Chapter 797 -797: Di Yelei鈥檚 Thunderous Fury! (4)
Standing beside Madam Gan Senior was the young man who was Little Spring鈥檚 master, and also Gan Family鈥檚 legitimate grandson, Gan Zhengchu.
Gan Zhengchu laughed carelessly, admitting that he was the one who had brought Madam Gan Senior here, and he couldn鈥檛 deny it.
鈥淟ook at you, even now you鈥檙e still so ignorant! Just think about how obedient your half-sister Zhi Lan is, not like you at all! Sigh!鈥
Madam Gan Senior couldn鈥檛 help but shake her head: 鈥淒o you think a smart man like Commander Yang wouldn鈥檛 notice the strangeness of this room? If I didn鈥檛 come tonight, do you think you could suppress him with your means? You should learn some more tricks in the future, so you won鈥檛 be too late to learn when you get married.鈥
Gan Miaoruo was moving the bed, revealing the mechanism inside. As the sound of gears turning, the tunnel was revealed, and so was Liu Sisi, who had been waiting here for a long time.
Hearing this, she turned her head and yelled at Madam Gan Senior!
...
鈥淚 know! I know you all think I鈥檓 not as good as that Gan Zhi Lan! Her sweet mouth and connection to Seventh Prince make her better than me in everything! If that鈥檚 the case, why don鈥檛 you adopt her into my mother鈥檚 name and make her happy!鈥
Just appearing, Liu Sisi was a little awkward, standing there in a dilemma, and quickly bowed to Madam Gan Senior.
鈥淪isi has seen grandmother!鈥
Madam Gan Senior hurriedly came forward to help her up: 鈥淣o, no, no! Absolutely not. Silly child! Since ancient times, etiquette cannot be abolished! You are now a princess of a country, calling me grandmother would be too improper. Just call me Madam Gan Senior.鈥
Liu Sisi did not insist, and called out again according to her words: 鈥淢adam Gan Senior.鈥
鈥淕ood, good child. This is my legitimate grandson Gan Zhengchu, you two should meet, he is the one who told me that something happened here.鈥
潣梆潣凁潟橉潡?co
Liu Sisi and Gan Zhengchu exchanged greetings once more.
鈥淭he three children are all asleep now, and can鈥檛 be woken up no matter how they are called.鈥
鈥淚t鈥檚 only natural that they鈥檙e tired after being frightened all day yesterday at such a young age, and now they鈥檙e sleeping.鈥
Madam Gan Senior smiled with her eyes narrowed: 鈥淵ou can stay here temporarily, as long as you don鈥檛 leave this place for one day, that Commander Yang can鈥檛 do anything to you.鈥
As for this, Liu Sisi didn鈥檛 quite agree, but she wouldn鈥檛 argue at this moment.
鈥淭hank you, Madam Gan Senior.鈥
Outside, the flames soared and the fighting continued, while inside the attic, the three talked and laughed. Only Gan Miaoruo was wiping her tears with a sad face, obviously not having recovered from the shock just now.
Liu Sisi listened for a moment and was curious about Madam Gan Senior鈥檚 calmness.
鈥淢adam Gan Senior, the fire outside seems to be getting bigger and bigger, I don鈥檛 know if it will spread here鈥︹€
鈥淚t鈥檚 alright.鈥

Madam Gan Senior waved her hand: 鈥淚 arranged for someone to set this fire. Since Yang Yikun already knew you were here, it would turn into you being in the light and him in the dark. I set this fire to bring everything to light. Yang Yikun, even if he doesn鈥檛 respect the monk, won鈥檛 dare to act rashly.鈥
鈥淲hy wouldn鈥檛 he dare? Chasing us down with a large number of Imperial Guards was not a joke.鈥
Even now, Liu Sisi was still frightened when she thought of last night鈥檚 escape.
