Chapter 638: The Eighth Prince Chopped the Epiphyllum!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The old eunuch shouted and hurriedly squatted down. He accidentally fell to the ground!
The bright blade brushed past his head.
In an instant, the eunuch hat he was wearing was cut off!
The old eunuch was still in a state of shock and sat up with his hair down.
Suddenly, a delicate voice called out, “Eunuch uncle, be careful! Lower your head quickly!”
The old eunuch couldn’t be bothered to see who was speaking and quickly pounced to the ground.
The long saber that had flown over just now swayed over again!
It turned out that there was a white cotton thread tied to the hilt of the saber hanging above the thick tree.
The blade was sharp and it sc.r.a.ped past the eunuch’s head again.
In the end, when it lost its inertia, the long saber slowly lowered. Therefore, it directly knocked down the tallest thousand-gold Epiphyllum.
The sharp edge of the long saber finally hung above the old eunuch’s head.
Gu Zilan stood up and immediately stomped his feet. “It’s over, it’s over. The location was calculated accurately, but I messed things up!”
Wanyin quickly carried Gu Nuo’er out of the bush.
The child walked towards the old eunuch and reached out her small hands to help him up.
Wanyin quickly and carefully removed the long saber. She untied the rope at the side and placed it on the ground.
The old eunuch’s bones were hurting from the fall!
“Oh my, my old waist…” He held onto his lower back and stood up shakily.
“Thank you, Your Highness.”
However, in the blink of an eye, he saw the epiphyllum that had been chopped off. The purple-red petals scattered all over the ground.
The old eunuch’s eyes immediately widened as if he couldn’t breathe. He cried and slapped his knees crazily. “This thousand-gold first-grade Flaming Epiphyllum is gone just like that!”
His Majesty had asked them to be in charge of the cultivation so that it could be gifted to the n.o.ble consort.
It had been raised for more than a year and was about to bloom after gathering the efforts of many gardeners. Why did it have to be destroyed at this moment?!
The old eunuch couldn’t help but cry bitterly and mutter, “It’s over, it’s all over!”
Gu Zilan walked up to him, feeling very apologetic.
“So you’re the gardener in charge of the imperial abode. I didn’t know. Just now, I saw you wandering around the epiphyllum. When I heard you say that you were going to take a shovel, I thought you were going to steal it.”
The old eunuch pointed at the small shovel at his waist and said with tears in his eyes, “This old servant wants to loosen the soil for it!”
Gu Nuo’er opened her mouth. “Oh-
Her eighth brother had done something wrong.
Not only did this mechanism fail to catch the thief who stole the flower, but it also destroyed the epiphyllum.
Gu Zilan knew that he was in the wrong and sighed. “I was in the wrong! Eunuch, don’t worry. I’ll apologize to Father and Mother Qiao later. I caused this epiphyllum to be gone. I won’t let you guys bear the blame!” After saying that, he walked towards n.o.ble Consort Qiao’s palace.
Gu Nuo’er blinked. “Hey- Eighth Brother!”
The child called out to him softly.
Gu Zilan turned around. “Sister, you don’t have to worry about me, let alone plead for leniency for me. I’ll take responsibility for my own actions. I, Gu Zilan, am definitely not someone who will s.h.i.+rk responsibility!”
Gu Nuo’er waved her small hand. “No, Eighth Brother, I have a way to get the best of both worlds. Not only will I not let this epiphyllum go to waste, but I can also let you avoid punishment. Do you want to hear it?”
Gu Zilan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
The child immediately smiled sweetly, her gaze lively and revealing a hint of craftiness.
“I can tell you, but I have a condition.”
“What condition?”
“You have to teach me one simplest mechanism technique. We’re going to hunt tomorrow.. It won’t be embarra.s.sing for me if I can get some rabbits and sparrows!”
