C33 (2/2)

”Did you fall asleep foolishly? It can be forgotten. When you snuck into the imperial tomb, if it weren't for the Prince Mo, you would have been nothing but a pile of bones. Do you think you could still be standing here safely? ”Aiyo, this is so infuriating.”

Bai Zhixi looked at his grandfather who was drinking tea and taking his breath. No one had told her before she woke up, so of course she didn't know!

Wait?

Prince Mo?

Jun Mohan?

had been here for so long, every day he would hear Lan Yi mumbling about the person whose ears had turned up.

To be honest, she was looking forward to it. However, it was not because of his beauty, but his wealth. If he wanted more money, he had to interact more with these rich people.

As they thought about it, they started to look forward to it, and started to laugh dumbly. Lan Yi and Zi Li who were watching from the side looked at each other and shook their heads.

”Hey, what's your expression? Does that Prince Mo have any flaws? ”

After his grandfather returned to the manor, he threw Zi Li over to her:

”Your men are giving it back to you. It's been a long day since I last heard it.”

Right now, it was pretty lively around her. Lan Yi and Zi Li talked nonstop all day, talking about the interesting things that happened around them during the past half year. She would also laugh when she heard the funniest things.

”Miss, it can be said that Prince Mo does not have any shortcomings. If there really was one, it would be his illness. It was said that Prince Mo suffered from a strange disease from a young age. Every year, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he would get a disease, and on the day of the illness, he would not recognize any of his relatives. Thus, every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the clan's Royal Family would send additional people to protect the clan's Royal Family Residence tightly. They wouldn't even be able to fly into the palace with a fly, precisely to prevent people from approaching the Prince Mo and have the chance to assassinate him. Furthermore, it is rumored that Prince Mo has lived for more than twenty years. ”

It seems that the heavens are indeed fair, and all the good things cannot happen to you. I can't help but feel some sympathy for the Prince Mo that we have never met.

”Oh right, he's just a sickly prince, what kind of enemies would he have?”

Who would still be so ruthless as to not let a dying person live for one or two years?

”This... This servant does not know. ”

Lan Yi and Zi Li looked at each other, then shook their heads, looking like they wanted to speak but were unable to.

Going to the Patriarch's Mansion and Prime Minister's Estate were two different directions. Since there were only the grandfather and grandson duo in the carriage, they could only stare at each other. In the end, the Old Master Bai felt bored and leaned against the window to sleep, ignoring her.

The whole way, Bai Zhixi was bored to death. Thus, he opened the window flap, and peeked his head out to look at the bustling market. Last time, he and Lan Yi had not been able to go for a good stroll before returning home.

”Grand Elder, we've arrived at the Royal House!”

Bai Zhixi immediately leapt over the Old General Bai, tore open the carriage curtain and jumped down from the carriage. He laid on the ground beside the dignified stone lion at the entrance of her residence and puked as the two little maidservant s behind her hurried over to pat her back.

”Little girl, what happened to you?”

Old General Bai stared at her. She was not afraid of falling down from the carriage, she did not look like a girl from a noble family.

”It's fine, let's go in!”

She definitely wouldn't admit that she had gotten sick just now. Moreover, it was an ancient carriage that didn't walk fast enough. It was too embarrassing.

”Greetings, Old Bai. I am prince Lord's maid, called Qing Shu. My prince Lord has been waiting for a long time, please follow me in! ”

prince had instructed early on to tell him that a distinguished guest was coming today, but he did not expect that it would be Old General Bai. Even though Qing Shu did not know why, he still followed prince's instructions to come out and welcome them.

”Stupid girl, follow me. Don't get lost, it's a disgrace. ”

Bai Zhixi curled his lips and endured once again. After all, he was at his benefactor's residence, so he had to give him a good impression. He was too lazy to bother with him.

When she walked into the manor, she realized that what her grandfather had said just now was not wrong.

”Old Bai, Miss Bai, please follow my footsteps, don't go wrong.”

Qing Shu brought them along a complicated corridor. The design of the scenery inside was no different from the other big houses, but in reality, there were hidden mechanisms. If you took one wrong step, you might lose your life on the spot.

”The mechanism's design is really not bad, but it's very easy to break it. It's so troublesome, isn't it tiring to go home every day?”

She followed behind in boredom, looking at the design around her. She was filled with emotion. This was truly infuriating. That crappy little courtyard of hers was simply a clown's existence here.

This won't do. I'll have to scam him in a while. Otherwise, if he dies one day, these treasures will be wasted.

”Does Miss Bai think that these mechanisms are simple? Do you have a way to break it? ”

Qing Shu turned around and looked at her in disbelief. Other than the people close to prince, there was no one else who could walk as he pleased without the permission of his clan members.

Could it be that the rumors were true?

”That's not it either. I'm just bullshitting. How would I know any kind of decryption method?” ”Hehe …”

The previous Bai Zhixi was a fool, who would believe that a fool would understand mechanisms?

Furthermore, she had such a shrewd grandfather by her side. If she revealed any flaws, she would definitely die.

”Qing Shu girl, don't listen to her nonsense. If she could solve the mechanism that Mo Kid had set up, this old man could walk to the Southern Frontier upside down. ”Hmph …”

Bai Zhixi who was walking at the back really wanted to break it open for him, but she did not dare.
