The Princess Agents Want a Divorce
Chapter 116 The Spy of the Prince's Mansion
After planning and scheming for so long, was it all just to let you suffer and die after all these years? Could it be that simple? He could have simply sent someone to kill you while you were defenseless. There must be another purpose behind all this elaborate scheme!
This tactic feels like something a woman would do in a despicable way! Do you have any suspects?
Jun Moli shook his head. There wasn't one yet. There were only one or two people who had a grudge against his mother, and he knew their abilities very well. It couldn't be them. Then who could it be? Who had such a deep hatred for him? Those noble ladies who had princes all entered the palace after he was ten years old and gave birth to imperial heirs. It wasn't them either!
No rush, as long as there are clues, one or two things will eventually come out!
Jun Moli, I heard from Chi Hun that you locked Gongsun Ruier in the dungeon? Did you find out anything?
The problem with her blood is that she ingested my blood, which is very strange. If she isn't the one behind it all, then there must be someone behind her manipulating everything!
Yes! That's what I think too. I hope to find a clue from her!
Okay! Let's go outside and wait then!
When the door opened, Chi Hun, who was guarding outside, thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. To his surprise, he saw the prince standing smartly behind Miss Gu!
Your Highness? You're having a final burst of energy before death?
Jun Moli... Get lost. Are you itching for a beating if fifty lashes aren't enough?
Your Highness, are you really healed? That's wonderful! Chi Hun was so excited he almost cried. He almost, almost lost his master!
Hmm! Don't block the way. The dungeon is loose on the outside but tight on the inside. Do you understand what to do? Report any disturbance to me immediately!
Okay, I understand! Where are you going?
Take Xi'er to the treasure vault!
Holding Gu Lingxi's hand, the two arrived at the storeroom of the Li Prince's mansion!
Xi'er, there are many jades here. Go and see if there's anything that will help your little fox. Take them all! If that's not enough, I'll have someone go outside and search for more for you!
Its name is Ahri!
Jun Moli... I don't want to call her that.
Gu Lingxi smiled and shook her head, not bothering to be polite with him! The storeroom of the Prince Li's mansion was comparable to the treasure pavilion of the imperial palace, and could only be described as magnificent, dazzling with jewels, and overflowing with treasures!
Wow! So many treasures!
Okay! Take everything you like, Xi'er, it's all yours! There are also a few secret rooms, I'll take you there later!
Looking at Gu Lingxi's greedy expression, Jun Moli looked at her with doting eyes. He finally understood why this girl was so greedy. She had such a money-devouring beast. If she wasn't greedy, she really couldn't keep it alive!
It seems he's really gone to great lengths to save this girl! I wonder if his worldly possessions can make up for it! Where can he find those spirit stones that contain spiritual power?
Gu Lingxi glanced around and realized that there were very few things with spiritual energy here. She decided to let Ah Li out to choose for herself!
Ahri is truly a non-picky little thing. She ate whatever she liked with gusto, making a loud, satisfying noise! Gu Lingxi felt a chill run down her spine. These exquisite things were being devoured by Ahri like that—it was such a waste! The key point was that eating them wouldn't be of much use to him in repairing his space! Only spirit stones and magical artifacts would be of any use!
It wasn't a complete loss; several jade pendants even contained a faint spiritual energy, equivalent to low-grade spirit stones! Ahri ate with great relish! She only returned to her space to digest after her belly was full!
A few days later, Crimson Soul sent word.
As you predicted, Your Highness, someone in the Prince's mansion has indeed made a move!
Who? Jun Moli's face was icy cold. His palace was practically impregnable; it was impossible for spies to infiltrate! Yet now, someone had betrayed him!
It is Zhao Tiezhu from the kitchen. He is Zhao Mama's son, so he can be considered a servant born into the household. Zhao Mama and Wang Mama were the most capable elders in your mother's service. After the separation of the mansions, Wang Mama followed the princess, while Zhao Mama stayed with you, Your Highness, to manage the affairs of the mansion's backyard!
Her son, Zhao Tiezhu, was usually an honest and simple man. That day, when he went to the dungeon to deliver food as usual, he brought several jugs of good wine for An San and the others! The three of them were quick-witted, so they played along and drank the wine! Zhao Tiezhu then took the opportunity to say that he could help them deliver food to the prisoners!
An San said that Zhao Tiezhu spent the longest time at the place where Gongsun Ruier was being held!
They didn't dare to alert him, so they came to report to me! I had people keep an eye on that boy for the past few days, but I didn't find out that he had made contact with anyone or anything. He just stayed obediently in the Prince's mansion! During this time, only the purchasing maid and Granny Zhao left the mansion!
My men investigated, and the woman who handled the purchasing was no stranger to anyone; she's just someone who regularly delivers vegetables to the Prince's residence! Granny Zhao went to the Princess's residence to see Granny Wang, which is also unremarkable! These two are originally the Empress's confidantes, so it's not strange that they meet frequently! Your Highness, what do you think we should do next?
Keep an eye on them, don't let anyone escape! This matter isn't urgent for now, we'll deal with it after my wedding to Xi'er! Once my poison is cured, I'll slowly settle things with that woman!
In the dark and damp dungeon, Jun Ningshuang sat there in a daze, her hair disheveled and her clothes in disarray!
She had recovered from her hysteria a few days ago. These past few days, she felt that her period had been late, and she might be pregnant with Li-gege's child! She couldn't act recklessly anymore; she needed to quietly rest and prepare for her pregnancy. After Li-gege's wedding, her mother would come to rescue her!
That day, she hadn't even had a chance to explain to Brother Li that she was Jun Ningshuang and not that bitch before she was locked up here. He believed that as long as she explained clearly, Brother Li would believe her and release her!
Her mother was so worried about her that she even sent someone to give her a drug to make her mute, saying it was to prevent her from ruining her plans, fearing that if she exposed her identity, she would attract Brother Li's attention to the Princess's residence, which would be troublesome! Her mother said she would come to rescue her and give her the antidote after Brother Li's wedding!
To be with Brother Li and to give birth to his child, she was willing to wait and endure! The grievances and beatings she suffered these past few days would be repaid tenfold when she regained her identity. She would personally cripple those guards!
The closer the wedding day got, the more uneasy Gu Lingxi felt! Had she developed pre-wedding jitters? She felt so nervous, scared, yet also excited and expectant! It was so contradictory!
Recently, her mother has been keeping her confined to the manor, not allowing her to go anywhere, saying it's to teach her etiquette and things she needs to know for her wedding! Gu Lingxi... despite being a modern soul, being personally instructed by several unfamiliar old women on the specifics of how to serve her husband on her wedding night made her feel very embarrassed! In the end, she had to reassure herself several times before she could barely listen to the old women's instruction!
