章 825: Chapter 825 Save or Not to Save

The capital was still unsettled early the next morning, with everyone focused on the Palace, no, rather on how the Emperor would react. A night had passed, and everyone was waiting for the outcome—real or fake Prince, the biggest affair concerning the royal family since the founding of the dynasty.

In the farmhouse of the Zhou family, Zhou Shuren rose early, skipping breakfast to take his wife hiking. There were no particularly high mountains near the farmhouse, and though the paths were not the easiest to traverse, it did nothing to dampen the couple's enjoyment.

Having lived in ancient times for so many years, despite their initial struggles with rural life, they worked hard to integrate into ancient society. Once Zhou Shuren embarked on his journey as a Scholar, they became even more cautious, careful not to put a foot wrong. Now, though still surrounded by danger, they were confident—tired in spirit, but able to enjoy peaceful days.
