Shunzi also prepared food for him, but Shunzi's cooking skills were not very good, so he could only barely feed himself.
Mo Xiuyan was weak and had no appetite, so he just took a few bites and stopped.
Just at this time, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran came, bringing sea cucumber rice porridge and side dishes.
Mo Jiuye fed the fourth brother a little again, and He Zhiran gave Shunzi several medicines suitable for the fourth brother and asked Shunzi to take them on time.
After Mo Xiuyan took the medicine and saw that the two of them were still dressed in disguise, he asked, "Ninth brother, are you still planning to go out?"
Mo Xiuyan was too weak today, and Mo Jiuye only talked about the exile at home. Mo Xiuyan didn't know those details, and he didn't know Mo Jiuye's real purpose of coming to southern Xinjiang.
If the fourth brother was healthy, Mo Jiuye would choose to tell him this, but in his current situation, he must not be able to withstand more blows, so Mo Jiuye planned to hide these things for the time being.
Of course, as a man of the Mo family, he has the right to know this, and Mo Jiuye will choose to tell his fourth brother after he is in better health.
"Fourth brother, Ran Ran and I are here to find something. Once we find the thing, we will go back to the northwest together."
Mo Xiuyan didn't know what his ninth brother was looking for, so he traveled thousands of miles to southern Xinjiang. He didn't ask further questions, but just nodded lightly: "You must be more careful when you go out."
"Fourth brother, don't worry!" After Mo Jiuye finished speaking, he told Shunzi to take good care of Mo Xiuyan before leaving with He Zhiran.
The two people's goal today is the Prince's Mansion in Southern Xinjiang, completing the second goal of their trip to Southern Xinjiang.
Because the fourth princess Dashun came here to marry was the prince of Southern Xinjiang, so the most likely place to find the birthplace was in the prince's palace.
Mo Jiuye once led an army to attack the capital of southern Xinjiang, so he was no stranger to the terrain here.
The two of them galloped along and arrived at the gate of the Prince's Mansion in a short time.
It has to be said that the Prince's Mansion is very heavily guarded. As far as the naked eye can see, there are two groups of soldiers patrolling back and forth in front of the door. It is unknown how many are in the dark.
Even if they plan to climb over the wall, they have to beware of hidden informants, which shows that the difficulty is not ordinary.
Even so, it did not dissuade Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran from entering the prince's residence to find out.
The two pretended to be passing by and walked around the wall of the Prince's Mansion to the backyard.
The guards there were less relaxed than in the front yard, but there were a few guards patrolling back and forth.
Mo Jiuye saw the right opportunity, picked up He Zhiran and jumped into the courtyard wall.
At this moment, a group of guards happened to be patrolling over. He quickly pulled He Zhiran and hid in a corner. After the guards walked away, the two of them walked out carefully.
In order to be able to walk freely in the heavily guarded Prince's Mansion, Mo Jiuye came up with a plan.
I saw two watchmen walking not far away. After he and He Zhiran looked at each other, the two of them walked around behind the watchmen at the same time. Each of them knocked him out with a sharp knife and quickly changed their weapons. Clothes, and conveniently holding the tools they used for dressing.
In order to prevent the unconscious watchman from waking up, He Zhiran gave each of them an injection to ensure nothing went wrong.
It's not that they are soft-hearted, especially He Zhiran, who was a military doctor in his previous life and would never take human life as a trivial matter, except of course for those who committed the most heinous crimes.
These two watchmen were obviously servants bought by the Prince's Palace. Such people only relied on their labor for food, so there was no need to kill them all.
After taking care of everything here, He Zhiran held a lantern and Mo Jiuye walked around the prince's residence holding a bamboo stick used for knocking.
Mo Jiuye was familiar with the terrain of the southern Xinjiang capital, but he was not very clear about the structure of the prince's palace.
They could only rely on experience to find it. The fourth princess of Dashun married the crown prince of Southern Xinjiang as the royal concubine. Her courtyard should be larger in comparison, so the two of them looked for a larger courtyard to check.
Unknowingly, the two of them arrived in front of a huge courtyard.
This courtyard is very unique. It looks brightly lit from the outside, and there is also a burst of melodious music coming from inside.
In addition, Mo Jiuye, who has excellent hearing, could also hear bursts of women's laughter.
Just when he was about to observe further, two secret guards dressed in black suddenly appeared in front of him.
The secret guard drove the two of them away in a deep voice: "You two, leave quickly. Your Highness the Prince's place is also something you can spy on?"
Mo Jiuye took He Zhiran with him and nodded to the two secret guards: "Yes, yes, let's leave now."
Although the peepers were driven away by the secret guards, they did not gain anything at all. At least they knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Southern Xinjiang was here.
It seems that His Highness the Crown Prince is quite enjoying himself. This is good, as it will not prevent them from finding the whereabouts of the fourth princess.
After leaving the prince's location, the two continued walking back.
Not long after he walked out, he saw a woman dressed as a maid running in a panic toward the prince's bedroom.
Perhaps the maid was too anxious and ran to a location not far away from them. She stepped on something and fell down.
He Zhiran took the opportunity to step forward and help the person up, and deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Sister, be careful."
The maid grabbed He Zhiran's arm and stood up with difficulty. As a result, her ankle seemed to be sprained, and she almost fell down as soon as she took a step.
Now, the maid was even more anxious.
"This little brother, please go to the prince to help report. He said that the prince's wife has passed out and asked him to help call a witch doctor to come and take a look."
He Zhiran knew that people in southern Xinjiang wanted to see witch doctors. She just didn't understand why she had to go through the crown prince when she invited a witch doctor to come to the country.
And she could tell that this maid spoke with a Dashun accent, and she should be the maid of honor for the fourth princess.
Mo Jiuye also noticed this. In order to prevent the maid from noticing that He Zhiran's accent was wrong, he quickly stepped forward and said, "His Royal Highness, people like us are not allowed to enter."
"Then what should we do? The Crown Princess is so seriously ill. If we don't ask the witch doctor to come and take a look, I'm afraid she will lose her life." The maidservant was about to cry, which showed how helpless she was at this moment.
Seeing this, He Zhiran quickly winked at Mo Jiuye.
Mo Jiuye understood instantly and said: "This little brother is a witch doctor from his ancestors, and he also knows some medical skills. Why don't you let him go and help the Crown Princess to take a look first, and then you can find someone to ask His Highness the Crown Prince?"
The maid knew clearly that in her current situation, running to beg the Crown Prince would probably waste a lot of time. This place was close to the Crown Princess's palace, so she took the two of them back first to help take a look, and she could also let others go find the Crown Prince.
