"Heh." Yun Can laughed out of anger.

"It's really ridiculous that Prince is acting this way. You dare to come up the mountain today, so you must know what happened in the past few days. Your subordinates have already found them, so why do you need my escort? The people in my Yunxiao sect are all abandoned children. Living in peace in a corner is already our greatest kindness. We don't even care about the people at the foot of the mountain. Prince has made a wrong calculation." Yun Can passed Canghua and went back to eat roast chicken.

"It was because of my subordinates that I learned that my father was not my father. As the young lady said, the court is full of twists and turns, and everyone wants to get involved in the power struggle. What I said is for the people of Dongcang Country, and it is absolutely true."

"My father has only four sons. The eldest brother has been weak since childhood, with a disabled right leg. He is self-deprecating and cowardly. The fourth emperor is still young. Only the third brother is of the same age as me and is ambitious. If the third brother really has the talent to govern the country, what does it matter if I sacrifice my life? I also don't want to see rivers of blood and brothers killing each other." Canghua walked in front of Yun Can.

"But my third brother is greedy and tyrannical. Since he entered the court, he has embezzled disaster relief funds, cheated in the imperial examinations, competed with the people for profit, bullied men and women, and even wiped out entire families. If he ascends the throne, how can the people live in peace?"

"What does that have to do with me?"

"I came to invite you here because I really appreciate your skills and thoroughness. Another point is that I have appeared in the Yunxiao Sect before. Given my third brother's temperament, he would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go. It's impossible for you to stay out of this."

"Really? Then I'll wait and see what the third prince can do." No matter what Canghua said, Yun Can remained unmoved.

"Forget it, I forced you to do it." Cang Hua knew that he couldn't persuade Yun Can.

"This is the deed to Yunxiao Mountain. Whether you escort me or not, this is my sincere gift. Please accept it. The matter is urgent, and Canghua cannot stay for long. If I am lucky enough to kill the traitor, I will definitely repay Miss Yun'an for saving my life." Canghua no longer wasted time with Yuncan.

Yun Can accepted the deed from Cang Hua. Saving Cang Hua from that state was a miracle, and required some good medicine, so she naturally accepted the deed.

Yunxiao Mountain was originally an ownerless land. The founder of the Yunxiao Sect was also an abandoned baby girl who was raised by wolves in the mountains. Later, she got some opportunities, learned some skills and traveled around the world. She picked up another abandoned baby girl and finally returned to Yunxiao Mountain. The original Yunxiao Sect was just two thatched huts in the mountains.

Later, as they picked up more baby girls, they had to start thinking about making a living, which slowly led to the development of the Yunxiao Sect. The Yunxiao Sect had many businesses under its name, but the sect's location was not theirs. Few people could set foot in the Yunxiao Sect, and the Yunxiao Sect was not a place that liked to cause trouble. Therefore, no one came to cause trouble.

Now that Canghua had resolved the matter, Yuncan accepted it generously.

As for the fact that the Third Prince discovered that the Yunxiao Sect was involved with Canghua.

If what Cang Hua said was true, then the Third Prince was no pushover. As long as Cang Hua returned alive, the Yunxiao Sect would definitely be on the Third Prince's list of targets. After all, it was Cang Hua who had gone to Yunxiao Mountain. Whether the Yunxiao Sect rescued Cang Hua or not was irrelevant.

If what Cang Hua said is false, then there is no need to be afraid.

After Cang Hua left, Yun Can carried the pheasant to the kitchen. The pheasant was very plump, so he roasted half of it and made chicken soup with the other half. After a delicious meal, he went to the library to read.

Today's life is really carefree.

Occasionally, I would receive pigeon messages from my master, telling him about his experiences along the way, especially after arriving in Lin'an City. The sect competition was a grand event in the martial arts world. All the sects and schools, all kinds of people, gathered there, and it was extremely lively.

Yun An also wrote that it was a great pity that Yun Can didn't go. She emphasized how many delicious foods there were and said that when she returned, she would buy some that would keep for her to try.

