Baili Hongzhuang patted her hands and looked at the duo who had fainted.

They only knew some minor kung fu and had no talent for cultivation. However, they would come up with rotten ideas for Xuan Yuanhuan and as such, he had kept them by his side.

“It just so happens that someone has delivered money to me when I’m most in need!”

Baili Hongzhuang took out their money pouches with a sly smile. Looking at the gold coins contained within, it seemed like even these lackeys’ coffers were richer than hers!

She soundlessly returned to the General Estate and started rummaging through the drawers for something that she could pawn. Fortunately, she had some jewelry that should be worth a good sum of money after pawning them.

She was the eldest daughter of the General Estate and even if the general treated her badly in her daily life, these basic pieces of jewelry were something she still had at the very least.

Looking at the pieces of jewelry on the table, Baili Hongzhuang raised her chin and thought, “I still can’t gather all the required resources for my cultivation, even if I sold everything here.”

Cultivation was as good as burning money and it was difficult to become an expert without sufficient cultivation resources. Furthermore, she had to catch up to Baili Yuyan as soon as possible and there could not be any delays.

What are the other methods I can use to earn money?

Baili Hongzhuang pondered for a while. Initially, she wanted to create an elixir and sell it to earn some money. However, she could not even create a single elixir based on her current finances!

All of a sudden, her eyes brightened. “It’ll all work out if I open a clinic!”

She was confident of her skills and as long as she could open a clinic, it would surely bring in tons of money!

…

Prince Chen’s Estate.

A light wind blew past, and the bamboo leaves danced. Behind the curtain of the bamboo forest, sat a pale golden figure in front of a stone table.

There was no longer a roguish teasing smile on his unrivaled handsome face and it had been replaced with wisdom and indifference. The only unchanged thing was his aura that was of an esteemed noble.

“Heimu, have you found out that lady’s identity?”

His thin lips slightly opened and his eyes, similar to an obsidian stone, were flashing with a faint smile and hidden intentions. He had rarely seen such an interesting young lady.

“Lord, that young lady’s identity is somewhat special.” Heimu’s expression was slightly strange. In fact, he also found it strange when he found out the identity of Baili Hongzhuang.

His long eyebrows moved and Di Beichen faintly smiled. “How special is it?”

“She’s the eldest daughter of the General’s Estate, Baili Hongzhuang!” Heimu answered truthfully.

“Hong Zhuang, Baili Hongzhuang.” Di Beichen repeated these two names and the curvature of his lips became wider. “It’s no wonder Xuan Yuanhuan’s earlier expression was rather strange when he saw Baili Hongzhuang.”

“How are the men that Xuan Yuanhuan sent to shadow Baili Hongzhuang?”

“Baili Hongzhuang took their money pouches after knocking them unconscious. Moreover… she wrote several words on their backs.”

Looking back on what Baili Hongzhuang had done, Heimu could not help but reveal a smile.

“What words did she write?” Di Beichen was full of interest. From the moment he saw the traces of cunningness in her eyes, he knew that she was a quirky lady!

“Lord Jing’s buttocks are so white! His Royal Highness’s buttocks are even whiter!”

“Pft!”

Di Beichen, who had just taken a sip of water, nearly spat it out when he heard the information. That woman was really different from everyone else!

Heimu’s eyes creased with a smile. His poised little master had rarely revealed such expressions and it seems like Baili Hongzhuang was a living clown!

“Lord, the prince has been constantly causing trouble for you. Should we take action?”

Heimu’s expression turned solemn. Their lord was an esteemed noble and yet, he was being oppressed by a mere prince. They could not take it lying down any longer!
