There is Room For the Poor Daughter

The banker's matter touched Xiao Yeyang a lot, and it also made him feel a great sense of crisis for the future of himself and Daohua.

His situation was even worse than that of Master Zhuang, and the Zhuang family could only spread some rumors, but the royal family behind him could kill Daohua and the Yan family in minutes.

"Only useful people have the right to speak and autonomy"

Xiao Yeyang recited this sentence in his heart.

The royal family is the most unsympathetic place, and there are many children of the royal family. Even though the royal uncle seems to treat him well, if he wants to rely on the uncle's meager affection for him, he will try to make his own marriage in vain. In a fool's dream.

If he wants to win the autonomy of marriage, he has to have a strong ability to impress the royal uncle. As long as he has his support, the rest will be easy.

Daohua's touch was not small. The ancients paid attention to the marriage of the family and the words of the matchmaker. She had already prepared for this, but this time she witnessed a pair of young boys and girls being forced to commit suicide. Still feeling a bit horrified.

Thinking of her marriage in the future, Daohua couldn't help but look at Xiao Yeyang with a blank look in her eyes.

Will she have a happy ending with him?

Not long after, the two returned to Taohua Temple.

As soon as he entered the yard, Gu Jian noticed that something was wrong with the two of them. The younger apprentice was always smiling. Although his nephew and grandson were not very emotional because of the bad things in the capital, but because of the company of the younger apprentice, his eyebrows were stretched. Why did they go out once today, and both of them became more worried?

Granny Gu also noticed it, and immediately invited Defu to ask Wang Man'er.

The two of you told me what happened in the town one by one.

After listening to this, Granny Gu and Gu Jian looked at each other silently.

Granny Gu sighed: "I guess she was frightened."

Gu Jian was speechless and glanced at his sister, then waved away Defu and Wang Man'er: "Are those two little guys so easily frightened? Hmph, I think they were reminded of themselves from what happened to others."

Granny Gu understood after a moment's thought, nodded and said, "Yes, the Yan family's rank is indeed a little lower, Yang boy is so obsessed with Daohua, so don't worry."

"But it makes sense for Yang boy to be worried. After all, that boy's mind can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, but Daohua. Could it be that this girl is also interested in Yang boy?"

Gu Jian was speechless: "Sister, how much do you look down on Boy Yang? After all, he is also a son of the royal family. He looks good and has a good bearing.

Granny Gu choked: "Didn't I think that Daohua's girl is sensible and transparent, you forgot, she had deliberately avoided Yang boy before, I guess she also felt that the gap between the two's identities was too big, there would be nothing to do with it. As a result, it was intentional to distance themselves.”

Gu Jian sighed: "Emotional matters are so easy to control. The two grew up together and experienced a lot of things together. The hearts are not close to each other."

Granny Gu: "What should we do now? We can't let the two little guys worry about it all the time."

Gu Jian was silent for a while: "Let them worry, things in this world are rarely smooth sailing, and going through more hardships will be beneficial to them in the future."

In the main room, Xiao Yeyang laid out all the intercepted notes and his own analysis.

Daohua picked it up and looked at it, and asked, "Have you found anything?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "No." After speaking, he handed another note to Daohua, "This is from Master Wu, originally I wanted to see these two notes. Are there any similarities between them, but unfortunately, they are all common greetings, and I have no clue after reading them."

Daohua put the two notes together and compared them, and there was really nothing in common.

Granny Gu came into the house with the flowers from Daohuazhuangzi, and asked Caiju to serve refreshments for the two of them. She sat on the side, arranging flowers, and smilingly watching the two discuss and analyze.

Gu Jian also came in and sat by the door to continue sorting out his herbs.

The two old people were busy with their own affairs, listening to Daohua and Xiao Yeyang's whispers, with Jingyi smiles on their faces.

"what are you writing?"

Seeing that Daohua suddenly picked up the pen to write and draw on the paper, Xiao Yeyang immediately stretched out his head and looked over.

Daohua didn't lift her head: "These two pieces of information are literally unrelated, but." After speaking, she pushed the two notes to Xiao Yeyang's side, "Did you see that these words are combined characters, There are left and right sides."

Xiao Yeyang was at a loss: "So what?"

Daohua: "Look at what I wrote again."

