The Elite Female Supporting Character Is Awakened [Transmigration] - Chapter 50
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
When the third prince disappeared, the emperor and the empress were furious. They mobilized all the forces in the capital city to look for the third prince. The whole city was in a state of panic and self danger. They didn’t dare to talk about anything casually anymore but suddenly became quiet.
Huo Wei’s shop was also quiet. After all, the only son of the emperor and empress were missing. It was a big deal. No one dared to come here to dress up and change clothes? She could only send people to buy some things.
Huo Wei wasn’t in a hurry. The foundation of her shop had been laid there. She didn’t need to worry about how to bring back the guests, as long as she let nature take its course. She remembered a plot in the book.
The third prince was injured and saved by Lu Jingyun unexpectedly. Then the third prince thought Lu Jingyun didn’t recognize him and was moved that she didn’t love his identity but only loved himself. He also found that Lu Jingyun was mature and steady beyond his age, different from other young girls, and had a crush on him.
She asked Lou Ye to send someone to investigate, and sure enough, Lu Jingyun was missing!
At that time, the third prince and Lu Jingyun maybe have already met, but she didn’t know if they could still spark. Lu Jingyun was the person that the emperor said to be “vicious”. The third prince would fall in love with her only because of a brain injury?
Moreover, it was known to all that Lu Jingyun bribed the monk, and she was engaged to Qingze. She was already preparing for the marriage, which was completely different from what she had read in the book. In the book, Lu Jingyun had been hooking up with Qingze in secret, but no one knew that ancient men cared about this very much. Who would like to be cuckolded?
Lou Ye was also helping to look for the third prince. Huo Wei told him about several small villages in the suburb of the capital. If he was missing, he might be locked up, dead, or in a coma because of being saved. It was better to go to the village to check if there was any clue.
Now it was almost like looking for a needle in a haystack. Lou Ye went wherever he went, so he decided to bring people to look for it only in the village and the mountain. His men had been in the army all year round, and their sensitivity in the wild was far better than others. It was the most suitable place to go to the mountain. His action was the holy will, and the emperor praised him even in anxiety.
The assassins who tried to assassinate Huo Wei were locked up in the dungeon of the secret room by Lou Ye. The prime minister had no chance to kill them, so he had to give up and asked the nail secretly arranged in the eldest prince’s camp to destroy the evidence. As for the third prince, they were not very worried. Since the prime minister was snubbed by the eldest prince, he naturally knew in advance that the eldest prince was going to assassinate the third prince. The third prince would be injured, but the prime minister played along with him. Only his confidant knew about it.
He took this opportunity to look away, and finally got some time to calm down and find an opportunity to destroy the evidence. As for the third prince, he arranged for his confidant to disguise as a farm girl to save him, and also prepared to place his confidant beside the third prince.
Unexpectedly, his men hurriedly reported that there was a ghost in the halfway, and Lu Jingyun unexpectedly appeared there and saved the third prince! Moreover, Lu Jimgyun looked suspicious, as if she had known about the assassination.
The prime minister immediately became vigilant. He sent people to investigate what the Lus and the Fangs were involved in, and then investigate the intersection between the Lu Jingyun and the third prince, and why they appeared there. His people were no longer suitable to save the third prince. Now Lou Ye was keeping an eye on him. Once the emperor mistakenly thought it was the third prince’s trick, it would be over.
The prime minister thought it would take some time for this matter to come to an end, but he didn’t expect that Lou Ye found the hunting house on the second day after searching in the mountain!
At that time, the third prince just woke up, and Lu Jingyun just talked with the third prince. He was dumbfounded when he saw Lou Ye. Lou Ye was full of doubts about Lu Jingyun. He ordered his men to take her to the emperor and escort the third prince back to the palace.
Lu Jingyun also wanted to be the Savior of the third prince. From now on, she would change her name and enter the backyard of the third prince. However, she was thrown into prison before she could get any benefits!
Coincidentally, opposite her cell was the cell of the Lis. When the three of them saw Lu Jingyun, they jumped on the railing excitedly and cursed her.
“You bitch hurt our whole family. You will die a horrible death!”
