Xiao Wangye's Beloved Wife

Chapters 74. Our Secret Four

Baili Ruyi swung her sword at the front yard of the residence where she was staying for a while. He had no home in the Capital City, as the entire noble family of Baili was outside the capital and focused on martial arts and cultivation. Baili was the only noble family who did not interfere at all in government affairs, they were busy with their own world.

The wound on his shoulder had slowly improved, no longer as wet and severe as before. Back then in his head there was only one thought, Huang Mingxiang's request. Right, before the woman left for the Palace, Huang Mingxiang took the time to chat for a while with Baili Ruyi.

Gu Sinjie quietly came over and immediately said, "It seems like it's getting better." This made Baili Ruyi startled, then quickly turned her head as she unsheathed the sword to the side of Gu Sinjie's neck.

"Eits ... Miss." Gu Sinjie smiled faintly, then put away Baili Ruyi's sword plan using her index finger.

Baili Ruyi stored back her sword, this winter suddenly there was no coldness whatsoever as her body was currently hot sweating from sword playing.

"It's rare that I see you being serious, what's wrong?" gu Sinjie asked curiously.

Baili Ruyi shook her head. "none. You better go, ruin the view."

Gu Sinjie snorted. "It is precisely my presence that beautifies the scenery." Then Gu Sinjie asked again, "Tell me, what's on your mind? I can't let you keep a secret, what if it harms Xiao Wangfu?"

Baili Ruyi shook her head, she immediately walked inside her room. "There's no secret whatsoever, I just focused on playing the sword earlier."

"Hey .. Come on, we've been friends for dozens or even decades. Don't try to lie to me, I memorize every movement and look on your face" Gu Sinjie replied, following Baili Ruyi's footsteps from behind.

Baili Ruyi put her sword on the table, took off her coat and sat down on the chair. Gu Sinjie continued to follow the woman, now sitting before her.

"This is about Xiao Wangfei" said Baili Ruyi, then poured warm tea into her cup.

Gu Sinjie frowned. "Xiao Wangfei's? What's wrong with her?"

Baili Ruyi's gaze started to get serious, making Gu Sinjie feel a little strange from rarely seeing Baili Ruyi seriously. Seeing that the woman was serious, meaning that the problem was also really serious, Gu Sinjie stopped being so disrespectful and started taking things seriously.

"Xiao Wangfei was planning to meet the Great Envoy to Mount Lang Tao to look for Xiao Wangye's foot medicine," Baili Ruyi replied, then continued asking,"Is there really something that threatens Gege's five hundred thousand soldiers?"

Gu Sinjie's face turned cold upon hearing this, then nodded. "Yes, the threat level is quite serious. The likelihood of war is seventy percent for now. If Wangye did not lead a direct army to fight, the nobles or the victorious individuals from the very beginning wanted to take out hundreds of thousands of soldiers it would use the excuse of 'borrowing'. That's dangerous."

Baili Ruyi clutched the cup that was on the table. "Then how did Gege respond?"

Gu Sinjie shook his head, sighing. "Right now Wangye is just trying to contain the turmoil. If the day on which the war broke out was to come, then-wait! Did Wangfei hear my conversation with Wangye?" Gu Sinjie was aware of something, his eyes looking at Baili Ruyi slightly glared.

Baili Ruyi nodded. "Most likely yes, because I know this information from Wangfei."

Gu Sinjie frowned deeply, sighing furiously. "In this kind of situation Wangfei's actions and intentions were not wrong, however ... Meeting the Great Envoy was extremely dangerous. We tried before, but failed. If Wangfei were to visit the Great Envoy for Wangye again, it would most likely also be rejected again."

"What was the reason Wangye was rejected?" ask Baili Ruyi.

Gu Sinjie let out a small breath. "Clearness. Wangye was rejected because her heart was not any sincerity, cold. The Great Envoy did not accept a dead heart."

Baili Ruyi stood up. "Wangfey! Then Wangfei will succeed!"

Gu Sinjie shook his head. "It's not that easy, Ruyi. The Great Envoy saw not only from the heart of a person was alive or not, but also from determination, intention, and purpose. If Wangfei managed to have the important points it was also not necessarily safe to pass the danger on Lang Tao mountain. The mountain had many terrible strange animals, it took four days for Wangye to reach the top of the mountain and meet the Great Envoy."

"I will accompany Wangfei, Sinjie." Baili Ruyi looked at Gu Sinjie seriously, pointing at herself.

Gu Sinjie shook his head. "Bad idea, Ruyi. Your body has not even fully recovered, fighting with those monstrous beasts using your weak body is now tantamount to suicide. Wangye would also definitely not allow Wangfei to set foot on Mount Lang Tao."

