Quickly wear the cannon fodder, he made this short-lived script

After saying that, Shen Mo left without staying for long.

His action made Mo Ci's hand holding the paper tighten slightly. To be honest, apart from Shen Mo's occasional bad taste that made him a little uncomfortable, most of the time, he made him feel comfortable.

At least, Mo Ci can be sure that Shen Mo is a very good friend, but Mo Ci himself cannot be too hasty to define Shen Mo's existence.

He still needs to wait and have more contact with her.

After Shen Mo left for a while, Mo Ci began to contact his subordinates.

Then he got the result of the Huguo Temple incident from his subordinates. A headless corpse was found in the little monk's room in Huguo Temple, and all the evidence pointed to the little monk.

The evidence is almost conclusive, and the Huguo Temple cannot produce any evidence to prove the little monk's innocence, but it still wants to protect the little monk. As a result, won't it annoy those people in the underworld?

Mo Ci chose to kill Wang Chi and use Wang Chi to frame others, naturally because he understood Wang Chi's value best.

Wang Chi’s death was of course a big deal for those who were on good terms with him. Now that the “murderer” has been found, and the “murderer” still refuses to admit it, it would be strange if they could calm down!

So they started fighting quickly. Just in case, when they put Wang Chi's body into the little monk's room, Mo Ci retaliated by giving the little monk a power-dispersing powder.

The effect of the medicine was also increased to ensure that the little monk would become a disabled person if he didn't die.

According to the description of his men, the situation was somewhat chaotic, but the little monk was indeed attacked by others and vomited blood.

But because he was protected by the monks from Huguo Temple, he was able to escape and did not die on the spot.

The reason why Mo Ci's men came so late was because they followed the little monk all the way to an official's home and witnessed with their own eyes that the little monk became the frail and sickly son of that official.

After his subordinates noted down the official's residence, they came to look for Mo Ci.

After hearing these words, Mo Ci did not feel disappointed. Instead, he realized that this little monk had a close connection with the person behind Ye Zhiruan who really controlled everything.

So, he gave the things Shen Mo gave him to that subordinate and asked him to investigate Lin Lan, and at the same time, asked him to check the relationship of the little monk.

Later in the evening, Mo Ci welcomed another group of his men. This time, they were going to Cangjian Villa and were responsible for contacting Hall Master Lei.

As Mo Ci expected, the leader of the Lei Hall helped him that day, which meant that he did not turn against Ye Zhiruan.

And from Ye Yunyi's memory, we can know that this Master Lei has always put the owner of the manor, Ye Xiao, first.

And Ye Yunyi, as the heir personally acknowledged by Ye Xiao, naturally received special treatment from Master Lei.

As for Ye Zhiruan, in the eyes of Hall Master Lei, she is the lady of Cangjian Villa and the daughter of the owner, but she will definitely not be the owner who will lead Cangjian Villa to glory.

Therefore, when Ye Zhiruan tried to win him over, he never wavered, but stood firmly on the side that was good for Cangjian Villa.

Ye Zhiruan was not able to win over Master Lei, and he was angry and even thought about dismissing him from his post.

However, the three hall masters of Cangjian Villa are responsible for different things, and only the owner of the villa can dismiss them.

Of course, the title of owner of the manor does not mean that anyone can proclaim himself the owner. One needs to have the seal of the owner.

As for the location of the manor owner's seal, no one except Ye Yunyi and Ye Xiao knew where it was.

Mo Ci knew it, but he couldn't get it for the time being, so he could only contact Master Lei first, but he couldn't mobilize Master Lei and the forces under him.

However, just contacting and getting some information from Master Lei is enough.

As the leader of the Lei Hall who had been won over by Ye Zhiruan, he naturally knew a lot. That was why Mo Ci knew that the confidence these people had in dealing with Ye Yunyi was because they had defected to the imperial court.

Well, strictly speaking, it cannot be said that he surrendered to the court, but rather to a certain prince.

Or the current third prince, Xiao Ran.

Ye Zhiruan's lover Cheng Jing is Xiao Ran's strategist, and it was Cheng Jing who pulled the strings that connected Cangjian Villa and the third prince Xiao Ran.

As for the other two hall masters who defected to Ye Zhiruan, they also seemed to think that defecting to the court was the right thing to do.

After all, the imperial court seemed to have the idea of rectifying the forces of the underworld, but it had not yet been implemented on a large scale.

However, Mo Ci still couldn't understand. With the strength of Cangjian Villa, wouldn't it be too... casual to just surrender to them so spinelessly?

In addition to this, Mo Ci also got news about Ye Yunyi's adoptive father, Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao has been in poor health ever since he fell ill. He cannot stand the wind and cannot go out.

As a result, he still knew nothing about what happened between Ye Yunyi and Ye Zhiruan, and was just being served in his room.

This news is still good for Mo Ci.

At least, Ye Zhiruan was not like the people in the storybooks Shen Mo read, who were so obsessed with love that they even ignored their own parents.

After confirming that Ye Xiao was not in danger, Mo Ci began to think about when to return to Cangjian Villa.

Firstly, take the owner's seal away to prevent Ye Zhiruan from finding it and doing something irreversible.

Secondly, with the seal of the manor owner, Mo Ci can also order Master Lei to do things for him, and he doesn't have to be so slow because of the small number of people.

I kept thinking about this until it got dark.

Mo Ci simply sat cross-legged and practiced, temporarily suppressing these thoughts. However, he had only been practicing for a while when he heard a familiar bell sound. Without waiting for Shen Mo to knock on the door, Mo Ci spontaneously opened the door.
