The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Your Highness! Your subordinate has confirmed that the Golden Jade Blood Toad is located in the Treasure Pavilion of the Imperial Palace! Seeing that His Highness was in a good mood, Chi Hun quickly reported the findings he had made over the past few days!

Oh? Is that true?

The Golden Jade Blood Toad was originally in the possession of Xiao Yu, the regent of the Northern You Kingdom. Half a year ago, his queen was infected with a strange poison! The antidote for this poison required a highly yang substance as a medicinal guide. After learning that there was a Fire Lotus Seed in the palace, she brought countless treasures to beg for it, and the Golden Jade Blood Toad was one of them!

That's good, it saves me the trouble! I'll handle this myself, you don't need to arrange anyone!

"Yes, sir!" Chi Hun knew his group's capabilities; the chances of them safely bringing the item out without alerting the guards were slim. So he remained silent.

Jun Moli's eyes were deep and unfathomable. To remove the Gu poison from his body, he had to find the person who had cast the Gu on him! This person was hiding too well, and hadn't made a move yet! The only way now was to take the initiative and find the person who had cast the Gu!

"It's been so long, not a single sound has been heard! If the person who cast this curse doesn't have ulterior motives, then they must want to kill you! We don't have much time left; only by finding the person who cast the curse as soon as possible can we find an antidote!" Xiao Mubai shook his head helplessly.

The Golden Jade Blood Toad is currently the only thing that can help us find this person quickly! Simply drip the blood of the person who cast the curse and your own blood onto the Golden Jade Blood Toad. If they match, the toad will emit a greenish-jade luster! If not, it will be a dull, lifeless gold! Your Highness, you must hurry!

"Yes!" Jun Moli knew her time was limited, and nodded emphatically. Next month was the Emperor's 60th birthday! Envoys from various countries would come to offer their congratulations! There would be many people and things would be chaotic, but that would also make things easier!

As they were talking, Old Master Qin rushed in to report, "Master, Young Master Xiling has arrived! He's downstairs looking around! Look!"

Jun Moli gave Chi Hun and Xiao Mubai a wink, and the two understood immediately, disappearing around the corner outside the private room in the blink of an eye!

Gu Lingxi walked around, observing everything. It seemed Old Qin's execution was quite good! The basic renovations were almost complete, with each VIP room boasting a unique style! Some were opulent, others fresh and elegant, and still others ingeniously designed! With the renovations nearing completion, it was time to put staff training on the agenda!

Arriving at a room on the top floor, Old Qin opened the door, and Gu Lingxi saw a table full of food and someone sipping tea. She couldn't help but grimac! This guy can't eat all that by himself, yet he hogs it all! How infuriating!

What? Is Xi'er angry that I didn't wait for you to dine together?

Gu Lingxi was a little displeased. She had already told this guy not to call her Xi'er anymore, so why couldn't he change?

Young Master Long Mo, I've already told you not to call me Xi'er, why won't you listen? I'm dressed as a man, don't you think it's a bit awkward to call me that?

Jun Moli, with a serious expression, raised his eyes and lightly swept them over Gu Lingxi! Oh! Someone can call you Ling'er, but I can't call you Xi'er? What's the reason for that?

Ahem! Gu Lingxi was speechless! We're not even familiar with each other, okay?

Are you even familiar with that kid? Humph! Jun Moli looked displeased! Besides, you once made an improper move on me! You said you would take responsibility! You've already been intimate with him, and you still say you're not familiar?

What?! Gu Lingxi was speechless! That was just a slip of the tongue while drunk, how could you take it seriously? An improper act? That was an accident! An accident! Looking at the resentful look on someone's face, Gu Lingxi had no choice but to compromise! Okay, okay, call me whatever you want! Just don't reveal my true colors!

Miss Gu, you're overthinking it! I, Long, will definitely keep it a secret for you! After all, we'll be in the same boat from now on!

Gu Lingxi nodded and then proceeded to discuss the follow-up matters for the opening with satisfaction!

The two talked for a long time until dark before finally stopping! Jun Moli thought that if this woman were a man, she would definitely be an extraordinary and exceptional person! It's just a pity! She is destined to be his queen in this life!

Gu Lingxi, feeling awkward from being stared at, was starting to feel uncomfortable! Being stared at by a handsome guy who was exactly her type was starting to get hard to handle! She could only cough awkwardly. "Ahem! It's getting late, I should go back, or my dad will scold me!"

Seeing the city lights just beginning to twinkle outside, Jun Moli nodded. "This young master will see you off!"

I can do it myself!

Seeing that she insisted, Jun Moli said nothing more!

Hua Ying paced anxiously outside the door! Seeing the three return, she rushed to greet them with a worried expression!

Miss, why are you only just returning? The General has sent people to call you several times already, but I told you you were resting in your room! If you hadn't come back soon, the truth would have been revealed, and Ying'er would probably have gotten another beating!

Alright, miss, I'm back! Let's go now!

Have you mastered everything I was taught? Ying'er

Having nothing to do these past few days, she entrusted all the details of receiving female guests to Huaying! She trusted Huaying with these tasks because she knew Huaying was meticulous!

Miss, Ying'er has lived up to your expectations and has remembered almost everything!

Okay! Tomorrow you'll go to Dingsheng Teahouse to meet with Old Master Qin and be responsible for training all the waitresses! Make sure you memorize all the procedures for serving female customers before opening! Also, carefully check the daily accounts!

Hearing that her mistress had assigned her such an important task, Hua Ying felt both happy and apprehensive! "Miss, can I do it well?"

"Go ahead with confidence! I'll have Leng Feng and Leng Yu assist you!" Sensing Hua Ying's lack of confidence, Gu Lingxi encouraged her, "Miss believes you can do your best!"

In the study, Gu Fengyuan sat there with a furrowed brow. Hearing the door open, he looked up and saw Gu Lingxi. He immediately put on a stern face and said, "You brat, have you been out running wild again? You're getting more and more unruly! That brat Ying'er even dared to lie to this general!"

Gu Lingxi wasn't embarrassed at all that her guess had been right, and she said in a coquettish tone!

Dad, you love your daughter the most, right? I'm so bored staying at home all day. With Lengfeng and Lengyu protecting me, aren't you worried?

Look what this is! Gu Lingxi is holding a wine jar and shaking it back and forth!

Upon seeing that it was wine, Gu Fengyuan beamed with joy. He was also a wine connoisseur, and it was rare that his daughter still remembered his hobby!

Alright, you pass! Remember how much your father loves to drink! Put down that reckless girl! Don't smash it for me!

Gu Lingxi breathed a sigh of relief and placed the wine on the table!

Dad, what do you want to see me about?

Upon hearing his daughter's question, Gu Fengyuan frowned deeply again! This matter is a bit difficult for me to decide. Xi'er, you've grown up now and will soon be of marriageable age! You should make the decision yourself!

Gu Lingxi was very curious about what could be making her father so conflicted, leaving her to make a decision? Could it be something related to her?

Father, just tell me!

The benefactor you mentioned visiting today is actually your biological father, the former lord of Wuyang City! Ye Yunchu!
