Chapter 72 – Sinking the Enemy
by Salted Fish — Outside the cabin, orders echoed amidst bright flames. After the crew rescued them and led them into the cabin, a ship doctor came to examine their injuries.

On board, besides enjoying the scenery, we fish or play mahjong with my two cousins." "I caught some big yellow croakers, but out here at sea, I'm tired of eating raw fish, drunken shrimp, and crab.

Chapter 7 – Dreaming of You
by Salted Fish — Qiu Hu led him downstairs to the flower hall, "The food has been laid out below. Please follow me, esteemed guests, to have some hot soup and warm your bodies."

Chapter 67 – Never Forget
by Salted Fish — Xu Chun stood at the bow of the ship, watching the vast river wind. The initial excitement of setting sail had faded, replaced now with repeated thoughts of the letter he had written. Would Jiu-ge feel disrespected that he had departed on such an adventure with just a brief note? Would he think that Xu Chun didn't value their relationship? Jiu-ge must have thought him frivolous and impulsive from their first meeting. Now, he surely deemed him even less dependable. Moreover, Xu Chun would be away for…

Chapter 66 – Thinking of Faraway Places
by Salted Fish — Fang Zixing was utterly baffled and thought that he should ask His Majesty about his intentions when he entered the palace for duty tomorrow. Regardless, the emperor doted on the crown prince so much that, although this sum of money was negligible, it still represented a token of affection. Since the crown prince had given it to the emperor, His Majesty should accept it and then find some other treasure to give back to the crown prince. The two had been exchanging gifts these past few days, much like a…

He quickly jumped up and said, "Jiu Ge, have you eaten? Sit down for a bit; I'll go change my clothes." After saying that, he ran off, the sound of his wooden clogs echoing throughout the small building. Xie Yi chuckled softly. He straightened out his clothes and took off his outer robe, revealing the gauzy robe…

by Salted Fish — He Zhiqiu held a book in his hands, but a pure gold ginkgo leaf bookmark slipped out from within. He pinched the leaf-shaped bookmark, feeling a tinge of melancholy. Zhang Wenzheng had sharp eyes; he spotted it at once and exclaimed, "I think I've seen Xiao Jianwei with a similar gold bookmark." Xu Chun glanced up and smiled. "If Brother Zhang likes them, I can gift you a set. There are leaves, flowers, and beauties depicted on them." He Zhiqiu caught Fan Mukun looking at him with an odd, pensive…
