Chapter 268

At this point, even the dull-witted Mo Jiuye understood.

"There is an ancestral precept in my Mo family that men do not take concubines. What\'s more, I only love my wife in this lifetime. The Princess\'s request is too difficult, I\'m afraid I cannot agree."

Not only did Mo Jiuye not agree to this condition, but the two maidservants were also strongly against it in their hearts.

"Princess, you absolutely can\'t do this. No matter life or death, we will stay by your side."

He Zhiran knew that Mo Jiuye was not the kind of man to go back on his word, but when it came to things like this, she couldn\'t help feeling sour in her heart.

She looked coldly at the few people there, unable to conceal the displeasure in her eyes at all.

Mo Jiuye\'s palms were already sweating. He was angry that the princess was randomly giving him her women, and even more worried that his wife would vent her anger on him because of this.

In order to get the Fourth Princess to give up this idea, he deliberately pulled He Zhiran in front of the bed.

"This is my wife, the daughter of the prestigious He Family, the current Minister of Works. I, Mo Jiuye, only love her in this lifetime."

At this moment, the Fourth Princess\' spirit had begun to waver indistinctly, but her brain was still working.

She also knew that the Mo family men did not take concubines. If she wasn\'t at death\'s door, she wouldn\'t have thought of such a way to settle her two loyal maidservants.

The Fourth Princess struggled to keep herself conscious, then looked towards He Zhiran.

"I beg you......take them with you and help them find a good family in the future. Then I......I can......rest in peace......"

As her voice fell, she slowly closed her eyes.

Lan Er and Yu Er broke down in loud crying.

"Princess......Princess, wait for me. I will come to accompany you......"

As Lan Er\'s voice faded, she charged towards a pillar in the room.

Seeing this, Yu Er did the same, following Lan Er\'s footsteps running towards the pillar.

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye acted swiftly, coming up behind each of them and hitting them unconscious with a hand chop to stop them.

Then He Zhiran took out silver needles and inserted them into the fainting points on both of them before throwing them into her space.

She didn\'t want to play saint, but just letting her watch two living people die like this was something she, a modern soul, couldn\'t remain indifferent to.

Of course, if they were extremely evil people, even if they didn\'t commit suicide, she would still personally send them off.

Having obtained so much information from the Fourth Princess, the two dared not linger here any longer. There were still many things waiting for them to do.

Compared to the Seventh Elder Brother, everything else was less important. After the two came out of the Inner Palace, they saw guards patrolling and He Zhiran pulled Mo Jiuye to a stop first.

She then shouted at those guards, "The Imperial Concubine has passed away...the Imperial Concubine has passed away..."

While the guards were looking around trying to locate the source of the sound, He Zhiran pulled Mo Jiuye with her to flash into her space.

She intended to wait until these guards left before coming out again so as not to expose themselves before everything was done.

The two maidservants lay in the grassland of the farm in the space. Rice Ball was circling around them, looking them up and down from time to time and even reaching out to touch them with his chubby hands.

He Zhiran walked over first and picked up the little one to kiss him.

Previously, whenever his wife entered the space, she would also go to hug Rice Ball first. However, today Mo Jiuye felt like something was not quite right.

But he couldn\'t say exactly what was not right.

He Zhiran just didn\'t want to pay attention to him because of what had happened earlier. She still had a little bit of jealousy.

But she also knew clearly that this was not the time to be petty with her husband. She just didn\'t want to talk to him.

Feeling that enough time had probably passed, the news of the Imperial Concubine\'s death should have reached the Crown Prince by now.

If the Crown Prince was still out seeking pleasure at this time, it would really be inexcusable.

Even if just for appearance\'s sake, he should personally arrange the Imperial Concubine\'s funeral.

And the Crown Prince\'s residence would be more chaotic at this time. They could take the opportunity to do what they needed to do.

He Zhiran was worried that the two maidservants might wake up prematurely, so after injecting each of them with a tranquilizer, she took Mo Jiuye, who had a bewildered look on his face, out of the space.

Sure enough, things happened as expected. The guards had already left their original positions. Mo Jiuye put his arm around He Zhiran\'s waist and leapt onto the high wall.

After quickly surveying the surroundings and getting their bearings, Mo Jiuye brought her running swiftly to the outside of the Crown Prince\'s residence, hiding in the shadows to observe.

The drumming and music sounds were gone. They only saw a youth dressed in gorgeous brocade robes being led out in a huff by a group of servants and guards clustered around him.

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye were too far away to hear what they were saying. It was nothing more than the Crown Prince\'s mood being spoiled by the Fourth Princess\'s death and him being a little unhappy.

The group followed the Crown Prince, heading in the direction of the Fourth Princess\'s residence as expected.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mo Jiuye brought He Zhiran to sneak into the Crown Prince\'s residence.

This place could be perfectly described as magnificent and opulent. In Mo Jiuye\'s opinion, its level of luxury was comparable to the Great Shun imperial palace, showing that this Crown Prince knew how to enjoy himself.

The two avoided the sight of some of the servants, searching around. Of course He Zhiran would not miss the chance to fill her own little treasury, not letting a single thing slip by that she could take away.

After searching for a while, they did not find the bottle containing Gu worms here. The mother Gu worm was probably being carried on the Crown Prince\'s person.

After some discussion, they guessed that the Crown Prince would not return too quickly to deal with the Imperial Concubine\'s matters. As long as they could smoothly find the Seventh Elder Brother and remove the larval Gu worms from his body, the Seventh Elder Brother would not be in danger.

In order to accurately locate the dungeons, Mo Jiuye grabbed a servant and asked him before knocking him out and swiftly bringing He Zhiran in that direction.

The dungeons were located in the northwest corner of the Crown Prince\'s residence. The entrance was guarded by four guards.

The two of them were still wearing servant uniforms, so they could just stroll casually over.

The guards thought they were coming over to say something. Caught off guard, they were all stupefied by the anesthetic medicine scattered by He Zhiran.

Mo Jiuye swiftly dragged them to one side before they carefully walked into the dungeons.

The dungeons were dim, damp, and accompanied by a pungent musty smell.

Mo Jiuye gripped He Zhiran\'s hand tightly as the two had just walked to a brighter area when they heard the sounds of gambling by throwing dice and drinking coming from inside.

Judging from the sounds, there were four people inside.

He Zhiran took out another pack of anesthetic powder, holding it in her hand. When they walked closer, she swiftly scattered it at the few people.

The four guards who were grinning widely immediately lost consciousness.

Mo Jiuye swiftly searched them and finally found a set of keys. Only after confirming there were no other guards in the dungeons did he pull He Zhiran along to walk around the gambling table and continue deeper inside.

These dungeons were not big, only containing six rooms for imprisoning people, but they were all empty.

Only the innermost one, facing the entrance, had a disheveled person chained by iron chains to a rack.

After Mo Jiuye confirmed there was no danger, he pulled He Zhiran to quickly stride towards that person.