“Li Yun, you deserve it! I know you’re not a good person. You’ve been a smart girl since you were a child. You robbed your brother’s food and snitched on an elder. How dare the Lus say that we didn’t teach you well? I think you are crooked from the root! “
“I thought you were capable, but it turned out that you were locked up like us. Well, God is watching. You have been punished! “
“You are a jinx! You are the jinx! If you hadn’t wronged Qiaoshan, we would have treated her well. Now we are relatives of King Qin. How could we be in jail? “
“It’s all your fault! You will die a horrible death! “
Lu Jingyun was annoyed and shouted angrily, “Shut up! I will go out in two days just because of a misunderstanding. You are different. You are the real bad guys. You can’t go out for the rest of your life. “
“You! You! bitch!You bitch! “Mrs.Li shook the railing crazily, took off her shoes, and smashed them on Lu Jingyun’s head!
“Enough! Everyone was quiet! Be quiet! “
The guards came over and scolded. The Lis didn’t dare to make a scene, but stared at Lu Jingyun, wishing to eat her alive. Lu Jingyun was in a bad mood and anxiously said to the guards, “Hey, man! Please help me. I saved the third prince. I just met him by accident there. Please tell the third prince that I’m innocent! “
“Save the third prince? It’s not your trick, is it? “Li Zhuang sneered before the prison guard opened his mouth.
Lu Jingyun’s heart sank. She endured the pain and said sincerely, “Please help me. I have something important to tell the third prince.”
The prison guard said coldly, “Someone can find out the truth. Just wait and see!”
Although the prison guard said so, he kept it in mind. He couldn’t afford to offend the third prince if she really saved his life. So when he went back, he asked someone to report Lu Jingyun’s request to meet the third prince.
After taking them back, Lou Ye went to see Huo Wei. When there was no one else, he said to her, “You have a good idea. I found her in the second village, in a wooden house of a hunting house on the mountain behind the village. I don’t know why she was there. This person is very suspicious. “
With a smile, she embroidered a lotus bag and said, “If she is suspicious or not, just let others investigate. Don’t get involved in their business.”
“Why?”Lou Ye was confused. It seemed that Huo Wei had always kept a distance from the third prince. He approached her and whispered, “Don’t you trust him?”
Huo Wei nodded and looked up at him. She said in a low voice, “Our majesty has only three sons, and the second prince has… Now I don’t think highly of these two sons, but I have no choice. Do you think they can tolerate you after they get the position? I’m afraid they are not as generous as our majesty, and they don’t trust you as much as our majesty. “
Lou Ye smiled, “So you are worried about me. Don’t be afraid. I will arrange everything in advance so that you can be my wife safely. No matter what happens in the future, no one can make you suffer from injustice. “
“So sweet? Have you eaten honey? “Huo Wei joked. She cut off the string of the bag and showed it to Lou Ye. “It’s for you. Do you like it? I’ve practiced for several days. “
Lou Ye immediately took it over and looked carefully. The lotus bag was embroidered with bamboo. Although Huo Wei’s handmade was not very good, the bamboo was very artistic, giving people a sense of peace of mind. He cleverly avoided the embroidery and praised, “Bamboo is so beautiful. I have never seen this drawing before. Did you draw it yourself?”
“Do you think it’s okay? I’m good at painting, but I’m not good at embroidery. I just found that embroidery is very interesting recently. I learned the techniques from another, but I’m not proficient in them. “
“It’s already very beautiful.”As Lou Ye spoke, he took off his bag and tied it around his waist. He stood up and walked around in front of her. “What do you think? Isn’t it beautiful? “
“It looks good!” What was more pleasant than being cherished? Her smile lit up. She took Lou Ye’s hand and walked to the desk. She prepared Chinese ink and said that she wanted to paint new things. There were not only purses, but also sachets, clothes, handkerchiefs, and so on. The two of them ground and drew one by one. They were laughing and joking, which made others jealous.
When Lou Ye saw Huo Wei’s paintings, he was surprised to find that although her painting skills were not the best, her paintings were very spiritual and emotional, and the paintings were very real-like, like real things.
