Yu Wan looked at him calmly, clearly not planning to obediently give in.

Yu Zigui frowned. “Do you really think I’ll harm you?”

Yu Wan said indifferently, “You make it sound like you’ve never harmed me.”

Yu Zigui choked. “Can you stop talking about the past?”

Yu Wan said, “But the current situation is caused by what happened in the past. You give to me as you like it, and you take it away as you like it. What do you take me for?”

A trace of fear flashed across Yu Zigui’s eyes. He hoped that Yu Wan would realize that he was not lying. “Do you know what the Gu King is?”

“What is it?” Yu Wan was fearless.

Yu Zigui said, “It’s the holy artifact of the Nanzhao Nation.” Gu poison was popular in Southern Xinjiang, and Nanzhao Nation was not exempted. Everyone, from the royal family to the commoners, thought highly of the Gu King.

Yu Wan had never heard Yan Jiuchao mention this before. She looked at Yu Zigui suspiciously.

“Don’t doubt me,” Yu Zigui said. “Do you know the origin of this holy artifact?”

Of course, Yu Wan did not know. She didn’t even know that the Gu King was a holy artifact.

“The Gu King originally belonged to the Ghost Clan of Southern Xinjiang. In order to marry the princess of the Nanzhao Nation, it was sent out as a betrothal gift by the King of the Ghost Clan.”

“Are you talking about the Queen of Nanzhao?” Yu Wan asked.

“No.” Yu Zigui shook his head. “It’s the Eldest Princess who was abandoned by the royal family when she was young.”

“Is the Eldest Princess willing?” Yu Wan was very puzzled as to why she asked such a question. What did it have to do with her whether she was willing or not?

Yu Zigui did not care about this. He only felt that the little girl was curious and patiently answered her doubts. “If she’s willing… she probably won’t escape marriage.”

Then this Eldest Princess was too miserable. She was born to be a jinx and was abandoned by her family. When she finally grew up, she was sold by her family, which had never raised her for a day. In the eyes of those people, she was only worth a worm.

At the thought of this, Yu Wan suddenly felt sad for this Eldest Princess.

She was glad that she did not have such parents, and she was also glad that although there were two children at home, her mother had always been impartial. In fact, if there’s someone that her mother was biased to, it would have been her.

During the most difficult times in the family, her mother did not let her become a child who was sold to pave the way for her brother.

…Why do I suddenly think of Mom like this? Yu Wan thought in confusion.

Yu Zigui spoke again. “The royal family of Nanzhao is coming. They’re here for the holy artifact. Once they find you, you’ll be in danger.”

Yu Wan could tell that Yu Zigui was not lying. This man was a burden to her in every way, but this time, he probably sincerely wanted to help her. Unfortunately, she could not hand the Gu King over to him.

Yu Wan said seriously, “I still need it for the time being. When I’m done, I’ll think of a way to resolve it.”

Yu Zigui wanted to say something, but Yu Wan lowered the curtain.

On the other hand, Jiang Hai had been paying attention to the two of them. Seeing that Yu Wan had the intention of leaving, he strode over and blocked the carriage, glaring at Yu Zigui.

Yu Zigui knew that he wouldn’t be able to get the Gu King today. He looked at the tightly shut carriage and said, “You better consider what I said just now and throw this hot potato away as soon as possible!”

Jiang Hai stood rooted to the ground, waiting for Yu Wan’s interrogation. No one would not be puzzled that a coolie bought from the Silk Pavilion actually had such skills.

Unexpectedly, Yu Wan did not say anything. She only asked him to pull Jiang Xiaowu over. She still had to go to the Directorate later.

Jiang Hai looked at the curtain in shock.

Yu Wan’s voice slowly sounded. “Did you use your full strength just now?”

Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment before answering, “No, I only used thirty percent of my strength.”

However, Yu Zigui used seventy percent of his strength. Yet, two of them could fight to a draw. It was obvious that Jiang Hai’s skills were far above Yu Zigui’s. Such an expert actually sold himself to the Silk Music Hall to do manual labor. It was really a waste of his talent.

“Young Madam…” Jiang Hai was about to speak when Yu Wan said,” I don’t care about your past. I only care if you would betray me.”

“I, Jiang Hai, would not betray you,” he said seriously. “I will be loyal to you, Madam.”

He said “Madam”, not “Young Madam”. The difference between the word was worlds apart.

Yu Wan sent a large box of cherry crisps and a basket of cherries to Yu Song and returned to the Young Master Manor. She went to the study to tell Yan Jiuchao that she had seen Yu Zigui. Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six were also there.
