Zhou Jiaojiao nodded. In this matter, Zhao Changliu's reaction was both unexpected and expected. After all, after Chen Lin obtained the space, she did not have time to get along with Zhao Changliu. The plot of the book had just begun when Chen Lin died. Naturally, her relationship with the male protagonist was not that deep.

"Sir Mo, are you going to take Doctor Liu and the others with you?" Zhou Jiaojiao talked about business.

Mo Congwu nodded. "Well, Doctor Liu already knows how to treat the epidemic. The problems in the prefecture have been alleviated recently. I have arranged for people to take charge of various matters in the prefecture. Miss Zhou, if you need cooperation, please go to Lord Ye. Lord Ye Tongzhi now has my orders and will not embarrass Miss Zhou."

"Thank you, Master Mo."

Mo Congwu waved his hand, then took out the jade pendant, which was Chen Lin's.

"Miss Zhou, this jade pendant is a divine artifact, and it's ownerless now."

Zhou Jiaojiao's eyebrows jumped: "Master Mo, what is this?"

Mo Congwu told Zhou Jiaojiao the results of his verification: "This artifact will indeed become ownerless after its owner dies. The next person to control it will not have any headaches. This was tested on death row prisoners."

"Lord Mo, why did you tell me this news? Do you want me to kill people and steal the treasure?" Zhou Jiaojiao was speechless. She really had no interest in this dilapidated artifact.

Mo Congwu was a little surprised: "You really don't want it?"

"Why would I use something as troublesome as this?" Zhou Jiaojiao pointed to her head. "I have such a smart head. I can learn anything quickly. I have my own means of making a living. Even in troubled times, I can make a living with my medical skills. Why should I use such a useless thing to steal other people's things to make a living?"

Zhou Jiaojiao sneered as she spoke. Even if the space was quite useful, she already had it, so why did she have to take over this hot potato?

Zhou Jiaojiao thought so and looked at him suspiciously: "Master Mo, you are not trying to plot against me, are you?"

"Shouldn't we take this artifact back to General Xie? Why don't you just give it to Zhao Changliu?"

"Ahem." Mo Congwu's thoughts were exposed and he smiled awkwardly at her. Seeing Zhou Jiaojiao narrow her eyes, he quickly raised his hand and said, "I don't trust him. I'm afraid he'll take this artifact and defect to other armies because he holds a grudge against me for killing his wife. You don't know, the court is in chaos right now. The various regions are divided, and several princes have each occupied their own fiefdoms. The old emperor no longer attends court."

Zhou Jiaojiao was surprised when she heard this development: "So fast?"

She didn't seem to read that fast in the book.

However, this separation is inevitable. Zhou Jiaojiao, who knows the plot, knows that the sooner it happens, the better, and people's lives will be better.

"Do you know why?" Mo Congwu was a little angry with the hand holding the sword.

Zhou Jiaojiao looked at him, waiting for his answer.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was attacked while on his way to provide disaster relief and has disappeared. Naturally, the princes in the capital are getting restless." Mo Congwu said sarcastically, seeming to grow angrier as he spoke. "Forget it, I'm too lazy to say any more. I'll be leaving soon. Miss Zhou, this artifact is for you."

"What?" Zhou Jiaojiao was completely numb. "What are you doing to me?"

"Of course it's because your man is very capable. With him protecting you, I believe no one can take it away from you." Mo Congwu actually gave her the magic weapon.

Zhou Jiaojiao threw it away and said, "Don't give it to me now. I can bring it to General Xie for you when I go to Youzhou."

Now it feels like a time bomb in my hand.

Mo Congwu almost knelt down before Zhou Jiaojiao. "Ms. Zhou, to be honest, I'm not only going out to deal with the epidemic, I might also be assassinated. If the artifact is taken away, I would be so sorry to General Xie even if I committed suicide."

"Has the news about the artifact spread?" Zhou Jiaojiao understood instantly.

Mo Congwu said with a sad face: "After Shen Lin died, the news spread out. I just found out that she could contact people outside even in the cell. The news has spread out. There must be two princes who know about it."

"You... forget it. This news might not be concealed." Zhou Jiaojiao frowned and took the artifact back. She turned and went into the house and opened a wooden box. Inside was seven fragments. "These were dropped among the supplies at the city gate when Shen Lin's artifact broke down. I later asked the soldiers to help me find them. Can you ask the craftsmen and blacksmiths to study them to see if they are useful? I think anything that fell from Shen Lin's body should be pretty good."

Mo Congwu took it and looked at it, then nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I see. I'll find someone to research it."

He originally took seven, but after thinking about it, he only took three and returned three: "Miss Zhou, you keep the rest. I'll take one to study, and I'll send the remaining three to General Xie."

"OK."

"By the way, I don't need any help with other things. Just show me your library." Zhou Jiaojiao was determined to solidify her image as a top student.

Mo Congwu smiled and said, "No problem."

Before he left, Zhou Jiaojiao handed him a few bottles of pills: "I made some that can relieve the pain in your head. I will try my best to treat the rest of you."

"Thank you, Miss Zhou." Mo Congwu happily took a pill and became very happy.

After Mo Congwu left, Zhou Jiaojiao went to find Chu San.

"My wife." Chu San was surprised when he saw her.

"Oh, my lady, there's something I need to tell you." Chu San thought of something important and his expression became serious. "Chen Lin is dead, and Chu Qi and I burned the body."

Zhou Jiaojiao was shocked: "You guys are so great?"

Cut the grass at its roots, well done. Zhou Jiaojiao was still worried that the heroine Shen Lin would come back to life!

"Well, I was afraid that Chen Lin would be alive again. She was too mysterious." Chu San didn't think there was anything wrong with his idea at all. "But fortunately, I killed her. You don't know, she even arranged for people to rescue her after she was buried in the pit. Those people who rescued her were from the Earl's Mansion."

Zhou Jiaojiao hadn't thought about Zhou Mianmian for a long time.

It doesn't seem surprising that Zhou Mianmian would save Chen Lin. The two of them have always been in cahoots with each other, but ordinary people just don't know it.

"I killed those who came to rescue us, but the other party said that the Bo Mansion only arranged for them." Chu San seemed a little dissatisfied and wanted to kill all the people in the Bo Mansion.

Zhou Jiaojiao patted him on the back. "Don't worry, you've done a great job. Although the capital isn't in complete chaos yet, it's not peaceful. Besides, the other princes have already declared themselves kings. The whole country is in turmoil, and the Bo's Mansion can't intervene. You've dealt with these people, and even if the Bo's Mansion sends more people, it won't be that fast."