He picked up a jade plate and said in confusion, “This jade plate looks a little familiar.”
“This is the woman’s belongings. Her jade pendant was broken into several pieces. I’ve seen the way it was pieced together. She drew the whole picture and made up for the missing parts. Look at this. I also drew her jade hairpin and lotus bag. “
Lou Ye had a deep impression of the lotus bag. After all, it was complete. He was shocked when he saw the painting because it was too real-like. He took the painting and looked at it carefully. “How did you draw it? It’s the first time I’ve seen such a careful painting. “
Huo Wei was a good painter. She drew every detail in order not to neglect anything. Besides, she was painted with color, which was very real-like and beautiful. In fact, she had learned a painting method in modern times, which was to draw water drops like real water drops. The paintings in this world were not so detailed, which would naturally surprise people.
Huo Wei said, “I just want the painting to look real and drawn with a thin charcoal pen.”
Lou Ye nodded and said, “Your identity may have something to do with the empress’s mother’s family. This jade pendant is not an ordinary object. Maybe our majesty or empress have seen it. How about I take it to the palace and ask them for help?”
“I don’t think it’s a good idea? I’m neither relative nor friend to them, and now the matter of the third prince has happened. How can they be in the mood to meddle in my affairs? “
“It doesn’t matter. The prince has been found. In fact, he is not seriously injured, but there is too much blood left. Our majesty won’t be so anxious. I just take it to them to have a look. It doesn’t matter. “Lou Ye had never thought of showing them the evidence before because it would be too troublesome and rash for them. But if he only took the painting to them and asked them to have a look, it would be okay. It was just a very casual thing, and it could be regarded as a junior who asked for help.
After confirming that he wasn’t embarrassed, Huo Wei agreed and gave him all the paintings. Lou Ye kept her matter in mind all the time, which made Huo Wei very happy. Seeing that it was not early, she went out with him and planned to go to the best restaurant in the capital for dinner.
When the Lus knew that Lou Ye had caught Lu Jingyun, they felt that the world was going to collapse. Now the whole family was counting on Lu Jingyun to marry into the Fangs and win the heart of Fang Qingze to help the Lus. As a result, Lu Jingyun was involved in the assassination of the third prince and stayed alone with him in the wooden house for three days.
How could she still be innocent? How could the Marquise still want her?!
They discussed at home and thought that they must get Lu Jingyun out of the jail at once. They should make a good excuse and never let the marriage of the Fang Qingze be lost.
Therefore, they came to beg Huo Wei. It was Lou Ye who caught Lu Jingyun. As long as Lou Ye explained the situation at that time and said that she was innocent, others would not talk nonsense.
When they arrived at Huo Wei’s house, they happened to see Huo Wei and Lou Ye at the door. They directly saw Lou Ye. Of course, they wouldn’t let go of this opportunity. They quickly stopped Lou Ye from pleading with him.
Lu Yuan and Lu Heng came. To soften their hearts, they deliberately pretended to be pitiful and begged Lou Ye.
Several people were standing at the gate, and many people were watching on the road. Lou Ye said coldly, “The future of your family is up to our majesty. How can you know that she is innocent ?”
Lu Yuan didn’t know what to say and explained, “My daughter has been at home all the time. She doesn’t go out two doors and doesn’t know the assassination at all. She can’t have anything to do with it. She just went to the temple to pray. It must be an accident to meet the prince. Please let her go home! “
With his hands behind his back, Lou Ye said expressionlessly, “I don’t care about this matter. There’s no point in talking more. I’ll leave.”
“No, No. your highness, you can’t leave me alone.”Lu Yuan looked at Huo Wei and pleaded, “Help me, Qiaoshan. Yun didn’t dare do it. She just happened to be there.”
