1645 Intruding into Lord Huai’s Mansion 2

The soldiers stopped her, but did not dare to do anything to the Phoenix Girl, nor could they let her in. So all they could do was to stand in the way.

Gu Chaoyan walked forcefully for a while, stopped and turned around.

The imperial soldiers, who had thought that they were faced with the greatest enemy, felt very confused upon seeing the Phoenix Girl going away, but they let out a sigh of relief.

The King’s order was to let them stop the Phoenix Girl from seeing Lord Huai. So they did not fail the mission since they successfully stopped her.

!!

The soldiers looked at their chief, asking in confusion. “What is going on, Deputy General?”

The Deputy General patted their heads, asking, “What is going on? The Phoenix Girl is kind enough not to give us a hard time.”

The soldiers felt so too. They kept saying that the Phoenix Girl was very understanding.

The General Deputy wiped his sweat, looking really tired.

He wasn’t sure whether it was because the Phoenix Girl was kind enough not to give them a hard time, but what he knew was that she should be considered as kind-hearted, because she was the Phoenix Girl. They from the Saint Divine Land should live on with the Phoenix Girl’s fortune. He might get fortune and blessing for him and his children to come.

Gu Chaoyan, who was on the way back to Xinlin Mansion, did not know what the imperial army was thinking of her, after she left.

She was tired. She closed her eyes quietly.

She felt that the Head of the Snow Territory was much more difficult to handle compared to those from Piaomiao Pavilion and the Cangyan Door. She wondered what purpose he had.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Gu Chaoyan picked up her teacup, sipped the tea and met Sword One’s confused look. She seemed to have much to ask her, but did not disturb her when she was taking a nap. She had to hold back her breath, and got very curious upon seeing Gu Chaoyan drinking tea.

Gu Chaoyan looked at Sword One and forgot about what bothered her. She asked, “What is it? Anything you want to ask me?”

Sword One nodded seriously.

“Elder Miss, didn’t the King tell you not to go see Lord Huai? Why did you go and see him?” Sword One was confused.

Well…

She did it for some reason.

She was going to ask Sword One to do some things, so that question came right in time. She explained, “Because I want everyone to know about Lord Huai’s problem, the unreasonableness of the King, so that whatever he does in the future, the civilians will forgive him. He is a capable man with his own pure purpose, but you can’t control the rumors. So we should make sure everything goes well.”

“…”

Sword One soon realized what was going on and knew what she ought to do.

“Elder Miss, I understand now.” Sword One burst out.

Gu Chaoyan looked at Sword One. She had corrected her many times so that she could address her differently so that she would not just consider herself a maid, but Sword One insisted on doing so.
