Ah Wei: “You guys are so noisy.”

Qing Yan and Jiang Hai said in unison, “Children shouldn’t interrupt when adults are talking!”

Ah Wei: “…”

Jiang Hai was not as familiar with the State Preceptor Hall as Qing Yan had imagined. Jiang Hai only knew the general direction of the Myriad Book Pavilion, but he was not sure where it was. They wandered around the State Preceptor Hall for more than two hours before they finally found a pavilion that did not look very eye-catching. There was no plaque on the pavilion.

Qing Yan frowned. “Are you sure this is the Myriad Book Pavilion?”

“Yes,” Jiang Hai said as he stared at the pavilion in the dark.

“It’s so easy to find. I don’t think there are any mechanisms or dangers. It’s not as heavily guarded as the Queen Manor,” Qing Yan said indifferently. He reached out and pushed open the door of the attic. At this moment, something unexpected happened. A row of sharp arrows shot over without warning. Qing Yan’s eyebrows twitched and he hurriedly drew his sword to block, but it was too late.

At the critical moment, fine silver needles shot towards the arrows like a large net. The arrows were minced into pieces, and Qing Yan survived.

Qing Yan’s back was drenched. He looked at Jiang Hai behind him in shock. Jiang Hai waved the Qianji Box in his hand. “Don’t thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank the Princely Heir.”

After this incident, Qing Yan did not dare to be careless anymore.

“Let’s go in,” Jiang Hai said.

They entered the pavilion.

On the other hand, Gu Elder Meng, who had been unconscious for a few days, finally woke up. When he woke up, he found himself lying in the residence assigned to him by the Queen Manor. He was dizzy for a while before he gradually remembered that he had fainted in the carriage back to the manor.

The coachman must have sent him back. He wondered how long he had been unconscious. Did Her Highness know about the snow toad? A maidservant walked in and saw Gu Elder Meng, whose eyes were wide open. She said in surprise, “Lord Meng is awake? I’ll inform Her Highness!”

Gu Elder Meng wanted to stop her, but she had already turned around. The Queen came quickly.

“Your Highness.” Gu Elder Meng lifted the blanket and was about to bow to her.

The Queen held out her hand. “Lord Meng, there’s no need to be so polite. Lord Meng has been unconscious for a few days and I was worried sick. Don’t move first. I’ll get the imperial doctor to take your pulse.”

Gu Elder Meng bowed. “Thank you, Your Highness.”

The Queen gestured to the maidservant in the room, and the maidservant led the imperial doctor in. The imperial doctor took Gu Elder Meng’s pulse and said to the Queen, “Your Highness, Lord Meng was too frightened, and his pulse is unstable. I will prescribe a prescription for Lord Meng to calm down. He will be cured in three to five days.”

“Thank you, Imperial Physician Wang.” The Queen nodded slightly.

“It’s my duty.” Imperial Physician Wang bowed and left with the first aid kit.

The Queen glanced at the servants in the room and said, “All of you can leave.”

“Yes.” The servants filed out.

Only the two of them were left in the room. The Queen looked at Gu Elder Meng solemnly. “What exactly happened in Gu Mountain? What happened to the others?”

Gu Elder Meng lowered his head in shame. “I’ve let Your Highness down. The mission has failed. Your Highness, please punish me.”

The Queen said, “Now is not the time to talk about this. Tell me about what happened in Gu Mountain.”

Gu Elder Meng said, “We’ve already obtained the snow toad, but an expert suddenly came from nowhere and killed the expert Your Highness gave me with a flick of his finger. He also snatched the snow toad away.”

When she heard this, the Queen gasped fiercely. From the moment Gu Elder Meng was carried back, she had guessed that the mission had failed. She just thought that the mission failed because they couldn’t obtain the snow toad. The snow toad was still in the Gu Mountain. She never expected that the snow toad had been snatched away.

The Queen’s eyes were cold as she said, “What’s the background of that person? He actually killed so many experts at once?”

Gu Elder Meng shook his head. “I’m not sure either. His methods are cruel. Not only did he kill our people, but he also killed a few other Gu Masters who entered the mountains to look for poisonous insects. I was useless and lost such an important thing.”

“It’s not your fault. Your mission was to find the snow toad. You did it. The mission to bring the snow toad back safely was theirs. I was careless.” The Queen said it casually, but her fingers were clenched tightly, and even her nails were digging into her flesh.
