Chapter 177: Ten Days



When Xianxian talked about Master Guoyun, her words were full of admiration, and her expression showed that she did not hide her love for Master Guoyun.

When talking about the exciting parts, Xianxian would even show an expression of admiration or nervousness, as if she had experienced it personally with Master Guoyun.

Su Lijin was also listening attentively, and was surprised.

She didn't expect that this Young Master Gu Yun was even more famous than she knew.

His deeds not only spread among the people, but also reached the inner court of the imperial palace.

It sounds like Xianxian not only heard about Master Guoyun's deeds from other people, but also read about him in many storybooks.

This Mr. Guoyun is really a hot figure. Even the storybooks are about him. He is so popular!

"I never thought that Master Gu Yun would be so beloved by the people."

Su Lijin was amazed.

"That's right. In Xianxian's opinion, Young Master Guoyun is the best young master in the world!" Xianxian's face was full of pride, with a slight blush on it.

She looked like a young girl in love, telling him how handsome the man she loved was.

Looking at Xianxian, who rarely showed such an expression, Su Lijin suddenly smiled and teased, "Xianxian, are you afraid you have fallen in love with this Mr. Guyun?"

Xianxian's face turned even redder, and she quickly shook her head: "No, Madam, please don't talk nonsense. I just... just..."

"Haha, if not, why are you shy? Tell me, have you secretly read a lot of Mr. Gu Yun's storybooks?"

Su Lijin's face was full of malicious smile.

"I'm going out to pack my things!" Xianxian ran out with a red face.

Looking at her shy back, Su Lijin smiled for a while.

"You said you didn't find the account book?" A black shadow was hidden in the darkness, emitting a cold aura that made people dare not look directly at it.

The voice was filled with anger, and Tan Tai Chun felt a chill in his heart.

Standing before the shadow, Tan Tai Chun faced the pressure and said, "I've searched everywhere in the cold palace, and I really haven't found that account book."

"Hmph, can't you even handle such a small thing?" The black shadow narrowed his eyes.

Feeling the faint pressure, Tan Tai Chun looked at the other side defensively: "I have searched everywhere, there is nothing I can do if you don't believe me."

"Do you think this is what I want to hear?" The shadow's tone was grim and full of threats: "Have you forgotten that I can take your life at any time?"

These words made Tan Tai Chun's eyes tighten. He took a half step back and said, "And Shi Qi. Shi Qi will definitely be able to find the account book."

"Yeah?"

"Within ten days, I will have Shiqi sneak into the palace and find the account book."

The shadow stared at him for a moment, obviously not quite believing it.

Tan Tai Chun said, "Now only Shi Qi can do it. Give me ten days, and I will have Shi Qi go to the palace and find the account book within ten days."

The dark shadow lowered his eyes, it seemed that there was no better way.

"Okay then. I want to see the account book within ten days, otherwise..."

Staring at Tan Tai Chun's neck, the black shadow's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"Just wait for my news when the time comes." Tan Tai Chun clenched his hands secretly at his side.

"Hmph, that's better." After saying this, the black shadow suddenly disappeared.

Tan Tai Chun let out a breath quietly, but his brows remained furrowed.

On the other side, Su Lijin was in the palace, but suddenly received a secret letter from Xiao Zhaolin.

Xiao Zhaolin's secret letter was sent in a unique and secret way, which was Xiao Tao's way of delivering messages.

Obviously, this letter is for Xiaotao.

Su Lijin unfolded the letter and snorted coldly when she saw Xiao Zhaolin's handwriting on it.

Her expression was slightly stern, and she sneered, "This Xiao Zhaolin really wants to kill me even in his dreams."

In the letter, Xiao Zhaolin asked Xiao Tao when she could kill him.

Looking at the extremely familiar handwriting, Su Lijin narrowed her eyes, and a hint of murderous intent appeared in her eyes.

Xiao Zhaolin wanted to kill her, so didn't she also want to get rid of this big trouble?

In her previous life, Xiao Zhaolin caused her tragic death in the end. In this life, she wished that Xiao Zhaolin would die immediately so that he could never plot against her again!

She would never let those tragedies that hadn't happened happen again.

"It's time to think about how to get rid of this big trouble." Su Lijin murmured.

If she doesn't take action, Xiao Zhaolin will take action sooner or later.

She didn't want to sit there and wait for this man to kill her again.

At the same time, in the council hall, there was another lively scene.

Prime Minister Zhang Wenfeng's shrewd face showed a hint of joy. He stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the flood has been dealt with in an orderly manner. The flood has been lifted and the people can live and work in peace again."

"Has the flood been dealt with?"

The ministers standing by were all surprised.

Xiao Shengxing glanced over and said calmly, "Oh? Has the flood been controlled?"

Zhang Wenfeng nodded excitedly, his face full of pride. "My younger brother Zhang Xiao has been wholeheartedly helping the Emperor, always thinking of the suffering people. He worked tirelessly day and night to come up with solutions to the flood. Under his leadership, the flood has been properly resolved, and now, there is peace!"

"The Prime Minister really has a good brother." A minister exclaimed.

"Zhang Xiao has really done a great thing for the country and the people!" People kept echoing.

Looking at the movements below, Xiao Shengxing curled the corners of his lips slightly, his black eyes were deep, as if he could see through everyone's thoughts.

He looked at Zhang Wenfeng with unspeakable meaning in his eyes, but he did not speak, as if he was waiting for something.
