Chapter176 Driving the Crazy Old Man Away

Shen Yang picked up the pastry at this moment, smelled it, and quickly opened the medicine box with him.

He took out a silver needle from the medicine cabinet and inserted it into the pastry. When the silver needle was taken out, it turned black.

At this time, Shen Yang put the cake on the table, took out some tools from the medicine cabinet, and broke off a small piece from the cake to check what the poison was.

Seeing that Shen Yang was studying this cake like nobody was watching, Mo Li said to Runyu at this moment, "Mr. Run, please stay here, and I will go out and ask who made these cakes."

"Well, OK." Runyu glanced at Yang Zijin and nodded.

Mo Li picked up the remaining cake on the table and walked out of the house. Then, he gathered all the people in the courtyard.

It was not because of what they had done that the maids were shivering with fear.

The infanta was poisoned here, where they served. If someone would like to call them to account, they would pay for the life of Her Highness with their lives.

At this time, Mo Li said, "Don't be afraid. I just came to ask you something."

"Mr... Mr. Mo, what do you want to know? We must say it all if we know... know it." Then one of the bolder maids said.

Mo Li then asked, "Who made this cake?"

Then he walked to these people and showed the cake to them.

They all shook their heads.

Seeing that, Mo Li then slightly raised his voice and said, "Really? If no one admits it and when I find out, I'll take it seriously."

"Mr. Mo, we haven't seen this kind of cake. The cake won't be made by us." After hearing what Mo Li said, the two cooks were scared to kneel on the ground.

Mo Li walked forward at this moment, squatted down in front of the two cooks, and put the cake in front of them. He said, "Look at it carefully."

"Mr. Mo, we haven't made this cake." At this moment, the two cooks quickly cracked their heads and said.

At this time, the maid on the side also said, "Mr. Mo, it was not made by them. I am a fellow villager with them. What they tend to make are ordinary cakes. They don't know how to make such beautiful cakes."

Mo Li stood up when he heard this. Exactly. It seemed that these two chefs could not make this kind of pastry.

Then he stood up and said to them, "You can go now."

At this time, the maids quickly helped the two cooks kneeling on the ground to stand up and walked away.

After they left, Mo Li looked at the cake in his hand and couldn't help but frown slightly.

Who made it? It seemed like only Lan knew the person who made it, but now Lan was also poisoned.

Mo Li couldn't help but frown. He wondered how was it going with the situation around Marquis Shuo.

If there was anything wrong with Her Highness, according to the temper of His Lordship, these servants must be killed and he would also be punished strictly.

At this time, Liang Cheng, who had been revising the drawings in the room, walked out of the room. He looked so excited.

Seeing Mo Li in the yard, so he went over. "Young man, I have already finished it. Then you should buy them according to the materials I wrote."

Liang Cheng said, and handed drawing where the required materials were written to Mo Li.

Mo Li picked it up at this moment, looked at it, and said, "Mr. Liang, I will buy these materials as soon as possible, and it won't take long."

"That's good." Liang Cheng said and walked to the side of Yang Zijin's house.

When he came to the door of Yang Zijin's house, Liang Cheng shouted to the house, "Your Highness, I have changed a little. Please help me have a look!"

Hearing that, Mo Li was surprised that why Liang Cheng and Yang Zijin were so familiar.

When he just thought of this, Mo Li ran forward and stopped Liang Cheng. Mo Li said, "Mr. Liang, Her Highness is..."

"What's up? Don't you let me see Her Highness?" Before Mo Li finished, Liang Cheng pushed Mo Li away and went into Yang Zijin's house.

Shen Yang, who was in the house and concentrated on testing cakes, was disturbed at this time. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Who are you, crazy old man? Get out."

Liang Cheng was in the house not eating and drinking for a few days. His hair was messy at this time, and his clothes were still stained with the dirt when he came back last time.

It was no exaggeration to be regarded as a crazy old man at this moment.

Hearing that, Liang Cheng couldn't help but go to Shen Yang. He pointed at Shen Yang, "Hey, you such a bad old man, you, you..."

"What? Mo Li, drive this crazy old man out. Be quick." Shen Yang interrupted Liang Cheng at this moment, and then said to Mo Li.

Hearing that, Liang Cheng was angry. He said loudly, "I'm here to find Her Highness. It's none of your business, you old jerk."

Mo Li walked forward hurriedly and said, "Mr. Liang, Her Highness could not meet you now."

"Why?" Then Liang Cheng asked Mo Li.

Mo Li explained to Liang Cheng that this was Dr. Shen. The infanta was poisoned and now she was in a coma. Dr. Shen was checking what the poison was."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Liang Cheng couldn't help shouting.

Then he realized that his voice was a little loud, so he asked Mo Li in a low voice, "What? Her Highness was poisoned? "

Mo Li nodded at this moment

"Can you find out who poisoned her?" Upon hearing this, Liang Cheng then asked.

Mo Li said and shook his head. "Not yet."

