Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

On the way back, Gu Chan sat in the carriage and thought secretly.

It was not until she entered Prince Chan's Mansion that she came to her senses and decided that she really couldn't play around anymore and had to get serious.

"Ouch! Madam, please stop hitting me. Isn't it okay if I'm wrong?"

“Ahhh…it hurts…”

Just as Gu Chan made the decision, she heard the former housekeeper's screams of pain.

Gu Chan looked up and almost burst out laughing.

At this time, in the front yard, the housekeeper was huddled on the ground, protecting his head with his hands, like a pig, and was being beaten with a stick held by Zuo Xin. A group of maids and servants stood by, their faces pale with fear.

On the contrary, the group of people who came from the general's mansion were all laughing and gloating over other people's misfortune.

Gu Chan stepped forward with a suppressed smile, stopped Zuo Xin and said, "Okay Madam, please don't beat him to death, or you won't be able to beat him tomorrow."

"Hmph! This bastard, he dared to go to the prince and complain about me. Fine! Don't you want to come back? This lady will take you all back now. From now on, if you do anything wrong, I will beat you severely until I am satisfied." Zuo Xin threw the stick to the ground and glared at the housekeeper who was curled up on the ground.

The butler was beaten black and blue, and wailed in pain, "Don't worry, Madam San, we will do things well in the future and will never dare to neglect them."

"Get out! Stop disgusting me here." Zuo Xin cursed angrily.

The housekeeper quickly rolled and crawled up from the ground, and fled to the backyard with the group of maids and servants.

Gu Chan waved her hand and said to the other group of maids and servants, "Alright, everyone stop watching and go do your own things!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone said in unison.

Then they also left.

Gu Chan helped Zuo Xin walk into the front hall and sat down, whispering in her ear, "How was it, did you enjoy the fight just now?"

"Of course I felt good, but I didn't beat him to death, which made me mad." Zuo Xin said unhappily.

"Don't be impatient. People like this need to be polished slowly. Look at Yu Da, that stubborn guy before. He was completely obedient after being polished by me. Don't be too impatient." Gu Chan consoled.

Zuo Xin nodded without comment.

Gu Chan said, "Then you keep busy. I have to go teach Yuan Jie physical skills. She will have a fight with the Thirteenth Princess in seven days."

"Then you have to teach her well and don't let her lose to Princess Thirteen. I hate Princess Thirteen more than her." Zuo Xin said.

Gu Chan nodded in agreement and immediately got up and went to the west wing of the backyard.

Soon Gu Chan came to the west wing. Yuan Jie was cleaning the yard at that time. As the west wing had not been lived in for a long time, it was not very clean.

Seeing Gu Chan coming, Yuan Jie stopped and said, "Master, how was your talk going?"

"The conversation went well. The father and son now truly treat me like family. Otherwise, they wouldn't have said those words to me from the bottom of their hearts." Gu Chan walked to the stone table and sat down.

"Humph! They are only doing that for Zuo Xin." Yuan Jie said disdainfully.

Gu Chan just smiled and didn't dwell on this issue too much.

Pulling Yuan Jie to sit next to her, she said earnestly, "You are weak now, not as strong as the Thirteenth Princess. If you want to defeat her in seven days, you will have to use surprising tactics to win."

"Master, do you have any good ideas?" Yuan Jie asked curiously.

"Ever since I copied the Soul-stealing Body Technique, I discovered that evil energy has a characteristic, which is that it likes to gather at a certain point on the body. I call it the evil point," Gu Chan explained.

Yuan Jie asked in confusion, "What's the weird part?"

"Yes, like now the evil energy in my body has been gathering in the middle of my chest. In this way, Princess Thirteen must be the same as me. The evil energy in her body must be gathered at a certain point on her body. So in these seven days, you only need to practice your strongest attack, and after seven days, you can find the evil point on her body and break it with one blow. She will definitely be defeated in a short time." Gu Chan said.

Yuan Jie nodded affirmatively, and hurriedly stood up and knelt down, bowing to Gu Chan and saying, "Master, I will never forget your kindness. If you need me in the future, I will not frown even if I have to go through fire and water to help you."

"Okay, get up quickly. I know that you are loyal to me, so there is no need to say so much. You just need to practice hard in the West Wing for the next seven days. Don't worry about other things. I will arrange everything for you." Gu Chan reached out and helped Yuan Jie up from the ground.

Yuan Jie responded gratefully.

After that, the two of them didn't say anything more, and Gu Chan left immediately and went to the study to rest.

Yuan Jie began to practice her strongest physical attack in the yard.

In the afternoon dusk.

Just as Gu Chan was lying in the study reading, Zuo Xin suddenly walked in from outside and said, "Husband, the Minister of Personnel, Lord Lin Yanlin, is here to see you."

"Lord Lin? Is that Lin Tian's grandfather?" Gu Chan asked.

"Yes, it's him." Zuo Xin nodded.

Gu Chan grinned and said, "Madam, I'm afraid we will make a lot of money next time. You just sit at home and count the money. By then, we must fill our treasury to the brim."

"Husband, are you really planning to do business with the Lin family's Tianya Liquor Store?" Zuo Xin said worriedly.

"What's wrong? Do you have any ideas?" Gu Chan asked curiously.

Zuo Xin walked over to her and sat down, saying seriously, "The Lin family belongs to the Fifth Prince, and now the Fifth Prince controls the Ministry of Personnel. This time, Lord Lin came to ask for an audience, and it must be the Fifth Prince who instigated him. The Fifth Prince is as cunning as a fox. He is much more difficult to deal with than the Third Prince. I'm afraid you will fall into his trap!"

"We have to compete to know who is strong and who is weak. I am not afraid of the crown prince, so why should I be afraid of the fifth prince?" Gu Chan said disdainfully.

What kind of tough guys had she not seen along the way? If she couldn't even handle the Fifth Prince right now, how could she compete with the Crown Prince?

Seeing how confident she was, Zuo Xin stopped talking, shut up, and left the study with her, heading to the front lobby to meet Lin Yan.

Soon the two of them arrived at the front yard lobby.

At this time, on the right side of the lobby, the Minister of Personnel Lin Yan was sitting on a chair sipping tea. He was already sixty years old this year. Not only were his temples gray, but he was also a little fat and his face showed fatigue.

When he saw Gu Chan coming, he quickly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and saluted her.

Gu Chan walked to the first seat and sat down, waving her hand and saying, "Master Lin, there is no need to be so polite, please take a seat!"

"Thank you, Prince Chan." Lin Yan said respectfully.

After saying that, he sat back in the chair behind him.

Then the two of them just looked at each other, sizing each other up secretly.

Since it was their first meeting, Lin Yan saw that Gu Chan was so young and immature, so there was a hint of contempt in his eyes when he looked at her.
