Jiuli, you are looking for me!
205: 204.
Jiuli, you are looking for me!
“Four black-clothed people?
Have there been any black-clothed people staying here recently?” Mo Jiuli asked.
“No, after the old man disappeared, there haven’t been any black-clothed people here!
However, there is a woman who occasionally comes by at night, as if looking for something!” Yun Xia replied.
“A woman?
Let’s go!” Mo Jiuli suddenly thought of something and quietly brought Yun Xia to Mo Caiyun’s courtyard.
With a slight movement of her fingertips, some invisible powder scattered out, and moments later, the gazes of the dark guards and maids around the small courtyard became hazy.
Mo Jiuli brought Yun Xia directly to Mo Caiyun’s bedroom, allowed Yun Xia to transform into her original form and attached herself to Mo Jiuli’s hand.
With a leap, her figure arrived on the roof…
Quietly lifting a few roof tiles, she looked into the room…
“What did you say?
What happened to Jiuqi?” Mo Caiyun, who was originally drinking tea with her head lowered, raised her voice abruptly as she questioned the black-clothed person kneeling in front of her, who had just said something unclear.
“Master, Jiuqi has been affected by a strange sorcery.
At the Ninth Floor…” The black-clothed person carefully recounted Mo Jiuqi and the Crown Prince’s time on the Ninth Floor.
This black-clothed person was none other than Mo Jiuqi’s dark guard.
Having been by Mo Jiuqi’s side for many years, he was used to seeing her and Crown Prince Ouyang Luoxi’s relationship and didn’t pay it any mind when he saw Ouyang Luoxi pounce on Mo Jiuqi at the Ninth Floor…
By the time he realized something was wrong, Third Prince and his people had already arrived, leaving him no opportunity to make a move.
He could only secretly observe Mo Jiuqi and the Crown Prince.
It wasn’t until the Third Prince, following Huai Family elder Ouyang Lin’s suggestion, found a secret chamber for the Crown Prince and Mo Jiuqi, that he had the chance to knock out the nearby maids and guards.
He wanted to separate the two and take Mo Jiuqi away, but despite exhausting all his strength and trying various methods, he still failed.
Left with no other choice, he hurried back to the General’s Mansion to report to Mo Caiyun…
“When the Crown Prince and the others had an accident at the Ninth Floor, what did the Ninth Floor say after the Third Prince arrived?” Instead of being blinded by anger, Mo Caiyun carefully questioned.
“The person in charge of the Ninth Floor didn’t even show up when the Third Prince and his people arrived.
Moreover, Housekeeper Duanmu was even extorted by the Ninth Floor before he left!” The black-clothed person reported truthfully.
“Did they go anywhere else before going to the Ninth Floor?” Mo Caiyun asked.
She had some understanding of the Ninth Floor and knew that they generally wouldn’t interfere with matters unless provoked.
Therefore, the absence of the Ninth Floor employees was to be expected.
Even if it involved the royal family, the Ninth Floor wouldn’t give any face to them, which led her to believe that the poison affecting the two didn’t come from the Ninth Floor…
“Before that, Miss Jiuqi had been at home.
Later, Eldest Lady Situ Qian of the Situ’s Mansion came to cause trouble, and then the Crown Prince appeared…” The black-clothed person recounted the incident that had taken place earlier at the General’s Mansion’s entrance.
“The two women disappeared, and the Crown Prince took Miss Jiuqi to the Ninth Floor.
After that…”
“Do you recognize the two women?” Mo Caiyun asked.
“I don’t, but their strength was both at the middle-level Dark Purple stage!
Moreover, they claimed to be Lady Jiuli’s subordinates!”
“What?
Mo Jiuli!
Could that trash really not be dead?
How is that possible?” Mo Caiyun murmured in shock.
Mo Jiuli, who was on the roof, smirked when she heard this, and thought to herself: “Damn woman, you’re not dead, so why would I be dead!”
“I understand, you go back to Jiuqi first, give them this to take, and then bring Jiuqi back!
If necessary, kill Crown Prince Ouyang Luoxi!” Mo Caiyun handed over two black elixirs to the man in black clothes and said.
“Yes, master!” The man in black took the elixir, and his figure vanished in an instant.
Mo Caiyun lowered her head and fell into deep thought.
Mo Jiuli initially thought she would do something or go to that storage room mentioned by Lin Yue.
However, she didn’t do either of those and just stared blankly at the book in her hands…
“Master, the woman who went to the small courtyard is her!” Yun Xia said in her heart.
“Hmm, I understand.
Let’s leave first!” Mo Jiuli said as her figure leaped, directly leaving Mo Caiyun’s small courtyard.
As she left, some powder scattered from the sleeves of her clothes, and the unconscious dark guard, Guard, and maids gradually woke up.
Although they were somewhat puzzled by their current location, they couldn’t remember anything and didn’t pay it any mind…
“Yun Xia, are you able to control the green plants within the General’s Mansion and monitor the movements of the people inside?” Mo Jiuli suddenly asked.
“I can, Master, but I need some time!” Yun Xia said.
“Alright, go ahead!” Mo Jiuli nodded.
“Okay!” Yun Xia said, her body transforming into countless Purple Light, flying towards various locations within the General’s Mansion…
Although she was not the king among the plants, she was, after all, the Cannibal Flower Purple Emperor.
Moreover, most of the plants within the General’s Mansion didn’t even have Spiritual Intelligence and only knew fear when they saw her, so they were completely unable to resist her commands.
The very few medicinal materials that had opened their Spiritual Intelligence respected her even more upon seeing her, and were willing to obey her…
After Yun Xia left, Mo Jiuli directly found Mo Chenyun and asked him to summon Mo You.
Though Mo Chenyun didn’t know what Jiuli wanted to do, he cherished his only niece wholeheartedly and would never refuse any of her requests…
As Mo Chenyun called her, Yi Moyou instantly appeared before the two of them.
She was still wearing her red dress, and, seeing Mo Jiuli, who was also dressed in red, she smiled slightly: “Jiuli, you were looking for me!”
Perhaps it was because of the inexplicable connection between her and Mo Jiuli’s mother, or perhaps it was the love for her niece due to someone else’s influence, Yi Moyou really liked Mo Jiuli…
Mo Jiuli looked at the beautiful Yi Moyou and the handsome Third Uncle Mo Chenyun standing together, and she genuinely felt that they were a good match.
Moreover, the eyes of Yi Moyou, filled with deep affection when she looked at her uncle, couldn’t be hidden, making Mo Jiuli unable to help but want to help the girl…
However, seeing the eyes of Yi Moyou urging her not to interfere, Mo Jiuli could only sigh lightly, then smiled and said, “Mo You, I’ll call you Aunt You!
I would like to ask you for a favor.
Please help me monitor Mo Caiyun!”
“Alright, leave this matter to me!
I will promptly report her situation to Master!” Yi Moyou was delighted by Mo Jiuli’s appellation and said happily.
“Well, Aunt You, I’ll have to trouble you then!
Third Uncle, Mo Caiyun is not simple.
Be cautious and don’t act recklessly at any time!
If there’s anything you need, inform me or tell the Ancestors, and make a decision after discussing it!” Mo Jiuli looked worriedly at Mo Chenyun.
She knew very well how much her uncles cared for her mother and grandfather and was afraid that they wouldn’t be able to resist taking action when Aunt You discovered something.
She had always felt that Mo Caiyun was related to the poison in Baobao’s body.
Granny Suxi and Little Book had mentioned that the poison in Baobao’s body most likely came from another continent.
Therefore, if the poison in Baobao’s body was indeed related to Mo Caiyun, then the person behind her must not be simple…