Daohua copied the words on the note, but under each word she wrote, there were two sets of Arabic numerals.

Xiao Yeyang pointed to the numbers and said, "This is written by foreigners, I know it." After speaking, he glanced at Daohua in surprise, "You also read foreigners' books."

Daohua was silent: ". I don't look at it often. I just found it convenient to record these numbers, so I learned it. Well, don't worry about these irrelevant things."

Xiao Yeyang took the paper that Daohua wrote down in his hand: "What do these numbers represent?"

Daohua: "It means that it may correspond to another word."

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua: "How can I find another word?"

Daohua shrugged: "I don't know about this." Seeing Xiao Yeyang frowning, he thought about it and asked, "Do you know the Eighth Prince?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "After the death of the emperor's grandfather, Uncle Eighth Wang was sent by the emperor to guard the emperor's mausoleum. After so many years, he has not returned to Beijing. What are you asking about this?"

Daohua: "I want to know what the Eighth Prince likes, for example, what kind of books does he like to read?" After speaking, he invited Wang Man'er and asked her to bring the book "The Story of the Stone" that she just bought and give it to Xiao Yeyang in person demonstrated again.

"Look at the word 'good', there are two sets of numbers, the 3 at the front may represent the number of pages, and the 3 at the back may represent the third character on this page. Correspondingly, in The Story of the Stone There is a word 'Dai' in the middle."

After speaking, he looked at Xiao Yeyang, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Xiao Yeyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Daohua in surprise: "How did you grow melon seeds on your head? How did you find this?"

Daohua raised her chin proudly, how did it grow? Watching TV.

Xiao Yeyang quickly found out the corresponding words of other words in "The Story of the Stone" according to Daohua's method, and read them together. Although he didn't communicate at all, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

Anyway, this is a new idea.

Daohua suggested: "I think you'd better investigate the eighth prince's preferences first. If my idea is correct, then the corresponding book is probably the eighth prince's favorite."

Not long after the words fell, Gu Jian suddenly stood up and started driving. After a while, he came over with a copy of the Tao Te Ching: "Try it with this."

Daohua took the Tao Te Ching and said in surprise, "Master, are you still reading?"

Gu Jian rolled her eyes at her and ignored it.

Daohua shrugged, and quickly handed the "Tao Te Ching" to Xiao Yeyang, and rummaged with him.

"Mistake, catch, Ning, door, house, Yan, Zhi, Gao, Zhi, Female, Village, Middle, Zhi, Matter, Fear, Have, Leak, Reveal, Zhi, Danger"

As these words popped out of Daohua's mouth one by one, Xiao Yeyang, Gu Jian, and Granny Gu all widened their eyes.

Has the Eighth Prince's means of delivering messages really been deciphered? !

When the others were surprised, Daohua was full of fear, patted her chest and said straight: "Thank goodness, fortunately I intercepted this news, otherwise our family would definitely be assassinated by the Eighth Prince."

Xiao Yeyang held the "Tao Te Ching" excitedly. He was afraid when he saw Daohua, he quickly put down the book and walked over to comfort her: "Don't think about these things that didn't happen."

Daohua frowned: "But I'm afraid. I was lucky last time, but what about next time? It doesn't matter if I die, but it will hurt my grandmother and the others. Even if I die, I can't be blamed."

Xiao Yeyang frowned: "With me here, nothing like this would happen."

Daohua: "But you can't look at my house all the time."

Gu Jian was a little speechless about his apprentice's worries: "Do you think your father and your brothers are all trash and can't even protect your own home? Also, the last time you were kidnapped, it was just a matter of You were taken along, do you still want to have another time, you feel like a golden knot, and everyone wants to tie you up?"

Daohua was speechless, and after such an interruption, the fear in her heart disappeared.

Xiao Yeyang took Daohua and sat down: "Okay, let's come and see what this message that Master Wu intercepted said."

Daohua helped Xiao Yeyang decipher it.

"Six, month, ten, five, eight, immortal, residence, business, discussion, north, Xinjiang, soldiers, chaos, Zhi, affairs."

Daohua frowned: "Is the Eight Immortals a place? Discussing the military chaos in the northern Xinjiang means that the people of the Eight Kings are going to cause chaos in the northern Xinjiang?"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Jian kicked the medicine basket with a 'bang' kick.