"Mo Li, take him out now." Shen Yang continued to say.

Hearing that, Liang Cheng couldn't help but hum, and then said, "I'll go now!"

"Mr. Liang, please." Then Mo Li hurriedly said.

When Mo Li left, he closed the door.

Then he caught up with Liang Cheng and said, "Mr. Liang, forgive him. Dean Shen is very easy to get along with, but he is..."

"I know. I won't take offense at him!" Before Mo Li finished, Liang Cheng interrupted Mo Li and said.

Liang Cheng naturally knew that when a person was thinking about something, he would hate to be disturbed, and so was he.

Hearing Liang Cheng say this, Mo Li said quickly, "Thank you, Mr. Liang. I will order them to buy all the things needed to build the dam, and start to work on an appropriate day."

"Better hurry." Liang Cheng caught a glimpse of Mo Li at this moment, and then headed for his residence.

Upon seeing that, Mo Li said with a smile, "Sure."

When Liang Cheng entered the house, Mo Li took another look at Yang Zijin's residence and quickly ran down the hill.

Although he was impatient, he could not be anxious now. Dean Shen had high medical skills, so he must know what the poison Her Highness took.

As long as they found out what the poison was, it would be easy.

Thinking of that, Mo Li quickened his pace again. Now that His Lordship was away, all of the affairs in Jiandu depended on him.

At the foot of the mountain, Mo Li gave the list written by Liang Cheng to the soldiers guarding the foot of the mountain.

He asked a soldier to give it to Xiao Mu quickly, and to tell Xiao Mu to take charge of it. Then he took out some banknotes worth two thousand taels, and let the soldier bring it to Xiao Mu together.

Mo Li was about to turn back.

"Mr. Mo" Then he heard the voice of Xu Qing behind him.

Mo Li turned away and looked at him. "What's the matter?"

"Mr. Mo, this is the list of people who want to go to the dam these days." When Mo Li stopped, Xu Qing ran forward and handed Mo Li the list in his hand.

Mo Li took a look at it and then said, "Thank you, sir."

"Never mind. Early this morning, potatoes bought from other places have already arrived in Jiandu. Mr. Mo, please tell Her Highness that it's very kind of her to tell the sowing methods to the people." Xu Qing then said to Mo Li.

Mo Li sighed at this time and said, "I'm afraid it will be postponed."

"Why?" Upon hearing this, Xu Qing then asked.

At this time, Mo Li said to Xu Qing, "Her Highness was poisoned."

"What? Poisoned? How did this happen?" Upon hearing this, Xu Qing asked Mo Li worriedly.

Hearing that, Mo Li said to Xu Qing, "It happened this morning. Dean Shen is trying to find a way. I still hope that you could first appease the people of Jiandu and keep this news!"

"Mr. Mo, believe me. I will handle it here. But Her Highness... Her Highness is very kind, and I am sure she can make it this time."

Xu Qing nodded at this moment, and then said.

At this time, Mo Li said to him, "Thanks, sir."

"Don't mention it, Mr. Mo. If His Lordship and Her Highness had not come, people in Jiandu would still be in dire straits." Upon hearing this, Xu Qing said quickly.

Then he said, "Then I'll go first."

"OK." Mo Li nodded.

After Xu Qing left, Mo Li hurried to the top of the mountain!

He did not know if Dean Shen had any clue.

As soon as he walked to the courtyard, he saw Runyu standing in the courtyard at this moment. Mo Li stepped forward and said, "How's it going?"

Runyu shook his head.

Mo Li was like a frustrated ball at this moment, sitting on a bench sadly.

Runyu then asked, "Mr. Mo, what's the matter?"

"Now His Lordship was away, and we don't know what poison Her Highness took. The work to build the dam is about to begin. Originally, the people will be organized to plant potatoes together. Now the potatoes have been pulled back from other places. I didn't expect Her Highness..." Mo Li felt so sad at this time.

Runyu went to Mo Li's side and said, "Mr. Mo, don't worry. Dean Shen has good medical skills, and he will find out what the poison is. As for how to teach the people in Jiandu to plant potatoes, if you trust me, I can go."

"You can do it?" Hearing Runyu say so, Mo Li raised his head and looked at him surprisingly.

Although Mo Li did not know the fame of Runyu, every time he saw Runyu, he would regard him as a kind of unfathomable person who was out of touch with the world.

It would naturally surprise him when he heard Runyu say that.

Seeing that Mo Li did not believe it, Runyu nodded at this time and then explained to him, "I saw it on the side when Her Highness planted potatoes."

"That's great. Thank you, Mr. Run." After confirmation, Mo Li stood up from the stool, said to Runyu, and gave a salute to him.

Runyu said to Mo Li at this time, "Mr. Mo, you are welcome. I will do it for the sake of Her Highness. I don't want her to blame herself when she wakes up."

At this time in Yang Zijin's room, what Shen Yang was worried about did happen. After some research, he was sure that the cake was indeed poisoned with the Sleeping Beauty.
