?Chapter 677: Chapter 608: We’re All Grown Up, It’s Time to Talk About Marriage_1 Chapter 677: Chapter 608: We’re All Grown Up, It’s Time to Talk About Marriage_1 Her hand was tightly held, and Daohua couldn’t move, so she could only sit beside the bed watching over Xiao Yeyang, periodically checking on him and Yan Wentao. Seeing that both of them were sleeping soundly, she let down her guard.
Midday in summer often brought drowsiness, and having been busy for the past couple of days with preparations for Madam Li’s affordable present for Daddy’s birthday, Daohua was also tired. Her tension eased, and before she knew it, she began to doze off.
A quarter-hour later, Xiao Yeyang’s eyes suddenly opened. Shortly thereafter, a shadow appeared outside the room.
Xiao Yeyang flipped over and sat up abruptly. Only then did he see Daohua, who had fallen asleep on the edge of the bed with their hands clasped. A hint of a smile crossed his eyes. He carefully released his hand without making a sound and got out of bed. Walking to the window, he asked in a hushed voice, “Have you caught the man?”
The Hidden Guard outside replied, “I have failed. The monk has escaped. However, he has been struck with the Master’s ‘Blood-seal Throat-lock’ poison and is certain to die.”
Xiao Yeyang frowned, “Keep looking; I want to see the body. Also, the secret letter he took must be retrieved.”
The monk was one of the Royal Uncle’s Eight Princes Party. The secret letter he had taken was meant to be reported to his Royal Highness, containing a list of supporters of the Eight Princes Party, which had been uncovered through the Su Family’s investigations.
Furthermore, the monk knew the identities of Wentao and Wenkai. If their identities as Jinling Guards were exposed, future covert investigations into the Eight Princes Party would become much more difficult.
The last point, also the most critical, was that if the Royal Uncle learned of Wentao and Wenkai’s involvement in the incident at Sishan Village, the Yan Family could very likely face retaliation from the Eight Princes Party. He would not allow any harm to come to Daohua.
