Chapter 286: Distributing Silver, Second Watch (1)_1
At dusk, a few horse-drawn carriages arrived at the Clan Leader’s mansion situated in the heart of Mu Family Village, stopping at the family’s main entrance.
A refined and elegant young man slowly disembarked from the carriage. Adorned with a gold crown and resplendent clothes, his handsome face was unparalleled in grace. Following him was a short, chubby old man in his seventies, with kind and benevolent expressions, who frequently bowed to the onlooking villagers walking around.
Five muscular men alighted from the two carriages behind them. These men, possessing robust physiques and orderly demeanour, carried large boxes on their shoulders after dismounting.

For her, the Master would even dare to defy the Empress, causing her undue worry, and to publicly confront Tianjizi, disregarding his own safety.
And, of course, for her, the Master would even deploy them, the secret guards, to rescue the villagers and pose as her benevolent figures donating silver taels as disaster aid, all of these were not surprising!
"Hey, valiant man, don’t you recognize me? I’m Mu Sanniu, the nephew of the old man who you rescued last night..."
