Chapter 245 Ah Shan: It won't be a problem until tonight.
What, what what what??

Upon hearing these words, almost all the people of Daqi under the sky stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky in unison.

Emperor Jingxuan knocked over the teacup beside him and stood up excitedly. "Awake? How could this be? A-Shan just woke up like that?"

He turned to Cao Qing and ordered him urgently, "Quick, quick, go to the altar, go to the altar."

"Your Majesty, will it be too late?"

Emperor Jingxuan suddenly stopped in his tracks. “Yes, yes, the altar is too far away. Let’s go…” His mind was racing. After a while, he suddenly clapped his hands. “Go to the Meridian Gate and up the city wall. Then summon all the civil and military officials to the palace, go to the post station to find Lin Lan and the others, and bring as many of the people from yesterday as you can outside the Meridian Gate.”

Cao Qing hurriedly accepted the order and left, wondering if it would be in time. Yesterday, A-Shan had only been on the phone for a short time, and he was afraid that A-Shan would turn off the phone again before they even reached the Meridian Gate.

Despite this thought, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards still managed to convey the decree at a speed of almost eight hundred li.

Fortunately, some ministers and common people, even if they hadn't heard the imperial decree, immediately thought of it upon seeing the sky, including Lin Lan and others, and hurriedly set off towards the palace.

It seemed like everyone in the Great Qi Dynasty was mobilized, and Jian Yunsang in the sky was also stunned when she heard Chaochao's words.

She quickly looked around, and thankfully no one was nearby, so no one heard what Chaochao said.

Despite this, she still led Chaochao as far as possible off the beaten path to the school gate.

She let Chaochao and Ashan chat normally, while she sent a message to He Nanzhou.

Chaochao nodded emphatically and asked Ashan, "Ashan, didn't you say it would be a few days before it was turned on? How come it woke up after only one day?"

Ah Shan's voice was cheerful, and unlike yesterday's intermittent chatter, "Because Chao Chao is so capable! You suddenly gave me so much energy, so of course I can turn it on."

"I... I'm not that capable either," Chaochao laughed a little embarrassedly, then suddenly remembered, "Right, how come our energy points suddenly increased so much? Is it because we helped Brother Qiao Xingguang and Professor Fan? But how did we get so much, three thousand five hundred?"

Jian Yunsang was also very curious about this question, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on Chaochao's hand.

Ah Shan said, "Well, it's because Professor Fan is very capable. He will make great contributions to the country in the future, so his energy level is naturally high. If it weren't for you guys, he might have been beaten to death this time."

"So that's it."

"That's not all. Do you know why Professor Fan was beaten? It's because someone knew that his project had made a little progress. Although they weren't sure if it would succeed, just in case, they wanted to kill Professor Fan. They just didn't dare to make a big fuss, so they found a few people who had conflicts with Professor Fan and provoked them to take action."

Chaochao gasped, "How can it be so complicated? Why would someone want to kill Professor Fan?"

"Because they are spies."

What is a spy?

Upon hearing this, Jian Yunsang abruptly stopped in her tracks. She looked at Chaochao in astonishment, "What do you mean? What spy? Where?" This was a serious matter, especially since it involved spies. Seeing her mother's serious expression and sharpened eyes, Chaochao nervously swallowed.

Fortunately, A-Shan could hear Jian Yun-Sang's question and immediately began to explain.

Chaochao hurriedly relayed the message: "Ashan said that if Professor Fan's project is successfully completed, it will make a great contribution to the country. Some spies know about this and, just in case, planned to have the students kill Professor Fan. But because of our intervention, Professor Fan regained consciousness in time, and the police arrived at the hospital immediately after we called the police. They sensed something was wrong from their questioning of Professor Fan and immediately took action. The spy didn't have time to escape and was caught. They also followed the clues and found his accomplice, who is currently on his way to arrest him and will be apprehended soon."

"Mom, don't worry," Ah Shan said. "It's because the matter of the spy has been resolved that the energy level has increased so much."

Jian Yunsang breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it is. No wonder it suddenly spiked to 3,500.

Chaochao, "Ashan also said that I shouldn't ask too many questions about the spy matter. The police will follow up. For our safety, we should pretend we don't know anything about it. It was also very happy that I was so brave and accumulated so many energy points. It was proud of me."

Jian Yunsang patted her head. Now that the spy problem was solved, she was eager to know about the Great Qi.

They had already reached the school gate when the He family's driver was waiting for them not far away, looking in their direction. Upon seeing them come out, he immediately jogged over.

She quickly whispered to Chaochao, "Ask Ashan how long it can stay powered on this time."

Ah Shan said, "Judging from the current energy levels, there shouldn't be any problem by tonight."

Chaochao conveyed Ashan's message, and Jian Yunsang felt a little relieved. "Okay, let's go home first. I've already told your father about Ashan starting up the machine, and he should be back by now."

Let's find out more about Daqi when we get home.

Chaochao nodded, "Mom, Ashan said that next time you have a question, you can just ask it directly. It can hear you, and I can answer for it."

No sooner had they finished speaking than the He family's driver rushed up to them. "Madam, Miss, shall we return to Jinfeng Manor now?"

“Yes.” Jian Yunsang stopped Ashan’s topic, nodded to the driver, and walked towards the car parked not far away.

The driver quickly opened the car door, and after Chaochao sat in the child safety seat, she remained quiet.

She actually had many questions she wanted to ask Ah Shan, but the driver was driving, and it would be strange for her to suddenly speak up.

But she really wanted to talk, especially since Ah Shan also wanted to talk to her, and would ask her a couple of questions every now and then.

Afraid that she would speak up, Chaochao turned to Jian Yunsang to ask other questions in order to divert her attention, "Mom, why doesn't Qiao Xingguang's homeroom teacher side with him? He blames him as soon as he arrives. Isn't my brother his student? Why didn't he ask first?"

“I’m not very familiar with Teacher Gao. I’ll ask the vice principal later.” Jian Yunsang frowned as she spoke. “He really did something inappropriate.”

While the mother and daughter were chatting about other things, Emperor Jingxuan in the sky breathed a sigh of relief.

He had finally made it to the top of the Meridian Gate after a long and hurried journey. He didn't care that the others hadn't arrived yet. Taking advantage of a rare moment when Ah Shan was free, he shouted loudly at the sky, "Ah Shan, Ah Shan!"
