Seeing the unconscious boy in embroidered clothes on the soft couch, everyone was shocked. They stared at Zhao Zhefang who was standing to the side in horror. One of them took a step forward in agitation and said, "Are you crazy? How dare you kidnap the Prince Ding Mansion's heir in Glass City! "Just thinking about the blood on Prince Ding's hands all these years made them shudder. The Prince Ding Mansion still had the Shadow Guard and Qi Lin that were everywhere. If Prince Ding knew about this, not only them, but even their entire families and pets would not be able to escape death.
Zhao Zhefang smiled helplessly and said, "How could I have the ability to kidnap the Prince Ding Mansion's heir?"
"Then what is going on?" Everyone looked at Zhao Zhefang with a serious expression.
Zhao Zhefang sighed and said, "I don't need to guess who took care of you these days, right?" Hearing his words, the three people's expressions changed. Zhao Zhefang continued, "He already told me, that's why I asked you to come here. The news of the Prince Ding Mansion's heir's disappearance will not be hidden for long. When the time comes, the Prince Ding Mansion's guards and Mohist army will probably search every house. When that time comes ….. I'm afraid it won't be hidden anymore. "
The three people's expressions were ugly. They stared at Zhao Zhefang and said, "Why did you ask us to come here for this matter?" They were originally influential families in Da Chu State, but after they joined the Prince Ding Mansion, they were not valued at all. This time, Prince Ding wantonly appointed officials, but he obviously excluded most of the aristocratic families. After that, the aristocratic families fought over the empty position of Left Prime Minister. In the end, Prince Ding gave the position of Left Prime Minister to an outsider, Chen Xiufu. At that time, they already understood that Prince Ding did not need them. Following Prince Ding, these aristocratic families that had been passed down for generations were destined to decline. Therefore, when Mo Jingli came to find them, they were quickly moved. Not only because of the benefits and future that Mo Jingli promised them, but also because they had to fight for it.
Zhao Zhefang's old face squeezed out a cold smile and said, "Do you think that if Prince Ding finds out about this, you can escape? Right now, the Prince Ding Mansion is looking for that person everywhere. If he is caught, do you think he will expose us? "
Hearing this, everyone could not help but break out in a cold sweat. She secretly regretted agreeing to Mo Jingli's request. She was too impulsive. Perhaps they had been angered by the cold treatment from Ding Wang Fu and the loss of the Left Prime Minister's position. Would there really be a future for them if they followed Mo Jingli? But now that things had come to this, they had no choice but to turn back. Putting aside the fact that Prince Ding would never tolerate betrayers, just the fact that Mo Jingli had something on them, there was no way for them to turn back.
"Then what do you plan to do?"
Zhao Zhefang lowered his eyebrows and thought for a long time. He shook his head and said, "The little heir still has a great use. He can't be moved, but … it's not safe in my mansion. "Everyone looked at each other and nodded. The Zhao Mansion did not have any secret places to hide people. If they left the little heir here, it would not be safe for a long time.
"Then what should we do?"
Zhao Zhefang thought for a moment and said, "We must find a secret place to hide the little heir."
"Then what about the little emperor? With that person's temperament, I'm afraid he won't keep him. Why don't … "
"Not yet. If the little emperor does not attend the banquet tonight, it will arouse the suspicion of the Prince Ding Mansion." Zhao Zhefang shook his head.
"Reporting to Master, King Yu of Da Chu State requests an audience." Outside the door, a guard reported in a low voice.
Under the eaves outside the door, Mo Xiaobao sat on the carved beam under the eaves. He bent over the window and eavesdropped on the plan inside. A big smile appeared on his delicate little face.
After a while, a few people walked out of the study in a single file. Before leaving, Zhao Zhefang instructed the guard at the door to keep an eye on the people inside. He then left with the other three. Today, everyone with a little bit of face in Glass City was gathered in the Prince Ding Mansion. If they did not appear, it would be even more suspicious.
Seeing Zhao Zhefang and the others leave, Mo Xiaobao silently descended from the eaves. He looked at the two people guarding the door and frowned. His eyes quickly turned and he took out a small and exquisite object from his sleeve. He pressed it lightly against one of the people.
With a slight whoosh, one of the people at the door fell to the ground. The other person was shocked. Just as he was about to call for help, his vision turned black and he also fell to the ground. Xu Zhirui stood behind the pillar with a cold expression and glared at Mo Xiaobao. Mo Xiaobao chuckled at him and pulled him into the study. Outside, two Shadow Guards dressed in black silently landed in the courtyard. They looked at the guards lying on the ground and smiled at each other. After a while, the two guards were moved to a secret place. Two inconspicuous men dressed in guard uniforms appeared at the door of the study.
"The Prince is in such a good mood. He still has time to train the Little Heir at a time like this."
"I think the Prince won't even bother to make a move at this level of difficulty."
"The Little Heir is quite daring. He just forgot to clean up the mess." If someone suddenly came and saw the two people lying at the door, wouldn't they be exposed? Therefore, as Shadow Guards, they had to clean up the mess for their masters at any time.
"With the Little Heir and Young Master Xu's stature, they won't be able to handle such a big thing."
The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but have a thought: The Little Heir swaggered in so confidently. Was he certain that they would help him clean up?
In the study, Mo Xiaobao danced with joy as he happily looked around. After a while, he found many interesting things. The Zhao Family hadn't moved in for long, so naturally, there weren't many secret places. Moreover, even if there were any hidden mechanisms, it wouldn't be able to escape the eyes of a certain someone who had been clever and learned all sorts of things since young.
Xu Zhirui sat on the soft couch and watched a certain someone rummage through the cabinets while frowning at the two people lying on the couch. Many times, Xu Zhirui really didn't know how his cousin, who had only beaten him when he was less than two years old, grew up to be like this. His aunt was clearly gentle and elegant, and Prince Ding's uncle was also extraordinary and had the air of a king. However, his cousin grew up to be neither. Other than that pretty face that could still be seen, there wasn't a single moment of rest.
"Are you here to see the two of them?" Xu Zhirui asked unhappily.
Mo Xiaobao raised his head and glanced at him. He casually threw over a small porcelain bottle and said, "What's there to see? They were drugged. Just smell it and they'll wake up. This is from Sister Yunge. It can cure all the sleeping incense. " After speaking, he continued to flip through the letters and booklets that he took out from one of Zhao Zhefang's locked cabinets without raising his head.
Xu Zhirui wordlessly placed the medicine bottle under Qin Lie and Mo Suiyun's noses for them to smell. As expected, Qin Lie was the first to wake up in a short while. He wasn't surprised to see Xu Zhirui and sat up silently. After a while, Mo Suiyun also woke up. However, he wasn't as calm as Qin Lie and almost cried out. However, Qin Lie and Xu Zhirui both covered his mouth.
