Chapter 556: The Last Time

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zeng Sanshui lay on the comfortable sofa and thought about returning to the Ling Kingdom the day after tomorrow.

He had only been in Ling Kingdom for a few months, but he actually felt a little reluctant.

He felt for a piece of chocolate and put it in his mouth. It was not surprising that he was reluctant. After all, life in the Carefree Kingdom was too comfortable.

The private car factory founded by Yu Suisheng had successfully produced three Beetle cars.

Zeng Sanshui wanted to buy it, but he was rejected because he did not have money in his pocket and was not from Carefree Kingdom.

He also understood that with such high-end technology, it would be a huge loss to them if he brought the car back and it was made.

Since he couldn’t buy a car, he had to hurry up and buy more things.

He had to buy the medicine that his mother needed to take, as well as glass, pearl, clothes, rouge, and makeup that the women at home liked. In any case, it was not expensive.

His eldest son and youngest son were a little short-sighted, so he bought a few glasses.

He had to buy sunglasses too. In case of a war, he could still act cool and block the sun and observe the terrain.

He also had to prepare more snacks and canned food for the children.

Especially the chocolates he loved. It would be best if he could get a hundred boxes.

The local sports shoes and cowskin boots were comfortable and convenient. He could also buy dozens of pairs and bring them back as gifts.

He did not have much knowledge, but the local education in Carefree Kingdom was still very good. He even found a few books interesting.

He could buy some textbooks, magazine and novels for the children. They should like them too.

There were also those convenient and useful learning tools that he could buy and stock up on.

Zeng Sanshui had bought more than a dozen carts of things. After paying taxes, the total price had more than tripled.

It made him afraid that if he stayed for a few more days, his assets would really be emptied by the Carefree Kingdom.

However, at the thought that he might not be able to eat or use the things on the way back to the country in the future, he steeled his heart and kept buying.

It took them a full month and a half to set off from Carefree City and return to the border.

When they returned to the Ling Kingdom’s Imperial City, if it was fast, it would take four to five months. If it was slow, it would take at least half a year.

Zeng Sanshui was envious again. He had heard that they were going to build some trams on the wide road in the Ling Kingdom. The originally half-month journey would be covered in less than a day.

If he had first arrived, he would have found it unbelievable.

However, after seeing the cars, cruise ships, phones, and refrigerators made by the research institute… Not only did he believe it, but he was also looking forward to it.

Zeng Sanshui and Qu Yuanxian staggered back to the country. Chu Mingxuan had been under house arrest in the temple for almost a year.

For the past year or so, he had lived an isolated life. Fie had three meals a day and only vegetables. There was no meat or fish at all.

He did not know when such bitter days would end.

Finally, it was almost Emperor Ling Hui’s birthday banquet.

The ministers felt that Chu Mingxuan could not be missing, so they asked Emperor Ling Hui to release him.

Chief Zhang, who knew some inside information, felt that Emperor Ling Hui would definitely not let him go easily.

However, when someone asked for a decree, Emperor Ling Hui immediately got someone to release Chu Mingxuan.

It made people think that Emperor Ling Hui had not let Chu Mingxuan go because he was actually waiting for a way out.

When Chu Mingxuan saw the people from the palace, his ecstatic expression was filled with ruthless determination.

He could not wait for Bai Shining to poison Chu Tianbao’s family to death.

As long as Emperor Ling Hui died, he would be the legitimate heir.

He found Quan Jiuzhou and knelt in front of him.. He hid the maliciousness in his eyes and begged, “Uncle, help me one last time!”
