Chapter 501: Chapter 468, Nemesis_1
“Where’s my fourth brother, why haven’t I seen him?”
Xiao Yeyang carefully wrapped up the wound, his head not lifting: “There’s a mechanism in the stone cave, Wen Kai was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and now he’s guarding the other side of the valley.”
Upon hearing this, Daohua’s expression changed and she asked anxiously, “Is his injury serious?”
Xiao Yeyang: “Don’t move around.” He adjusted Daohua’s arm back into place before saying, “He dodged quickly, so it’s nothing serious. Don’t worry too much, your fourth brother is still too impulsive when facing problems. It’s good for him to learn a lesson from this.”
Daohua, still worried, confirmed: “Are you sure he’s really okay?”
Xiao Yeyang nodded: “He’s really okay, the arrow didn’t fully penetrate the flesh, but he’ll still suffer for a few days.”
...
Daohua fell silent for a moment: “Letting the fourth brother suffer a bit is good; it’ll stop him from always acting so rashly.”
Xiao Yeyang agreed wholeheartedly, then smiled and said, “Alright, the bandaging is done!”
Daohua glanced at the bandage and nodded in approval: “Not bad work.”
Xiao Yeyang carefully lowered Daohua’s sleeve, saying casually, “Practice makes perfect.” Then, he instructed, “Be careful during this time, don’t touch the wound, and since there’s nothing here, we’ll have to make do with what we have. You’ll just have to bear with it for a while.”
Daohua was indifferent: “I’m not so delicate. Before you arrived, I was getting by just fine.”
At these words, Xiao Yeyang felt uneasy, taking Daohua’s hand he said, “It’s my fault for not locating you sooner, making you suffer like this.”
Daohua quickly said, “I’m already very satisfied that you found me this fast. I thought I was going to have to face the assassins guarding the exit.”

As Xiao Yeyang remembered the scene at the Stone Tomb, he couldn’t help but feel a chill, knowing how clever Daohua was, but in front of those blood-thirsty assassins, she was still too vulnerable. If not careful, she could have lost her life.
“Daohua, if you encounter such danger again, don’t charge in by yourself. Remember, all you need to do is protect yourself well and wait for me to come save you. Don’t do anything that might harm yourself.”
She wouldn’t pin her hopes on someone else!
Seeing Xiao Yeyang’s serious and earnest face, Daohua did not dare to say this out loud and instead vaguely replied, “Oh, I’ll act according to the situation, and besides, encountering such an event once is unlucky enough, it won’t happen a second time.”
Xiao Yeyang gave her a helpless look, knowing this one wouldn’t just obediently listen. He thought about the Hidden Guard he had assigned to her, who not only lost track of their charge but also got injured while saving someone else, and he couldn’t help but let out a cold snort.
“The Hidden Guard I assigned to you doesn’t seem to understand their duty. When we get back, I will replace him with another.”
Daohua: “Is that necessary? I can’t blame him for being captured. After all, we were bound in the changing room. He couldn’t have kept his eyes on us all the time, right?” After saying that, she couldn’t help covering her mouth and yawning.
Xiao Yeyang saw her looking tired and did not say more.
Daohua: “I want to lie down for a while, you go and tend to your matters.”
Xiao Yeyang, still concerned, said: “Can you manage alone, or should I stay with you?”
Daohua shook her head: “No need, I’m not so fragile!”
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: “Then, alright, I’ll leave Dexi outside the door, call him if you need anything.”
Daohua nodded.
After seeing Daohua yawn again, Xiao Yeyang then turned and left the room, telling Dexi who stood outside, “Don’t go anywhere tonight, just stay here. If Daohua needs anything, inform me immediately.”
Dexi nodded: “This servant understands.”
Xiao Yeyang looked back at the room, and only after there was no more movement inside and he knew Daohua had gone to sleep, did he leave the courtyard to head over to the arsenal.
He had to ascertain the situation at the arsenal and then write a letter to his Imperial Uncle.
…
Not all the assassins had been killed, many had been captured. After interrogations that lasted several hours through the night, along with testimonials from the villagers, Xiao Yeyang roughly understood the situation involving Sishan Village and the arsenal.
“This is one of Prince’s secret arsenals, the man in charge here is the Prince Residence’s Left Chief Secretary Xu Kezheng and the strategist Fan Kun.”
“Xu Kezheng has been captured, but Fan Kun has not been found yet.”
“Because of the secrecy of the place, the weapons forged here over the years haven’t been transported out.”
“There’s a large number of weapons here; if taken out and sent to the northern battlefield, they would alleviate the urgent need of our soldiers and definitely help Daxia drive out the Tartars.”
