"Pass this information to the Qin family secretly. Remember, make sure they don’t suspect that someone deliberately leaked it," Xiao Ming said. Wang Xuan remained calm as usual. "Your Highness, when this incident happened, I was sent to Dengzhou to collect debts. I attended Wang An’s banquet, where he got drunk and revealed the matter, including where the seventy-two bodies were buried. This time, I need to dig up the remains and stir up public opinion in Dengzhou. The Qin family will naturally send…-

The ravages of the barbarian invasion three years ago had left this city scarred and struggling to recover. The once-thriving Cangzhou now had a population of only thirty thousand.

Lu Fei, let’s see what you can do to me now, huh!" Lu Fei remained silent, his right hand suddenly drawing his sword. A flash of silver light followed, and two heads rolled to the feet of the merchant. "Ah! Murder!" The two courtesans screamed in terror and fled the room. The merchant turned pale and…

"Although Ming'er is known for his lack of discipline, the things he’s come up with this time are quite interesting. Nowadays, I use soap every day to bathe, and it leaves me feeling refreshed," Xiao Wenxuan said. Now, if he didn’t use soap, he felt uncomfortable, as if he hadn’t washed properly. "Your Majesty, indeed! We now use soap every day to wash our hands and bathe, and with the perfume, we feel so much more comfortable," one of the concubines chimed in. Xiao Wenxuan chuckled and gently…

Qingzhou. A gentle spring rain marked the end of the long, harsh winter. Spring had arrived once again, and the February breeze felt like a pair of scissors, cutting through the remnants of the cold. The arrival of spring was good news for Xiao Ming, but it wasn’t the only good news. The praise for the ox-powered waterwheel from the entire court had also reached Qingzhou, carried by the spring breeze. Following this, eight hundred thousand taels of silver arrived in Qingzhou. However, this was just…

A cold iron mask was slowly fitted onto Wang Xuan’s face, and Pang Yukun smiled. The next day, Xiao Ming met the Wang Xuan that Pang Yukun had spoken of—a pale, even malnourished young man. Could someone like this really handle the dark and dangerous work of a secret guard? "The heart is what matters most!" That was Pang Yukun’s explanation to Xiao Ming. Seeing the determination in Wang Xuan’s eyes, Xiao Ming chose to believe in him. After all, he currently had no better candidates, and Wang…

"Hydraulic Forging Press (water powered forging hammer)?" Chen Qi exclaimed in delight. These were terms he had never heard before. But he was already accustomed to Xiao Ming continuously creating these miraculous machines in the Mechanical Department. For him, it was a source of satisfaction. Xiao Ming nodded, found a chair to sit on, and offered Chen Qi a seat as well. He then began to explain the knowledge of plate armor and water-powered forging hammers to Chen Qi. Plate armor, which was phased out…

"Your Highness, the person I’ve found is on his way, but he’s actually a local. His name is Wang Xuan," Pang Yukun said. "Wang Xuan? Why does that name sound familiar?" Xiao Ming asked, puzzled. "Your Highness, do you remember when Qin Chuanyun accused Wang Chengchou? At that time, there was a scapegoat," Pang Yukun reminded him. Xiao Ming recalled. Back then, Wang Chengchou had pinned all the blame on a man named Wang Xuan, clearly using him as a fall guy. Wang Chengchou had even said that the Wang…

The delicious braised chicken from the previous night had satisfied everyone in the prince's residence. When Xiao Ming allowed the servants to eat his leftovers, it wasn’t out of disrespect. In this era, resources were scarce, and eating leftovers was a common practice. Even he occasionally ate leftovers, and since the braised chicken was served in a large iron pot, it wasn’t much different from sharing a meal at the same table. Moreover, braised chicken was a unique delicacy in the Great Yu Empire.…

"Your Highness, you’ll have to ask Chai Lingwu of Cangzhou about that," Wang Shijie said solemnly. Xiao Ming frowned. He had initially thought this was just ordinary horse smuggling, but Wang Shijie’s direct accusation of Chai Lingwu raised red flags. Chai Lingwu was the son-in-law of the Qin family, having married into their household. However, what truly concerned Xiao Ming wasn’t the rivalry between the Wang and Qin families, but the fact that the Prince of Wei was smuggling horses. Had Chai…
