"The Emperor has been searching for the will for years, but has no clues."
The secret guard reported his findings.
Ying Xixi thought for a while after hearing this, "What about the eunuch who served the late emperor back then? And before the late emperor passed away, he must have called in his trusted ministers to explain things, right?
Is it still possible to find out who they are now?"
Secret Guard: "Madam, I have investigated and found that the eunuch has passed away. The late emperor passed away in the middle of the night, very suddenly, and there was no time to call the officials in.
The clues ended here. The current emperor has been investigating for nearly twenty years but has still not been able to find the whereabouts of the will."
"The will might be in someone's hands, but everyone thought the Third Prince was dead, so there was no need to bring it out.
If you want to know who has the will, or who knows where it is hidden, you probably have to let that person know that the third prince is not dead.
The current emperor has been in this position for so many years, but he has not done much for the people or the country. There must be people who dislike him.
It’s just that those people lack a legitimate opportunity, so let’s give them a chance and see if they will take action.”
Ying Xixi slowly expressed her thoughts.
Zhao Yuxiao and the secret guard nodded repeatedly after listening.
"Xixi, what you said makes sense, so let's do as you say."
Zhao Yuxiao's gaze towards Ying Xixi became increasingly fiery.
How come his young wife is so smart?
The next day, a rumor spread in the capital.
"Hey, hey, hey, have you heard? I heard that the third prince is still alive!"
"Alive?! Wasn't it said that the Third Prince was burned to death in the palace? How could he still be alive?"
"I heard that someone else was burned to death that year, and the Third Prince was rescued!"
"If the Third Prince were still alive, he would be in his twenties now.
Why didn't this news come out earlier or later, but now it has to be revealed that the Third Prince is still alive?"
"What you said, can't it be that the Third Prince only knows his life experience now?
Anyway, it’s good that the Third Prince is alive. Back then, the Third Prince showed extraordinary talent at a young age. If it weren’t for that fire…”
This person didn't say what came next, but everyone can probably guess what it was.
If the third prince had not "died" that year, the person sitting on the throne now would not be this person.
The third prince becoming the new emperor is what everyone wants!
"If the Third Prince is still alive, where is he? Who is he? Have we heard of him?"
“I heard he’s in the capital, but I don’t know who it is.
I think the Third Prince wouldn't dare reveal who he belongs to easily, otherwise, he might be killed!"
"A fatal disaster? Who is this..."
"Who else could it be? That guy."
"How dare you say that? Keep your voice down. Anyway, these are not things that ordinary people like us can discuss or participate in. Just disperse, disperse."
The people did not dare to make any comments, but they talked even more enthusiastically.
However, within the morning, the news that the third prince who was burned to death that year was actually still alive had spread throughout the capital.
Ying Xixi asked the secret guards to keep an eye on the emperor's movements, perhaps they could find out who was holding the imperial edict or who knew the location of the imperial edict.
After all, judging from the emperor's murderous intention towards Zhao Yuxiao, he absolutely wants to eliminate all factors that may affect his throne.
The first thing to be affected is the will!
Ying Xixi guessed correctly. The secret guards sent by the emperor were keeping an eye on all officials inside and outside the palace, including the eunuchs.
After watching for a few days, we finally got a clue. The old tutor, who rarely left the mansion, started going out more often.
He seemed to be looking for something. He would go out for a walk every morning, go to the teahouse to listen to people's discussions, and return home at dusk.
This went on for a few days, and the old tutor attracted the attention of the emperor's secret guards and Zhao Yuxiao's secret guards.
Zhao Yuxiao's secret guard hurried back to report. When Zhao Yuxiao heard the three words "Old Tutor", his head began to hurt.
"Hurry up and ask the court doctor to come and take a look."
Ying Xixi gave the order, and soon the court doctor arrived.
The court doctor examined Zhao Yuxiao and said, "Madam, the general has been stimulated and is beginning to recall forgotten memories.
If it goes smoothly, it might be easier to recall after being stimulated, but it will still hurt your brain to some extent.
I'd better give the general acupuncture to alleviate the damage."
"Excuse me, doctor."
While the court doctor was giving Zhao Yuxiao acupuncture, Ying Xixi came to the door and whispered to the secret guard what to do next.
With the successful experiences from previous times, Ying Xixi is now much bolder in making decisions.
A few days later, the old tutor was hit by a mad horse while walking on the street. It was too late to send him to the hospital, and he died.
When the emperor heard the news, he laughed out loud, "God is really helping me! I had always suspected that the old tutor might know about the existence of the will. It's just right that he died, so I don't have to take any action."
But I wonder if anyone else in the Taifu Mansion knows about the existence of the will."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, and the idea of eliminating all dangerous factors emerged in his mind.
But after thinking about it, he temporarily gave up the idea.
"Forget it, let's keep an eye on the people in the Taifu Mansion first. If they make any other moves, we'll find a way to get rid of them!
Only the dead can keep secrets!"
"yes."
The old tutor, who everyone thought was dead, was now in the general's mansion.
The old tutor looked at Zhao Yuxiao who was sitting in front of him in a daze.
"General, so you are the Third Prince?"
Zhao Yuxiao still hasn't recovered his memory before the age of five, and he even has unbearable headaches these days.
It was Ying Xixi who asked the system for pills, which finally relieved Zhao Yuxiao's headache.
But strangely, the pills in the system mall that can restore the memory of people with amnesia have no effect on Zhao Yuxiao at all.
Because it didn't work, the system didn't deduct Ying Xixi's points.
Ying Xixi guessed that perhaps the lost memories were what Zhao Yuxiao subconsciously wanted to forget.
Zhao Yuxiao looked bewildered, "If Prince Rui didn't lie to Prince Qi, then that should be the case.
Master Taifu, to be honest, I have forgotten all my memories of that year and before.
I don’t know who I am. Prince Rui and Prince Qi told me that I was the third prince and their third uncle.
Only then did I realize that this might be my origin story.”
The old tutor looked at Zhao Yuxiao's appearance and couldn't find any trace of his childhood appearance.
But when he saw Zhao Yuxiao, he did feel a sense of familiarity.
"General, I remember the Third Prince had a birthmark on the sole of his foot. I wonder if you have it too?"
