Chapter 355 Princess Consort of Hailing

While the nun was shocked, Wei Shuyu was also shocked.

This is hardly a nun.

She was in her early thirties, with fair and delicate skin, a straight and elegant nose, pale red lips, and slightly furrowed brows. Her appearance was refined and extremely beautiful.

Her cheeks were flushed with shock.

Who exactly are you?

The nun calmed herself, her delicate face appearing as if covered in frost.

"Shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking someone's name?" Wei Shuyu said with a smile.

"I'm looking for Fang Yi'ai, not you!"

The nun, her face cold, urged them on: "Whatever your purpose, get out of here now!"

But how could Wei Shuyu leave?

Instead, he took two steps forward...

“Master, Fang Yi’ai is Fang Xuanling’s son.”

"Aren't you afraid of Fang Xuanling's revenge for scheming against him like this?"

Wei Shuyu's eyes were sharp as he stared intently at the other person.

He could detect even the slightest fluctuation...

"Have you ever considered one possibility...?"

The nun's expression changed, becoming extremely cold and stern: "If you don't leave now, you'll never be able to leave!"

Wei Shuyu was taken aback.

He could actually sense an extremely strong killing intent emanating from this woman.

What deep-seated hatred, what profound resentment...

"Master, please don't act rashly."

Wei Shuyu's tense attitude eased: "Everything is negotiable."

"Now that I'm here, perhaps there's a possibility we can cooperate..."

Wei Shuyu began to ease the tension.

We've finally caught a big, unknown fish; we can't let it get away.

"You?"

A hint of disdain flashed in the nun's eyes.

"You look down on me, don't you?"

Wei Shuyu feigned anger and said, "Don't even mention finding Fang Yi'ai for you, I could invite the Crown Prince or the Prince of Wei over if I said so!"

Huh?

The nun let out a soft exclamation.

In the entire city of Chang'an, there is only one person of this ability at this age!

"Are you Wei Shuyu?" the nun asked tentatively.

"I am of humble talent!"

Wei Shuyu feigned politeness and said, "My surname is Cui, and my given name is Shenji!"

"The legendary Divine Foundation Master that's been talked about throughout the streets and alleys of Chang'an is none other than myself!"

The nun remained unmoved, her face still cold...

"shut up!"

The nun snapped, "If you dare to spout nonsense again, get out of here!"

Can't take a joke?

Then we won't open it...

"My name is Wei Shuyu!"

Wei Shuyu bowed and asked, "May I ask your name, Abbess?"

Wei Shuyu originally wanted to ask for a Buddhist name.

But then I thought, what good would a Dharma name do?

"Aren't you very capable?"

The nun glanced sideways at Wei Shuyu: "You can even invite the Crown Prince and the Prince of Wei, why don't you investigate yourself?"

Well……

Wouldn't it be better to just ask you directly instead of wasting time on that?

"May I ask if the nun has had an affair with His Majesty...?"

Wei Shuyu lowered his voice and said four words: "Intimacy?"

How can you tell?

The nun's calm demeanor surprised even Wei Shuyu.

Most people, upon hearing this, should feel ashamed, angry, or secretly pleased...

Why are you expressionless?

"It's very simple..."

Wei Shuyu pointed to the door: "Those two guards at the door are His Majesty's secret guards."

"What if they're here to guard the prisoners?" the nun asked casually.

"You just don't understand..."

Wei Shuyu grinned: "His Majesty is so stingy, how could he possibly treat prisoners so well?"

"Look at that Guanyin statue, it even has gold trim."

“If I were His Majesty’s woman, why would I be in a nunnery?” the nun retorted.

"How would I know?"

Wei Shuyu shrugged: "Whether it's your quirk or His Majesty's, we, as his subjects, shouldn't say too much."

The nun did not answer.

With that infuriating skill, there's no doubt he's from the Wei family.

"Alright."

The nun's murderous intent subsided: "For Wei Zheng's sake, you can leave."

"Then why did you harm Fang Yi'ai?" Wei Shuyu asked unwillingly.

"Don't pry into some things!"

The nun knelt on the prayer mat again, intently striking the wooden fish.

But how could Wei Shuyu just leave like that?

What exactly is your relationship with Chen Shuozhen?

"You're the woman behind Chen Shuozhen, aren't you?"

"Wasn't it you who advised His Majesty that Chen Shuo was able to establish the Holy Spirit Cult?"

Wei Shuyu kept buzzing around like a fly.

The nuns were thoroughly annoyed.

"Are you done talking?"

The nun gave Wei Shuyu a cold look: "Get out of here after you've finished speaking!"

"It's not over yet!"

Wei Shuyu stubbornly shook his head: "Do you know that you have committed a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family!"

Bang!

Wei Shuyu's words seemed to sting the nun.

She slammed the wooden fish mallet hard onto the table!

"Shut up!"

The nun's eyes flashed with a cold light, as if she wanted to scrape Wei Shuyu clean!

efficient?

Seeing that the other party was angry, Wei Shuyu not only did not shut up, but became even more agitated.

If you can make the other person lose their temper, you're very likely to get some information out of them.

"You are His Majesty's woman."

Wei Shuyu continued, "Logically, you should be on His Majesty's side."

"I don't know why you became a nun at Shuiyunzhai."

"Perhaps His Majesty has wronged you."

"But even if you encounter unpleasant things, you should face them calmly. Think of your family."

"besides……"

"Judging from your tone earlier, it seems you know my father."

"If you have any grievances, you can tell me."

"If you are truly innocent, my father will definitely give you justice!"

Wei Shuyu unleashed a torrent of words.

But the nun did not lose her mind; instead, she became even more somber and cold.

"justice?"

The nun's cold eyes held a hint of melancholy: "Your father can't uphold justice for me!"

"Don't you want to know who I am?"

"It wouldn't hurt to tell you..."

"You'll find out sooner or later anyway!"

The nun clasped her hands together and bowed to the statue of Guanyin.

Just as Wei Shuyu was about to ask again, the nun spoke up...

"I am Princess Consort of Hailing!"

Oh, Your Highness.

etc……

princess?

Didn't you have an affair with Li Shimin?

"Are you referring to the princess or the imperial concubine?" Wei Shuyu asked in shock.

"Haven't you heard of Princess Hailing?"

The nun turned to look at Wei Shuyu, a hint of madness in her eyes: "Then have you ever heard of the Princess Consort of Qi!"

Grass!

Wei Shuyu was startled.

King Qi, Li Yuanji!

He then remembered that in the second year of the Zhenguan era, Li Yuanji was conferred the title of Prince of Hailing by Li Shimin.

However, Li Shimin has one infamous stain on his record in historical texts...

He took his brother's wife for himself!

So the person in front of you is the Princess Qi who was taken by Li Shimin?

This melon is quite big!

I need to take a break...

"What? Scared?"

Princess Hailing sneered, "Do you know that you've been here so long that the news has already reached His Majesty?"

"No matter who you are..."

"There is only one way out: death!"

Wei Shuyu suddenly awoke with a start.

The reason why Princess Hailing kept striking the wooden fish and ignored him was...

They're just stalling for time!

The longer he stayed there, the more suspicious Li Shimin became.

Even without mentioning that she was Li Shimin's woman, the title of Princess Consort of Li Yuanji alone was enough to arouse Li Shimin's suspicion!

No one can bear the suspicion of an emperor!

Sirius was the only star that Lao Wei managed to save himself by using all his connections.

One can only imagine how terrifying emperors were!