Daohua was startled: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Yeyang also looked over, he was also very angry at what the Eighth Prince did, but he did not expect Master Gu to react more than him.

Granny Gu also stopped arranging flowers at some point, looked at her younger brother who looked ashen, and looked at the two children with puzzled faces, and explained, "Xiaojian and I have both experienced wars, and when I think that someone has actually Disregarding the safety of the border, man-made chaos, not to mention Xiaojian, even my wife, I am very angry."

Seeing that Granny Gu's face was wrong, Daohua hurriedly poured her a cup of tea: "Mother-in-law, Master, don't worry, this news was last year. Since it has been intercepted, it must not have been spread."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Xiao Yeyang, and said uncertainly, "Xiao Yeyang, there was no military chaos in the northern Xinjiang last year, right?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "It shouldn't be, otherwise, it's impossible for my uncle not to know about such a big event."

Daohua breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly comforted Granny Gu and Gu Jian: "So, master and mother-in-law, don't worry about you two anymore."

Gu Jian had calmed down and squatted down to pick up the medicinal herbs that had fallen on the ground.

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang quickly stepped forward to help. In order to ease the atmosphere, Daohua changed the subject and said, "Master, why did you think of giving us the Tao Te Ching?"

Gu Jian's hand paused, then raised his eyes and glanced at his little apprentice curiously: ". There is only one book in my room, which one will I not give you?"

"Uh"

Daohua tugged at the corners of her mouth, but she was speechless, so she could only say dryly: "I just think it's a coincidence, I thought Master, you know the Eighth Prince?"

Gu Jian glanced at her again, and sneered: "Do you think the royal family and relatives know each other so well?" After speaking, he glanced at Henry Zhang who was squatting beside his apprentice, and then at his sister who was sitting on the chair, Take another look at yourself.

Well, there seems to be a lot of royal relatives around the little apprentice.

Last time, even the emperor was tied up by her.

Daohua didn't dare to ask more, and quickly picked up the herbs.

Seeing that someone helped to pick up the medicinal materials, Gu Jian stopped doing it himself, stood up, walked to Granny Gu and sat down.

The siblings looked at each other.

They don't know the Eighth Prince, but they know the first emperor.

What the late emperor liked to read was "The Tao Te Ching". As the late emperor's favorite son, the Eighth Prince would be influenced by some of the late emperor to some extent.

After packing up the medicinal materials, Xiao Yeyang was ready to go back to his room: "I have to report today's matter to the royal uncle immediately." As he spoke, his face was solemn, "Eight Immortals is one of the largest restaurants in the capital, and there are many honorable guests. Aristocratic families all have their shares, if there is Uncle Bawang’s stronghold, there will be many people involved.”

Daohua is too lazy to pay attention to these things, she only pays attention to the credit: "We have deciphered the method of the Eighth Prince's message transmission, does it count as a credit?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang smiled: "Forget it."

After getting a satisfactory answer, Daohua was happy, but she quickly pouted again: "Do you think the emperor will remember my credit? Will he think that I am his subject, and that all these things should be done?"

Xiao Yeyang: "Of course he will remember, if he doesn't remember, I will remind you too."

Daohua shook her head and refused: "I don't want it anymore. They say that companions are like companions, so don't provoke him."

Gu Jian listened to the conversation between the two, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he whispered to his sister: "Why do you feel that girl is the nemesis of the old eight?"

Granny Gu glanced at her younger brother angrily: "Obviously, Daohua is the emperor's lucky star, okay?"

Gu Jian touched his nose, well, he didn't talk.

Xiao Yeyang went back to the room to write a letter, while Daohua went to the kitchen to make dinner.

After dinner, Xiao Ye masculine sent someone to send the letter away, and Dong Li and Cai Ju also sent news to the capital.

However, something went wrong in the middle. If Gu Jian hadn't appeared in time, the identities of the two secret guards would have been discovered by Xiao Yeyang.

After sending Xiao Yeyang back to the room, Gu Jiancai looked at Caiju and Dongli with a serious face: "I know you are very good guards, but I want to remind you again, don't underestimate Daohua and Yang boy. , if your identity is leaked, you yourself will know the consequences."

The heads of both of them were low, and they did not expect that the little prince would be so alert. You must know that they even concealed the secret guards hiding in the dark.

"Okay, let's go back to sleep."
