Chapter 778 As expected
After realizing this, Gu Chan opened her mouth, but ultimately swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Being able to understand animal language is an extremely special ability. If it were leaked out, it would easily put the little guy in danger, so keeping this secret for him is the best protection for him.

While Gu Chan was thinking this, Feng Shishi looked at her and said, “By the way, Prince Chan, you came here specially today, is there something going on?”

“It’s nothing serious. I’m leaving tomorrow, so I came to say goodbye to you.” Gu Chan came back to his senses and said.

“Then you must be careful when you go to Diyue Country alone!” Feng Shishi reminded.

After saying that, she silently reached into her sleeve, took out a silver dragon-headed token the size of a child’s palm, and handed it to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan took the dragon head token and said, “Master’s wife, what is this?”

“This is the secret order from Tianzong. When you take it to Diyue Country, you can find a place with the same dragon head logo to stay. Those are the hiding places of our Tianzong spies. When the time comes, you only need to show this secret order to get the help of the spies.” Feng Shishi explained.

Gu Chan quickly clasped his fists to express his gratitude, and put the secret order into his sleeve as if he had found a treasure.

She herself was unsure about her future trip to the Diyue Kingdom. Being able to take such a token with her would undoubtedly be an extra layer of protection for her life, so she would naturally carry it with her as a treasure.

Feng Shishi added, “By the way, my husband is hiding somewhere in the imperial city of Diyue Nation. If you get there, you can find a way to contact him. As for where exactly he is hiding, I don’t know.”

“I understand, Master’s wife. I won’t go looking for him unless it’s absolutely necessary.” Gu Chan nodded.

“Remember, this is the secret of our Tianzong. You must not leak it out.” Feng Shishi said solemnly.

Gu Chan nodded affirmatively and kept her words firmly in mind.

Without dwelling on this issue, she turned to Boss Cat and said, “After I leave, you will stay in Tianzong and help me protect my master’s wife and her son. Also, protect the Ninth Prince in secret and don’t let him take his last breath easily.”

[Just go and rest assured! I will take care of this matter.] said the cat boss.

Gu Chan smiled with satisfaction, then stood up and said goodbye to the mother and son with peace of mind.

Feng Shishi personally escorted Gu Chan out of Tianzong. When they arrived at the gate of Tianzong, Feng Shishi suddenly reached out and pulled Gu Chan and said, “By the way, I suggest that you go to Dizong before you leave. Dizong is in chaos now, and there are many people who don’t obey you. If you don’t go and suppress them, I’m afraid that when you come back in half a year, Dizong will be in big trouble.”

“Master’s wife, don’t worry! I know what’s going on with this matter.” Gu Chan said confidently.

Seeing how confident she was, Feng Shishi said no more, said goodbye to her quietly, and returned to the Di Zongmen silently.

Gu Chan went back to the princess’s residence to rest and was not in a hurry to go to Dizong.

That night, Gu Chan went to bed early and fell asleep. She didn’t get up until noon the next day to wash and pack.

Just as she dressed neatly and came out of the house, preparing to go to the front hall to have lunch, Zuo Yun hurriedly ran over to stop her and said, “Why haven’t you left yet? I thought you left early in the morning!”

“Why are you in such a hurry? I said I would leave in three days, but I didn’t say I would leave on the third day. It won’t be too late for me to leave after midnight at night!” Gu Chan said angrily.

“Hey! You’d better leave quickly! Otherwise it will be too late. I’m afraid the prince will come to trouble you again.” Zuo Yun said anxiously. Gu Chan frowned and realized that something was wrong.

After a moment of silence, she said coldly, “Just tell me! What happened?”

“I heard some news from the palace saying that the Six Ministries of Kyoto and the Tianji Pavilion and Dizong are now in your hands. If you don’t hand over these two powers, the prince will not let you go easily.” Zuo Yun said with a grim expression.

“Ha ha……”

Gu Chan laughed when she heard this, appearing extremely calm and composed, not feeling the slightest bit nervous at all.

This matter had been expected by her. She had thought of this as early as three days ago, so at this time, she just felt that it was very normal and did not feel anxious.

On the contrary, Zuo Yun was extremely anxious, and he pulled her arm and said, “It’s already this time, how can you still laugh?”

“Don’t worry, I’ve been prepared. Don’t be so anxious.” Gu Chan said with a wicked smile.

After saying that, she walked out of the yard as if nothing had happened.

Zuo Yun stood there, looking at her departing back, completely dumbfounded. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly and follow Gu Chan away.

Half an hour later.

Just as Gu Chan was having lunch in the front hall, Crown Prince Xuanyuan Long and Crown Princess Yan Li came over on their own initiative.

Everyone in the princess’s mansion was trembling with fear when they saw them. Even Zuo Yun quickly stood up and saluted them, not daring to provoke them at all.

Gu Chan was still sitting at the table eating. She tilted her head and stared at them with a grin, saying, “My Lord, what brings you here?”

“Gu Chan, you are so brave! How dare you not even show courtesy when you see me?” Xuanyuan Long said coldly.

“It’s not that I don’t know how to salute! It’s just that I had a hard time in Dizong before, and my legs and feet were injured. Now I can hardly stand up. I hope Your Highness and Your Highness will forgive me.” Gu Chan said pretentiously.

Xuanyuan Long was about to get angry and scold Gu Chan, but Yan Li reached out to stop him, put her mouth close to his ear and whispered, “My Lord, don’t argue with him, just tell him your intentions directly, otherwise he has many tricks up his sleeve, and he will trick you again.”

“Hmph! Okay, I’m magnanimous and won’t argue with you. We came to the princess’s mansion to find you today for only one thing, and that is to ask you to hand over the seals of the six ministries of Kyoto and the order of the leader of the Tianji Pavilion and the Di Sect to me.” Xuanyuan Long shouted.

Gu Chan put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, waved to Zuo Yun and said, “Don’t just stand there! Go and make a pot of the best fragrant tea, and don’t neglect the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.”

“That’s true. Your Highness, please calm down. Please sit down with the Crown Princess and talk slowly. There’s no need to rush. I’ll go prepare tea myself.” Zuo Yun said.

After saying that, he quickly called several maids in the hall and ran out as fast as if he was escaping for his life.

Xuanyuan Long and Yan Li suppressed their anger and walked to the front, sitting down on the left and right of the first seat, confronting Gu Chan who was sitting diagonally opposite them.
