Chapter 275

Now the Emperor of Southern Frontier said that there was also a theft at the Residence of the Crown Prince, which was similarly emptied out. This made Mr. Si Meng puzzled for a moment.

Since he came here to recuperate, he has received a lot of bad news in succession.

First his disciple Yun Li went missing. And now Mo Yunfeng, which was under Yun Li's control, has also disappeared without a trace.

If Yun Li was dead, he wouldn't worry too much. After all, the mother Gu was in Yun Li’s hands, so Mo Yunfeng wouldn't have any hope of surviving either.

Being dead wouldn't be too bad. It would just be a little earlier than the other people of the Mo Family. He could go apologize to Little Meng down there.

What really gave him a headache were the Fifth Son of the Mo Family and Mo Jiuye.

If the person who caused all this trouble in Southern Frontier this time was really Mo Jiuye, he would definitely seize this opportunity and make sure he never returns.

Upon thinking of this, Mr. Si Meng spoke up.

"Leave this matter to me."

Seeing Mr. Si Meng agree, the Emperor of Southern Frontier hurriedly said, "I'll have to trouble you then."

Mr. Si Meng waved his hand to let him leave first. It looked like he really had to use his trump card this time.

After the Emperor of Southern Frontier left, he got up from the soft couch and went straight out through another passage...

In the rented yard in the capital city.

He Zhiran used silver needles to prick the sleeping acupoints of her two elder brothers, then helped them transfuse blood plasma again and injected them with protein drugs.

An hour later, all the blood plasma was transfused, and the two elder brothers also gradually woke up.

They felt much more spirited now. They both thought it was because their ninth younger sister had prepared nourishing meals for them and they had a good rest.

He Zhiran didn’t explain much about it.

She believed that the Southern Frontier capital must be in chaos today due to what happened in the Residence of the Crown Prince last night. She was going to go out with Mo Jiuye to take a look.

Since the Crown Prince hadn't found the person who had emptied the treasury of the Residence of the Crown Prince and rescued their seventh elder brother, he definitely wouldn't let it go easily. Moreover, at this point, he must have already attended the early court session. Bringing up this matter at the court, the number of people involved in the investigation would surely increase.

Even though they had narrowly escaped the search last night, they still couldn’t let their guard down now.

If those soldiers who were searching came around again, it would be dangerous for these people at home if they were not around.

Finally, after discussing it, the two decided that only Mo Jiuye would go out while He Zhiran stayed at home. In case of an emergency, she could make everyone unconscious and hide in her space.

Fortunately, they made that decision. Not long after Mo Jiuye left, there was a clamor of noises outside the yard.

Sure enough, those soldiers started going from door to door to search again.

This time, they were better prepared than last night. With the princess dead and her two maids also missing at the same time, it was inevitable to suspect Lan Er and Yu Er even though they were powerless weak women. Having disappeared for so long just like evaporating into thin air, it was impossible not to arouse some suspicion.

They didn't know what the thief who stole from the Residence of the Crown Prince looked like, but they did know what the two maids beside the Fourth Princess looked like. Therefore, the Crown Prince of Southern Frontier ordered them to use the two maids as clues to carry out the investigation first.

At this moment, those people were asking around with the portraits of Lan Er and Yu Er while also searching every household.

In the words of the Crown Prince, they must be thorough and not let even a mouse hole slip by.

When Lan Er and Yu Er heard the movement, they both ran to He Zhiran.

"Ninth Lady, we heard those officials asking if anyone had seen the two women in the portrait. I guessed they must be asking about us. Let's go out now. We must not implicate Ninth Lady and two Masters."

After saying that, Lan Er and Yu Er pulled each other’s hands and were about to walk out towards the main entrance.

"Stop!" He Zhiran shouted to stop them.

Just as Lan Er and Yu Er turned to look at her, they saw the air in front of them filled with white powder. At the same time, they both lost consciousness.

He Zhiran quickly sent them into her space.

As for Shun Zi, He Zhiran was not so gentle with him.

After all, there was little left of the anesthetic powder she had prepared. She had to conserve whenever possible.

Therefore, He Zhiran knocked Shun Zi unconscious with a knifehand strike and sent him into the space together with the girls.

As for her two elder brothers in the room, they were martial artists. Even though their bodies were weak, they could still hear the movement outside vaguely.

Neither wanted to implicate their ninth younger sister.

The two brothers discussed and decided to persuade their ninth younger sister to leave by herself no matter what and not care about them.

At this moment, He Zhiran walked in. "Ninth younger sister, you hide first and don't mind us."

"Listen to us. Ninth younger sister, leave quickly."

Mo Xiuyan and Mo Yuance hated themselves for the first time, for their bodies being so useless that they might even drag down their own younger sister.

When He Zhiran came in, she could already hear the footsteps getting closer and closer to the door. At this moment, she didn’t have time to explain too much either. It was too late to prick the sleep acupoints of the two with silver needles. She simply threw out a bag of anesthetic powder and then quickly brought them into her space.

He Zhiran had just appeared in her space when she was caught by Rice Ball.

Looking at the soft and cute little fellow, He Zhiran's mood instantly relaxed a lot.

She prepared some tasty food for Rice Ball before sending it away to play by itself.

Taking this opportunity while her two elder brothers were unconscious, she helped check their bodies again.

The results of the examination were not bad. Everything was developing as He Zhiran had expected.

Especially for her fourth elder brother, the recovery speed of his heart index was decent. There would be absolutely no problem with surgery in half a month.

Although her seventh elder brother's body was still slightly weaker, there was also great improvement. It shouldn't take too long before he could slowly start walking around.

Looking at the time, the few of them would probably have to sleep for a while more. He Zhiran then used her mind to check the spoils of war from the Residence of the Crown Prince.

Her main goal was to find some lotus placenta.

Luckily, after searching for a while, she finally found the small box.

The lotus placenta was small to begin with. And there was only this one piece of such precious medicinal material. If not for the box looking a bit exquisite, it could even be described as very inconspicuous.

It had been more than an hour since entering the space. The soldiers searching outside must have left already. Only then did He Zhiran bring everyone out together.

Just as they appeared in the room, Mo Jiuye returned.

"What was the situation outside?"

Mo Jiuye's expression was somewhat solemn.

"The streets were full of soldiers. The theft at the Residence of the Crown Prince had flared up. They were still carrying the portraits of Lan Er and Yu Er. I heard that the Emperor of Southern Frontier is continuing to send more men to search."

He Zhiran felt it was somewhat funny. If she didn't have her space, she really wouldn't dare to boast. With this space, even if the Southern Frontier people turned the capital upside down, they still wouldn't find them. However, she wouldn't let her guard down because of that either.

"With such chaos outside, it will probably be difficult for us to act tonight."

He Zhiran was also aware of this point. If she hadn't promised the little collector to help him find the Black South Pearl, she would have even considered finding a way to leave this place immediately.

However, she was always true to her words no matter if she could find that Black South Pearl or not. She must go to the Southern Frontier Imperial Palace at least once to be at ease.

The weather in Southern Frontier today was not very good. It was windy during the day. As soon as night fell, there was heavy rain.
