In the medical hall.

Mo Qianxue was still not allowed to leave. Bored, she leaned against the head of the bed and started weaving a red string.

Little Jiang Li came to help at the medical hall. She looked at the red string in Mo Qianxueʼs hands and said, ”Big Sister Mo, the red string is not made like that!”

Mo Qianxue cleared her throat and said, ”How come? I saw you making it like this!”

Little Jiang Li handed the red string she weaved herself to Mo Qianxue, ”The middle finger should hook this thread, and then the index finger wraps inside, not outside.”

Mo Qianxue murmured, ”Why is it so complicated?”

It was much more difficult than practicing martial arts!

Little Jiang Li tactfully said, ”Big Sister Mo, if you donʼt want to make this, we can do something else.”

Mo Qianxue stubbornly said, ”No, I want to do this!”

Little Jiang Li sighed, ”Okay, let me unravel it and show you how to make it from the beginning again.”

God knows this was the eleventh time Little Jiang Li had unraveled it.

She, Mo Qianxue, was praised by the Owner as a master of hidden weapons, and yet she couldnʼt even handle a piece of string.

She was annoyed!

”Big Sister Mo, watch closely.”

Little Jiang Li didnʼt sit on the stool this time but lay on the bed. She raised the red string, but as soon as she tied a knot, a hidden weapon flew through the window and shot straight towards Little Jiang Liʼs shoulder.

Mo Qianxueʼs eyes trembled, and with a swish, she caught the hidden weapon!

Unexpectedly, the hidden weapon had a sleeping powder. Little Jiang Li inhaled it, and after a few moments, she fell asleep on Mo Qianxueʼs body.

This dosage was ineffective against Mo Qianxue.

Mo Qianxue threw the hidden weapon back out the window.

There was a muffled sound, indicating that the hidden weapon hit something.

Soon, the window was pushed open from the outside, and Hua Xiyao leaped in.

She pulled out the hidden weapon shot into her fan handle and leisurely said, ”I was just joking with sister, why get so angry? If I really wanted to kill her, I wouldnʼt have used sleeping powder but poison.”

”What are you here for again?” Mo Qianxue asked coldly.

Hua Xiyao shook her fan and smiled charmingly, ”I came to tell sister that the three-day deadline is up. When does sister plan to take action against the target?”

Mo Qianxue remained composed, ”Go and tell the Young Owner, once my injuries are fully healed, Iʼll have the strength to act.”

Hua Xiyao sneered, ”Healing bones and tendons for a hundred days. Does sister plan to wait until next year? Could it be that sister became softhearted and canʼt bring herself to do it? Living here in the lap of luxury, not having to be a courtesan, not having to please those filthy men, sister must be... indulging in this life and unable to extricate herself, right?”

Mo Qianxue bluntly replied, ”When have I ever pleased those filthy men? Donʼt impose your Hua Xiyaoʼs ways on me!”

Hua Xiyaoʼs face darkened, ”The Young Owner told me to tell you, the plan has changed. Within three days, lure the target out of the capital!”

……

In the medical hall, Xiao Heng was chatting with Second Owner in the study.

Recently, Gu Jiao had been staying at the medical hall, and Xiao Hengʼs visits here had increased.

”Big Brother Xiao, Big Brother Xiao.”

Outside the door, Little Jiang Li quietly waved to Xiao Heng.

Xiao Heng glanced at the door, then said to Second Owner who was brewing tea, ”Excuse me for a moment, Iʼll go check if JiaoJiao has returned.”

Second Owner hurriedly said, ”Go ahead!”

The young couple were truly affectionate. Back in the day, he and his wife were also inseparable like this. However, with the passage of time and his inability to provide for his family, he didnʼt dare to approach his wife as much.

Xiao Heng left the study and went downstairs to a storage room with Little Jiang Li.

Little Jiang Li looked around outside, made sure no one else was approaching, and closed the door before speaking softly to Xiao Heng, ”Big Brother Xiao, someone came to Big Sister Moʼs room.”

Little Jiang Li was a medicine girl at the medical hall, ostensibly going to relieve Mo Qianxueʼs boredom but actually serving as a little spy sent by Xiao Heng.

After all, Xiao Heng wasn’t the person Mo Qianxue originally knew, so he was somewhat guarded against her.

”Who is it?” he asked.

Little Jiang Li shook her head, ”I didnʼt see her face clearly, but judging by her voice, sheʼs a woman around Big Sister Moʼs age, maybe a bit older. Her voice doesnʼt sound as young and pleasant as Big Sister Moʼs.”

Having reviewed the case file of the Heavenly Music House incident, Xiao Heng knew Mo Qianxue was seventeen this year. Thinking of a woman slightly older than her, he immediately thought of Hua Xiyao.

Hua Xiyao was nineteen and was a native of Fucheng.

Of course, origins could be falsified, and so could age. However, Minister Xing had seen Hua Xiyao and determined her age to be under twenty.

Little Jiang Li said, ”She drugged me as soon as she got here.”

Xiao Heng frowned, ”You were drugged? Are you okay?”

Little Jiang Li shook her head again. Feeling cared for, Little Jiang Li happily patted her small chest and said, ”Those drugs have no effect on me.”

”What do you mean, ʼno effectʼ?” Xiao Heng was puzzled.

Little Jiang Li scratched her small braid, ”It means... I am in very good health, especially resistant to drugs! My brother said so! I also have a good tolerance for alcohol!”

Xiao Heng: ...Youʼre only nine, and you can drink?

Xiao Heng said, ”Youʼre still young, donʼt drink in the future.”

”Um... Okay.” Little Jiang Li found the suggestion acceptable since she didnʼt like alcohol anyway.

Xiao Heng continued, ”Tell me what happened after you were drugged.”

Little Jiang Li recalled, ”After being drugged, I felt a bit drowsy, so I pretended to sleep. She drugged me with sleeping powder, and thatʼs what she said.”

This statement was peculiar.

The usual wording should be, ”I heard her say she drugged me with sleeping powder.”

But Little Jiang Liʼs words clearly indicated that she already knew it was sleeping powder and later obtained confirmation from the other party.

Xiao Heng asked, ”You can identify sleeping powder?”

Proudly, Little Jiang Li said, ”After being a medicine girl for so long, of course, I do. I also recognize arsenic and crane top red!” (a type of traditional Chinese medicinal wine)

Xiao Heng didnʼt know whether to laugh or cry, ”Okay, go on.”

Little Jiang Li continued, ”I heard that person say, ʼthe three-day deadline is up. When does sister plan to take action against the target? Could it be that sister became softhearted and canʼt bring herself to do it?ʼ Big Brother Xiao, who is this ‘target’ sheʼs talking about? Is it you?”

It was Gu Jiao.
