Chapter 602 The Imperial Edict
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan got into the carriage. Liu Yuanyuan turned into a thumb-thick snake and slept in Liu Sanniang’s sleeve while Hu Yu turned into a silver fox and nestled by Liu Sanniang’s feet.
Due to the imperial edict, they did not stop much on the way. At noon on the sixth day of the new year, they arrived in the capital.
Su Yanyu got out of the carriage outside the Marquis Mansion. He smiled and said, “Shifu, if there’s anything you need, just tell me. Go and rest first. I’ll get someone to send food over for you later.”
Su Yanyu, then, looked at Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu. “Miss Yuanyuan, Miss Hu Yu, is there anything you want to eat? If not, I’ll make the arrangements.”
Liu Yuanyuan said calmly, “I’m not picky.”
Hu Yu smiled. “Then, I won’t stand on ceremony. I want Eight Treasure Chicken, White Cut Chicken, Braised Chicken…”
Su Yanyu immediately raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead. “Miss Hu Yu, time is tight. The kitchen can’t make so many dishes…”
Hu Yu snorted. “If not, then why did you ask me?”
Hu Yu turned around and ignored Su Yanyu.
Liu Sanniang smiled and said to Su Yanyu, “Lord Su, go back. Don’t mind her.”
Su Yanyu nodded. “Alright… Take care, Shifu.”
Hu Yu liked to eat chicken. Although he could not make so many kinds of chicken at this time, he could instruct the kitchen to send them over another day.
Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan returned to their house.
Hu Yu walked around with Liu Yuanyuan. “Venerable, go and rest. Liu Yuanyuan and I will clean it up and find a place to stay for ourselves.”

Liu Sanniang nodded. “Sure, go ahead. We’ll enter the palace tonight.”
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan went to clean the house.
Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan returned to their rooms.
Liu Sanniang took out a box. There were already four black beads inside.
They belonged to Yuan Hui, Hui Zhen, Huang Mengqing, and Old Madam Su. They carried thick, dark evil and should one day be returned to the real owner.
Liu Sanniang put away the box and lay on the bed to rest. The emperor did not mention the reason explicitly in the imperial edict. He only said that he had discovered something strange and was waiting for her to come back to investigate the case.
There was a source of evil in the palace, and Liu Sanniang wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.
She had been on the carriage for a few days and was not feeling well. With Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan cleaning up the house, she was very relieved, so she quickly fell asleep.
Liu Sanniang was asleep, but she quickly came awake. Her eyes were still closed though. She felt a pair of eyes looking at her in the dark. She released her power to sense her surroundings. Outside the house, Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu were cleaning. They didn’t sense anything unusual.
It was also quiet outside the courtyard, but she could still feel the feeling of being stared at.
She frowned and opened her eyes to look around the room. Soon, the feeling of being stared at disappeared.
However, what she felt just now was definitely not a figment of her imagination.
She opened the door and went out. Liu Yuanyuan chose a spot on the beam of the house to stay while Hu Yu found an inconspicuous corner. There was a lawn there that Hu Yu liked very much. She and General Black each occupied a spot.
Seeing Liu Sanniang come out, the two of them came over. “Venerable, why are you up? You can’t sleep?”
Liu Sanniang nodded.
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan thought for a moment and blew at Liu Sanniang. “Venerable, you must be travel-worn and not feeling well after such a long journey. How do you feel now?”
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan could both ward off illnesses. They unanimously thought that Liu Sanniang might be about to fall sick. After warding off the illness, she would be able to sleep well.
Liu Sanniang did not see anything unusual and returned to her room to sleep.
Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu were relieved. Liu Sanniang treated them well, so they naturally treated her well.
Sometimes, Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan disliked each other, but they were on the same page when it came to Liu Sanniang.
Seeing that Liu Sanniang had gone into the house to sleep, they went to familiarize themselves with the territory.
When they arrived at a new territory, they had to familiarize themselves with the surroundings and see if there were any other house spirits.
When Su Yanyu returned to the Marquis mansion, he immediately went to see Marquis Su and Mrs. Su. He knelt down and kowtowed three times. “Father, Mother, I’m unfilial. Please punish me.”
Marquis Su’s face was extremely dark.
Tears welled up in Mrs. Su’s eyes. “Yanyu, you’ve grown up.”
Su Yanyu was no longer a playboy but a man with a purpose. He had finally succeeded in becoming Liu Sanniang’s disciple.
Mrs. Su helped Su Yanyu up. “You’ve been away from home for a long time. With your habit of spending money, I was afraid that you’ve long run out of money. I was also very surprised that even without money, you didn’t return home.”
Mrs. Su and Marquis Su thought that Su Yanyu would come back when he ran out of money, but they did not expect him to learn to be frugal.
After the flood in Jiangzhou ended, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince both made a contribution. Mrs. Su asked someone to ask the Crown Prince and the Third Prince about Su Yanyu’s whereabouts, but the Crown Prince said that he didn’t know. The Third Prince specially asked his trusted aide to go to the Marquis mansion to tell Mrs. Su not to worry and that Su Yanyu followed Liu Sanniang back to Yong County.
Now that Su Yanyu was back, Mrs. Su was relieved. That arrogant and unruly son had finally been reborn and became a determined man.
Su Yanyu helped Mrs. Su sit down. He did not tell Mrs. Su that he was robbed as soon as he arrived in Jiangzhou and almost got married to a fox. He was no longer the Su Yanyu of the past.
Marquis Su said, “You’ve become a disciple, right? What did Miss Liu teach you?”
Su Yanyu smiled. “Refining poison.”
Mrs. Su and Marquis Su’s expressions changed. Marquis Su tried his best to control the shock on his face. “Are you serious? Is she just playing with you?”
