Capítulo 157: You Want A Punch? (I)

While Qiguan Rang was leaving with Wei Yuan, the master inquired eagerly, "Wenzheng, how do you find Lanting?"

The youngster looked at him, wondering what Liu She had said to prompt him to ask.

"The langjun is extraordinary," he replied and secretly studied Wei Yuan's countenance. "He can be a prominent official in a peaceful kingdom, or a powerful competitor for the throne in chaotic times."

Wei Yuan paused and struggled in his heart. He eventually let out a long sigh.

"From what Liu Zhongqing just said, I'm afraid our kingdom…" Unlike Jiang Pengji, he could not say out loud that Dongqing was dying. "The houses are controlling the court, and the princes are incompetent. Nansheng is also losing its war with the southern tribes…"

The dim future of Dongqing broke his heart, but he could do nothing to help.
