Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Puzzled, Yan Xishan asked.

"Lord, can you still communicate with the mysterious beast?"

"Nonsense, didn't I tell you that I understand animal language? I am a veterinarian!" Gu Chan said unhappily.

"The Lord is truly amazing. He even understands animal language. I really admire you!" Yan Xishan seized the opportunity and immediately flattered Gu Chan.

Gu Chan grinned and said teasingly, "Master Yan, please stop saying bad things about me in the mansion from now on! Otherwise, if the rats in your mansion hear it and come to tell me, I will have to punish you!"

"Lord, what are you talking about? I am loyal to you now, how dare I say bad things about you!" Yan Xishan quickly expressed his loyalty.

Gu Chan nodded with satisfaction.

Wei Xing said with a wry smile, "Come on, little boss, stop teasing him. Why did you ask him to bring me here?"

"Take Sougou with you tonight and board an official ship to the Tiancang River to block General Shuiyue's more than 40 warships." Gu Chan ordered.

"Can we do them?" Wei Xing asked.

Gu Chan shook her head and said, "No, if we really fight, it will be a civil strife caused by us, and then the prince will have more reason to deal with me, so you just need to block them on the Tiancang River. It doesn't matter what method you use, as long as the two sides don't really fight."

"That's a bit difficult!" Wei Xing said, touching his chin with his hand.

Gu Chan said seriously, "You are smart and my baby is strong. I am not worried about the two of you as a team, so let's set off quickly! If you are any later, they will have to enter the Jiangnan River."

"Yes, I will obey your command." Wei Xing stood up and saluted.

Then he walked away in a swagger with the lizard Sogou.

Yan Xishan stood aside, completely dumbfounded. This was such a fatal matter in his opinion, but Gu Chan just gave a few simple instructions and then let Wei Xing leave with such a mysterious beast.

This... simply shattered his three perspectives!

Gu Chan stared at him nonchalantly and ordered, "Send someone to keep an eye on Nangong Jin tonight."

"Yes, lord." Yan Xishan came back to his senses and responded.

Gu Chan said no more, stood up and left the Censorate, and returned to the Jigong Temple with a leisurely look on his face.

After she left, Yan Xishan hurriedly sent a team of guards to guard the courtyard where Nangong Jin was imprisoned.

After doing all this, he sat in the lobby of the front yard, waiting anxiously, without any desire to sleep at all.

Time passed quickly and midnight passed in the blink of an eye.

Just as Yan Xishan was getting impatient, an official rushed in from outside the door, stood in front of him, and reported with a heavy breath, "Sir, it's incredible! It's really incredible."

"What's so amazing?" Yan Xishan asked puzzledly.

"After the manager Wei of Yingchun Tower, whom the lord had found, took the mysterious beast to the Tiancang River, the beast quickly stirred up a strong wind and waves, which tossed the prince's more than 40 warships all over the place and caused them to collide with each other, making it impossible for them to sail normally. Now all the warships have lowered their sails and stopped on the Tiancang River. Moreover, every ship has been damaged. It is probably impossible to repair them and continue sailing in a short period of time." The official explained with a happy look on his face.

Yan Xishan slapped the table with his hand, and instantly laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He couldn't help but praise, "Amazing! As expected of the lord's treasure, he can even stir up trouble on the Tiancang River, causing more than 40 warships of the prince to be damaged and unable to sail normally. In this way, everyone can see with their own eyes that it was the bad weather that caused their warships to be damaged, and it has nothing to do with us!"

"Yes! Even if the prince wants to cause trouble for our lord, he dare not say that our lord was the one who caused this trouble. After all, he has no evidence." The officer shouted.

"Hahahaha... hurry up, hurry up, investigate again and report back." Yan Xishan laughed and waved his hand and ordered.

The officer agreed, ran out quickly and continued to gather information.

After Yan Xishan was happy for a while, the heart that had been hanging in his chest finally calmed down temporarily.

Then he stopped worrying and immediately got up and went back to his room to sleep.

What he didn't know was that just after he fell asleep, two masked masters quietly jumped over the wall from behind the Censor's Mansion...

On the other side, inside the Jigong Temple.

At this time, Gu Chan was also sitting cross-legged in the Buddhist hall, dozing off with his head down.

The nine-fingered old beggar sat beside her, chanting with his eyes closed, and was also worried about the situation on the Tiancang River.

Yuan Jie rode a fast horse to the outside of Jigong Temple at the right time, then jumped off the horse, ran quickly into the Buddhist hall, and reported to Gu Chan the specific situation on the Tiancang River at the moment.

After Gu Chan learned that more than 40 warships were damaged and temporarily unable to sail normally, she stretched and said, "That's good. We have finally blocked them temporarily in the Tiancang River."

"Boss, what's the next step?" Yuan Jie asked.

"Nonsense, of course we are going to rescue your sister and Cheng Hao. Otherwise, do you think that with King Nanxian's ability, he can really bring them back to me?" Gu Chan said unhappily.

Yuan Jie breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Gu Chan was willing to save Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying, she would feel at ease.

Gu Chan didn't have time to say anything more. She immediately left Jigong Temple quietly with Yuan Jie, and then the two of them rode a fast horse to Chang's Wharf.

But not long after the two men left, two people in black, a man and a woman, suddenly jumped down from the roof of the Buddhist hall and rushed into the hall at a high speed.

The woman in black drew out the long knife from her waist, put it on the neck of the old beggar with nine fingers, and asked coldly, "Old beggar, where is the Lord of Jiangnan hiding? As long as you are willing to tell us where he is hiding, I can let you go."

"You are late, and you all have the same idea. Gu Chan is now leading his men to the Tiancang River to rescue his two subordinates!" said the nine-fingered old beggar with a strange laugh.

The woman in black was stunned when she heard this. "You old beggar, you still dare to lie to me, right?"

"Why would I lie? What I said is true. You are just a step too late. Gu Chan just rode away with others on horseback. They are probably out of the city by now. Besides, I am just a beggar. I am not participating in your fight. There is no need for me to lie in front of you!" said the nine-fingered old beggar, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

He really didn't expect that General Shuiyue under the prince was so smart. He actually let the warship fleet stay on the Tiancang River, and then sent people to secretly go ashore by boat and run to Jiangnan City to deal with Gu Chan first.

Of course, Gu Chan's idea coincided with the other party's. She first sent people to disrupt the warship team and stopped them at the Tiancang River. Then she went out to rescue people in person and meet the resourceful General Shuiyue at the same time.

That's why the two sides missed each other and didn't even meet!
