At least there’s a wish to hold onto for a lifetime.” “Goodbye.” With those two words, the merchant turned and walked away briskly, not looking back.

Then, she picked up the large bags of candies and pastries by her feet.

Chapter 307: “Control”
Gu Ning'an’s words were calm and measured, yet to the ears of the cavalry, they struck like a thunderclap! In that moment, scenes from just days prior surfaced in their minds—when they had hunted down and slaughtered the refugees. Most of the refugees, upon seeing them, had even believed they were sent by the court to help. But when their blades fell upon those very people, the looks in their eyes—confusion and fear—remained etched in their memories, haunting them. Now, as Gu Ning'an brought it…-

"Outrageous! Simply outrageous!" "What is that Gu acting so arrogant for? He practically insulted us indirectly… Unbelievable!" "Just because he has the Fifth Prince’s token? He’s not even an official, yet he dares to speak so boldly in front of us!" "This is intolerable! That Gu doesn’t know what’s good for him. Minister Ma offered him wine and gold, and instead of accepting it graciously, he had the nerve to mock us!" In a long corridor, the officials who had followed Minister Ma and…