Yuncan's reply was naturally full of expectations.

Until that day, she received a letter from her master. It mentioned the coup in Dongcang Kingdom. Without her, Cang Hua had indeed returned to Dongli City, but he was seriously injured.

Canghua's return caused the third prince to rise up in arms. The emperor was forced to write an abdication edict, and the eldest and fourth princes were killed. Canghua, who had finally returned to Dongli, escaped under the protection of his confidants.

The new emperor issued a nationwide manhunt for Cang Hua. He also issued a series of decrees, increasing various taxes and levies, requiring the selection of young and beautiful women from all over the country to be sent to the palace, and also building a temporary palace, which required the recruitment of a large number of civilians.

The people of Dongcang were in panic and resentment was everywhere.

Yuncan frowned when he saw what was in the letter.

"Alas," Yun Can sighed. He then packed his bags, closed the mountain gate, and headed down the mountain.

Yun Can headed towards Dongli City. Using his Qinggong skills to travel faster, he traveled day and night. Finally, he arrived at a haunted house in Dongli City.

"You've already managed to return to Dongli City, why are you still in such a mess?" Yun Can climbed over the wall and entered.

"Swish, swish, swish." Canghua's guards drew their weapons.

Cang Hua waved his hand from his recliner, and the men withdrew their weapons.

"It's my fault that I didn't ask a girl to escort me."

Bai Can walked over and took his pulse. With the knife wound and poisoning, it was a miracle that he was still alive. He pulled out a medicine bottle from his small bag and poured out a white pill.

"Eat."

Cang Hua took it without hesitation and swallowed it.

"This is an antidote pill that can cure all poisons. But your knife wound is only half an inch away from being able to be saved. Even if it is cured now, it will shorten your lifespan. You must not overwork yourself, otherwise you only have ten years left." Yun Can said directly.

"Ten years is enough. Miss, are you willing to help me now?" Canghua said.

"What can I do?" Yun Can asked.

"Bring the fourth prince here." Cang Hua gave the order, and someone went down and brought in a little boy about seven or eight years old. The boy's eyes were dark and his face was haggard, obviously because he was frightened and couldn't sleep at night.

"I only ask that you, young lady, protect my younger brother and teach him carefully. Once I recover from my injuries, everything will become clear." Cang Hua entrusted his fourth brother, Canglan, to Yun Can. If he succeeded, his fourth brother would inherit the throne. If he failed, Yun Can would also protect Canglan and ensure a smooth life.

"Take this recipe. If you can put all the ingredients together and soak in it for an hour every day, your body will recover faster and you will live a few more years." Yun Can took out another recipe for medicinal bath from his bag and handed it to Cang Hua.

"Thank you." Cang Hua thanked sincerely.

"You can't live here, can you come with me?" Yun Can squatted down, looked into Canglan's eyes, and asked seriously.

"who are you?"

"Yuncan, your master."

Canglan glanced back at Canghua and saw him nod. The Crown Prince's men were trustworthy.

"Master, I bow to Canglan." The little kid saluted politely. Yuncan accepted the greeting and helped him up. He took Canglan's hand and looked at Canghua.

"He can't live here, and neither can I."

"I will feel at ease leaving it to the young lady. Fourth brother, take care." Cang Hua looked at Cang Lan and gave him sincere instructions.

"Take care, Prince." Canglan bowed to Canghua. Then he took Yuncan's hand. Yuncan easily jumped out of the wall with Canglan and left in the dark.

Canglan resisted the urge to look back and just prayed in his heart that the two brothers would meet again one day.

He was luckier than his eldest brother. If his second brother hadn't swapped him out early, he would have been a headless corpse in a mass grave.

"Don't worry, you will definitely meet again." Yun Can comforted.

"Yes." Canglan nodded seriously. Yes, they would definitely meet again. The Crown Prince was so powerful, everything would be fine. His father was gone, his mother was gone, his eldest brother was gone, and his third brother was trying to kill him. He only had the second Crown Prince left. Now all he had to do was follow his master obediently and not let the second Crown Prince hold him back.
