Chapter 339 Unlucky White Moonlight 15
The two men sneered in their hearts when they saw her like this. These women are hard on the outside but soft on the inside. They have been cheated by their families countless times, but they still can't let go. They deserve to be cheated by their families.
At the same time, the two of them didn't think she would lie. After all, they had three lives in their hands, and this was no joke.
After they nodded, Dongmei continued to mutter a bunch of things to her brother, perfectly portraying the role of a soft-hearted yet worried sister. Then she turned around and hurried towards the back door of the general's mansion.
In fact, this moment had already been reported to Luo An by 001, but Luo An did not make it public. She wanted to see what Dongmei would choose.
Dongmei returned to the courtyard, her face still filled with panic and nervousness. She immediately found Cuizhu and told her what had just happened.
"When did it happen?"
"Just now, I thought it was my mother who came to see me, but it turned out to be my brother and two strange men. I think this time they are targeting me instead of my brother, just to get information about the young lady from me.
You also know what my situation was like back then. If I hadn't been bought by the housekeeper, I might not even exist. I would never dare to betray the young lady."
Cuizhu observed her expression carefully and saw that she did not seem to be lying, so she immediately brought her to Luo An and told him everything.
"You told me this, what will happen to your family?"
Dongmei knelt in front of Luo An, her voice a little muffled, "Over the years, I have given them all my monthly salary. I have done everything I could. If they want to kill me, that's fine, since I was their daughter. But they shouldn't have set their sights on the young lady."
These were indeed her truest thoughts. Luo An nodded, satisfied with her performance.
Cuizhu was a little anxious. She scratched her head and thought for a long time, "Miss, why aren't you anxious at all? You don't know who wants to harm you!"
"Will urgency be of any use? Besides, it's hard to guess who in the capital city wants me dead."
Cuizhu seemed to be awakened in an instant, her expression changing from anxious to angry. "Miss, could it be that Prince Jin and that woman are behind this again?"
"Who else could it be besides them?"
Cuizhu was so angry! Her daughter was so kind, why were there always those monsters and demons looking for her? And that Prince Jin was also a psychopath. The daughter had given way to his white moonlight, and that wasn’t enough? !!!
"Then what should we do? Otherwise, we should not let Dongmei leave the house anymore and see what they can do!"
Luo An has never liked solutions that involve evasion. Since they want to know, let them know.
The master, servant and two others stayed in the room for a long time. When they went out again, Cuizhu's face was no longer filled with anxiety, but was replaced by gloating.
Two days later, Dongmei appeared at the agreed place and learned everything Luo An taught her. Looking at the two men's increasingly strange expressions, Dongmei almost laughed out loud.
I have to say, the young lady in this family is really mean!
"Are you sure you're not kidding?"
Dongmei nodded. "I spent a tael of silver to get this from the young lady's personal maid. Oh, right! This is the recipe that the master painstakingly found. The young lady plans to refine this elixir and present it to the emperor. When the time comes..."
The meaning is self-evident.
The two looked at the yellowed paper, then looked at the serious Dongmei, "Are you sure this is true?"
Dongmei nodded vigorously. "Of course it's true. Although I'm a worthless person, I also want to live a good life. How dare I make up such a lie? Oh, right! I risked my life to find out all this. If anything goes wrong later, I hope your master will save my life because of our pleasant cooperation."
Her fawning and flattering demeanor greatly pleased the other party and dispelled his suspicions. His attitude instantly became arrogant. "That's easy to say, but is that all you've learned?"
Dongmei shook her head. "There are so many more. Let me tell you... Hey! I don't know if it's a bad habit I picked up while recuperating in the other hospital, but I feel like the young lady doesn't act like a lady from a noble family at all. Her behavior is so vulgar and unworthy of a noble family."
The man, feeling he had enough information, waved his hand, interrupting Dongmei's chatter, "Alright! You must not tell anyone that we came to see you, otherwise..."
The man made a neck-wiping motion, successfully scaring Dongmei into shrinking her neck. "What about my parents and my brother?"
"We will keep our promise."
For some reason, Dongmei felt a little disappointed. He was not a good person, so why did he talk about keeping his promise?
Her young lady was right. Such family members are more poisonous than arsenic. It is better to stay away from them as soon as possible.
The man was afraid of being followed, so he walked around in circles countless times before returning to Prince Jin's Mansion. After reporting everything, he handed over the prescription in his arms.
Prince Jin opened it and took a look. He had basically seen all the medicinal herbs written on it, but he really didn't know what the effect would be when mixed together.
It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t understand. We have plenty of people who understand Chinese medicine. We can immediately ask someone to send an expert in this field.
After a while, a white-haired old man entered the study. He took the prescription and studied it for a long time before saying, "The herbs in this prescription are all nourishing, but I'm not sure about this Hell Flower."
"The Hell Flower only blooms in the southwestern borderlands, where there are many poisonous substances. This Hell Flower is the most poisonous of them all. I have never used it in medicine in all these years."
King Jin was a little disappointed when he heard this. He was excited when he got the prescription. After all, everyone wants to live forever. Emperors of all dynasties have made various attempts in pursuit of immortality, but no one has succeeded.
If he succeeds this time, he will be the one who makes history. Unexpectedly...
"You mean this prescription isn't authentic?"
The old man continued to shake his head. "Whether it's true or not, I dare not say anything rashly, but I once read in a book that the flower of hell can be used to make an elixir of immortality. Unfortunately, the book didn't explain it in detail, so I can't verify it."
The King of Jin's heart, which had just cooled down, warmed up again. "What do you mean..."
"You can give it a try."
"Okay! Just tell me what you need and I'll ask someone to find it."
Having said that, Prince Jin was still a little wary of the things that came out of the Luo Mansion. As a result, just as he sent people to collect the rare medicinal ingredients of the Hell Flower, the butler came to report the news.
"What did you say? The General's Mansion is also looking for these?"