Huo Wei said, “Since the third prince has been in such a big trouble, the relevant people naturally should not be interrogated. She must be interrogated more strictly at the scene, not sentenced. Why are you so nervous? Now that you believe that she is innocent, she will definitely be released. Why do you think that someone will catch her and frame her up? “
Lu Yuan didn’t dare to take the blame. He waved his hand and explained, “No, No, No. I’m not afraid of being framed. I’m… it’s… it’s because Yun and Fang Qingze only has less than half a month left to get married. If she was still in prison, it would be inappropriate for her to do so, and she would be disgraced to the Lus and theFangs. For the sake of the past, please help me. “
Huo Wei shook her head calmly. “Last time, the empress said in person that my relationship with the Lus has been severed. Why did Mr.Lu mention it? “
“You…” seeing that she was so stubborn, Lu Yuan was furious. When he was about to scold her, he saw the cold eyes of Lou Ye. His heart trembled. He looked at them, turned around, and left.
Lu Heng lowered his head and followed him. He felt so humiliated that he didn’t say a word. Among the crowd, there were his former classmates. He didn’t know what they would think of him in the future. Lu Jingyun really destroyed both the family and himself!
This episode did not affect the mood of Huo Wei and Lou Ye. The two of them still went to the restaurant for dinner. But the marriage of Lu Jingyun, Qingze, was greatly affected.
When he went out, his friends made fun of him with Lu Jingyun. They said that he had lost watermelon and picked sesame seeds(which means lose a great deal through trying to save a little in Chinese), but he liked a woman like Lu Jingyun. He not only bribed the monk to hurt her sisters but also went to the wild and stayed with a man alone for three days.
How could he stand such ridicule? He was about to go home, but he heard that the Lus went to the Huo’s to plead for mercy, fearing that Lu Jingyun would delay her wedding.
This kind of thing would definitely be used as a joke again. His father-in-law was shameless. They couldn’t get rid of the Marquis like a blood-sucking bug. The third prince’s assassination was a big event, and Lus only wanted to marry him. Wasn’t they afraid that the Marquis wouldn’t admit it?
It was so humiliating to have such a family!
As soon as Fang Qingze returned home, he angrily went to Marquis and Marquise, saying that he would never marry Lu Jingyun. No matter what his reputation was, he couldn’t bear to marriage with Lus, and he didn’t want people like Lu Jingyun to be his first!
It was the first time that Marquis and Marquise had seen him so angry. They thought that the Lus had gone too far and made them too humiliated. And this was actually a good opportunity.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
Lu Jingyun stayed alone with the man in the wooden house for three days. Even if the man was a prince and even if she really wanted to save people, it was reasonable for them to withdraw their marriage.
Moreover, Lu Jingyun had several troubles, so they could directly say that Lu Jingyun’s and Fang Qingze’s Ba-Zi contradicted each other(八字相冲), which was the best reason to break off the engagement.
Marquise made a prompt decision and asked him to pretend to be sick as evidence. However, as a result, Fang Qingze was afraid that if he failed to hit the target, something unexpected would happen. He soaked himself in ice water directly and made himself sick. He was unwilling to take medicine, so he must look more serious.
Marquise was distressed and annoyed. Who the hell was the Lus that forced them to this. They were in such a mess because of the debt of gratitude more than 100 years ago. Even if their ancestors knew it, they would regret it. It was better to return the favor with a treasure.
Marquise called for an imperial physician in a hurry and went to the palace to cry to the empress the second day.
The two people’s Ba-Zi contradicted each other. Many people believed this kind of thing, and some people didn’t believe it. The empress didn’t know what to say. Although she could understand Marquise’s feelings and knew that no one wanted a heartless person to marry her, she also knew that at that time, Huo Wei and Fang Qingze were engaged. It was because Fang Qingze had an affair with Lu Jingyun in private that the marriage was changed.
At that time, Marquise didn’t object to what he had done and indulged him. They deserved to be laughed at.
For the sake that Lu Jingyun had saved the third prince, the empress also advised, “After Lu Jingyun has entered your mansion. If there is anything wrong, you can teach her. It may be a coincidence that the Ba-Zi contradicted.”
Marquise hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, you don’t know that since the engagement of the two of them, nothing good has happened between them, and even our two families are on the verge of decline. How dare I not believe it! Now my son is still ill in bed, and the Lu Jingyun is in prison. Obviously, their marriage is coming, and something happened all of a sudden.
