Chapter 487: Flowers Speak for Themselves, Quiet and Elegant (3)
Huo Jingya ran back to the room and washed her hands several times, her eyes frighteningly cold.
"Qi Bai, how long will it take for the people to arrive?"
"tomorrow."
Tomorrow, okay, then she won’t sleep tonight!
Huo Jingya found the wooden sculpture she received on her birthday, her eyes filled with extreme hatred.
"They've got you dirty."
"You are the last thing he left me."
"I want them to be buried with you."
After saying that, she sprinkled lamp oil on the puppet and lit it.
In the next few days, Huo Jingya occasionally went into the palace, and spent the rest of the time with Pei Wushuang.
Until the day before the wedding, Pei Wushuang brought a carved puppet.
"Princess, Miss Yuxiang told me that you like wood carving, so I tried to learn it, but I'm not very good..."
He handed it over shyly, his fingers covered in bloody scratches.
Huo Jingya looked at the rough wood carving and smiled meaningfully.
"Pei Wushuang, you've been trained as a substitute for someone else since you were little. Has this mask already been welded onto you?"
"Princess?"
"I'm not going to play games with you anymore. Your father has been arrested now."
The wood carving fell to the ground.
That face remains as innocent as ever.
A guard came forward and took him away. He just looked at Huo Jingya with clear and pure eyes.
But Huo Jingya knew that this was only superficial.
He could put on such a kind face and stab an ignorant child to death with one knife.
"Princess, what are you talking about? Why did you arrest my father?"
"What did you say?" Huo Jingya whipped over, "I hate seeing you with that face!
Who do you think my brother is? The secret guards had been keeping an eye on you a month before you were summoned to the palace!"
So early!
They thought they would be stared at only after entering the capital!
"You dare to cast a love curse on me, and even on a wood carving! You're courting death!"
Huo Jingya gritted her teeth and whipped the man again and again.
The emperor's brother told her this before the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.
She fell in love with Pei Wushuang at first sight at the banquet.
It is said that Peizhou Mu is Yan Zhinan's man, and he needs to keep him in the capital temporarily to collect evidence.
And letting his son marry Huo Jingya was exactly Pei Lin's plan.
Pei Wushuang is the substitute trained by Yan Zhinan for Hua Wuyan, and he is just in time to be used.
How could Huo Jingya not agree?
She doesn't have that kind of calculating brain, so she just listens to her elder brother in everything!
But after meeting Pei Wushuang, she began to doubt her dream at night.
Fortunately, Qi Bai told her about the lovesickness spell, otherwise after a month, her mind would really be full of Pei Wushuang!
After realizing that he was cursed, he went to ask Taoist Master Liu to remove the curse.
Pei Wushuang's expression finally changed.
"You actually knew... I thought you wouldn't let me touch you until the right time..."
"How do you know everything..."
It's ridiculous that my father planned so much. First, he had him marry the powerful eldest princess, then slowly enter the capital and contact the old ministers...
But nothing even started, and it ended.
So scary!
My father has been working diligently as a neutral party for decades, and no one knows that he is loyal to the Grand Princess.
Even if his appearance might arouse suspicion for a while, he is indeed his father's son and has grown up in Dingzhou for eighteen years. There would be no problem for anyone to investigate, so why would he be suspected?
What kind of person is the new emperor?
"Pei Wushuang, you're quite pitiful. Your life has been dictated to you since you were a child, but this was your father's choice, so you can't blame others.
Take him away and hand him over to my brother!"
She didn't care about the rest.
She was going to kill that evil Taoist who specialized in studying harmful curses! Even after his tendons were cut, he could still draw with his feet, and even use the method of soaking wood carvings to put her under the curse.
So, Huo Jingya was wrong from the beginning. The wood carving was not sent by Xiaoyu at all.
From now on, there will be no more wood carvings sent to me...
She had misunderstood what she had heard outside the tent.
No birthday gift.
What did Xiaoyu say to Fourth Sister-in-law at that time?
She didn't want to escape anymore.
She wants to get to the bottom of it.
She can accept any truth, no matter how cruel it is.
Stop treating some disgusting things as him.
He is irreplaceable.
Because the eldest princess was getting married, Sang Ning returned to Beijing.
Huo Jingya went to the Xiaoyao Palace with a determined and fearless look on her face.
"Fourth sister-in-law, I want to know what Xiaoyu said to you that day. I want to know whether he is dead or alive."
"Okay, if you want to know, I'll tell you."
On that day, Hua Buyan learned his identity and realized that the Grand Princess would not stop as long as he was alive.
He asked Lu Xun a lot of questions, and Lu Xun, thinking that victory was certain, did not hide anything.
Given the situation at that time, there was really no possibility of them failing.
Even if she fails, the Grand Princess can escape unscathed.
During the years when she trained the left and right wing armies, she also secretly trained a team that only obeyed her orders, as well as Hua Buyan's substitute.
However, Lu Xun did not reveal the identities of those people, so Xiaoyu, who was listening quietly on the side, did not know.
Xiaoyu told Sang Ning, and later Sang Ning told Huo Qingchuan.
Huo Qingchuan has been investigating that group of people.
When they found out that Pei Wushuang and Hua Buyan were similar, they started to keep an eye on them.
Pei Lin and the people behind him have now been identified.
Besides, at that time, Hua Buyan ate the meal brought by Xiaoyu, went indoors to rest for a while, and then came out wearing a rough wedding dress. He asked Xiaoyu to bring some fruits.
Then he called Lu Xun and the guards outside in and said he had something to tell them.
Before Xiaoyu even reached the kitchen, Yufuyuan exploded.
"Xiao Yu said that the three-story building collapsed and no one came out. That was the thunder bomb that Hua Buyan hid under the bed a long time ago. He seemed to think he would definitely need it."
Tears kept welling up in Huo Jingya's eyes, but she kept her eyes open and the tears did not fall.
"So, what's with the birthday present?" she asked in a choked voice, as if she couldn't breathe.
"Hua Buyan once told Xiaoyu to look for something under the third willow tree by the river where you guys often played, and Xiaoyu found it.
Inside was a box of puppets, all of which were carved of you, and a letter saying that they were the birthday gifts he promised you, one for each year. He had already carved twenty-three, and if anything happened to him, Xiaoyu would give them to you every year from now on.
"But Xiaoyu didn't send it!" Huo Jingya suddenly raised her voice, as if accusing.
The tears in my eyes filled up and overflowed, rolling down like crystal balls.
Sang Ning's eyes turned into one of pity.
"Yes, it's impossible to send it."
"When Xiaoyu ran back to the Hua Mansion, Prince Hua had already ordered his men to dig everyone out.
You know, there's no difference at all.
Xiaoyu thought of the bottom of the bed. He knew that there was a newly carved puppet by his master.
He found it, but he also found a letter Hua Buyan had just written."
Huo Jingya held her breath.
"He said that everything about him should be left alone and all those puppets should be burned. He said that he was disheartened and would travel around the world and never return to Beijing.
He said those things would only prolong the time it takes for you to forget him.”
