Gu Xin squatted down and untied the ropes from Ying's hands, then whispered, "Let's sit over there and not make any noise."
Miss Ying's eyes sparkled as she obediently led Gu Xin to the corner of the wall.
The other girls who were awake also realized Gu Xin's identity and looked at her excitedly.
Gu Xin whispered, "Everyone, don't get excited, listen to me first. With me here, you're all safe. Right now, I'm just waiting for all these bad guys to come back so we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop."
The girls all nodded in unison.
Although they had never met Princess Xin Xin, they had heard of her reputation. Although they were not sure if the person in front of them was Princess Xin Xin, they all knew Miss Ying. Since Miss Ying said it was Princess Xin Xin, then it must be her.
Because she was the youngest girl, Miss Ying was very much loved by her family, so she was raised in the capital from a young age.
This little girl has a bit of a mischievous, devilish air about her. Anyway, many people in the capital know her. She's a bit like a mini version of Princess Jinghe. She seems arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable. She often struts around the streets of the capital with a whip, but she doesn't bully ordinary people and is even brave enough to stand up for what's right.
Since Princess Jinghe left the capital for Kunzhou a few years ago, her position has been taken over by Miss Ying.
When Miss Ying was six years old, she would stroll around the streets with the guards from General Ying's mansion.
Therefore, while not everyone in the capital knew her, most people knew she was someone not to be trifled with.
Seeing how obedient the girls were, Gu Xin felt relieved and continued, "Girls, remember not to panic or be afraid. While I'm out dealing with these people, you should stay quietly in the cellar, don't make a fuss, and listen to my brother. I'll take you back tonight and then punish these bad guys."
Miss Ying was the first to respond: "Yes! I believe in the princess! The princess is my idol! She is my role model! She is the person I want to become all my life!"
Gu Ren: "...I never expected you to be such a sycophant!"
At this moment, Miss Ying only had eyes for Gu Xin and ignored Gu Ren.
Gu Xin chuckled and patted Ying's head: "I agree with the first two sentences, but I disagree with the last one."
Miss Ying's big eyes were filled with confusion: "?"
Gu Xin said, "Everyone is unique in this world. No one can become another person. Miss Ying, you can take me as a role model, but you also need to live your own life. You are unique too!"
Miss Ying blinked her big eyes and said, "That's right! I am unique! I want to learn all of Princess Xinxin's skills, but my appearance and name are different from Princess Xinxin's! In the future, I want to do great things like Princess Xinxin and protect the people of Great Zhou!"
Gu Xin smiled helplessly: "Okay! I believe you!"
"Something terrible has happened! Big brother, something terrible has happened!" At that moment, a panicked voice came from above.
Gu Xin made a shushing gesture, then simply tied Ying's hands together, stuffed them with a cloth, and then made Gu Ren bite them as well, with his hands behind his back.
The cellar fell silent immediately, and everyone listened to the sounds coming from above.
"In such a hurry? What's the matter?"
"Big brother, the city is under lockdown! It just suddenly went into lockdown."
"Where are the others? Have they all returned?"
"They shouldn't have come out. When I left after completing my mission, I saw that Black Tiger and the others hadn't succeeded yet. As soon as I left, the city was sealed off, and there were even pursuers coming out to check. I had Ershuanzi drive the car, and we hid the supplies in the haystacks, which allowed us to avoid the check."
