After removing the talismans from the twelve people, Yin Liuli was so exhausted that her hands were trembling. She leaned against Gu Jinyan's chest and fell asleep without realizing it.
……
Chaolu Temple was completely surrounded by government troops. They dug three feet into the ground, captured more than twenty Taoist priests, and tied them all up and took them away.
This case caused a sensation throughout the capital.
When Yin Liuli woke up, she found herself lying on a soft, cozy bed, surrounded by a comfortable aroma of incense and tea.
The room was unfamiliar.
"woke up?"
Gu Jinyan, who was drinking tea at the tea table nearby, glanced at her, a smile spreading across his handsome face. "You can really sleep! You slept for eight hours straight, almost making me go to the palace to find the imperial physician!"
Yin Liuli frowned. "Where is this?"
"How's my villa?"
Gu Jinyan raised an eyebrow slightly. "I'll show you around in a bit. If you like, you can bring your wife to stay here."
"Pshaw, I'm not coming. I'll buy my mother a big house myself."
Yin Liuli scoffed lightly, and only after getting up did she realize that she had changed into a bathrobe and that the bloodstains on her hands had been completely washed away.
She sat bolt upright, surprised. "Where are my clothes?"
Gu Jinyan said calmly, "I changed it. It's stained with so much blood, how can I wear it now?"
Yin Liuli looked at him in surprise, "Who switched them!"
There were only her and Gu Jinyan in the room. Don't tell me it was this guy...
"Of course it's me, who else would be in this room?"
Gu Jinyan's handsome face drew closer to hers, his nose almost touching hers, and he smiled wickedly, "Anyway, you're going to marry me soon, so let's be honest with each other a few days earlier..."
The flippant man before them was completely different from Gu Jinyan, who had a frosty expression, murderous eyes, and an overwhelming aura of oppression at Chaolu Temple!
Yin Liuli had a slight suspicion that he might have a twin brother!
"Snap"
Five handprints appeared on Gu Jinyan's face.
Before he could react, a slender, white foot kicked him away, sending him sprawling to his knees.
Yin Liuli rolled out of bed, her two long, straight legs, like calligraphy brushes, standing in front of him. She grabbed Gu Jinyan's collar and looked down at him, saying...
"I'll give you one more chance, who will change my clothes!"
Gu Jinyan was on the verge of tears and quickly raised his hands in surrender.
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me! It was Madam and Granny Jin who changed it for you, I'm innocent!"
"You brought my mother and Granny Jin here?"
Yin Liuli's eyes lit up, and she asked anxiously, "Where are they? Where are they?"
Gu Jinyan rubbed his face, looking aggrieved, and said...
"If you fall into a deep sleep, how can I not bring the lady over?"
She's in the kitchen cooking porridge, saying it'll be ready for you when you wake up.
"Just kidding, why did you hit me..."
Although she was slapped, it didn't hurt at all, which shows that the lady didn't use any force at all!
The lady still felt sorry for him!
Yin Liuli raised her hand to slap him in a show of defiance.
"Who told you to make those cheeky jokes! If you dare do it again, I'll beat you up again!"
"Clatter"
Outside the door, a stack of clothes in Granny Jin's hands fell to the ground.
The young master knelt on the ground, raising his hands in surrender, while the young lady, with one hand on her hip, grabbed his collar menacingly.
The young lady was barefoot, her two slender, lotus-root-like legs standing before the young master...
The scene before my eyes was indescribably horrible.
Granny Jin exclaimed and quickly raised her hand to cover her eyes.
"This old servant didn't see anything! This old servant... Madam is calling this old servant!"
"Granny Jin, come back! We really didn't do anything!"
Yin Liuli stamped her foot in frustration.
Oh no, this is complicated...
A triumphant smile appeared on Gu Jinyan's lips.
……
Gu Jinyan spent two or three days recuperating at his villa, without even stepping out of the gate once.
He would either drag her around the villa all day or keep asking Madam Zhen what delicious food she was making.
He even placed his bedroom opposite hers!
Seeing that face every time she goes out is driving Yin Liuli crazy.
A messenger from the Yin family said that Vice Minister Gao of the Ministry of War had come to the mansion twice, requesting to see the eldest daughter of the Yin family.
Having fully rested and replenished her inner energy, Yin Liuli planned to return.
Before leaving, Yin Liuli said to Gu Jinyan,
"Wu Yazi was injured by me and I don't know where he is hiding, but he will never let this go."
Remember to have your guards investigate, and report back to me immediately if they find any clues!
She wouldn't just wait for Wuyazi to come seeking revenge; she would strike first and, ideally, take his life while he was severely weakened!
"I've already sent people to investigate, don't worry."
A hint of worry flashed in Gu Jinyan's deep eyes as he said softly, "You also need to be careful. He's in the shadows while you're in the open. You need to be wary of what insidious methods he might use."
Yin Liuli nodded and handed him a stack of yellow paper talismans written in cinnabar.
"These talismans should be carried by the guards. Firstly, they can protect them. Secondly, these talismans will react when they come into contact with people who have strong yin energy; if they heat up or even spontaneously combust, we must be extra careful!"
"You helped me solve a major case and saved Ah Yun, so here's a big gift for you."
Gu Jinyan put away the talisman and patted it with his hand.
In an instant, several young women dressed in fitted clothing and with neat and tidy appearances appeared before Yin Liuli and knelt down in unison.
"Your Highness, I greet you, and Miss Liuli!"
Yin Liuli blinked. "They are..."
"I have taken in many bodyguards, all of whom are orphans I adopted from a young age. They undergo rigorous training and assessments before they can leave the palace."
They are the four most outstanding members of the Kun generation, with considerable skill, ranked from first to fourth.
A complex emotion flashed in Gu Jinyan's deep eyes. He said calmly, "Since you don't have any reliable people around you, I'll give you these four to serve you personally."
Kunyi is skilled in hidden weapons, Kuner is skilled in disguise, Kunsan is skilled in weapons, and Kunsi is skilled in light-footed kung fu.
If anything happens, they will be there to protect you immediately.
Every time Gu Jinyan recalled the moment Yin Liuli was struck down by a bolt of crimson lightning, he felt a lingering fear in his heart.
After much deliberation, he felt at ease placing the four best female guards of the Kunzi generation among his secret guards by Yin Liuli's side.
This gift was absolutely perfect for Yin Liuli!
A warm feeling welled up in Yin Liuli's heart.
"Thank you! From now on, they're mine!"
She happened to be short-handed, so she accepted it without hesitation.
"We servants greet our master."
The four of them bowed down in unison.
Yin Liuli thought their names didn't sound good, so she smiled and said...
"Since you've followed me, you must obey my orders in everything you do. My men aren't expected to be exceptionally capable; the most important thing is unwavering loyalty!"
The most crucial aspect of the secret guard training is loyalty to their master, which perfectly aligns with Yin Liuli's requirements.
Little did she know that the training requirements for the secret guards were extremely high, and out of a hundred people who could make it out, there were at most three or five female guards.
These four people being ranked in the top four are definitely some of the most powerful cards in Gu Jinyan's hand.
Without the slightest hesitation, he went all in on Yin Liuli.
