Chapter 260: Chapter 156 Prince Mu Causes Trouble_2
A pair of kitchen knives paved the way, and Dong Lei incredibly scared off the guards on duty without even making a move!
This is really something!
“Impressive, right?” Dong Lei arrogantly gestured with the kitchen knife in his hand.
“Hmm-hmm,” Yuan Bao nodded vigorously, his forehead marked by three thick lines.
“Let me tell you, I realized something while I was on my way to the inspection. When doing bad things, you mustn’t act like a guilty thief. You need to strut around confidently like this, that’s the only way to stand invincible!” Dong Lei pointed at the fleeing guard and generously shared his successful experience.
Yuan Bao wiped off his cold sweat and secretly decided that once he was done with his current tasks, he definitely needed to catch those few and ask how come, upon seeing Xiao Leizi, they scattered faster than mice seeing a cat?
Under Dong Lei’s protection, Yuan Bao indeed made his way unobstructed to Gu Changsheng’s room.
“Here, the Lady is inside. But she’s in a terrible mood today, so good luck,” Dong Lei kindly warned before heading back, as his back-and-forth had wasted quite a lot of time, and he needed to go back and pick vegetables for dinner.
Yuan Bao scratched his head. If Lady Changsheng was in a bad mood, wasn’t he walking right into the line of fire?
But he indeed had very important business to report, and it couldn’t be delayed!
Thus, Yuan Bao, with the resolve of a brave warrior facing the end, boldly strode into the room.
Zhou Mu was resting at noon, while Gu Changsheng, trying not to disturb him, had moved the medicine case to the outer room.
The door suddenly burst open, and seeing Yuan Bao’s round figure and wide mouth, Gu Changsheng, quick-witted and fast-handed, dropped the poison bottle he was holding to immediately cover the mouth that seemed about to shout.
“Shush!” Putting his finger to his lips, Gu Changsheng gave Yuan Bao a warning look, “Keep it down, the evildoer is sleeping inside.”
Yuan Bao hastily nodded with his mouth covered.
It turned out his master had already returned.
But how could Lady Changsheng not seem worried at all?
Once Gu Changsheng was sure Yuan Bao wouldn’t yell, he let go, “All right, what’s the matter? Speak quickly, then go find Dong Lei for some food.”
Having accidentally left Yuan Bao to spend the night in the woodshed, Gu Changsheng felt slightly guilty.
Honestly, Yuan Bao was quite adorable and humorously innocent.
“Lady Changsheng, how can you be so calm?” Yuan Bao scratched his head, puzzled.
“If I’m not calm, should I be in agony? I would if I could, but I need to have the parts first,” Gu Changsheng wickedly smiled and rolled his eyes.
It took a few seconds for Yuan Bao to understand, his mouth drooping as he realized he’d been made fun of yet again!
What was going on today, why was everyone making personal attacks on him? What’s wrong with being an eunuch? Eunuchs are people too!

A thump on the forehead from Gu Changsheng, who said rather annoyed, “All right, no more teasing, hurry up, speak. What could possibly agitate me?”
“Lady Changsheng, you don’t know yet?” Yuan Bao widened his eyes.
“What should I know?” Gu Changsheng shrugged.
The next moment, Yuan Bao slapped his forehead, “I just knew it, Lady Changsheng wouldn’t be this indifferent if she knew.”
“Lady Changsheng, I have to tell you, my master has caused a disaster.” He pointed at the inner room, Yuan Bao tried to make a grinding teeth expression, but thinking of the master inside, he held himself back.
“I’d like to hear the details,” Gu Changsheng said sternly.
She was actually curious, what exactly could harm Zhou Mu this badly?
Maybe Yuan Bao could indeed provide some answers.
“Lady Changsheng, this is all my fault. I relayed the message to Southern Fujian, leading to the master causing such a huge disaster,” Yuan Bao was full of remorse.
“Get to the point!” Gu Changsheng’s voice turned slightly cold.
Starting and ending with disasters, she didn’t believe Zhou Mu could cause a disaster that would make Yuan Bao this nervous. If it were about deserting the military camp again, then this would be his second offense, and Yuan Bao shouldn’t be making a mountain out of a molehill.
Yet Yuan Bao solemnly stated, “In one night, the Palm Seal Officials of the whole province including three cities and the Naval Command Office were all murdered, causing public uproar.”
“Did he do it?” Gu Changsheng’s expression remained noncommittal as she pointed to the inner room.
Yuan Bao bluntly nodded, “Exactly, it was the master who did it. Now Southern Fujian’s coast is in chaos, and the master is brazenly walking back to Liuzhou via the official roads. Lady, what does the master intend? By latest tomorrow, this news will surely reach the Court. How will this end then?”
Gu Changsheng, stroking her chin, thought briefly before her eyes suddenly lit up with a proud smile.
Seeing her like this, Yuan Bao was completely at a loss, “Lady, how can you still smile? This isn’t a laughing matter, it could cost people their lives!”
The master had indeed killed officials before, and many who offended him indeed ended up dead, but he had never killed so many at once! Furthermore, the Naval Commander was a high-ranking official!
“Yuan Bao, lives have obviously been lost, haven’t they?” Weren’t those dead officials human lives?
No wonder Zhou Mu said he wouldn’t return after coming back. It wasn’t just to comfort her, but because he really didn’t need to go back anymore.
Gu Changsheng peered into the inner room, a touch of warmth crossing her eyes. Was his eagerness for a swift resolution all for her?
“Trouble follows trouble, with the Japanese Pirates yet to be wiped out, and now Southern Fujian in turmoil. The emperor had just been threatened by him, and now this is happening. I don’t know what the emperor will think. Assassinations of Court officials, causing civil unrest, and deserting the military camp; even if the emperor tends to overlook his actions, he can’t ignore such reckless behavior, can he? Yuan Bao fretted, “The master’s slaying of so many officials has truly made him enemies within the entire Court. Everyone feels threatened, and once they band together, even the emperor might not be able to smooth things over!”
