Chapter 1309: Chapter 1309: Will Be Found Soon

"Tsk."

Zhe Jue let out a light tsk, raising his hand to touch his chin, his expression one of contemplation.

"This is uncertain, Miss Lin had confided her destination to her subordinates before leaving..."

"Really? Where did Miss Lin go, Zhe Jue guard please share with us," the imperial edict eunuch said, his eyes lighting up at the news.

Knowing where the female physician had gone, he could then go and look for her.

Even though he was more aware that perhaps the female physician was within Prince Mo’s Mansion, even if he couldn’t find her, at least he would have made the effort to look. He would then have something to report back to the Emperor.

"According to what Miss Lin said, two ingredients are missing from the elixir pills she wishes to concoct. Previously, my lord accompanied her on a search but to no avail. This time, she has gone alone in search of these two ingredients," Zhe Jue said.

He originally wanted to say that Lin Caisang had gone home, but upon reflection, he thought that going home was not a good excuse.

What if that wretched Emperor went straight to his lord, Prince Mo, to ask for Miss Lin’s home address? Wouldn’t that trap his lord as well?

He also did not understand what Prince Mo was thinking, why he would have said anything at all. Perhaps at the time, he hadn’t thought it through clearly, his focus was all on the mistress, and that was probably why he gave the wrong instruction.

"Gone to gather herbs? Did she mention when she might return?" the imperial edict eunuch inquired.

Gathering herbs should not be difficult, right? Perhaps by waiting in Prince Mo’s Mansion until evening, he could meet Lin Caisang. This was not a problem for him, it was just a matter of having someone report back to the palace first, then he could wait here.

"That’s hard to say."

Zhe Jue feigned seriousness and shook his head, indicating that he also did not know when Lin Caisang would return.

"As for gathering herbs, it’s really hard to predict. I’ve heard that the two ingredients Miss Lin wishes to find are quite difficult to locate. Prince Mo had previously accompanied her on a search without success because of his own status.

There are many matters within his mansion requiring his attention, he had to return hastily, thus returning without success.

Therefore, this time Miss Lin left alone, determined to find those two ingredients. As for when she can return, I have no idea."

The imperial edict eunuch: "..."

That explanation was virtually the same as saying nothing at all!

"Does Zhe Jue guard know where she went to gather the herbs?" he asked helplessly.

"I do not."

Zhe Jue continued to shake his head, taking the ploy of feigning ignorance to the extreme.

"Eunuch, as you well know, in Prince Mo’s Mansion, Miss Lin is considered half the master. Where she wants to go is not something I, a mere guard, can inquire into. Though Miss Lin is kind and did explain her departure to her subordinates, as for her exact destination, I really do not know."

The imperial edict eunuch: "???"

Hadn’t he just said that Miss Lin had told him where she was going? Why did he not know now?

"Zhe Jue guard..."

"But Eunuch, don’t fret."

He was about to speak when Zhe Jue interrupted him, smiling and addressing the imperial edict eunuch once more.

"Miss Lin went to gather herbs, which are just in a few mountains outside Shaohua City. Eunuch can have people search there, and it won’t be long before she’s found."

The imperial edict eunuch: "!!!"

If he was not in Prince Mo’s Mansion, he really would have cursed out loud.
