Chapter 638: 306 Pampered Grandson Maniac (double update)_5 Chapter 638: 306 Pampered Grandson Maniac (double update)_5 This is a master, a real master!

“You give it a try.” The old Marquis stopped his moves and tossed the Red-Tasseled Spear to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao smoothly caught it.

In her previous life, she had too little contact with cold weapons. Besides daggers, there were surgical knives. Suddenly, she was handed a Red-Tasseled Spear, and she was a bit gobsmacked.

Her first move was done incorrectly.

Whether it was Gu Changqing or any soldier under the Marquis, he would have already thrashed them with a whip.

But in front of her little brother Gu, the Marquis seemed to have extraordinary patience, he himself didn’t know what was going on.

When Gu Jiao made a mistake for the seventh time, the Marquis couldn’t control his temper.

Gu Jiao looked at him with innocent eyes, with an endearing touch.

Marquis: “…”

Alright, alright, she’s still young, just teach slowly.

“I’ll demonstrate it to you one last time, watch carefully, and if you make another mistake, I won’t teach you anymore.”

By the eighteenth demonstration ——

“This really, really is the last time!”

The Marquis was about to collapse!

This kid was here to torment him, right?!

Why could she learn so quickly with her bare hands, but couldn’t get the hang of a single Red-Tasseled Spear?!

Just as the Marquis was almost spitting blood, Gu Jiao managed to clumsily complete a whole set of spear techniques.

The Marquis collapsed on the ground, feeling on the verge of collapse!

Who exactly was training whom here?

Why on earth did he go out of his way to teach this kid how to practice martial arts?

He nearly lost his life because of it!

“That’s…that’s it for today!”

His arms and legs were about to break, his waist was sprained.

But Gu Jiao wasn’t done yet.

She had tasted the sweetness of success.

However, seeing that he really looked like he was about to fall over, out of her conscience, she decided not to push him any further.

She took out a little notebook, and swiftly wrote: How about we practice again next time?

Marquis’s temples twitched wildly!

Next time?

There’s going to be a next time?

Marquis outright refused!

Gu Jiao thought for a moment, put out two tiny fingers as white as jade, gently held onto his sleeve, and those pair of innocent watery phoenix eyes under the mask looked innocently at him.

The Marquis vaguely mm-hmm’d a response.

Gu Jiao shook her head happily.

The Marquis looked at the little head shaking in front of him, and inexplicably wanted to tease!

Of course, he barely managed to restrain himself.

Because he thought it was wrong to tease his own brother.

This scene was all witnessed by Gu Chengfeng who was tailing Gu Jiao.

If others couldn’t recognize Gu Jiao, could he fail to recognize her?

He was the one who introduced Gu Jiao to the martial arts academy, and God knows how many times he had conspired with Gu Jiao in a mask!

Speaking of… so his grandfather is into this kind of thing?

With his grandfather’s temper, he thought that girl would be beaten into a pile of fertilizer!

Gu Chengfeng followed Gu Jiao because he had found some clues about Xianle Inn. He planned to sell the news to this girl, and he won’t rip her off, the family price, a thousand taels!

But who would have expected this girl to play with their grandfather for so long today. It seems there’s no chance to talk about it today.

Nevermind, it’d be the same if he found her another day.

Gu Chengfeng returned to the Marquis Residence.

Not long after, the old Marquis also returned.

He was exhausted.

Teaching Gu Changqing wasn’t this tiring because he could beat Gu Changqing at will, but that kid… he, he couldn’t bear to do it.

As a result, he suffered internal injuries from frustration.

“Grandfather!”

Gu Chengfeng suddenly emerged from behind the corridor.

The Marquis got startled and gave cold gaze when he realizes it was Gu Chengfeng, “It’s late-night and you’re not sleeping, what are you doing hiding here?”

After seeing another side of his grandfather, Gu Chengfeng seemed to be less scared of him. He laughed and said, “It was getting late and grandfather hadn’t returned, so I was worried about you and waited here.”

The old Marquis gave Gu Chengfeng a suspicious glance.

Gu Chengfeng immediately put on a slight smile, “Grandfather, could you lend me your mount Nie Feng for a few days?”

