When Qingyan left from the slums, she brought the three of them with her. Zizhu, who was following at her side, naturally didn't recognize these three, but Qingdai and Chishao were still very familiar with the three of them.
Because they were precisely the Thousand Beast Pavilion's four guardians' Qinglong, Baihu, and Zhuque.
They'd once seen their appearances before in a drawing. It's said that their martial art skills, in Jianghu, were not at all inferior to the Seven Star Hall. Moreover, they possess an intelligence network even more accurate than the Seven Star Hall.
She'd never imagined that Qingyan would actually be able to recruit the three of them. But she saw the calm look on Qingyan's face, as if she was already familiar with them.
When they returned to the General's manor, Su Yun just happened to see them. And Qingyan just very simply explained their identity. Qingyan's intentions were very simple, for a girl, there was still the need to have people at her side to protect her. She couldn't let Su Yun continuously worry about her.
Seeing Qingyan like that, Su Yun naturally also gladly agreed, but he still couldn't help testing the three's martial art skills. He could clearly tell that these three's martial art skills all came from the same place. But just exactly which sect, he couldn't tell.
"Daddy, they're all my bodyguards, as a General, how could you bully them." Qingyan looked to Su Yun and said in a pouting tone, "You need to believe your daughter's eyes."
Su Yun looked to Qingyan who was acting like a spoiled child and patted her head, "Daddy naturally believes you."
Qingyan smiled at Su Yun and nodded, "Isn't it just fine? From now on, they'll be daughter's courtyard's bodyguards. In the future, there definitely won't be anyone that will dare to bully your daughter."
Su Yun pinched her nose, "Who dares to bully my daughter, I'll chop them up."
"Yes, yes, yes. Daddy is the strongest. Daddy's a great hero in this daughter's heart." Qingyan looked to Su Yun and still spoke in a childish manner. "Oh right, I'm going to go arrange a place for them to stay now."
Su Yun looked to Qingyan and nodded with a smile, "Go ahead."
Qingyan brought Yaochi and the others back to her Yingshuang yard. After returning to the yard, the first thing she did was inquire about the matter related to Jiang Mengrou.
"Yaochi, regarding Jiang Mengrou's matter, how's the investigation going?" Qingyan sat down on a stone stool and asked in a heavy tone. Afterwards, she also poured them tea.
"Master, regarding Jiang Mengrou, this subordinate has more or less investigated most of it." With that said, he took out a secret letter and placed it into Qingyan's hands. "According to our informant's report, twenty years ago, Jiang Mengrou once had a crush on the General. But afterwards, the General married the madam, and the Jiang family, seemingly because were involved in a corruption and bribery cast that year, fell into ruins. Later, unknown as to how, she was saved by Su Ming."
After Qingyan unfolded the letter, a muslin piece fell out. Using her fingers, she dipped some water and placed it onto the muslin. Very soon, the handwriting appeared on the muslin.
This was the Thousand Beast Pavilion's most used method of transmitting information. This method is only applicable to the members of the Thousand Beast Pavilion. One is to prevent others from getting their secrets, and secondly, it's also for efficiency.