I feel uneasy and can’t fall asleep at night. Your Majesty, I really have no choice! “
The empress didn’t want to meddle in this matter. After all, that day, Huo Wei personally said that she hoped the two would get married as soon as possible and grow old together. She couldn’t slap Huo Wei’s face just for the Fangs. She lowered her eyes, picked up the tea, and said indifferently, “Whether your two families can get married or not depends on fate. You’d better discuss this with the Lus. Don’t be rash. “
Marquise sensed that the empress didn’t want to take care of it. She was suffocated and gradually panic spread. This was a signal that the empress did not like the Fangs!
She thought quickly about how the Marquis had offended the empress. After thinking for a while, she only thought that the empress would back up Huo Wei in her shop. Is it because Huo Wei the empress doesn’t like the Fangs?!
Thinking of this, Marquise felt dizzy. If she had known that Huo Wei could please the empress, she would never agree to change! If there was someone in their family who had the support of the empress, they would not have to worry about the future decades!
Unfortunately, it was useless to say anything now. It was impossible to ask the empress to open her mouth, and the reputation of the Marquis could not be escaped. Marquise felt sorry for her son and couldn’t bear to be tortured by him. She was depressed and resentful. She insisted on breaking off the engagement with the Lus and directly said that the Lus didn’t like the two children.
What the Lus feared the most had come. Of course, they were not reconciled. In the past, Lu Yuan was afraid of losing the marriage with the Fangs. Now that he had been lost all, he was not afraid of Marquise. They began to quarrel with the Marquise, directly tearing apart the kindness of their great grandfather.
The Lus accused the Fangs of being ungrateful, so the Fangs blocked their mouths with money. If the Lus quarrel, there would be no money. Marquise also sent people to warn them in private not to go out if they dared to make trouble, or else they would blame others on the street.
One was a civilian, and the other was a Marquis. It was like an egg smashing a stone. All of a sudden, the Lu family’s anger disappeared. They didn’t dare to bet on their own lives, so they had to take the money and settle the matter.
The empress heard from the third prince that it was Lu Jingyun who saved him. She just wanted to find out why she was there, so she didn’t let her go. Now that they had something to do with the dissolution of engagement, the empress told the third prince about it.
The third prince didn’t feel anything, and even he suspected Lu Jingyun. What a coincidence! Lu Jingyun had been taking care of him for three days. She had time to ask someone for help, but she said that she was afraid of being left alone in danger, so she didn’t dare to leave. Was it useful for her to stay when danger came?
The third prince didn’t get along with Lu Jingyun before he was found by Lou Ye. He didn’t even remember what she looked like, so he didn’t have any feelings for her. On the contrary, Lu Jingyun had a bad reputation before, and her scheming was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The third prince immediately suspected her motivation.
However, Lu Jingyun had saved his life, so he had to express his gratitude before he found out anything, in case other people following him would feel disappointed. Now that Lu Jingyunhad lost her fiance, he couldn’t keep silent.
So the third prince asked someone to bring Lu Jingyun to see him. Lu Jingyunfinally saw the third prince. As soon as he saw the third prince, she burst into tears and cried, “Please let me go. I really don’t know anything. I was in a bad mood that day, so I went to the river alone in a daze. I have been there several times before, and the maids know it. “
The third prince nodded, “I was recuperating before, so I didn’t care about you and made you suffer.”
The third prince smiled with a good attitude as if he really treated Lu Jingyun as his Savior. He asked someone to take a seat for Lu Jingyun and ordered tea, fruits, and desserts to have a casual chat. When Lu Jingyun relaxed, he told her about the dissolution of engagement.
Lu Jingyun was stunned and annoyed. Fang Qingze was really a bastard. They had already gone to bed, but he broke off the engagement at this time. Wasn’t he forced her to die?
She thought that at least he would let her be a concubine, but she didn’t expect that he didn’t even have such a feeling for her. Her last hope for zed was completely shattered, and her heart became cold and hard.
The moment Lu Jingyun lowered his head, tears fell down again. She was immersed in sadness and murmured incredulously, “What about me? What should I do? “
The third prince remained unmoved. If he were Qingze, he would never marry her.
