Chapter 445: Interception

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone around was shocked. Even Xiaoxiao herself looked speechless.

It had always been others chasing after Grand Secretary Gu to take them in as his disciples and guide them. He had never taken the initiative to suggest it.

Moreover, that was not all. Grand Secretary Gu actually said, “After becoming Grandfather’s disciple, you can enjoy Grandfather’s collection all these years. I know you don’t like to read those rigid ancient books. Grandfather still has many interesting biographies and local customs journals…”

“Moreover, if you become Grandfather’s disciple, your seniority will be even higher. Not only will that girl Ruoruo call you Auntie in the future, but she will also call you Grandmaster.”

Xiaoxiao:…

Gu Ruoruo was speechless.

Why did it seem like her grandfather was trying to coax Xiaoxiao into becoming his disciple?

The way Grand Secretary Gu coaxed the child made many people’s jaws drop, and Xiaoxiao naturally knew that her grandfather was deliberately supporting her in front of others.

Hence, although she knew that her blissful slackness might be gone forever after she agreed, she still bowed seriously. “Disciple Xiao Ning greets Teacher.”

While others were envious and jealous, Gu Ruoruo could not help but suspect that Xiaoxiao’s motive for becoming a disciple was impure. If she was not wrong, Xiaoxiao seemed to have glanced at her when her great-grandfather mentioned the issue of seniority just now.

I’ve already said that we’re on the same level!

Could she still keep this friend?

The rest of the wedding banquet was passed safely. No one dared to provoke Xiaoxiao again, and there was no mistake in the wedding process. However, neither the Crown Prince nor the Crown Princess Consort could be happy today.

It was clearly their wedding banquet, but others had become the focus of attention. What was going on?

Not to mention that the Crown Prince had once tried to become Grand Secretary Gu’s disciple, but to no avail.

He kept convincing himself that Xiao Ning could successfully become his disciple because she was Grand Secretary Gu’s granddaughter to begin with. However, when he went to court the next day, he still felt that the gazes of others were filled with mockery.

However, Xiaoxiao, who was envious and jealous of him, was having a headache. She looked at the basket of books that her grandfather had specially sent over and felt dizzy.

[Baby, is there a skill that can copy knowledge into my mind?]

Of course not, so Xiaoxiao could only memorize the books herself. After experiencing tossing and turning in bed, she felt that she could not suffer alone, especially when Gu Ruoruo specially came to show off that the younger generation of the Gu Family and the younger generation of the Shen Family were preparing to go out together.

The winter snow had just melted, and spring returned to the ground. It was another good season of the year. When the swallows returned to their nest, a new batch of rice was growing. Green leaves were sprouting, and hundreds of flowers were blooming. Hence, the young men and women who had been cooped up at home for months could not hold back their joy of going out to relax. They had long invited their good friends to admire the beautiful scenery of nature and feel spring’s breath.

To put it bluntly, they wanted to go out and play.

Xiaoxiao was unhappy when she heard that. “Niece, the plan for a year is spring, and the plan for a day is morning. Do you understand this logic?”

Gu Ruoruo didn’t listen and ran away with her friends. Xiaoxiao was unhappy and swore that she would go for a hike with Rong Yan at night.

Rong Yan was caught between laughter and tears. He thought that she was just saying it casually, but she really teleported to the border with Rong Yan that night.

It had been a few months since they last met, and the border had already changed drastically. Under the effect of the space soil that Xiaoxiao used the natural phenomenon simulator to sow from time to time, the originally barren sand was no longer the same as before. There were not many types of crops, but the yield was gratifying. They lay neatly in their respective areas, growing happily.

Xiaoxiao opened two melons and ate half a watermelon with Rong Yan. Of course, she got the NPC to spend money to buy them.

It was rich in juice and sweet. They could be said to be very good cantaloupe and desert watermelon.

The sales of these melons were quite tight now. It could be said that they had been reserved before the melon seedlings were unearthed. The people at the border who had been looking for a livelihood with frowns in the past were now full of smiles. They woke up every day full of fighting spirit.

Xiaoxiao nudged Rong Yan with her shoulder in satisfaction. “Look, this is the simplest happiness.”

In the past, Rong Yan felt that the happiness of others had nothing to do with him. Today, he felt that Xiaoxiao was right.

The two of them even went to the iron ore mine that had been moved out of the space. It now officially belonged to Great Xia, so Xiaoxiao could rest assured and make small moves. She secretly hid the ores stored in the space and threw them back into the mine.

The two of them felt that it was better not to make the production of this iron ore public, in case Xiongnu became popular and insisted on snatching it.

Gu Ruoruo and the others were going on an excursion, while she was “hiking”. Xiaoxiao felt that she had won completely, so she threw herself into her study life, which her grandfather had instructed her to do.

Although the space did not develop a simple, convenient, and suitable memorization method for a lazy bum, it had a speed of 60 times slower, which was already considered heaven-defying. Diligence could make up for stupidity, not to mention that Xiaoxiao was not stupid.

In order to have enough time to play, Xiaoxiao could use the space function whenever she wanted. Not long after, the officials in the court were surprised to find that the usually silent Grand Secretary Gu had become a chatterbox.

He told everyone how smart his granddaughter was, how she understood at a glance, and how she perfectly inherited the Gu Family’s bloodline… It made the officials wonder if the person in front of them was the real Grand Secretary Gu.

Occasionally, she would encounter some “passersby” who were either really or pretending to ask Xiaoxiao for advice. Xiaoxiao had no intention of pretending to be stupid and directly taught them an unforgettable lesson.

After all, if she did not do a good job of pretending to be a pig, she would really act like one.

The Yan Family understood this logic the most now.

In order to suppress Rong Yan’s brilliance, they had exposed all the dehydrated vegetables. In order to show their contribution to Great Xia, they had to set a satisfying price.

However, was Xiongnu that easy to get along with?

Especially the second prince, Chernan, who was becoming more and more eccentric.

On the surface, Xiongnu agreed to Great Xia’s offer to give the Crown Prince and the Yan Family face, but in reality…

“Your Highness, are we really going to give this silver to the Xiongnu people?”

The Crown Prince gritted his teeth angrily. “What else can we do?”

How could he make any mistakes at this juncture?

However, the “mistake” hit him like a bolt from the blue.

The Yan Family secretly sent a team to the border city… or rather, after the team sent to Xiongnu set off, the Crown Prince, whose eyelids twitched for a day, received bad news that made him furious—

“Was it intercepted? Why was it intercepted?”

The subordinate did not know how to explain. “No one knows what happened. Our people clearly did not relax for a moment. The people on night duty every night have to take turns. There are people guarding the carriage, but, but…”

He stammered, “B-b-but when we arrived at Xiongnu… it was actually all rocks when they opened the box…”

The Crown Prince suddenly smashed his teacup. “Rocks?”

“You bunch of trash!”
