The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Chapter 88 Using jade ore to exchange

Jun Moli stared intently at the golden toad in Gu Lingxi's hand, and her voice unconsciously rose a little!

Didn't you hear what I said? Give it to me!

Gu Lingxi hadn't really wanted this ugly toad, but hearing the way he spoke to her like that, she got annoyed!

Hmph! You want it? I'll just refuse to give it to you. Let's see what you do then?

Your Highness, this seems to be something I liked first. Just because you say you want to see it doesn't mean I have to let you see it. I've made up my mind, I'll choose this one!

Jun Moli's handsome face darkened slightly, and even the ghost mask exuded a chilling aura! Of the thousands of treasures here, why did Miss Gu choose this one in particular? Could there be some unspeakable secret behind it?

Haha! Your Highness, you're overthinking it! It's the most unique one, isn't it? The Emperor didn't restrict me from choosing any of them! Doesn't Your Highness want it too?

Jun Moli's pupils contracted slightly. "How did you know I was looking for it?"

Gu Lingxi rolled her eyes wildly. "Heh! I'm not stupid. Your eyes are practically glued to it!"

Turning around and leaving, Gu Lingxi didn't want to pay any attention to this guy. She just wanted to infuriate this self-righteous fellow!

Jun Moli grabbed her sleeve!

His eyes, which had been blazing with anger, gradually calmed down. Fine, you win! I'll trade you a jade mine!

A jade mine? Gu Lingxi stopped and turned around! This thing seems quite important to this guy! Otherwise, he wouldn't have traded an entire jade mine for it!

Even if she doesn't change, this guy will definitely pester her in every way possible, and might even try to take it by force. Although she can't beat him, she has her own space and isn't afraid of him trying to take it! But for this ugly toad that doesn't know what use it is, it's really not worth offending him!

It's such a great deal that you can exchange it for a jade mine!

With a broad smile, Gu Lingxi handed over the golden toad! "Okay! Deal! Where's the jade mine contract?"

Jun Moli's face darkened. "I didn't bring it! It's at the Prince's residence. You can come and get it tomorrow!"

Gu Lingxi wasn't afraid he'd try to renege, and readily gave him the items! She then went back to the shelf and took out the largest jade cabbage! "That's it!"

When we went out, a nanny was guarding the exit!

As is customary, Miss Gu Er is required to undergo a body search when entering and leaving the Treasure Pavilion! Please cooperate, Miss Gu Er!

Gu Lingxi spread her arms, cooperating fully as the nanny searched her space! Hmph! They couldn't find anything in her space no matter how much they searched! Thinking of that pile of treasures, Gu Lingxi was quite pleased!

"Shouldn't we search for him?" Gu Lingxi pointed at the person standing leisurely!

The old woman turned pale with fright. "Miss Gu is joking! She wouldn't dare search even if she had ten lives!"

Gu Lingxi's face darkened. So it was only directed at her! How frustrating!

But then he felt relieved. With this guy's formidable reputation, who in the palace wasn't afraid of him? It seemed that everyone except himself was intimidated by his aura!

Jun Moli was preoccupied with her own thoughts and didn't even notice when Gu Lingxi left!

Could this be related to you, Gu Lingxi? Did you do this intentionally or unintentionally tonight? I hope it's all just my imagination!

The carriage swayed and rattled all the way, finally returning to the Prince Li's residence!

Chi Hun hurriedly went to greet him, obsequiously lifting the carriage curtain! "Your Highness, you're back!"

Hmm! Where is Gongsun Ruier?

They're settled in the guest room, Your Highness!

He really wanted to kick this dimwit—when did he ever say he was supposed to bring this woman back? But right now, his mind was in turmoil, and he was eager to verify something. He couldn't care less about dealing with this troublesome subordinate!

Jun Moli took out a box and carefully removed the contents!

The Golden Jade Blood Toad and the Crimson Soul looked excitedly at what Jun Moli had taken out!

Your Highness, I'm going to find Young Master Xiao!

"Yes! Go!" Jun Moli couldn't wait either. With the Golden Jade Blood Toad, finding the person who poisoned him would be much easier!

Xiao Mubai took out a silver needle and extracted a few drops of blood from Jun Moli's finger. He then pricked the unconscious Gongsun Ruier's finger and squeezed out a few drops of blood onto the Golden Jade Blood Toad!

The group huddled together nervously, waiting for the result!

In just a few breaths, the cicada, which had not reacted before, suddenly emitted wisps of dark green light!

Chi Hun danced with excitement, "Great! We've found him! The prince is saved!"

Jun Moli seemed to breathe a sigh of relief! Anyone would do, as long as it had nothing to do with that bad girl!

Xiao Mubai was indeed conflicted, wondering if it was true or not! Logically, if the person who cast the Gu poison was involved, the Golden Jade Blood Toad should have emitted a vibrant green light! If not, then it should have emitted a golden light! Even if there was no golden light, what was with this dim green? This situation wasn't recorded in any ancient texts! He was truly baffled!

Jun Moli also noticed Xiao Mubai's dilemma!

What? Is there something wrong with it?

Oh! Nothing, I was just thinking about how to prepare the antidote! Xiao Mubai didn't want to cause everyone unnecessary trouble, so he just made something up!

Your Highness, what should we do with Gongsun Ruier?

Send someone to take her back, but don't alert her yet! I have my own plans for the next step!

Early the next morning, after finishing the accounts of Yipin Qianjin Pavilion, Gu Lingxi was in a good mood. Business was very stable now, with daily recharge and consumption amounts consistently around 100,000 taels. After deducting costs and dividends for the two partners, she had an income of over 40,000 taels! But thinking of the gluttonous ghost in her space, her mood dropped again!

Oh dear! What sins has my sister committed?! Every day, she spends so much money exchanging it for good things that end up in Ah Li's mouth! The precious jewels and jade artifacts she smuggled from the palace last night, and that jade cabbage—without exception, they were all devoured by Ah Li until not a trace remained! She didn't even have a chance to enjoy them! And they're all gone!

Unfortunately, all of this was just a drop in the ocean, and Ahri's fur color only changed slightly! Gu Lingxi frowned and pondered, could it be because these were all ordinary jade stones without spiritual energy, which is why they had no effect?

The spirit stone in her mother's storage bag that day, after Ah Li ate it, visibly gained a few more strands of spiritual energy! It's just a pity there were too few; she used two or three for practicing her skills, and she couldn't bear to use the few left!

Where can I find this stuff? A jade mine! Right, I wonder if there's anything like this in a jade mine! I'll try my luck! Thinking about how the jade mine deed is still with Jun Moli, and remembering what happened last night, I'm incredibly annoyed! Humph! That scumbag! Once I'm stronger, you'll be the first one I beat up!

Outside the gates of Prince Li's mansion, Gongsun Ruier, accompanied by a maid, lingered at the entrance! Are you sure the prince doesn't receive guests? Did you tell the prince that it was Miss Gongsun from the Prime Minister's residence who had come to request an audience?

The guards at the gate looked impatient. They had already reported to the prince, who said he would not see any guests!

Gongsun Ruier clenched her teeth. Last night, she thought her life was over, but she never expected to wake up in her own bedroom, and that she was still innocent! Gongsun Ruier was both overjoyed and frightened!
