Chapter 480 Who knows if he was recognized

"Really! There are so many masters around you, and the cultivation of Shadow Three and Shadow Four is not very high. I am really worried!" Lao Ting said.

"Didn't you come here to ask me to teach you more new spells?" Gu Xiaoxi bluntly exposed Lao Ting's thoughts.

Hehehe…

Lao Ting smiled awkwardly. He didn't expect that this girl would not give him any face at all.

"If you come out, what will happen to the family? I won't go out until you're there. And you come here without even notifying me in advance." Gu Xiaoxi said this deliberately.

"Don't worry, I've called an old friend to take charge of the situation. His abilities are on par with mine." The old man said solemnly.

Gu Xiaoxi...

What she wanted was not only because of Lao Ting's high level of cultivation, but more because of Lao Ting's identity.

If the queen or the eldest prince uses force, this old man will be a ready-made imperial sword, and perhaps they won't have to escape at all.

Seeing that Gu Xiaoxi was still worried, Lao Ting continued, "To be honest, when I came to the imperial capital last time, I went to see that person in the palace and told him that I owed your family a big favor.

Unless the imperial capital is captured, you must protect me, and that person also agreed."

"Oh, he agreed so easily without any conditions?" Gu Xiaoxi didn't believe what Lao Ting said.

Although he is the ancestor of the royal family, after all, several emperors have been replaced, and people may not listen to him.

"Don't worry about it. I will protect her anyway." Lao Ting didn't explain it clearly.

Seeing that the other person didn't want to talk, Gu Xiaoxi didn't ask any further.

Ying Si's voice soon came from outside the door, and Gu Xiaoxi asked someone to come in.

Ying Si told Gu Xiaoxi what had just happened. After listening, Gu Xiaoxi said, "That's good. It can generate income for you. Give the order. Being able to coax them into giving money is everyone's ability. I have no objection."

"Then I would like to thank you on behalf of everyone." Ying Si bowed.

"Go there after dark and ask your master if there is any news from over there?" Gu Xiaoxi thought that the two had been in the imperial mausoleum for some time. The imperial mausoleum was not far from here, so they should have returned with news.

"Yes!" Ying Si took the order and retreated.

Gu Xiaoxi remembered something and asked, "By the way, have you seen Concubine Yun before?"

"Empress Dowager Yun?" It took Lao Ting a while to remember.

There were several emperors, and each emperor had many women in his harem. He was not a libertine, so why would he keep track of these people?

"How would I know who it is?" he said with disgust.

“If that’s the case, then you can look through the window and make sure you’ve seen it?

If you have met before, it would be troublesome." Gu Xiaoxi was worried that if Concubine Yun had met Lao Ting, then Master Gan must have met him too.

They just passed each other when they came in from the door. Who knows if they were recognized?

"Then how long should I stay in the house?" Lao Ting became anxious when he heard that he was not allowed to go out.

Gu Xiaoxi thought that it would take at least a month to heal Concubine Yun's face, so this method was not very suitable.

"Forget it. If she says she seems to have seen her before, just say there are so many people in the world who look alike, it's no big deal, you haven't seen her anyway." She felt that this was the only thing she could say.

This old man is really something. He clearly knows that it is easy to run into the prince in the imperial capital, so why doesn’t he know how to disguise himself or wear a mask?

"Okay, that's it." After listening for a while, the old man walked out.

Gu Xiaoxi arranged Lao Ting to live in the yard next door, so that if there was any movement here, there would be someone to help.

She felt that Master Gan would not easily restore Concubine Yun's face. After all, once Concubine Yun could see the light of day, he would no longer have to do many things for her.

She had a plan in mind. After she had arranged for Lao Ting, she gathered all the servants in the mansion to talk in the house in the courtyard where she lived.

"The old man who came today is my grandfather. From now on, you just have to do whatever he tells you to do.

Also, I'm going to activate the formation tonight. No matter what you hear, don't go to that lady's yard. Just protect yourselves," she instructed the servants.

It was the first time for Dajiang and Daqu to see such a master, who actually let his servants run away first when there was danger.

Moreover, they were given rewards in cash and silver, and they did not have to hand over any rewards from outside.

Oh my god!

They must have been very lucky to have found such a master.

"Master, is this appropriate?" Dajiang felt that this was not a good idea.

"What's inappropriate about that? Those are masters among masters. You'll just die if you go. There's no need." Gu Xiaoxi blurted out.

Dajiang...

I seem to feel a little uncomfortable.

Ying San and Ying Si understood the girl's good intentions, talked to the others, and asked everyone to go back to their own business.

After the others left, Ying San said, "Sir, should we do something?"

"Now that we have a ready-made security guard, you don't have to bother with that." Gu Xiaoxi said lazily.

Ying San and Ying Si widened their eyes. They thought that only Gu Xiaoxi had the courage to use the emperor's ancestor as a bodyguard.

"Don't make a fuss. This is not my fault. It's his fault for not disguising himself when he came. Maybe that Master Gan has seen him before. Who knows what he will become like in the future?" Gu Xiaoxi was still a little worried.

Don't let that Master Gan think she is a prince. It will be troublesome if he doesn't deal with the real prince and comes to eliminate her.

Ying San and Ying Si frowned after hearing this. Not only would the girl be in danger, but all previous plans would also be ruined.

"Alright, you guys go down, take it one step at a time, if anything goes wrong, just take the servants and run away.

They're targeting me, so if I run away, everything will be fine." Gu Xiaoxi explained the matter to them first.

After hesitating for a moment, the two men bowed and retreated.

Gu Xiaoxi took a short rest and was called up by He Yuan during lunch.

"Sir, we don't have the food that lady wants to eat," He Yuan reported.

After listening to this, Gu Xiaoxi lazily said, "Go back and tell the waiters to eat whatever is available here. If you are not used to the food, just buy it and cook it yourself.

Just write down the things you need to avoid and give it to the person who serves you. We don't need to serve her.

Tell her not to come here and try to gain recognition. I won't buy it."

"I understand, sir." He Yuan went over to report after hearing this.

Gu Xiaoxi couldn't sleep either, so she went to find the room in the middle of the manor, jumped onto the roof, and checked the formation.

After thinking about it, a bad idea came to her mind. She put on a wicked smile and went to the yard where Lao Ting lived.
