Cold King's Favorite: Miss Physician

Chapter 29
Ever since the three aunts and six wives had Mo Xiang's reminder, they didn't dare to make trouble, but Mo Shiwu knew that they, who were so greedy for money, would definitely think of another opportunity to bring him down.

There was nothing in the general's mansion, so Mo Shiwu handed over the token bestowed by the emperor to Steward Xu, and asked him to go to the palace to find the eunuch and take him to Luolanyuan to get back part of the emperor's reward.

"Miss, do Ling Wang and you really have a good relationship?" Steward Xu was still worrying about this while holding the token. After all, Mo Shiwu's hair was messed up when he came back, and those three aunts and six women were eager to flatter them. Didn't pay attention, but Butler Xu did.

He was worried that His Royal Highness Ling Wang did not have a good relationship with his young lady, and he was also afraid that those three aunts and six wives would come to provoke her when she had no backing.

Mo Shiwu took care of her smooth hair, and smiled lightly at Butler Xu's words. The butler probably didn't know that her lady had already made a deal with His Highness Ling Wang. I believe she will receive a notice soon. Enter the palace.

I just don't know if it will go well, after all, she was engaged to the third prince before, anyway, she doesn't have to worry about it, Leng Junling will take care of it.

Seeing Mo Shiwu nodded slightly, Steward Xu looked at the empty room, gritted his teeth, and decided to go to the palace.

"Miss, I'll come back as soon as I go, you are in the mansion, be careful."

"rest assured."

The distance was too slow, so Mo Shiwu gave Steward Xu some silver and asked him to hire a carriage.

The housekeeper is old, she should have let him stay in the mansion and go by herself, but she has other things to do, so she has to stay at the mansion for the time being.

After Seeing Butler Xu left, Mo Shiwu wandered around the entire General's Mansion, found Mo Xun's study, opened the door and walked in, there was no dust rushing towards him, presumably Butler Xu had cleaned it well.

The quiet study room gives people a gloomy feeling. The place filled with calligraphy and paintings in memory is now empty, and the pens, inkstones, paper and ink on the table are all gone. The portraits drawn by the general's wife and Mo Shiwu also disappeared.

This is caused by those money-grubbing aunts, relatives, and distant relatives. Regardless of whether they have such a relationship, I am afraid they will sweep this place up.

The general is gone, and the general's wife is gone. There is only Mo Shiwu, an orphan girl, and a five-year-old housekeeper. Who doesn't want to be bullied?
The things lost by the General's Mansion will never come back, but she will definitely demand it back from those greedy people.

Thinking of this in her heart, Mo Shiwu walked around unknowingly, and suddenly kicked something under her feet. She looked down and saw that it was a piece of old tile.

This tile is inconspicuous, in a small corner by the wall, it was covered by something before, but now it is completely exposed.

Mo Shiwu bent his face slightly, squatted down, touched the gray tile once, and pressed it again, but there was no movement. Maybe there is some mechanism?
Thinking of the mechanism settings in the TV episodes, Mo Shiwu felt a little excited. This tile looks ordinary, but it has been placed here. People who came to search for it before would not care about it. The housekeeper Xu who cleaned the room should have seen it. But why, Butler Xu didn't mention it to her?

With doubts, Mo Shiwu turned the tile, but it still did not move, maybe it was not activated in this way, Mo Shiwu thought for a while, and turned it clockwise fifteen times.

Hearing a "boom", the empty wall in front of her turned inward. Seeing the quiet and dark inside, she took out the torch she was carrying, hesitated for a while, and then left go in.

This small alley leads all the way to the bottom. Mo Shiwu stepped on the steps carefully, and checked the walls from time to time for traps.

She didn't remember the existence of this secret passage at all, and Mo Xun never mentioned it. Could it be an inheritance?Or some other dark secret?
As it went down, the light of Huozhezi became weaker, and she had to return to the study before the fire was completely extinguished.

When the steps reached the bottom, Mo Shiwu didn't find any hidden weapons on the wall. This is a good thing, but it's also a bad thing.

If no protective measures are taken for this place, it proves that this place is just a secret passage with nothing important.

There was an empty room ahead, and there was nothing there. Mo Shiwu looked around with a fire bag, picked up a stone on the ground, and threw it against the wall, but there was still no response.

Could it be that she was thinking too much, is this just a secret room for refuge?
Searching to no avail, Mo Shiwu stayed here for a moment, not wasting any more time, and hurried back to the study while the book was about to go out.

Anyway, this place can't run without long feet, and she will have plenty of time to check in the future.

Back in her room, Mo Shiwu suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness. This feeling came out of nowhere and hit her heart. These days, she has been very indifferent, and she doesn't care about everything, but it involves herself. If it is her life, she will definitely find a way to protect herself.

"Miss! Miss!" Unknowingly, the time has passed, Mo Shiwu hadn't rested for a long time, butler Xu's voice came from the front yard. He must have returned from the palace, but the voice was more than just a little happy.

Mo Shiwu tidied up his clothes and came to the front yard. There were many people standing at the gate of the General's Mansion, most of them were people who came to see the excitement, and there was also Eunuch Li whom Mo Shiwu knew.

Eunuch Li appeared at the front with a smile on his face, followed by two rows of maids, each of whom held a plate made of lacquered mahogany and covered it with a red cloth.

Butler Xu opened his mouth happily, and he couldn't see his eyes from laughing. When he saw Mo Shiwu coming to the front yard, he quickly said to her: "Miss! The emperor has come!"

After he went to the palace, he received part of the reward according to Mo Shiwu's instructions. When he was about to return to the palace, he ran into Eunuch Li who was about to leave the palace. It is Mo Shiwu's housekeeper, so he invites housekeeper Xu to return to the general's mansion together.

Although Steward Xu didn't know the content of the imperial decree, it must be a good thing that Eunuch Li had so many rewards behind him.He is happy for his lady.

Mo Shiwu saw the imperial decree in Eunuch Li's hand at a glance, and Eunuch Li also beamed with joy, signaling to Mo Shiwu not to kneel down. He has learned a lot after suffering a loss.

"By God's fortune, the emperor ordered that the general's daughter, Mo Shiwu, is smart, well-behaved, elegant and generous. She is a rare talented woman. She has made great achievements in saving the little prince, and she is honest and pure."

Eunuch Li paused for a while, cleared his throat, and continued to read: "His Royal Highness Ling is not yet married, and I specially give Mo Shiwu, the daughter of the general's mansion, to marry His Highness Ling. I hope you will be married and grow old together. This is yours!"
