Cai Xiaolian: "But the Peng family, after receiving Lu Zheng's warning, purged their subordinates. Anyone who can still act as an inside agent under these circumstances must be extraordinary. Your men have only been trained for a few years; can you really find out?"
Gu Shouxin said, feeling wronged, "Does Xiaolian look down on my ability to raise people?"
Cai Xiaolian slapped him irritably: "Get to the point!"
Gu Shouxin: "Alright, let's get down to business. My men might not be able to find anything. But I still have Lu Zheng's men under my command! I've already sent a letter to the capital, asking Bai Yi to return. Bai Yi has been the leader of the Thousand Blades Sect since he was twelve years old. He's in his twenties now. In ten years, the people he's trained are capable of navigating the capital. So, I sent him to Kuncheng to investigate the Peng family and find this mole."
Cai Xiaolian nodded: "The man in white is indeed remarkable; even the emperor's men didn't notice him. If he secretly investigates the Peng family, the Peng family won't suspect anything, nor will they cause any trouble because they don't want to suspect the Chen family."
Bai Yi's abilities are undeniable. His accomplishments in the capital have allowed the Gu family and Lu Zheng to focus on Kunzhou with peace of mind.
Moreover, he had been making arrangements in the capital for almost three years, and was able to step back and hand it over to his subordinates to oversee.
At this point, the twins got tired of playing on the floor and lay down on the carpet to fall fast asleep.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian stopped chatting and each took a child and put them in the crib.
Gu Shouxin looked at his two identical sons in the crib, both surnamed Ye, and was in a great mood.
He returned to his study, ground ink, and began writing a letter to Gu Xin.
Since his daughter is quite the desert queen, then he, as her father, will provide her with remote education!
He used to think that even if his daughter got married, she wouldn't live too far from home. In addition, Gu Xin was still young, and he hoped that his daughter could protect herself, live happily, and not be easily deceived. As for scheming, he never taught her that.
Who knew that his daughter could travel thousands of miles away? Fine, in that unfamiliar land, he's now remotely teaching her how to recognize people, use people, and scheme against people.
It was given to her as a coming-of-age gift, as girls reach adulthood at fifteen.
Even if I don't want my daughter to grow up so quickly, I have to let her grow up.
...
The Song family of Fuzhou.
Cheng Huaiyu was putting her son to sleep.
Having experienced so much in the past two years, the youthful innocence on her face has long since faded. She now wears her hair neatly in a married woman's bun and looks at her son in her arms with loving eyes.
She recently received a letter from her adoptive parents saying that her brother had been found. She had no doubts at all, so her mindset is much better than before.
After putting the child to sleep, her expression immediately turned cold, and the maid standing beside her lowered her head, not daring to look at her.
"What did you just say Song Cheng went to do?" Cheng Huaiyu asked, glancing at the maid.
"Third Madam, Third Master is at Chunxiang Pavilion today and won't be coming back." The maid lowered her head even further, afraid that Cheng Huaiyu would lose her temper.
"Oh, I understand. I'll be reading in the study for a while. You stay here and watch over the young master. Don't wake him when he wakes up; just put him back to sleep." Cheng Huaiyu nodded and gave the instructions.
"Yes, Third Madam, this servant will definitely not disturb you." The maid was overjoyed, feeling as if she had been granted a pardon.
The young master has been able to sleep for two hours straight at night lately. By then, Third Grandmother will definitely be back to rest, so she won't have to worry about disturbing Third Grandmother and being punished by her.
