Chapter 1243: Purposeful Trouble 2
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Sword One was a girl so De Fu did not think that she was able to carry all six boxes of money. So Gu Chaoyan was the only helper, and only in this way would they be able to get the boxes back.
Gu Chaoyan was the leader, and no leaders should return with the awarded things.
De Fu was clearly trying to humiliate Gu Chaoyan.
He did this, because he wanted to show Gu Chaoyan some threat, and for another, he wanted to humiliate her since the King could not do anything about it. At least in this way, the King would feel better.
De Fu held no expression on his face, but he looked at Gu Chaoyan with a smile, saying, “Elder Miss, here is your payment, just take it. I am in a hurry to take care of the King, and I can’t stay here with you for too long.”
!!
That was a kind of urgency.
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at DeFu.
Faced with such trouble, Gu Chaoyan showed no expression on her face.
Seeing her act this way, De Fu did not think that she had any solution, except that she had no intention of showing any expression on her.
“Just take it.” De Fu urged.
“Sword One, go and fetch our payment,” Gu Chaoyan said to Sword One calmly.
Sword One nodded.
Sword One could carry the six boxes without any effort, but Sword One did not want to take them empty-handed. She took out a large patch of garment on the floor, and brought the six boxes to the garment one after another. She wrapped up the boxes with one large garment, picked them up as she nodded with relaxation. “Elder Miss, the boxes are ready, let’s leave.”
Gu Chaoyan nodded and smiled at De Fu. “Thank you for your efforts.”
Then she left with Sword One.
Gu Chaoyan could not help but hold the smile.
When she called Sword One, she had thought that Sword One would take them away directly, because she understood what Sword One was capable of. She had not expected that Sword One had prepared such a thing, so she laughed.
The most funny part was De Fu’s look.
Sword One had not expected that the thing she had with them could come into use.
The two of them started to head towards the court with a smile.
Gu Chaoyan did not conceal the fact that the boxes were given by the King, when she was asked by the imperial army or the officers on the way. So later, the imperial army did not dare to ask any more.
Gu Chaoyan and Sword One had already walked out of the court.
Back to the wagon, Sword One asked confusedly, “Elder Miss, we don’t lack money, so why did you ask the King for that?”
“The King is very suspicious, so if we don’t ask him for anything now, he would suspect that we would want something more. That is troublesome for Huaijin. So we better give them what they want. And we can save ourselves trouble as well.”
“…”
“The King can give nothing more than money, also…”