鈥淭hat was then, and this is now.鈥
Madam Gan Senior didn鈥檛 spare any effort to explain: 鈥淎lthough Yang Yikun is a scoundrel, he really cares about Ruo Ruo. If you appear somewhere else, it would be fine. But if you appear here and he doesn鈥檛 protect Ruo Ruo, I鈥檓 afraid it鈥檒l be hard for him to explain to Empress. Especially since it鈥檚 the early morning session now, and he鈥檚 busy going back to the palace to argue, there鈥檚 no time to stay here.鈥
Madam Gan Senior thought for a moment and added: 鈥淎t the beginning, when Ruo Ruo and Yang Yikun got engaged, Empress was against it.鈥
There鈥檚 a lot of meaning in these words!
Yang Yikun likes Ruo Ruo and wants to protect her, so naturally he cannot let Empress know that Ruo Ruo was involved as well.
Liu Sisi looked at Ruo Ruo beside her and suddenly thought that it wouldn鈥檛 be so bad for Ruo Ruo to marry Yang Yikun. At least he really loved her.
As everyone was talking, the intense fighting sounds were getting closer and closer.
Di Yelei was extremely anxious; it seemed like the imperial guards could never be completely defeated, as wave after wave kept coming without end. Although their group was not the only one fighting the guards, two other groups were also engaging them simultaneously; he still felt extremely anxious. If they couldn鈥檛 break out before daybreak, they would be trapped inside.
鈥淪isi! Sisi!鈥
Unable to control himself, he suddenly shouted several times.
鈥淪isi! Sisi!鈥
A dream-like voice came from where Liu Sisi was. How could it be him? How could it be his voice?
Gan Miaoruo and Madam Gan Senior both froze!
鈥淚s it him? Wasn鈥檛 he still at the border? How could he鈥︹€ appear here? Appear at this place!
It was him! He had come!
Liu Sisi felt as if her blood was boiling!
She rushed out of the loft, waving her hand in the direction of Di Yelei鈥檚 voice: 鈥淗ere! I鈥檓 here!鈥
鈥淏e careful!鈥
Accompanied by a low shout, Liu Sisi was suddenly pulled to the ground.
Raising her head, she saw Gan Zhengchu pressing down on her, his face full of vigilance as he looked around. Who would have thought that someone as gentle and delicate as young master Gan Zhengchu was actually a martial artist!
鈥淏e careful! Someone is shooting a cold arrow! Let鈥檚 go in right away.鈥
He grabbed Liu Sisi and rolled on the ground with her. They rolled directly into the loft, and the door closed with a bang.
鈥淲hat鈥檚 going on?鈥
The wrathful voice of Madam Gan Senior rang out.
鈥淪omeone released a cold arrow, nearly hitting Princess Ruyu. Everyone, keep quiet and find cover.鈥
As Gan Zhengchu spoke, he raised his hand and extinguished the candles in the room. The room instantly went dark.
鈥淣o! Ye Lei is outside, and he has come for me! I have to go down!鈥
Although Liu Sisi didn鈥檛 understand how Di Yelei had managed to appear there, she knew that his presence must have been extraordinary.
鈥淚t鈥檚 too chaotic outside; how can you go down?鈥 Gan Zhengchu clearly disagreed.
鈥淚 have to! He is Ruyu鈥檚 husband and my children鈥檚 father! If I don鈥檛 go down, this battle won鈥檛 end. By then, more and more imperial guards will come. At that time, it鈥檒l be too late to leave, and the entire Gan family will be implicated!鈥
Liu Sisi spoke earnestly.
Her words were not exaggerated, and everyone present understood the situation.
鈥淔ine! Zhengchu, escort Princess Ruyu!鈥 Madam Gan Senior finally spoke.
鈥淵es, Grandmother!鈥
Gan Zhengchu picked up the two children who were still asleep and led Liu Sisi, who was holding Niuniu, to descend from the attic by the side door.
At the moment, the Gan Mansion was engulfed in flames. The raging fire from the three adjacent pavilions of Xihe Pavilion illuminated the courtyard with flickering light and dark shades.
