Chapter 418
In the upper room of the inn, Yin Wuyan looked at the animated young girl, his icy phoenix eyes softening. He reached out and affectionately patted her head.
"They knew better than to cause trouble when they saw the token of the Forbidden Dragon Guard. Otherwise, I would have taken out the dragon pendant you gave me, that would have scared them to death!" Zhan Feiyu tilted her chin proudly, her delicate face beaming with triumph. "No schemes or stratagems are useful."
While satisfied with the girl's "bullying through authority," Yin Wuyan still said gravely, "Aren't you worried they'll be driven to desperation?"
"What am I afraid of?" Zhan Feiyu's clear voice rose as she grinned at Yin Wuyan. "I'm not stupid. Governor Yuan is upstairs, and Ah Sheng said the Minhe Guards are our people. Never mind the Jin family, even if all those tails from Suzhou Prefecture came after me, I wouldn't be afraid!"
In the eyes of many, Zhan Feiyu was not a threat. What they feared was the scholar Gu and the Forbidden Dragon Guard behind her, which was why they could only follow her all the way to Minhe Prefecture and dared not directly snatch the roster.
As for the local power, the Jin family of Minhe Prefecture, while they might dare to kill Governor Yuan's brother and sister-in-law, they absolutely would not dare to provoke the all-pervasive Forbidden Dragon Guard. Especially if the Jin family had secret dealings with the barbarians, they would be even more hesitant to make any rash moves.
"You did well," Yin Wuyan praised in a deep voice.
Zhan Feiyu became even more pleased. If she had a tail, it would probably be wagging right now.
