The woman was dressed in luxurious clothes and had an outstanding appearance. She was none other than the real owner of Xiaoyao Tower, Mulan, who was known as the "Fairy Youlan" in the martial arts world.
Mulan walked up to the man, looking through the gap in the mask, examining the subtle changes on his face, "Su Jinyue is not simple. The token in her hand is indeed something left by her master many years ago."
Mu Ze pondered and said, "This Miss Su was raised on the farm since she was a child, and was later found by the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. How did she know the master?"
"Master's whereabouts are uncertain. It's possible that he has been to Su Jinyue's farm."
Mulan chuckled, "Just give her the three herbs. We in Xiaoyao Tower cannot go back on our word."
Mu Ze shook his head slightly, with a hint of amusement in his tone, "It would be fine if the token didn't show up, but now that we've confirmed that the token is in her hands, there's no reason to let her get these medicines so easily, we have to get her to reveal some information!"
Mulan frowned slightly, as if she was unhappy with Muze's decision, but she did not directly object. She just opened her red lips and said, "It's up to you, but don't go too far."
"I see."
Su Jinyue left Xiaoyao Tower safely, and no one stopped her when she left Liang City.
Even after escaping from Xiaoyao Tower, Su Jinyue couldn't laugh.
She finally used this token. She had never used this token in her previous life until her death.
She just wanted to avoid getting involved with the people in Xiaoyao Tower. Even if it wasn't for Old Madam Su, she would still give it a try for Xiao Duo's Xiaoyao Tower!
In the Marquis’s Mansion, in the front hall.
Su Zhiyao pretended to be concerned and looked outside anxiously, "Mother, it's already past midnight and my sister hasn't come back yet. Could it be that she can't get the medicine?"
Jiang Caiping frowned, looked at the night outside and slowly said, "Wait a little longer."
"Mother, what should I do if my sister really can't get the medicine?" Su Zhiyao asked tentatively.
Jiang Caiping seemed to have made up her mind, "If I really can't get the medicine, I can only ask her to hand over the Second Prince's badge!"
Su Zhiyao sighed beside Jiang Caiping, "Sister will definitely not agree to that."
Jiang Caiping finally hardened her heart and said, "That's not up to her!"
At this time, the servant hurriedly ran into the front hall from outside.
"Madam, the young lady is back!"
Jiang Caiping immediately stood up, "Quick, bring her here!"
In less than half an incense stick of time, Su Jinyue entered the front hall.
Jiang Caiping breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was fine. But when she saw that she had no herbs in her hand, she became worried again.
"Did you get the medicine?"
Su Jinyue said: "Someone will deliver it in a few days."
Su Zhiyao questioned softly, "Sister, are you trying to fool mother because you can't get the medicine?"
"Grandma is seriously ill and is waiting for medicine. If she doesn't come in a few days, will my sister use another excuse?"
Su Jinyue glanced at her coldly and said, "Instead of talking nonsense here, why don't you go help grandma find the snow lotus?"
"After all, grandma loves you the most. Didn't you also say that you would go through fire and water for grandma?"
As soon as Su Jinyue finished speaking, the hall fell into a brief silence.
"Snow lotus is hard to find. How can I find it easily? Aren't you making things difficult for me, sister?" Su Zhiyao had a humiliated expression.
"If Sister really wanted to save Grandmother, she should have taken out the Second Prince's badge long ago."
Su Jinyue did not comment, turned her gaze to Su Zhiyao, and said in a cold voice, "I don't need an outsider like you to tell me what to do. You should pay more attention to my grandmother's condition."
Su Zhiyao looked slightly annoyed and was about to retort, but was interrupted by Jiang Caiping, "Okay, since Jin Yue said someone would deliver the medicine, there's no need to say anything else."
At this moment, a servant came hurriedly and reported: "Madam, there is someone outside the door, asking to see the eldest lady."
Jiang Caiping frowned, "It's so late, who is outside?"
"The person who came said it was about medicinal herbs, and he wanted to talk to the young lady in person."
Su Jinyue was shocked, so fast? !
She then said to Jiang Caiping, "Mother, I'll go take a look."
Jiang Caiping hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Be careful."
When Su Jinyue stepped out of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, she saw a man in black standing quietly outside the Mansion.
"Miss Su, my master asked me to bring you a message - the herbs you need are ready. We will trade them at the abandoned temple in the western suburbs at noon tomorrow."
Su Jinyue's heart sank. The fact that the herbs were prepared so quickly meant that they had them long ago but just didn't want to give them to her at the moment.
She raised her eyes and looked at the man in black, "Why did you choose the western suburbs?"
The man in black bowed slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "My master has his reasons for doing things. My master wants Miss Su to remember to go alone, otherwise the deal will be void."
After saying that, the man in black disappeared like the night wind, leaving Su Jinyue where he was.
The next day, Su Jinyue arrived at the western suburbs as agreed. In the abandoned temple, the incense had long been extinguished, and a desolate atmosphere filled the air.
A man in black, dressed similarly, was waiting quietly with three medicinal herbs in hand.
Su Jinyue's eyes were sharp. After checking each one and confirming that everything was correct, she said, "Thank your host for me."
The man in black handed over a roll of blueprints and whispered, "This is an extra gift from the master. I hope Miss Su can make good use of it."
When the blueprint was unfolded, it turned out to be a distribution map of undercurrent forces near the capital city. It was extremely detailed and obviously priceless!
"What does this mean?" Su Jinyue became even more confused. Would the person Xiaoyao found be so kind?
"The master said that Miss Su is very intelligent and will understand the mystery."
After the man in black finished speaking, he turned and left.
Liu Su Jinyue held the blueprint in his hand, read it through, and seemed to be thinking about something.
After getting the blueprints, Su Jinyue did not return to the Marquis' Mansion, but took a carriage towards the Xuanjia military camp.
After getting off the carriage in front of the Xuanjia military camp, Su Jinyue walked up the stairs and was stopped by two soldiers.
"The military camp is a restricted area, no one is allowed to enter or leave at will!"
Su Jinyue said: "Please inform General Xiao that Su Jinyue wants to see him."
The two soldiers looked at each other and said, "Please wait for a moment, young lady. I will go and ask for instructions!"
After a while, one of the soldiers came out and said respectfully, "Miss Su, please follow me in."
Su Jinyue nodded and followed the soldiers into the tent.
Inside the tent, Xiao Duo was sitting at the desk. He heard the noise and looked up towards the door.
Seeing Su Jinyue, Xiao Duo smiled, "Why are you here at this time? Why didn't you ask someone to tell me in advance?"
After everyone left, Su Jinyue came to Xiao Duo with the blueprint she had just received and said, "I just got the news too, so I came to see you with the money first."
Placing the blueprint in front of Xiao Duo, Su Jinyue said, "This is the information I got. It is a distribution map of the dark forces around the capital. It may be related to the assassination of His Majesty."
Xiao Duo took a quick glance and quickly stopped smiling. He said seriously, "Miss Su is always well-informed."
