Chapter 490: The Mansion’s Spy

EndlessFantasy Translation        Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Emperor Chu Gujian was utterly ruthless.

The black-robed man said, “Then you should use a spy.”

“That’s a chess piece that has been nurtured for many years,” Chu Gujian said,

“Are you going to move now?”

The emperor did not want to make a move on the spy and expose him because he could hide in the dark and relay information about the mansion back to him.

Chu Gujian had placed the spy deep within the mansion, and no one knew about the spy, not even Lan Xiyao or his wife. After all, Chu Gujian wanted to keep the spy hidden and use him at a critical moment.

However, he could not use the spy now as he could not allow Lan Ruozhu to grow into a powerful force like Lan Xiyao.

‘That kid will be a formidable threat. Also, I noticed the prince is more intelligent than his father, but the princess is none the wiser.’

The black-robed man said coldly, “If you don’t use your spies, do you still want to eliminate the threat that is the mansion?”

“It’s indeed tempting,” Chu Gujian replied.

Lan Ruobing was full of rage when she dreamt of this. She wanted to kill the emperor but was only one year old and could not act. She could only remain anxious.

Besides, it was just a dream, and she was unsure whether or not it was real. After all, there was no such situation in Lan Ruobing’s modern life. Still, she was anxious and wanted to know who the person behind the emperor was.

Lan Ruobing looked over even in her sleep. She knew it was best to eliminate this person if she wanted to get close to the emperor. Gradually, she saw the person more clearly.

However, the person’s entire body was shrouded in darkness, and she could not entirely make out his appearance. Even so, she saw the pattern on the man’s black robe.

It did not look like an ornament but more like a totem belonging to an organization. Such organizations also existed in the modern world and would also have unique markings. Also, the totem she saw was not ordinary.

‘Who is this man in black?’

Lan Ruobing felt things were not as simple as they seemed. She wanted to continue watching but woke up immediately. Then she looked and blinked at her brother, who had his eyes wide open by the bed.

‘Didn’t he sleep?’

“Brother, couldn’t you sleep?” Lan Ruobing swiftly turned around and approached Lan Ruozhu.

Lan Ruozhu also turned around and hugged her sister. “Sister, sister.”

He just called his sister and said nothing more.

Meanwhile, the two servant girls watched from the sidelines and whispered,

“Prince Lan, Princess Lan, what’s wrong?”

Bing Suwan was the one who hired these two servants and made them responsible for taking care of the prince and the princess. The duo enjoyed watching the siblings interact as the children seemed very loving toward each other.

The servants thought the young princess was exceptionally clever and adorable. It was easy for them to care for the young prince and princess because they could directly ask the princess if they had any questions. After all, the young princess could express herself very clearly.

Lan Ruobing said in a crisp voice, “I want to see Mother.”

The young princess’s voice was delightful to hear to the servants. They thought she was charming and likable, always wanting to hug the young princess.

However, Lan Ruobing did not want them to hug her and always tried her best to walk by herself because she wanted to work hard to become stronger and train her tiny body.

Therefore, she would practice walking whenever she had the chance. She was also smarter than her peers and could even walk nimbly, even though she was only one year old.

The servants knew the young princess was looking for her mother. One looked after Lan Ruobing while the other went looking for Bing Suwan.

The princess was in her room checking the message she received from her subordinates when she heard the servant entering. Upon hearing the servant’s report, she hurriedly went to look for her daughter.

“Mother, let’s have a secret talk,” Lan Ruobing said when she saw her mother.

Bing Suwan knew her daughter wanted to talk privately when she heard the young princess’s words, so she asked the servants to leave. Bing Suwan hugged her daughter and asked, “What do you want to tell me, my dear daughter?”

Lan Ruobing’s tiny hand moved to Bing Suwan’s ear before the little girl said, “Mother, I dreamed the evil emperor wants to harm my brother. There are spies in our mansion. He wants to use his spies.”

Bing Suwan would not believe it if someone else told her that. However, she wholeheartedly believed her daughter. After all, Lan Ruobing had been intelligent since birth. She had the Bing clan’s bloodline, so her abilities differed from ordinary people.

Bing Suwan gently stroked her daughter’s hair and said, “Don’t worry. Mother will handle it. You just have to be happy.”

Lan Ruobing nodded and hugged her mother’s neck. “Mother, you must be safe, too. ”

She would not let anything happen to her mother. She kissed Bing Suwan’s cheek as she spoke.

Bing Suwan’s heart grew heavy, but it melted whenever she looked at her son and daughter. “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine. After all, I must stay by you and your brother’s side.”

“Mother, I also saw patterns, patterns,” Lan Ruobing said after thinking of the totem she saw in her dream. Since her wrist was still weak, she could not draw the complicated totem, so she could only tell her mother about it first.

Then she gestured with her hands, trying to show her mother what the totem looked like. Since Bing Suwan had spent much time with her daughter, she could understand the young princess well.

Bing Suwan asked, “Patterns? A totem of some sort?”

Lan Ruobing nodded. ‘Mother understood what I meant.’

Bing Suwan knew her daughter could not draw it yet, so she said, “Don’t be anxious, little one. Draw it for me when you know how to write and draw.”

Not long after, a servant girl in the mansion got caught stealing and was dealt with. When Lan Ruobing heard about it, she knew the servant was a spy.

However, she knew things were not that simple.

Then time passed slowly, and the two royal siblings grew up together. They were inseparable—in the blink of an eye, they were three years old.

The two three-year-old siblings were known as prodigies because they quickly learned everything. Lan Xiyao and his wife had also invited a famous teacher to educate their children.

The young prince and princess would also read in their study daily. They became more intelligent and more capable by studying hard every day.

Meanwhile, Lan Ruobing possessed a photographic memory and could read very quickly. Fortunately, the mansion had many books, much more than the Imperial Palace.

That was because the ancestors of the mansion had set up the study room themselves after collecting various books from numerous places.

Lan Ruobing gathered plenty of knowledge about this era through the books in the study. Although she had not traveled far, she understood this era sufficiently.

She still wanted to grow up quickly and nurture her power to protect the deceased royal’s mansion.

Then one night, she had another dream. This time, someone in the mansion had imprisoned her brother. The suspect was an older woman who had hidden there for many years and never took action.

The older woman had taken advantage of Lan Xiyao and Bing Suwan’s absence and brought poison into the mansion..
