"My Lord, Princess, now that things have come to an end, there is nothing else that requires my help. I would like to say goodbye and leave."
Gu Yunsheng's sudden words left Prince Kang and his wife somewhat unresponsive.
"Ren'er, you want to leave the capital? But where are you going after you leave?"
Ye Peizhu frowned slightly, her eyes filled with worry.
"Maybe I'll continue traveling around the world."
Gu Yunsheng smiled, and her smile showed the relief that everything was over.
"My Lord, Princess, I actually deceived you at the beginning.
I always knew who my enemies were.
My enemy is Prince Duan, and he is also my biological father."
When Prince Kang and his wife and Song Jiujiu heard this, the three of them were shocked.
As Gu Yunsheng slowly narrated the story, they also learned what happened that year.
"My mother was a prostitute. When Prince Duan had a relationship with her, he somehow found out that my mother was a member of the Gu Sect.
Prince Duan holds a grudge against you, Prince Kang, but for the time being he has no way to deal with you.
After he found out that my mother was a member of the Gu Sect, he used this as a handle to threaten my mother to put a Gu on you.
But my mother refused. Even though she became a prostitute, she was determined not to use witchcraft to harm innocent people.
But as luck would have it, my mother became pregnant with me. When Prince Duan found out, he told my mother that as long as she put a poison on you, Your Highness, he would let my mother live in Prince Duan's mansion and provide a home for me before I was born.
My mother agreed for my sake.
At that time, Liu Niang, who was a prostitute like my mother, had already entered the general's mansion as a concubine.
After my mother knew that General Ye was your father-in-law, she tried to contact Liu Niang and asked her to help cast the curse.
Unfortunately, Liu Niang was staying in the general's mansion at that time and could not be contacted at all.
Later, a foreigner named Gu Xun became my mother's guest. She put a poison on Gu Xun and asked him to find Liu Niang and ask Liu Niang to put the poison on you, Your Highness.
Who knew that this poisonous insect would enter your body, Princess.
My mother didn't know about this, but she knew that the curse was successful, so she waited for Prince Duan to come to her and fulfill his promise.
But who knew that Prince Duan would change his mind.
Not only did he fail to fulfill his promise to bring my mother into Prince Duan's Mansion, he also sent people to hunt down my mother!
Faced with being hunted, my mother had no choice but to run away, and Gu Xun happened to come back to find my mother.
My mother removed the poison from him and wanted to let him leave, but Gu Xun helped my mother escape.
When she was about to leave, my mother could only reluctantly give Prince Duan a small poison.
They left the capital and went to a village to hide their identities, hoping to be reborn and start a new life.
It’s just that the small village is xenophobic and doesn’t like foreigners.
They pretended to be enthusiastic about letting us stay, but in the dead of night, they drugged Gu Xun, killed him, and pushed his body off the cliff.
The next day, my mother woke up and found that Gu Xun was missing. She asked the villagers, but they lied to her and said that Gu Xun had left on his own.
My mother believed it, but that night, the villagers planned to drug my mother.
Fortunately, my mother was alert and discovered it before I inhaled the drug. She climbed out the window and hid outside.
I also learned the truth about Gu Xun's death from the villagers.
My mother was afraid that she and I, who were still in her womb, would be killed by the villagers, so she ran away overnight.
My mother wanted to report Gu Xun to the authorities, but she found that the officials there would not seek justice for a foreigner.
There was no other way, so my mother had to give up. She built a cenotaph for Gu Xun, left there, and continued to look for a place to settle down.
Later, I was born, and my mother and I depended on each other. Although our life was hard, it was also warm.
But the good times didn't last long. My mother fell ill. Before her condition worsened, she taught me all the witchcraft she knew and told me about my life experience and everything.
Before she died, she told me to return to the capital to seek revenge on Prince Duan and to cure the poison and forgive your sins!"
Speaking of this, Gu Yunsheng's eyes turned red and filled with tears.
She sniffed and said, "After my mother passed away, I practiced witchcraft diligently while heading towards the capital.
Unexpectedly, I met Young Master Song on the road. When I learned that he was going back to the capital, I thought of taking advantage of him and coming to the capital with him.
It was not until I got off the carriage and saw the three characters "Kang Wang Fu" written on the plaque that I understood the identity of Mr. Song and the relationship between us..."
King Kang and his wife knew what happened next without Gu Yunsheng telling them.
"Now that Prince Duan is dead, I have also cured the poisonous insect that my mother had planted on me. I have fulfilled my mother's last wish, and it is time for me to leave.
Your Highness and Princess, thank you for taking care of me these days. In the future, if you need my witchcraft, you can send me a letter by carrier pigeon at any time.
There are some dead poisonous insects in here. When the time comes, let the pigeons smell them and they will be able to find me.
There is also a poisonous insect inside this that can protect you. The method is the same as last time. When you encounter danger, just unplug it and sprinkle it on the other party."
Gu Yunsheng stood up and handed Ye Peizhu two small porcelain bottles.
Ye Peizhu took the small porcelain bottle, reached out to hold Gu Yunsheng, and looked at her with heartache.
"Ren'er, I'm sorry for wronging you over the years.
I know that your background makes you feel ashamed, but now, you are closer to us.
You are our niece, and Prince Kang's Mansion will always be your home.
If you want to leave, we won't stop you.
We only hope that you can come back home more often in the future."