Nie Feng was the old Marquis’s steed, even more imposing than Gu Changqing’s horse, and Gu Chengfeng had been craving to ride it for a long time but never had the opportunity.

The old Marquis cherished his horse as though it was his life.

Riding his horse was like riding him.

The old Marquis ignored Gu Chengfeng entirely and strode towards the courtyard.

Gu Chengfeng pulled out a trick he learned from Gu Jiao; extending his index and middle fingers, he gently grabbed the old Marquis’s sleeve.

The old Marquis turned his head back.

He looked at him, starting to shamelessly act cute.

…The old Marquis slapped him with a big, resounding smack!

Gu Chengfeng was directly thrown into the air, and with a smack, he slammed into a pillar. He stuck there for a while before sliding down to the ground.

Gu Chengfeng: “…”

Where did he go wrong?

Why was he always the one to get hurt?

Using the same trick, when Gu Jiao did it, it was soft and cute.

When Gu Chengfeng did it, the old Marquis thought he was acting like a nagging woman!

Even the old Marquis got goosebumps!

Before he could react, his hand had already responded.

Gu Chengfeng was slapped so badly that he had to be carried away by his servants for the rest of the night!

Meanwhile, after leaving the Martial Arts Academy, Gu Jiao saw that it was getting late and decided to head directly home.

She took a shortcut, which was inevitably somewhat remote. When she was passing a quiet, deserted street, she suddenly heard a clanging sound, followed by a familiar yell– “Damn it! Even dare to block my way!”

It was the voice of Eunuch Wei!

Gu Jiao’s eyes turned cold, she changed her direction, and climbed up the roof using the wall. From the roof, she leaped down onto another street.

The distance was somewhat far, Gu Jiao increased her speed, but by the time she arrived at the scene, Eunuch Wei was already lying in a pool of blood.

“Eunuch Wei!” Gu Jiao rushed forward and took out a piece of gauze and hemostatic powder from her bosom to stop his bleeding.

But Eunuch Wei, his hand covered in blood, tightly grabbed her wrist: “Don’t… Don’t mind me… Go and save… His Majesty…”

With a whoosh, Gu Jiao quickly bandaged his wound around the stomach: “Wait for me!”

Gu Jiao followed the direction Eunuch Wei pointed at to reach the emperor who was under siege.

The emperor was also injured, the last royal bodyguard covering for his escape was penetrated through the heart with a sword.

Just as a man in black was about to decapitate the emperor, a Red-Tasseled Spear whistled through the air. With a breaking sound, it pierced through the man’s shoulder blade and nailed him to the wall with a whoosh!

Gu Jiao felt the true power of the Red-Tasseled Spear if she was just playing before in the Martial Academy!

Blood splashed all over the emperor’s face!

The emperor coulapsed onto the ground, completely stunned!

Gu Jiao grabbed the emperor: “Let’s go!”

When another wave of men in black arrived, no trace of the emperor remained in the alley.

Gu Jiao first hid the emperor in a cowshed, then turned around to find Eunuch Wei, but she couldn’t find him.

The emperor was injured.

If the enemy wanted to trace, they would definitely start with the Medical Hall.

With that thought, Gu Jiao brought the person back to Bishui Alley.

Going to Grandfather’s house wouldn’t work, going to Xiao Liulang’s house wouldn’t work either, as little monk was already asleep by this time.

After considering all options, there was only one empty room in the house.

Gu Jiao helped the person into Grandmother’s room.

“What’s wrong, Jiaojiao?” Madam Yao came out after hearing the noises.

Gu Jiao put the person on the bed and said to Madam Yao, “Nothing, just a patient.”

“Do you need help?” asked Madam Yao.

“Boil some hot water,” Gu Jiao said.

“Alright,” Madam Yao went to the kitchen.

“Madam, Madam, I’ll do it!” Yu Yaya put down the half-washed clothes and said to Madam Yao, “You go rest in the room, I’ll boil the water!”

Madam Yao nodded, she looked worriedly towards the room.

But, Gu Jiao had already closed the door.

The wound from the stab on the Emperor was in a tricky spot, a bit higher on the thigh, and he would have been castrated!

Gu Jiao lit up all the candles, even used the Night Light Pearl that Grandmother gave to Gu Yan, opened the first aid kit, and started performing… er, a surgery on the Emperor!
