Chapter 313 Gao Xian Witnesses Mo Qingkui Harming People
Mo Qingkui became increasingly uneasy as she thought about it.
If Gao Xian no longer likes her, will he take Qin Jiuwei into the palace?
What should she do if Qin Jiuwei becomes a favored concubine?
Her status in the palace will definitely plummet!
She stopped washing her hands, and her pale face was reflected in the water.
No, she can't just sit here and wait to die!
A hint of gloom and ruthlessness slowly surfaced in Mo Qingkui's eyes.
She gritted her teeth, staring at the stones beneath her feet, and suddenly began to drift into a daze.
If you want to wash yourself by this lake, you can only stand on this rock.
The surface of this large rock is covered with wet moss due to the constant erosion by flowing water, making it too slippery to stand on.
Even she almost lost her balance when she came up here.
Mo Qingkui looked at the deep, unfathomable lake in front of her, a thought flashed through her mind, and a calculating glint appeared in her eyes.
On the cliff.
Shen Xingjian lifted the vines in front of him, revealing a hidden cave entrance.
The cave is hidden behind dense bushes, and the entrance is narrow.
However, traces of human chiseling can still be faintly seen on the cave walls.
He turned to the crowd and explained, "Going in from here will take you directly down the cliff."
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across everyone's eyes.
There's even a secret passage like this!
"Where did this cave come from?" Jiang Yunzhu couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know. It was discovered by the young master's secret guards by accident, which is why we devised this plan."
"How we got here doesn't matter. Since there's a road and it's safe, let's get down as soon as possible."
Xie Jingchun urged, and then he stepped towards the cave entrance.
He stepped into the cave first, the orange glow of his torch casting flickering light on the cave walls.
The others followed closely behind, their footsteps making a soft rustling sound as they stepped on the loose soil and stones.
The cave was completely silent, except for the crackling of the torches and their occasional whispers.
"It looks like someone has repaired the cave walls here."
Jiang Yunzhu looked around and gently touched the uneven stone wall with her fingertips.
“It’s definitely not naturally formed.” Xie Jing examined it carefully and said in a low voice, “But it’s been repaired very discreetly.”
Shen Xingjian kept walking ahead, then turned around gently and said, "We'll reach the bottom of the cliff in about an incense stick's time."
The group quickened their pace, the torchlight elongating their shadows.
Mo Qingkui stood at the door of the cabin and glanced at the damp ground outside.
After being washed by the rain, some soft mud accumulated along the muddy path.
She squinted, bent down and picked up a stone slab with a dent in the middle, then went inside.
Inside the room, Qin Jiuwei was still sitting on the wooden bed, resting with her eyes down.
Mo Qingkui looked at her, a cold glint in her eyes.
She walked in slowly, pretending to bump into her unintentionally, and then slid the stone shard from her sleeve into her palm, accurately smearing the mud onto Qin Jiuwei's dress.
"Oh dear, Your Highness's wife, I tripped by accident, it really wasn't intentional!"
Mo Qingkui looked flustered and her tone was full of apology.
Qin Jiuwei glanced at her mud-stained skirt and frowned.
He looked up and stared directly at Mo Qingkui, "Where did this mud come from?"
Why hasn't she had enough of these low-class tricks?
"Ah... I just brought it in from outside."
Mo Qingkui lowered her head and fiddled with her sleeves, looking completely innocent.
"My lady, I'm so sorry, I was so careless."
After saying that, he turned and walked to a chair to the side and sat down, pretending that nothing had happened.
Qin Jiuwei: ……
They're as brainless as newborns.
Soon we'll be able to leave this cliff bottom, and Xie Jue loves to pounce on her lap.
She certainly couldn't meet the children with her skirt so dirty.
Qin Jiuwei got up and walked outside.
There seems to be a lake nearby; perhaps we can wash ourselves there.
The lake is a distance from the cabin, but it's alright.
Qin Jiuwei quickly found the lake water, bent down, and wiped the mud off her laundry dress.
The cool stream water splashed onto my hands.
Mo Qingkui stood not far away, a cold glint in her eyes.
She looked around and, seeing that no one was around, quietly took a few steps closer.
Qin Jiuwei heard the faint footsteps behind her and a cold smile curled her lips.
What a clumsy tactic.
Mo Qingkui stared intently at Qin Jiuwei's back.
He raised his hand and slowly took a step forward.
Just as her hand was about to touch Qin Jiuwei's shoulder.
Suddenly, a deep voice sounded from behind: "What are you doing?"
Mo Qingkui was startled and turned around abruptly.
Gao Xian was standing not far away, staring coldly at her.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were filled with disbelief and anger.
Mo Qingkui panicked instantly.
Gao Xian! How could he happen to be here!
Gao Xian's brows furrowed tightly, his gaze fixed on Mo Qingkui, his eyes so cold they seemed to freeze her completely.
Is bullying innocent people no longer enough for her?
She's now actually trying to kill someone!
How could she have become so vicious!
If he hadn't returned to the hut and found no one there, and followed the footprints, Qin Jiuwei would probably have died here today!
Gao Xian clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands standing out from the excessive force.
How could he possibly fall for such a vicious person!
Upon seeing Gao Xian's gaze, Mo Qingkui's face instantly turned pale.
She knew it was all over, all of it was over.
