章 140: Chapter 33: Qing Han's Initiation Stage, Regaining Military Power, and Emperor's Army in Chang Ning

The bright sun shimmered on the grass, and the river's colors glazed across the curtains.

The hustle and bustle of the market remained as lively as ever beneath the blue canopy of Jinzhou City's sky.

It was rare for the shopkeeper to be absent on this day. Instead, a young girl in a rosy dress took his place, dozing off with her head on the counter.

This sight attracted many glances and whispers from passing pedestrians.

In the past, a powerful-looking woman would take over the shop when the shopkeeper was away. But now, even she was gone, leaving a young girl in charge.

Her willow-like eyebrows, fair and snow white skin, and a translucent blue shawl floating in the breeze all added to her faintly ethereal aura.
