This Luan Saber was his father’s relic. If he lost it, he would be a sinner. When Ji Shuisheng was anxious to go to An Guangxing’s camp, he hid the Luan saber in a tree. How could it be lost?

He thought that he had found the wrong tree, but he had clearly left a mark on the tree trunk. It could not be wrong. Someone must have discovered him when he put the knife down and stole the Luan knife from the tree when he left.

Ji Shuisheng was burning with anxiety, but he had no clue at all. This forest was connected in all directions, and he did not know when the Luan saber had been lost. It was equivalent to a stone sinking into the sea, nowhere to be found.

He searched for a while but couldn’t find it, so he had to return to his resting place.

In Luo City, An Guangxing led his troops to Yongw.a.n.g Grain Store. He didn’t enter from the main entrance but went straight to the back door to surround the grain store. He broke in and caught someone in the act.

He arrested all the people in the grain store and sent the account book and the account book of the Wan family’s corruption that Ji Shuisheng had given him to the capital.

Wan Yulin only learned about what happened in Luo City two days later. Stealing food for disaster relief was a severe crime, but Wan Yulin did not care. His biggest worries were his father’s illegitimate son and the loss of the account book.

Those officials were all planted by them. If the Emperor controlled and eliminated them, the Wan family would suffer a significant loss.

“Who did it?”

Wan Yulin gritted his teeth in anger. During this period, the Wan clan was unlucky and encountered many accidents.

Lu Yue shook his feather fan and frowned slightly as he said to Wan Yulin,

“The messenger pigeon said An Guangxing led his troops to wipe out Yongw.a.n.g Grain Store. I wonder who has the account book and Wan Yuxiang? If it falls into the hands of the emperor, it will be a significant disadvantage for us.

The Emperor can’t wait to make a move on the Wan family. He won’t let the Wan family off even without an account book.”

Wan Yulin’s face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm. He raised his head and looked out of the window.

“We haven’t caused enough trouble for the emperor to push his luck. There’s no need to keep the An family’s son who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.”

Ji Shuisheng had expected the An and Wan families to fight to the death.

Ji Shuisheng had no choice but to return to his resting place when he did not find the Luan saber. Qiu Yongkang was relieved to see that he had returned and quickly came over to ask,

“How is it going?”

“Everything is going well. How about you? Have you written the doc.u.ment?”

Ji Shuisheng explained simply before asking Qiu Yongkang how the paperwork for the Bodyguard Agency was coming along.

“I’m done. See if I missed anything.”

Qiu Yongkang took out his forged doc.u.ment from the bodyguard agency. The official seal of the Luo City Zhizhou was stamped on it.

Ji Shuisheng checked and nodded.

“That’s right; it’s the same. With this, we can hurry on our way.”

“I also made a double insurance.”

Ji Shuisheng took out the waist token An Guangxing had given him.

“Commander An’s waist token.”

“That’s great. With this, well be even safer.”

Qiu Yongkang did not expect such a pleasant surprise. He took the token excitedly, and Ji Shuisheng handed him five hundred taels of silver.

“There are also silver notes.”

“Shuisheng, you’re too amazing.”

Qiu Yongkang was even more excited now. Shuisheng had killed three birds with one stone this time. He had the money and the guarantee of unimpeded access, and he could also take revenge and disrupt the court.

“Let’s leave this troublesome place quickly. I wonder if we can use this waist token?”

Ji Shuisheng was not as happy as Qiu Yongkang. The An family was not as powerful as the Wan family. He would die if the Wan family knew that An Guangxing might have gotten the account book.

If The Wan family killed An Guangxing, the Wan family would know that he had delivered the account book to An Guangxing. Now, he could no longer use his face, nor could he use his waist token.

“Where’s Su Qing?”

Ji Shuisheng looked around but did not see Su Qing. His sister and the girls were gone, so he asked Qiu Yongkang.

“They’ve entered the mountain to pick herbs. Don’t worry; Zhong Yong is following them!”

Qiu Yongkang had been busy engraving seals. When he saw Su Qing taking the girls into the mountains to pick herbs, he sent Zhong Yong to protect them.

Even though he knew that Su Qing did not need Zhong Yong’s protection, he still let Zhong Yong follow them for peace of mind.

“Alright, let everyone pack up. We’ll hurry when Su Qing and the others return.”

Ji Shuisheng nodded and asked Qiu Yongkang to pa.s.s on the message.

Qin Feng saw the exhaustion in his grandson’s eyes and asked him with concern,

“Didn’t you do it well?”

“Done.”

Ji Shuisheng replied to his grandfather absentmindedly.

“Then why are you still unhappy?”

Qin Feng felt that Ji Shuisheng’s mood was not right, so he asked. Ji Shuisheng’s expression was dejected,

“I lost Father’s Luan saber.”

“Lost?”

Qin Feng raised his voice. That Luan Saber is Xiao Heng’s beloved object.

“I was careless.”

Ji Shuisheng felt even more depressed. Seeing that his grandson was in a bad mood, Qin Feng quickly comforted him,

“The treasured saber has recognized its master. Perhaps it will come back tomorrow.”

Ji Shuisheng was talking to his grandfather when he saw his sister and the girls from Peach Blossom Cove return. Xiaoying was carrying a deer in her hand, while Li Shuang’er and Jiang Yuyan were carrying wild rabbits and pheasants. They were all laughing and chatting happily as they walked.

Zhong Yong carried two hammers and followed behind the girls. With the lesson from last time, Zhong Yong did not dare to chase after the prey he saw like before. Instead, he stayed close to Xiaoying and the others.

“Brother, look at what I’ve hit.”

When Xiaoying saw Ji Shuisheng, she proudly raised the deer to show her brother.

“You hit him?”

Seeing his sister Ji Shuisheng’s irritable mood had improved a little, he casually asked.

“Yes, I saw it when I entered the mountain and shot it.”

Xiaoying nodded. Her proud smile looked especially beautiful under the sunlight. Qiu Yongkang walked over and saw Xiaoying’s smile. His serious face also smiled.

“Big Brother, I’ve brought her back.”

Zhong Yong walked over with a hammer and said to his eldest brother,

” Su Qing is still in the mountains. I’ll go and find her.

Stay here and help me pack up. I’ll go and take a look.”

Ji Shuisheng stopped Zhong Yong and asked him to stay behind to protect the villagers and help pack things. There would be chaos if there were too many people. If the old, weak, sick, and disabled moved slowly, someone would have to help.

“Isn’t there Uncle Qu and Uncle Jiang?”

Zhong Yong did not want to stay. He saw a wild boar in the mountains, and his heart ached that he did not catch it.

Ji Shuisheng’s face darkened.

“If I tell you to stay, then stay.”

“Alright then.”

Zhong Yong pouted and agreed unhappily. He looked at the mountain reluctantly. His meat was gone. Su Qing’s wild boar meat was delicious.

Ji Shuisheng did not bother about Zhong Yong. He was unhappy and forgot about it in the blink of an eye.

Su Qing’s excuse for returning the girls was that she wanted to make medicine in the mountains. The girls were already used to Su Qing not allowing others to watch when she made medicine, so they had no objections. They put down the medicine they had picked and went back first.

Su Qing waited for them to walk far away before putting all the medicine into the system. Xiao Qi was so happy that she kept spinning around on the spot. The empty medicine box could finally be filled again. Master was hardworking.

Su Qing followed the sound of the water and found a small river. There was no one by the river. The water flowing down from the mountain splashed on the river. The river was warm under the afternoon sun, just right for bathing..
