The Rosy Tiger's Roar was indeed extraordinary; even the emperor was not immune to such things. While it could be a form of entertainment, there were simply too many Rosy Tigers in the harem now!
While Big Fatty Orange was flirting with his beloved Huanhuan at Suiyu Pavilion, Sun Miaoqing was busy with people in Yuanmingyuan.
In the past few days, for the purpose of conducting experiments, the thirty sheep that Big Fat Orange had sent to the Old Summer Palace have all been shaved.
