Jin Wanliang realized he had misspoke, plopped down in his chair, and asked in return:

"Tell me first, why are you interested in her?"

Gong Mojue said directly:

"Haven't you noticed that a lot has happened in Lingjin City since Lady Yuan appeared there?"

Jin Wanliang was clearly bewildered, racking his brains for a long time:

"Things? What things are worth your attention? Isn't it just that she's a miracle doctor, while that Ouyang Feng is a charlatan? What does that have to do with you?"

Gong Mojue sighed softly:

"Haven't you noticed that the name 'Yuan Niangzi' is now associated with many people?"

Jin Wanliang pondered for a moment, as if realizing something, and lightly tapped his palm with the folding fan in his hand:

"Ah~ you mean~!"

Gong Mojue nodded:

“Now, Lady Yuan is not only connected with Bai Chongshan, Bai Ziyu, Cui Rongxing and others, but also with the daughter of the Prime Minister, the master of Princess Changning, and the daughters of the Wang and Zhou families.”

"You tell me, in such a short time since she came to Lingjin City, she has developed such close, albeit unpleasant, relationships with the two major powers of Lingjin. Don't you find it strange?"

Jin Wanliang thought to himself:

If you knew, you would know that she was a woman who had never even shown her true face, yet she had already made Bai Ziyu extremely worried.

I wonder if a few more expressions will appear on your cold face.

But he asked:

"If you want to know her true identity, just investigate it yourself. Why use this to test Yu Moyan?"

Gong Mojue's eyes darkened slightly:

"I just want to see how determined Yu Moyan really is to pledge allegiance to me."

Jin Wanliang took a deep breath, suppressing his helplessness, and said:

"Could you please just explain yourself clearly to me all at once? This is really frustrating, isn't it?"

what! ”

Ignoring his emotions, Gong Mojue continued:

“Yuan Niangzi has done a great service to the Yu family. I want to see who he will choose to protect between Yuan Niangzi and her sister.”

Jin Wanliang asked:

"What if he chooses to keep Yuan Niangzi's identity a secret?"

Gong Mojue said:

"Then, since his determination to join me is not strong, I will not accept him."

Jin Wanliang pressed further:

"What if he chose to reveal Yuan Niangzi's identity in order to protect his so-called sister?"

Gong Mojue raised an eyebrow:

"So, I'm really interested in who his sister's enemy is. After all, it seems that only I can help him fight back. And what hatred could his sister, a woman confined to her home, possibly have for someone like that, that would make him sacrifice everything and risk everything to rely on someone like me, who isn't entirely reliable?"

Jin Wanliang frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked:

"Didn't you ever consider that he could still persuade Lady Yuan to willingly reveal her identity?"

Gong Mojue's eyes darkened:

"Don't worry, based on my understanding of Yu Moyan, he wouldn't make things difficult for his benefactor."

Jin Wanliang sighed deeply:

"Gong Mojue, oh Gong Mojue, I've really discovered that with your brain and your mind, the complexity and intricacy of your thoughts are..."

"Only Bai Ziyu can rival you!"

Speaking of Bai Ziyu, he suddenly seemed to remember something and hesitated before saying:

"Do you really need to know who Yuan Niangzi is? Is it because she ruined your plans?"

Gong Mojue shook his head:

"What I care about is not that she ruined my plans. What I care about is why she ruined my plans in the first place."

Jin Wanliang had no will to live:

"Does it make any difference?"

Gong Mojue nodded:

"Of course there's a difference. If she unintentionally ruined my plans, then I don't need to care about her. But if she did..."

If she's trying to sabotage me, then I need to find out why she's targeting me. Is someone instigating it, or does she have a grudge against me?

Jin Wanliang frowned:

"Did you figure it out? Was it intentional or unintentional?"

Gong Mojue's eyes darkened:

"Let's wait and see!"

Jin Wanliang looked at him with a deep gaze, thought for a moment, and then reminded him:

“Mo Jue, Bai Ziyu seems to care a lot about this Yuan Niangzi. If you still want to win him over, I suggest you don’t provoke her.”

A cold glint flashed in Gong Mojue's eyes:

"Then I'm even more curious about who this woman is!"

Jin Wanliang wanted to say something more, but Gong Mojue directly changed the subject and asked:

"By the way, regarding what I asked you to keep an eye on, have you figured out what Changning is up to in his estate outside the city?"

Jin Wanliang's expression turned serious:

"You know what, back then you said that even your secret guards, or even Liu Bai, couldn't infiltrate that manor in Changning. I thought it was bullshit."

"However, my men, disguised as deliverymen and chamber pot cleaners, did manage to get in, but every step they took inside was followed by guards. Moreover, many of my men are highly skilled, and they discovered that besides the guards in the open, there were many more hidden experts whose auras were constantly tracking them. There was absolutely no chance to secretly gather information."

"It is clear that Changning has definitely released quite a few of her shadow guards into that courtyard."

"I'm so curious, what kind of secret is she hiding in that courtyard!"

Gong Mojue frowned:

"So, still no progress?"

Jin Wanliang sighed deeply:

"Although I don't want to admit it, it's really true!"

After thinking for a moment, he continued:

"But don't worry, I'll continue to look for opportunities. I'll let you know immediately if anything happens."

of. ”

Gong Mojue nodded:

"it is good."

Jin Wanliang noticed his seriousness and couldn't help but ask:

"You're so interested in the secrets of that manor, have you guessed something?"

Gong Mojue's eyes flickered slightly, but he said:

"I have a feeling that if the secrets inside are revealed, it will be a significant blow to Changning."

"It could even be a powerful force that makes Gong Nanxian's throne teeter on the brink of collapse!"

At this point, he seemed to remember something else and looked at Jin Wanliang:

"Don't you want to know how I can make Bai Ziyu willingly join forces with me?"

"This is an opportunity that couldn't be better!"

Jin Wanliang's eyes shone brightly, and his voice couldn't contain his excitement:

"Alright, alright, I'll go back now. Keep a close eye on the people below and quickly find a way to uncover the secret of this courtyard!"

After saying that, without waiting for Gong Mojue to speak, she hurriedly ran out.

Seeing that he had left, Mo Ran opened her mouth as if to say something, but hesitated and did not speak.

Gong Mojue slowly looked at him:

"Just say what's on your mind."

Mo Ran gritted his teeth and lowered his head, saying:

"Your Highness, I still think your legs are better suited for Lady Yuan~"

Before he could finish speaking, Gong Mojue coldly interrupted him:

"Mo Ran, there are some things I don't want to say twice."

"Go and inform Liu Bai that he needs to keep an eye not only on Yu Moyan, but also on Yuan Niangzi. I have a feeling that this woman..."
