Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Gu Chan nodded affirmatively.

King Cheng laughed and said, "Then when I have time some other day, I really have to go to Prince Chan's mansion and taste the fine wine you have collected."

"I'll go with you to taste his good tea," the King of Qin said.

"Hahaha……"

After saying that, the two looked at each other and laughed out loud with joy.

After laughing for a while, King Cheng said to Su Yao, "Go out and guard first, don't let anyone in."

"Yes, Dad." Su Yao responded respectfully and immediately stood up to guard outside the lobby door.

At the same time, the King of Qin also sent away all the maids and servants and did not allow them to approach the hall.

Soon, Gu Chan and the other two were the only ones left in the huge lobby.

At this time, King Cheng said seriously, "Gu Chan, there are only three of us now, so why not speak frankly? Tell us honestly, have you ever seen the late emperor in the Jiangnan area?"

"Yes, this is what I want to know." King Qin said in a deep voice.

The smile on Gu Chan's face disappeared. She stared at the two of them with burning eyes without saying a word, thinking secretly in her heart.

Kyoto is now a muddy pond, and it is very chaotic. If you are not careful, you will fall into it. Therefore, every step you take next must be done with extreme caution, otherwise you may be doomed.

So she can't trust others easily.

Thinking of this, Gu Chan smiled faintly and said, "My two princes, I don't know what you mean by saying this. Didn't the late emperor pass away in Kyoto a long time ago? Even the state funeral has ended. How could I have seen the late emperor in the Jiangnan area?"

"The late emperor would not die so easily. When we were young, we went through life and death with him and built the great Tiancang Kingdom. How could we not understand him?"

"That's right. With his ability, it would be hard for him to die peacefully, let alone die in the palace."

King Cheng and King Qin denied it one after another.

Their purpose was very simple, which was to get information from Gu Chan and confirm where the late emperor was hiding.

Anyway, they didn't believe from the bottom of their hearts that Xuanyuan Wu would die in the palace.

Gu Chan pretended not to know and said, "Then I don't know about this. My two princes, please don't ask me anymore. I will prepare good wine and tea and host a banquet for you in my mansion to show my sincerity."

"You..." King Cheng stared at Gu Chan speechless.

Gu Chan stood up and said, "My two princes, I will leave first. My wedding is coming up and I am very busy. I will not stay any longer. On the day of my wedding, I would like to invite you two to come and have a drink at the wedding."

After saying that, Gu Chan walked towards the door.

King Cheng and King Qin looked at her departing back, both with gloomy faces.

It was not until this moment that they completely understood that although Gu Chan looked young, she was extremely experienced. If it were someone else, they would have been exposed under the pressure of the two princes. However, Gu Chan's words were flawless, which showed that she was indeed not an easy character to deal with.

After Gu Chan walked out of the gate of the Qin Palace, the Qin King raised his fist and slammed it on the table beside him, saying, "This little bastard is really not that easy to deal with. He can't be dealt with by soft or hard tactics. He really won't respond to soft or hard tactics!"

"Don't worry. He is still struggling in Kyoto and doesn't know who to trust. Give him some time to let him get his feet on the ground. I believe he will make the right choice later." King Cheng consoled.

"If he dares to surrender to the crown prince and harm the princes and princesses, I will be the first one to not forgive him," the King of Qin roared.

Seeing that he was so old but still had such a bad temper, King Cheng could not help but shake his head speechlessly.

An hour later.

Gu Chan returned to the court of Dajian Temple.

What’s funny is that at this time, Yu Da was so tired that his face turned pale as paper and he didn’t even have the strength to speak.

As time went by, the effect of the drug gradually weakened. He could no longer jump two or three feet high like he did at the beginning. He could only jump about one meter high. When he jumped, he looked like a fat rabbit, which was ridiculous.

Seeing that Gu Chan had finally returned, Shen Yang hurried forward to plead, "Second Uncle, Lord Yu has been jumping for two or three hours, it's almost time, you should give him the antidote!"

"What did he say?" Gu Chan asked with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Look at him like this, can he still speak? He is stubborn by nature, and it's useless to force him! He is not afraid of being beheaded, so how could he be afraid of being exhausted to death?" Shen Yang said with his hands spread out helplessly.

Gu Chan tilted her head to look at Yu Da and suddenly couldn't stop smiling.

This fat guy is really stubborn. He is almost exhausted from jumping around, but he still refuses to give in. This kind of perseverance is really worthy of admiration.

Helpless, Gu Chan could only sigh and say, "Master Yu! Originally, I was thinking of punishing you a little, so that you would bow your head and admit your mistakes to me at the Qin Palace. But now I understand that you are really a stubborn donkey. You won't move even if you are led, and you will retreat even if you are beaten."

"Hehehe..."

Yu Da was so tired that he couldn't speak. He just sneered weakly to confront Gu Chan.

Gu Chan reached into the bag on her waist, took out the bottle of antidote, poured out a white pill, handed it to Shen Yang and said, "Feed it to him!"

"Yes, second uncle." Shen Yang responded hurriedly.

Then he quickly took the white pill, rushed to Yu Da, held him down by force, and fed the pill into his mouth.

"boom!"

As soon as the antidote entered his stomach, Yu Da stopped jumping, and his fat body fell straight to the ground with a bang. He was so tired that he passed out on the spot.

Shen Yang said worriedly, "Second Uncle, will Lord Yu be okay?"

"No, he's just tired from jumping around. Just let him have a good sleep." Gu Chan said calmly.

"Second Uncle, what should we do with him now?" Shen Yang asked.

Gu Chan lowered her head and thought for a while before saying, "Find someone to carry him into a carriage and send him to the woodshed in the backyard of my Prince Chan's Mansion and lock him up. There's no need to send him back to the prison. Otherwise, with his temper, if he goes back to the prison, he might not live until the beginning of next spring."

"Will the prince agree to do this?" Shen Yang asked.

"Don't worry. I've already made an agreement with him on the way to Prince Qin's Mansion. From today on, Yu Da will be left to me. After all, this fat guy is a trouble for him, as he can neither kill him nor keep him. It's better for me to handle it." Gu Chan explained.

Shen Yang nodded in relief, and then he followed her instructions and called two officers to carry Yu Da out of the court and put him into the carriage.

Afterwards, Gu Chan and Shen Yang drove the carriage and took Yu Da back to Prince Chan's Palace.

After returning to the mansion, Gu Chan locked Yu Da in the woodshed in the backyard and left him to sleep. She did not sit idle, but immediately called a maid to call Zhang Wanshan and Ding Meihua to the study to discuss matters.
