Fast Travel: After the Villain Heroine reaches the full level

Chapter 78 The Crown Princess quits (14)

Zong Wu didn't want to pay attention to Hua Wu.

But what he was discussing today was the final handling of the Feng Zifu corruption case.

She suddenly came to him at this time...

It has to make people suspicious.

Could what she did during this period be intentional to confuse everyone?

Out of caution, His Royal Highness ended today's talks.

Look at this Crown Princess, what do you want to say to him?

Hua Wu entered the dark study room and sighed, "Is our East Palace's finances so tight? It's easy to go blind if you don't even light a few candles."

Zong Wu: "..."

Whoever follows you is our East Palace?

Zong Wu clasped his hands together and propped his elbows on the table, "The Crown Princess has something important to do. She needs to come to see me late at night."

"I looked for you during the day, but you weren't there either."

"..." He is so busy during the day, how can he have time to stay in the East Palace.

Zong Wu: "The Crown Princess has not been very comfortable recently, but she still remembers me."

Hua Wu's tone was sincere: "My parents, I remember."

"..."

Do you have to call me daddy?

Zong Wu: "What's the matter? Tell me."

"Let's talk about cooperation." Hua Wu stood opposite the desk, holding the table with both hands, bending slightly: "Your Highness, you need me."

"I wonder if I and the Crown Princess can cooperate on anything?"

"You want that supreme position, but there are countless people who want to pull you down." Hua Wu smiled and said, "And I can help you."

The air in the study seemed to solidify.

What Hua Wu said has already touched the forbidden area.

How can you say such words casually?

The two looked at each other silently.

The weak candlelight flickered, and there was a soft crackling sound.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zong Wu broke the weird silence: “As a woman, what can you do to help me?”

"I did pretty well on Liang Rushuang's question. His Highness should know everything about it."

"You are using my own people." She had the nerve to say! Take his people to avenge herself!

"But I am the one who came up with the plan." Hua Wu nodded: "I can help His Highness with the plan."

Zong Wu probably thought she was here to make fun of her, "Coming up with suggestions? You?"

Is there no one around him available?

I need a woman to advise me!

A princess who is completely different from 'Qin Huan', why should he trust her?

Hua Wu nodded, "Yes, me."

"I know you don't trust me." Hua Wu let go of the table and paced in place: "If you agree to cooperate with me, I can tell you a secret to show my sincerity."

"You want to convince me based on an unknown secret."

Hua Wu turned her head, with a strange smile on her face, "This secret is related to my life and death."

Zong Wu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What's your secret first?"

"Your Highness, please think carefully about the consequences of what I said first."

"Why, if I don't agree in the end, you still dare to kill me?"

Hua Wu just laughed.

There's nothing wrong with being late for a wedding like this.

…

…

Zong Wu was obviously an adventurer, so he chose to let Hua Wu speak first.

Hua Wu didn't care, after all, her main purpose today was to 'confess'.

"Sixteen years ago, the imperial city was captured..."

Zong Wu's mind was heavy, what was she doing before going to court?

"The previous emperor had too much time to take care of himself, so naturally he didn't know that there was a concubine in his harem who was giving birth."

"When the army invaded the palace, the concubine gave birth to the last princess of the previous dynasty..."

Hua Wu looked at Zong Wu, whose brows gradually furrowed, and pointed at herself with her thin white fingertips: "That princess is your crown princess."

Wow——

Zong Wu stood up, and the chair was moved by him, making a harsh sound as it scraped against the ground.

The young man's voice was as cold as ice: "Qin Huan, do you know what you are talking about!"

"Of course I know."

"The former princess...why didn't you say you were..."

snap——

The warm and pure white jade was pressed on the brown table by the girl's thin white hands.

"Your Highness can go and check. Every emperor's heir in the previous dynasty had such a jade pendant.

This was a unique custom in the previous dynasty. After each concubine was confirmed to be pregnant, the emperor would send someone to give a consecrated jade pendant to protect the emperor's heirs.

There will be a word engraved on it.”

Hua Wu pointed at the word 'rain' and said, "Your Highness, you can check and finally record whether the jade pendant given to the pregnant concubine is engraved with the word rain."

Zong Wu stared at the jade pendant on the table.

He has seen such a jade pendant...

Among my father’s former concubines.

That concubine was also a princess of the previous dynasty. After the fall of the palace, the princess was captured and was later taken into the harem by her father for some unknown reason.

She has such a jade pendant on her body.

It's a pity that the princess passed away due to illness a few months ago, leaving behind a little prince.

The helpless little prince still had the blood of the previous dynasty. Zong Wu felt that he might see the body of the little prince in the near future.

…

…

Zong Wu couldn't believe Hua Wu's words, so he went to the palace early the next morning to check the records of the previous dynasty.

"Your Highness, why are you suddenly searching for this?" The adult who was looking for books for him was very surprised that His Highness suddenly remembered to search about the previous dynasty.

"Ask less about things you shouldn't ask."

The adult responded immediately and started to break out in cold sweat. He hurriedly looked for Zong Wu: "...I found it. This column is the last record."

Zong Wu couldn't say what he was looking for specifically, "You go out."

"yes."

"Wait a moment."

"Your Highness... Your Highness?"

"No one is allowed to talk about what happened today."

"...Weichen understands."

There is certainly no record of the palace being destroyed.

But there have been before.

The concubine became pregnant more than half a year ago. Although people in the imperial city were panicked at that time, their daily lives were normal after all, so the records are there.

Zong Wu quickly found relevant records.

Zong Wu has ten lines in one eye, and finally falls on the last line - giving the word "rain", which means continuous blessing.

…

…

East Palace.

Hua Wu sits in the yard and enjoys the sunset.

The shadow next to her suddenly covered her, blocking her sight.

"Your Highness, you are blocking me... Hey, what are you doing!" Hua Wu was dragged back into the house by Zong Wu, "Your Highness, what are you doing with your hands and feet!"

Zong Wu closed the door, "The last princess of the previous dynasty was recorded as dead... When she was found, she was in the arms of her mother-in-law."

There is no mention of jade pendants in the records.

However, it was so chaotic at that time that before the palace people escaped, they all carried gold and silver wrapped in soft goods. It was probably taken away by the palace people privately.

"Obviously, I was hired out."

Zong Wu: "Who tricked you out? Mr. Qin? Why did he do this?"

Hua Wu blinked: "I don't know about this."

The original owner really didn't know why Mr. Qin did this.

Because in the original plot, before she had a chance to ask, Master Qin had already sacrificed himself to heaven during the sadomasochistic love story between her and the male protagonist.

However, Mr. Qin himself was an official of the previous dynasty. He was framed and rescued before joining the ranks of the current emperor.

He may know Qin Huan's mother-in-law... maybe he was entrusted by someone.