But he said, “You are so kind. It’s their loss that the Fangs don’t accept you. You don’t have to be sad. You saved me this time, and you are my Savior. In the future, I will not let you have anything to do. Miss Lu, do you have any wishes? As long as I can, I will do it for you. “
Everyone could say such beautiful words. Anyway, he had said what he could do. Whether he could do it or not was up to him?
Lu Jingyun knew that this was the only chance. She would never see a person like the third prince again, so she had no choice but to change her name. She looked around and wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
Seeing this, the third prince squinted slightly and signaled the servants to leave. But he left two confidants standing beside him, one on the left and one on the right, in case that Lu Jingyun would do something bad to him. He said helplessly, “My wound is not good. Mother is worried about me. She asked them to take good care of me and not to leave. Miss Lu, don’t worry. They won’t talk nonsense. If you have any wish, just say it. “
Lu Jingyun took a deep breath and said, “I want to abandon Lu Jingyun’s identity, change my name and start a new life.”
Lu Jingyun stood up and knelt down, lowered her head, and said, “Please allow me to serve you, my majesty. I will try my best to serve you!”
The third prince was a little surprised. “Really? Do you want to change your name? In that case, you will lose your family. I heard that the Lus had a hard time finding you back. Don’t you want to reunite with your family? “
Lu Jingyun cried pitifully, “Dear prince, I made a mistake and ruined my reputation, implicating my family. I don’t have the face to see them again. I just want to abandon everything and start a new life. Please help me. “
The third prince didn’t think he misunderstood her. She was going to be his concubine. After all, she had saved his life. Her wish was to change her name and come to his side. Did she come to be his maid?
No matter what, Lu Jingyun was still a lady of the Lus. How could she be a maid? So Lu Jingyun wanted to be one of the women in his backyard.
That’s interesting. As soon as the Marquis didn’t accept her, she wanted to be his concubine. It was said that it was Lu Jingyun who hooked up with Fang Qingze and snatched her away from Huo Wei. This woman was restless.
However, it didn’t matter if there were one more woman or one less in the backyard. The third prince didn’t care at all. It was so easy to return the favor of saving his life. In the future, he could still be nice to this woman and let his followers see how much he valued friendship and kindness.
The third prince agreed and asked someone to help her up. Then he joked, “It’s not good for you to repay me in this way. Why don’t you say something else?”
No one would say that they had no wish at this time, and Lu Jingyun also thought so, but she couldn’t swallow it. She thought that she had already taken the life of the peasant girl in her previous life and that she would definitely have a smooth life in the future, so she plucked up the courage to say, “If possible, I hope the Fangs can pay the price for their ruthlessness. The Lus helped them a hundred years ago, but the Fangs hit them when they were down. It’s not worth it for our ancestors. “
“It’s not a big deal.”There was no smile in the eyes of the third prince. He thought she was insatiable and didn’t want to talk to her anymore, so he pretended to be tired.
Lu Jingyun was observant and immediately left. The stone that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time was removed, and she couldn’t help but feel happy.
What she didn’t know was that after she left, the third prince’s face darkened and he was very unhappy with her.
However, what the third prince promised her was solved quickly. That night, the news of Lu Jingyun’s suicide in prison came out. The reason was that she knew that the Fangs didn’t accept her and killed herself.
Because of what had happened before, all the people in the city knew about Lu Jingyun’s death. Her sudden death or her suicide caused a sensation in the city.
The Marquis became the target of public criticism, which was equivalent to forcing the girl to death. Even though Lu Jingyun didn’t have a good reputation before, when Lu Jingyun was in trouble, the Lus still helped her. When she died, everyone would scold the Fangs for being ungrateful, kicking her when she was down, and cold and ruthless.
At first, Marquise used Fang Qingze’s illness to make an excuse. At least, to cover their disgust with the Lus. But now, Lu Jingyun was dead! She was dead!
No one paid attention to the so-called Ba-Zi contradicted, and no one cared whether Fang Qingze was sick or not. Everyone was blaming the Marquis and Marquise. It could be said that the Marquis’ plan was all in vain, and the reputation of being ungrateful and forcing the fiancee to death would never be erased.
