Capítulo 29: There’s No Way!

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He pulled out the knife and brought the letter towards candle. His face immediately turned black!

He punched the desk right after he finished reading the letter, breaking it under his might. "Please get Master Hu and the eighth prince to gather here at once!"

The servants quickly rushed out to visit them.

Gu Xijiu was hiding somewhere in the dark and flashed an evil smile.

"Rong Yan, how dare you!? You must bear the consequences after setting me up!"

"There’s no way to hide it!"

She had done everything she could, and the only thing she could do next was to wait for the outcome.

Gu Xijiu looked up to the crescent moon in the sky and realized it was already quite late into the night. It was time to go home, thus, she disappeared instantly.

Although the security of the Duke’s residence was quite strict, Gu Xijiu was able to teleport in and out of the residence. No one would notice her.

Gu Xietian felt guilty towards Gu Xijiu, and he promised to fulfil all Gu Xijiu's whims and fancies.

For example, he gave her a quiet and luxury residence, with four female companions and four maids. Gu Xijiu was finally able to live a good life.

Leng Xiangyu had been managing the residence for a long time. There must certainly be a few spies being sent to inspect Gu Xijiu.

Of course, Gu Xijiu was not stupid, she knew the spies were hiding amongst her servants.

She was an assassin. Needless to say, she was good at observing people and hunting for spies; it was easy as drinking water to her. One of the spies was caught with just a small trick.

Gu Xijiu punished her severely and did not even bother when she begged for forgiveness. She even sold her away.

Since Gu Xijiu collected enough evidence and brought it up to Gu Xietian, Leng Xiangyu could only watch the servant being kicked out of the residence.

The show which Gu Xijiu designed had successfully scared the other spies away.

Initially, they were not happy with Gu Xijie. Since the incident, they finally knew that the current Gu Xijiu was easy to deal with.

Even Leng Xiangyu was not able to protect them at certain points.

Gu Xijiu knew that murder was not the best way to convert them.

Therefore, she called for a meeting with the other seven people and set a rule in terms of reward and punishment.

She hinted to them how she discovered the spy was that someone had reported it to her, and that she would reward the loyal servant later...

After that, she called them into the house separately and interrogated them. Sometimes, she only kept them in the room and then let them go.

No one knew who got rewarded, so everyone was afraid and were more careful.

Gu Xijiu really kept her promise. She rewarded the one who treated her with loyalty in front of everyone.

In fact, there was more than one spy in there. But since the meeting, the other spies knew who their real master was. They took the courage to come clean to Gu Xijiu and exposed the main objective of Leng Xiangyu.


Capítulo 30: Freedom

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Two days. It took Gu Xijiu only two days to convert all the servants into her subordinates.

Of course, as it was only such a short period of time, Gu Xijiu would not treat them as her closest buddies but she could make sure they would not betray her anymore and instead, fully obey her instructions.

For example, no one was allowed to enter her bedroom without her permission.

None of them dared to cross the line, but to only standby in the living room or the courtyard.

No one noticed it when she sneaked out with teleport. Of course, they did not know anything about her in the last two days.

Since she came out from the Duke’s residence, she was wandering on the streets and even bought a few items.

She put on a male costume when she was out and also changed her appearance. Therefore, she enjoyed her freedom as no one was able to recognize her.

The only thing that was less than ideal, was that the money she had was limited, as there were too many things that she wanted to buy. Perhaps, it was time for her to think of how to earn more money...

Her body has been malnourished or a long time and it was really weak, especially since she returned from Ningwu Mountain during a heavy downpour. She almost fell sick. Fortunately, she was quite well-versed in medical matters and massaged herself when she was not feeling well.

She managed to get some medicine from the clinic, which protected her from the flu.

Although she had recovered, she did not feel entirely strong as well. It was not easy for her to use Qing Gong sometimes.

She needed some valuable medicine to be fully recovered, but the medicine was not easily obtainable. Sometimes, it can be found in auctions, but every single item was really expensive.

The cheapest material she needed would also cost 10,000 and if she really wanted to collect all six materials, she would need to save up to about 150,000. But alas, her monthly pocket money was only 30, which meant she had a long way to go.

150,000 was equivalent to five years of annual income for the general’s family. Her father would not pay such a big amount to treat the black sheep of the family. Thus, she must find her own way.

She came here alone and she had no friends at present. Besides, there were many things she needed to understand about the current world. It was not easy for her to earn money now.

Anyway, it was the main capital of the country. Although it was nightfall, the street was a hive of activity, of massive crowds and businessmen thronging about. It was indeed very vibrant.

Gu Xijiu walked around aimlessly and arrived an auction room.

It was the largest auction room in the city. The building was huge with a classic etiquette on top.

The signage was plated with pure gold, and Yi Pin Lou was the name of the building.

The building was still bright at the moment. Apparently, there was an ongoing auction!

Gu Xijiu wanted to take a look and see if she could earn more money somehow.

However, she was blocked by a guard donning a stunning robe.

Gu Xijiu only wore a normal robe when she was out, changed her appearance and skin color in order to hide her birthmark. She was short, hence, she looked like a young kid who had just escaped the village.

Any of the guards’ costumes in front of Yi Pin Lou could easily upstage her outfit.
