A Time-Traveling Mishap: I Became an Ancient Nobleman

Chapter 259 must be divine retribution, right?

Liu Niang handed her another booklet, saying, "Take a good look at it when you have time. This is about the forces and industries that our Dark Night has distributed. I'll take you there to show your face later."

Zhou Hanzhang took it and opened it. She was shocked when she saw it. She really didn't expect that Dark Night had so many businesses.

Looking at these densely packed industries, which resemble a spider web, they may seem chaotic, but their distribution is actually quite meaningful.

She knew that this was not an empire that could be conquered overnight.

She was shocked that Liu Niang, who had only known her for a short time, was willing to entrust these things to her.

At this moment, Zhou Hanzhang felt no joy, but rather a strong sense of responsibility. She was a little worried about what would happen if she didn't handle the situation well.

And then there's Shen Moli, her senior brother.

When I met him at Tianan Academy, I only thought he was sickly and weak. According to my cousin, he was the most feared of the four oddballs. Who would have thought that he was actually the eldest disciple adopted by Liu Niang?

"Master, this..."

She held the booklet and felt it was incredibly heavy. "You gave all of this to me, but what about my senior brother?"

Liu Niang gets annoyed whenever Shen Moli is mentioned. "Don't even mention him to me. That good-for-nothing can just live his life with his bottles and jars!"

"...Um, how about I take it and discuss it with my senior brother first?"

It wasn't that Liu Niang didn't really want Shen Moli to take over; it was just that she had given up on it long ago and only intended to leave the medicine-related pharmacies and clinics to him.

"No need, just take it."

Zhou Hanzhang could only accept it for now, but he would just send it to Shen Moli when there was a share of the profits. He didn't want to manage these businesses, but he couldn't just turn down money. After all, money could buy many medicinal herbs he wanted and find people to test new drugs. That way, he wouldn't be disliked wherever he went.

With that in mind, she put the booklet away.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I'd like to ask Master for help with."

"What's the matter?"

Zhou Hanzhang told Liu Niang about Lisa and her husband's situation. Liu Niang had lived most of her life and had heard all sorts of things, but this was the first time she had ever heard of something so shocking.

She could hardly believe it. "Are you talking about that very beautiful princess from the United States?"

Remembering Lisa's beautiful appearance, "It's her."

"But I've never heard of her disappearance. Over the years, the King of the United States has indeed been sending people out, but he hasn't told anyone what they're looking for. So we only know one thing and not the other. I never imagined it would be like this."

However, I remember hearing that he had a stunningly beautiful woman by his side who bore him a son, but that son was rather strange; he was probably Princess Lisa's child.

Even with her heart as firm as a rock, Liu Niang couldn't help but be moved at this moment. "Princess Lisa finally escaped the clutches of evil. If she were to be taken back by that pervert this time, she would probably be dead."

"The master of disguise you mentioned is indeed one of us in the Dark Night faction. He seems to have quite a few disciples and followers, but his relationship with us is rather peculiar..."

Zhou Hanzhang listened quietly as Liu Niang continued, "He is actually one of our people, but he is not entirely affiliated with Dark Night, so he is not a part of our business. However, if we need him, we can contact him. He seems to be in the capital recently."

Liu Niang recalled the last letter she received. The person seemed to have told her to come to the capital as soon as possible, describing how beautiful and wonderful the capital was, and wishing she could come immediately.

He was one of the reasons she wanted to develop her career in Beijing.

Zhou Hanzhang was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this. "When would be a good time for Master to introduce me? People from the United States are coming soon. I'm currently hiding Princess Lisa and her husband in a courtyard in the west of the city. If they can't change their appearance, they'll probably never be able to show their true faces to the public."

"It just so happens that I also need to go look for him. Why don't you come with me tomorrow?"

"Then I'll trouble you, Master."

After Zhou Hanzhang finished speaking, he took his leave. When he returned to his room, he saw a bowl of medicinal food on the table.

She finished the medicinal diet in no time, and felt that her chest was getting increasingly bloated lately.

I've been so busy lately that I haven't paid much attention to my body. Now I'm feeling really uncomfortable, so I quickly took off my bra and clothes and took a shower.

She carefully examined her body. Even though she hadn't taken any medicinal diet during her recent trip, she hadn't shrunk at all. On the contrary, as time went on, her skin became whiter and more delicate, and her breasts became more rounded and full. Now, if she wore her breasts for a long time every day, she would feel like she couldn't breathe.

She needs to ask herself when she can regain her female form. This can't go on forever. Although her figure is impeccable thanks to the medicinal diet, she can't keep being tied up like this, no matter how much she grows.

Moreover, she is becoming more and more feminine in appearance. If she hadn't tidied herself up a bit in the morning to make herself look more heroic, anyone would have been able to tell that she was a girl.

She slept soundly until dawn, then got up to practice her skills. Now she can wield the snake whip with great agility.

Liu Niang would usually come to check on her in the morning, and seeing how serious and diligent she was, she was very satisfied. "You are really much better than your senior brother."

She was very happy that someone was finally able to carry on her mantle. "Go wash up first, and we'll set off after breakfast."

Zhou Hanzhang dared not keep his master waiting, so he hurriedly went back to tidy up and took two steamed buns with him to Liu Niang's courtyard.

When I arrived at the courtyard, I saw my beautiful mother and master having breakfast, chatting and laughing. "Mother, Master."

Madam Zhou noticed the two steamed buns in her hand. "Haven't you eaten yet?"

Liu Niang laughed and said, "I said I was going to take her out to meet an old friend today, and she rushed over here. She was even more anxious than I was."

Seeing that neither of them had started using it yet, Zhou Hanzhang sat down between them. "That's right, the people from the United States are coming soon. I made a promise to them, so I have to take care of it as soon as possible."

Madam Zhou looked over. "What is it?"

Zhou Hanzhang then recounted Princess Lisa's story, which shocked Madam Zhou so much that she covered her mouth.

Looking at her expression, Liu Niang said, "Unbelievable, isn't it? I was quite shocked when I heard it last night. I've lived most of my life, and this is truly the first time I've ever heard of something like this."

Madam Zhou's focus was a little different from theirs. "Then, that child, is he just being raised by the King of the United States like this? Won't people criticize him? Wouldn't this be divine retribution?"
