“Someone, go conduct a search in the farm and see who is absent.” The crown prince’s gaze sunk deeply.

Qiao Mu could sense the anger bursting forth from the crown prince’s body, and she scratched his palm with her small hand to pacify him.

As far as her eyes could see, a large tract of withered crops were strewn about in the field. It was difficult to imagine that before today, the yellow shaft in this field had been growing brilliantly, already close to harvest.

Despair arose in Lin Yongyi’s heart, causing him to kneel onto the field and start wailing uncontrollably.

It was over, over, over, everything was over! This yellow shaft that had taken up so much of his time and effort, enough to feed all of Beilan City’s citizens to their fill, was wrecked just like this by a single person!

“Your Highness, Your Highness!” Xiao’ye turned back with another youth following behind him, and he gritted his teeth as he reported, “Your Highness, it’s Feng Manyun. Feng Manyun and her servant girl Xiangqin, both of them are gone!”

Crown Prince Mo was startled. He simply didn’t remember this person at all.

“Your Highness, it’s the person who you prohibited a few days ago from staying in the City Lord’s Estate so as to not disturb the crown prince consort’s cultivation… Celestial Medicine Valley’s Physician Feng.” Seeing that his master evidently didn’t remember, Huifeng quickly reminded him.

“It’s her?” Recalling Feng Manyun’s affected daintiness and adoring gaze, Crown Prince Mo felt incessantly nauseous.

“Physician Feng?” Lin Yongyi, who was sitting on the ruined field, suddenly jumped up and bellowed, “Physician Feng did it? Where is she? Where is she right now? What a malicious woman! Look at what she did! Why did all the yellow shaft here wither to death! Did she use some poisonous substance to poison the entire field to death??”

“Ah, my yellow shaft!” Lin Yongyi sprawled in the withered field and clutched a black, sticky handful of soil as he cried profusely in despair.

At this point, Lin Yongyi regretted his actions to death. If he didn’t feel sympathy for Physician Feng back then, it wouldn’t have resulted in this bad of a situation today.

That day, he had carried out the crown prince’s order and drove Feng Manyun out of the City Lord’s Estate. However, he didn’t have the heart to leave her stranded on the streets, so he secretly sent her to the farm.

Yet he didn’t expect that he was nurturing a venomous snake that bit him in return!

Lin Yongyi slapped himself soundly, but even though he was drowning in remorse and shame, he was powerless to reverse this desperate situation.

Sure enough, he wasn’t a person capable of great deeds. Back then, if he had just carried out the crown prince’s order and driven this malicious woman out of the estate without caring about her life or death afterwards, then this good harvest wouldn’t have been ruined today. Ahhh!

Lin Yongyi wept bitterly as he pounded the ground.

Only

Qiao Mu’s eyebrows shifted. “According to my conjecture, she must have ground the edelweiss into powder and scattered it into the well, tampering with the farm’s water supply.”

“This malicious woman!!” Old Man Sun spat in rage.

“There are several wells here. Bring me over for a look.” Qiao Mu suddenly spoke up. “This person is petty-minded, cruel, and malicious. I reckon that she’d have prepared a follow-up move.”

The corner of Qiao Mu’s mouth raised slightly.

Lin Yongyi once again gave himself a big slap across the face before scrambling to the crown prince and howling with a sullen face, “Your Highness, Your Highness, it’s this humble official’s fault, it’s because of this humble official’s stupidity!”

“Alright, alright! Stop wailing like a ghost and howling like a wolf here. Go see if Hong Yaowei’s abdominal pain has been cured? If it has, immediately have him lead his team to the field. If he can’t revive the yellow shaft, We will have their heads!” Mo Lian declared gravely.

Lin Yongyi promptly scrambled up, and he rushed towards the farm’s forecourt with bloodshot eyes to look for Hong Yaowei.
