Someone reported the Shen State Duke's Mansion, but His Majesty said, "Nianjun is still young, you should let him have his way." Suddenly one day, everything changed.

However, due to Tomato's censorship policy, the author could only post many of the disciplinary scenes on Weibo. If you can accept that, you can give it a try. [Kissing emoji]
