It's just for fun. Let Prince Gong run around for a few more days, otherwise all his fellow disciples would be so bored.
Whether the current emperor will be implicated as a result is not something they need to consider.
"You few go and keep an eye on Prince Gong. Report any new developments immediately." After instructing the men in gray, Zhu Qiuyu turned and drifted away.
After staying in Shanquan Village for a month, Gu Yiqiao finally couldn't sit still any longer. He studied kung fu with his fifth master, Zhu Yueran, from Xianwu Island for more than two months and was already able to defeat an ordinary strong man.
But he knew that was far from enough, but he didn't want to wait any longer; he wanted to save Fu Jiasheng.
These past two days, he has been dreaming that Fu Jiasheng is being brutally beaten by Wu Lianlian and Butler Gu. He has experienced this kind of abuse before, a feeling that is worse than death and goes deep into his bones. In the end, it was Uncle Fu who saved him, and now he wants to save Uncle Fu's son.
But he couldn't do it alone. He wanted to ask the Masters Zhu for help, but they were clearly not the type to meddle in other people's business. After observing them for so long, he knew that the people of Xianwu Island seemed easygoing and approachable.
Actually, they weren't really easy to talk to. When the five Fu brothers of the Zhou family wanted their masters to help them with something, they would simply ignore them and pretend they hadn't heard. As for that young master Zhu, he didn't pay attention to anyone and only revolved around Xingxing.
That's right. The Masters of Zhu only listen to Young Master Zhu, and Young Master Zhu only listens to Zhou Xingxing. So as long as he asks Xingxing for help, the Masters of Xianwu Island will definitely help him.
Xingxing looked at the fair-skinned boy who was bending down in front of her, and pouted. "Hmph, we saved you and even taught you kung fu, and you lied to us, saying your name was Fu Qiao, but it turns out your name is Gu Yiqiao. You're dishonest. I don't like you. I should have known better than to save you last time. Now you can leave. Don't expect me to plead for you or save anyone."
“Xingxing, I had my reasons at the time. I didn’t mean to hide it. I was afraid of implicating you, so I didn’t dare to tell the truth. I was wrong about this. I apologize to you. I’ll do whatever you want. I’ll even kowtow to you.”
Gu Yiqiao's handsome face flushed red. He was truly regretful now. He had lied in a moment of madness, and now he was reaping what he sowed. In his anxiety, he wanted to kneel down and apologize.
“I don’t want you to kowtow to me, and I can’t accept your kneeling. If you really want to thank us, we’ll help you take back the family property. Would you be willing to give us 10%?” Xingxing’s almond-shaped eyes darted around. These were words that Zhu Qingruo had taught her to say.
What wicked thoughts did Zhu Qingruo have? She just wanted to make some money while helping others.
Gu Yiqiao paused, speechless for a moment.
"You don't want to?"
“…It’s not that I’m unwilling, it’s just that my father is still in charge of the Gu family, and I don’t have the right to control all of the Gu family’s assets. However, I can make decisions about my mother’s dowry. I can give you half of my mother’s dowry. Do you think that’s okay?” Gu Yiqiao looked at the little girl nervously.
The little girl glanced at Zhu Qingruo beside her. Zhu Qingruo nodded without saying a word, and the little girl immediately said crisply, "Okay, it's settled then. But words are not enough; we need to make a written agreement first."
