sparse, yellowish, and a bit bald.
His face was covered with wrinkles and spots, his skin was loose, and his eyes were sometimes so small that they were almost invisible, and sometimes as wide as copper bells.
In addition, he has a flat nose, thick lips, and crooked, black and yellow teeth, which makes people think of Gollum from Lord of the Rings.
