Chapter 438: Chapter 413: Taking Money to Get Things Done_1

The blow from the Imperial Guard was so fierce that Daohua didn’t regain consciousness until the next day.

“Mmm~”

In a daze, Daohua only felt a severe pain in her neck, as if it were about to break, and couldn’t help but lift her hand to rub it. The moment her hand touched her neck, all thoughts came flooding back, and she suddenly jolted up.

“Ouch!”

Because she rose too quickly and pulled at her neck, Daohua couldn’t help but cry out in pain, but at that moment, she couldn’t care less about the pain. She darted out of the room like a shot.

Upon seeing Old Granny Gu and Gu Jian standing in the courtyard safe and sound, she instantly let out a sigh of relief.

...

“Granny, Master, are you two alright?”

Daohua rushed to Old Granny Gu and Gu Jian’s side, the smile that had just begun to appear on her face vanished the moment she saw the eunuch An under the eaves, replaced by wariness and dread.

Daohua quickly pulled the two elders behind her and was just about to hurl a few harsh words at Eunuch An when Gu Jian spoke up.

“They’re not bad people.”

“Hmm?”

Daohua turned her head to look at her master in confusion: “They are gold thieves, bad people.”

Eunuch An showed a wry smile: “Miss, we are Imperial Envoys, not gold thieves, you have made a mistake.”

Daohua was skeptical: “If you are Imperial Envoys, why would Xiao Yeyang want to capture you?” She said as she pulled Old Granny Gu and Gu Jian toward the courtyard entrance and whispered, “Master, Granny, don’t be fooled by them.”

Watching his little disciple’s face, showing that they were oblivious to the dangers of the world, Gu Jian was speechless: “Are you sure Xiao Yangzi was capturing them?”

Daohua nodded earnestly and then jerked her chin towards Eunuch An: “Xiao Yeyang told me himself that man is not a good person.”

These words happened to be overheard by the Fifth Master, Wu Jingyi, Yang Chenghua, and Wei Qi who had arrived at the courtyard entrance, and all four couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

No wonder the young lady was adamant that they were gold thieves, it turned out to be Yangyang’s (Little Prince’s) doing.

Yang Chenghua chuckled: “The Little Prince sure has a big grudge against Eunuch An.”

Wu Jingyi clicked his tongue twice: “No help for it, the Little Prince was a troublemaker in the palace when he was young, and every time he was punished, it was Eunuch An who carried it out.”

Daohua, hearing noises from behind, immediately turned around to look, her face crumbling upon seeing the Fifth Master and the rest. Her heart cried out that it was done for, but she quickly noticed something amiss and her expression revealed contemplation.

Neither Granny nor Master were harmed, and she was only knocked out; these people’s actions indeed didn’t seem like those of bad people.

Watching the girl’s expression change by the minute, the Fifth Master and the others found it amusing and watched with a smiling gaze, not interrupting her thoughts.

Especially the Fifth Master, who knew that if not for this young lady’s rescue, he would never see his mother and uncle again, he felt grateful in his heart.

Moreover, the girl was so clever and her appearance was endearing, increasing his good impression of her.

“So, have you figured out that we are not bad people?”

Seeing that Daohua was less guarded than before, the Fifth Master asked with a smile.

Daohua glanced at Eunuch An, then at the Fifth Master and the others, and suddenly remembered Yan Wenkai and the others. She quickly turned to Gu Jian and asked, “Master, how are my third brother and fourth brother, and everyone at the manor? Are they all alright?”

Gu Jian glanced at the Fifth Master and the others: “They’re fine.”

Wu Jingyi immediately joined in, smiling: “Your third brother and fourth brother saw how formidable our bodyguards were and insisted on sparring with them; they left early in the morning.”

Daohua looked skeptical and turned to Gu Jian.

Gu Jian nodded: “It’s not a bad thing for your third brother and fourth brother to exchange pointers with those bodyguards.”

Reassured by her master’s words, Daohua lowered her voice: “Although these people haven’t forced us, we still can’t trust them too soon. I have sent a message to Xiao Yeyang, and we’ll wait for him to arrive before we do anything else.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Jian couldn’t help but cough, recalling the hawk that had been killed by an arrow through its throat and cast a cold glance at the Fifth Master and his companions.

Daohua turned to Eunuch An: “You say you are Imperial Envoys, do you have proof?”

Eunuch An immediately looked at the Fifth Master and the others.

Yang Chenghua, without being told, quickly took out an official seal from his sleeve and handed it to Daohua with a smile.
