Chapter 252 Royal Bloodline
Wanqiu untied the cloth strip from the bird's feet and handed the paper to her master.
Wu Weiwei opened the note, and after reading what was written on it, her face fell.
"Auntie, what does this note say?"
Seeing her aunt's sullen face, Lingfu asked curiously.
"Princess Ji has asked me to meet her at Hongfa Temple tomorrow."
He said he had a deal to make with her and guaranteed that she would be interested in the reward afterwards.
"Aunt, you and Consort Ji are not acquainted. Why would she seek you out? Is she trying to harm you?"
Wu Weiwei frowned.
After a few seconds of silence, he said, "I have no grudge against her, so she probably can't harm me."
If they truly intended to harm me, there was no need to choose to meet outside the palace, needlessly giving themselves a handle against me…
"So, Auntie, you mean you're going to keep your appointment?"
Wanqiu asked worriedly.
Wu Weiwei chuckled softly.
No, I will not go to meet her.
She had no interest in the meeting proposed by Consort Ji.
No matter how tempting the compensation she talks about may be, she's just making empty promises to herself.
She remembered Consort Lian's matter very clearly.
She was a powerless concubine who inexplicably attracted the attention of the emperor's woman in the palace.
If Consort Ji gets into trouble, won't she be implicated?
Even with Lu Hanting protecting her, the female lead still ended up in prison. What about her?
Given her status and the Crown Prince's current indifference towards her, if Consort Ji were to have an accident outside the palace, how could she possibly fare well?
The next day.
Consort Ji waited at Hongfa Temple for a long time, but Wu Weiwei did not appear.
She looked at the young eunuch in front of her, "Are you sure you delivered the message?"
The little eunuch trembled with fear and knelt down.
“Your Highness, my people saw with their own eyes that Wu’s maid came out and took the bird inside. Wu must have seen the contents of the note.”
If she sees him but doesn't come, then it can only mean that Wu Weiwei doesn't take herself seriously.
How dare a mere concubine stand her up?
Consort Ji kicked the little eunuch in front of her.
But then he collapsed to the floor, looking quite disheveled.
"That bitch Wu Weiwei, she really doesn't know what's good for her!"
I specifically brought up the matter of becoming a royal merchant, but I didn't expect her to be completely unmoved.
Forget it, let's not count on her.
Consort Ji looked at the young eunuch, "Think of something for me, besides Madam Wu, what other way is there to rescue my sister?"
Upon hearing this, the little eunuch fell to the hard floor with a thud.
"Your Highness, we only have two spies in the Marquis's residence, and they're just ordinary servants. They can't possibly get into Qingsong Courtyard. This matter is probably going to be difficult..."
The young eunuch said tremblingly.
Since the Marquis of Dingguo's mansion changed to a new head wife, the rules have become much stricter.
Let alone Aomine, even arranging just these two people would have cost him a great deal.
How is my sister now?
"I heard he's still unconscious, but..."
Seeing that he seemed about to speak but hesitated, Consort Ji glanced at him.
"Say!"
"I heard that a distinguished guest came to the Marquis of Dingguo's residence yesterday. He is said to be the senior brother of Commander Lu and also a renowned physician. I fear he might be able to revive the Red Widow."
If the Red Widow wakes up, Commander Lu will certainly not let her off the hook by subjecting her to severe torture…
Consort Ji frowned.
She originally planned to cooperate with Wu Weiwei to rescue the person, but who knew that Wu Weiwei wouldn't give her any face at all.
"Keep an eye on it. If that person really manages to wake my sister up, then there's only..."
There was a moment of silence.
After a while, Ji Fei's eyes turned fierce, and she made a gesture to the little eunuch.
Seeing the concubine's heartless expression, the little eunuch forced himself to nod.
"Your Majesty, I know what to do."
Qiu Xinyuan.
He Yuyan looked at herself in the mirror.
She touched her disfigured face, her heart filled with hatred.
Yesterday, when the Crown Prince's senior brother, the divine physician, was treating her, he said that she had been cursed.
This Gu is called the Hundred-Day Gu. What does "hundred days" mean?
That means if no one removes the curse from her, she will only have a hundred days to live, at which point her body will rot and she will die.
Upon hearing this, she felt an urge to kill Shen Bazhi.
He Yuyan clenched her fists, her face contorted in pain.
Does he love her or hate her?
Did he actually cast such a spell on himself?
He Yuyan knew, of course, that only Shen Bazhi could save her, but she was unwilling to submit to him.
She was wronged by Wu Weiwei so badly, and she hasn't even avenged herself yet. How could she willingly leave the capital?
Let her watch from afar as Wu Weiwei ascends to the throne of the Crown Princess?
Enjoying everything that should rightfully belong to them.
No, she would never accept it.
Watching Wu Weiwei rise to power would be more painful for her than killing her.
Even though he knew she was the one who had harmed him, the prince turned a blind eye to what she had done.
And the punishment was so lenient.
They just confined her for a few days and took back the properties she owned!
What kind of punishment is this?
He Yuyan looked up at her own miserable face in the mirror.
How come I've ended up in this situation while Wu Weiwei is completely unscathed?
How could she allow that? She would never allow it.
Wu Weiwei deserves to be disgraced just like I was back then, and then I should crush her under my feet.
She wanted to turn her into a human pig to vent her hatred.
Oh, right, Xiao Qingyu.
Thinking of the appearance of the eldest brother of the Crown Prince, He Yuyan curled her lips.
She heard from the servants in the manor that before the young master arrived yesterday, Wu Weiwei tried to seduce Xiao Qingyu.
Hehe, perhaps she should make good use of this stunningly handsome senior brother.
In the guest room.
Xiao Qingyu is playing chess against himself.
It's not just Wu Weiwei who likes to do this; he likes it too.
Whenever he has something on his mind, he likes to set up a chessboard for himself, playing against his left and right hands alternately.
Jian Qing looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Master, now that you have confirmed the young master's identity,
Why not just confront him directly and bring him back?
The situation in the northern border is not optimistic. The sooner we bring the young master back, the sooner we can stabilize the situation in the northern border.
Wouldn't that give the master time to do what he likes?
Xiao Qingyu glanced at his servant indifferently.
"What you've seen is only the surface of the matter. Do you really think things are that simple?"
If that were the case, he would have taken Wu Heran back as soon as he confirmed Wu's identity, so why did he stay in Dawei for so long?
Jian Qing said he didn't understand.
But he knew that his master had been away for so long in order to find the royal bloodline that His Majesty had lost.
Now that the Ninth Prince has been found, why waste time in the Wei Dynasty?
Under the interference of the treacherous prime minister, the people of the northern frontier are living in misery. Alas!
If this drags on any longer, even more people will die, the country will be destroyed, and the people will perish.
"Give me some more time!"
Xiao Qingyu was not without inner conflict.
He knew in his heart that Wu Heran couldn't let go of his sister.
He dared not reveal this matter rashly without Wu Weiwei's consent, otherwise he feared Wu Heran would not be able to accept it.
Moreover, he is only a five-year-old child, and he may not be able to bear such a heavy responsibility.
While I was thinking, I heard someone knocking on the door of the room.
"Who?"
Jian Qing's expression changed, and he looked at his master.
"Young Master Xiao, I am Xiao Yuan from the kitchen."
Lady Hou was worried that you hadn't eaten well at dinner, so she specially ordered a servant to bring you some food..."