Baili Ruyi shook her head. "I'm not alone, there's still Yui. My original home is on the far side of the mountain, Sinjie. Fighting and living in the forest had already become commonplace for the blood of the Baili nobility. You don't have to worry."

"You don't understand, Ruyi. Mount Lang Tao is different." His eyes stared intently at Baili Ruyi, disagreeing with the woman's idea.

"From the outside I hear you guys constantly calling my title, what's up?" Huang Mingxiang's voice rang out, making Gu Sinjie and Baili Ruyi stand up and immediately bow towards Huang Mingxiang.

Huang Mingxiang had just returned from the Palace, then decided to immediately return to Xiao Wangfu processing the Gold God into medicine. But before that he wanted to meet Baili Ruyi first to have a discussion.

"Wangfei" said Gu Sinjie and Baili Ruyi.

"Wangfei, are your plans to meet the Great Envoy for real?" gu Sinjie asked directly without making small talk.

Huang Mingxiang smiled, then walked over to the chair that was in Baili Ruyi's room. Baili Ruyi poured tea into a new cup for Huang Mingxiang, then received a medium-sized box given by Huang Mingxiang, she had no idea what the contents of this box were.

"Gu Sinjie, don't say anything to Wangye about this." Huang Mingxiang was still staring at the tea, but afterwards glanced at Gu Sinjie sharply. This was his first glare for Gu Sinjie, leaving the man stunned. "This is my command" Huang Mingxiang continued.

Gu Sinjie nodded, after which sighed softly. "Niangniang, but Lang Tao Mountain is very dangerous, you have of course heard the story about this mountain, right?"

Huang Mingxiang nodded. "Yes, I know."

"Then from that, Wangfei. You can't just haphazardly come to Lang Tao's mountain and meet the Great Envoy. Although you already have Ruyi as a guard, but her body is still weak at the moment. Fighting with these terrible animals over there is very risky." Gu Sinjie tried to persuade Huang Mingxiang to abandon his intentions.

Huang Mingxiang nodded again. "I understand Mr. Gu's concern, but I'm not stupid either. I definitely have preparations, Mr. Gu need not worry."

Baili Ruyi and Gu Sinjie frowned, staring in wonder and curiosity at Huang Mingxiang.

Huang Mingxiang glanced at Baili Ruyi. "My arrival here wants to make those preparations with you, Ruyi. I know Lang Tao's mountain is very dangerous, a bad plan if I go there only rely on protection from you and Yui alone. Therefore, I asked for your help to teach me martial arts. I've been wanting to learn martial arts for a long time, but I always didn't. Because now my time is free, so it's better to learn from now and prepare to go to Lang Tao's mountain."

Baili Ruyi and Gu Sinjie were stunned. Right, it was likely that they would succeed against those monsters if Huang Mingxiang also fought. Because later they will be busy protecting themselves, the three work together and fight.

"But ... will Gege approve your plan?" baili Ruyi asked doubtfully, she was still afraid to fight Xiao Muqing.

"If we had to ask the man's permission first, it would definitely not be allowed. Better this plan is known only to the four of us. Mr. Gu, Ruyi, Yui, and I," Huang Mingxiang replied, Su Mama he did not participate because indeed the woman would not go to Lang Tao mountain.

"But if Wangye caught you learning martial arts, how?" ask Baili Ruyi again.

Huang Mingxiang shrugged both of his shoulders indifferently. "Let's just say that now I'm interested in martial arts."

Gu Sinjie and Baili Ruyi looked at each other, as if they were discussing using telepathic science.

Huang Mingxiang smiled even deeper. "We have to help Wangye, no matter what happens. My job is to make my husband better."

Gu Sinjie and Baili Ruyi looked back at Huang Mingxiang, then nodded steadily. "Well, Wangfei."

Huang Mingxiang chuckled, delighted. "Then, Mr. Gu. Forgive me for having to trouble you, but .. can you please call the personal physician Xiao Wangfu?"

Gu Sinjie was confused. "You sick, Niangniang?" It was thought Gu Sinjie, as there was no way the healer would be summoned for Baili Ruyi anymore. Baili Ruyi had already improved enough, only her body was still limp and not as strong as before. But not until it requires a healer again to control it.

"No, I have to make medicine for Wangye," Huang Mingxiang replied.

"Medicine?" gu Sinjie and Baili Ruyi asked together.

Huang Mingxiang nodded, then took the medium-sized box again from Baili Ruyi, opened it on the table while saying, "This is the Gold God belonging to the Great Envoy sold at the forbidden auction of the Empire."

"W-what?!" Surprised them both.