In the future, it would be difficult for the Fangs to choose a good marriage for Fang Qingze.
What was more horrible was that if those powerful people didn’t want to contact them, the Fangs would gradually decline and disappear in the crowd. Marquise recalled that the empress did not like the Fangs. Now the Fangs were in a desperate situation.
She really hated Lu Jingyun. Who said that Lu Jingyun can bring luck to her family? Lu Jingyunwas a jinx to her parents. She was a jinx to her!!
From Lou Ye, Huo Wei knew that Lu Jingyun changed her name with the help of the third prince. She was shocked. How could she do that? No wonder Lu Jingyun risked her life to save the third prince.
It had to be said that Lu Jingyun was right. As long as she behaved well in the future, the third prince would not deal with her at will. He would let her enjoy the rich and honor. Anyway, money was not a big deal for the third prince. It was the best thing that he could spend some money to win over people’s support. His confidants would follow him at ease.
Huo Wei felt that Lu Jingyun was like an immortal fighter, and guessed that Lu Jingyun must have begged the third prince for help. After Lu Jingyun was reborn, she could do whatever she wanted. If she hadn’t come to this world, Lu Jingyun would have been invincible.
It was a pity that Lu Jingyun was too evil and despicable. Otherwise, she would have wanted to be friends with her.
The Lus held the funeral and extorted a sum of money from the Fangs to keep a low profile. The Marquis also shrank back, not daring to show up again. Now that the third prince was safe, the imperial city was no longer as heavily guarded as before. She felt that all the previous troubles had passed, and everything returned to peace. The people had a smile on their faces, and Huo Wei’s shop became popular again.
She went to the shop in the daytime and thought about embroidery when she came back at night. She found that embroidery was like an advanced version of the painting. With a three-dimensional outline and colorful colors, it was really a sense of accomplishment.
There happened to be several skillful maids in her shop, so she paid a lot of money to ask them to teach her and study carefully, hoping that one day she could embroider a lifelike embroidery.
Knowing that she couldn’t be in a hurry, she was able to concentrate on learning embroidery skills. However, as soon as the matter of the Marquis was over, Lou Ye came to her and said that there was some progress in her investigation of her identity!
Lou Ye had put the paper with the evidence in his bag. That day, he happened to meet the emperor in the palace and was left to have dinner with the emperor and the empress. So he took out the paper and asked them to have a look.
However, when the empress saw the jade pendant, she was shocked. She said that it was a favorite jade pendant she bought when she gave birth to the third prince. At that time, the baby in her belly kicked her, and she joked that the jade pendant was a gift for the baby. Later, her carriage was broken on the way, and it began to rain again. She gave birth to the baby in advance. It was in a mess, and the jade pendant was lost.
At that time, she lost a maid who had taken care of her since she was a child. After she entered the palace, the maid followed her and served her. It was said that she slipped down the hill and didn’t find her dead body. At that time, people said that she might have been taken away by a beast.
The empress recalled carefully. If the maid was still alive, she would be sixty-two years old this year.
This was the same as the bones she found in the mountain behind the Li village. The empress’s accidental delivery was outside the Li village, but it was closer to another village. She went to that village to find a household. At that time, she thought that someone wanted to hurt her, but she didn’t expect that everything went smoothly. They returned to the palace safely, but now they found the dead body and jade pendant, which made the things in the past confused again.
The emperor realized that there might be a huge conspiracy. Too many coincidences were definitely not coincidences. The appearance of Huo Wei and the empress was also evidence. An incredible guess appeared in their minds. Although they felt it was impossible, it seemed that everything could be explained.
Lou Ye came to pick her up. The empress asked her to stay in the palace for a few days. No matter what had happened in the past, the empress couldn’t calm down at the thought that Huo Wei might be her daughter. She tried her best to keep calm, but she couldn’t let Huo Wei stay outside anymore, fearing that there would be an assassin to kill her.
Huo Wei was surprised to hear what Lou Ye said. She couldn’t believe that she might be the daughter of the empress? Then who is the third prince?
