Chapter 136: The Knife That Does Not Distinguish Between Good and Evil



Prime Minister Hua's face turned pale. Although Hua Yuanzhao's previous visit to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was not very pleasant, it was the Duke of Zhenguo's wife who asked for it herself after all.

If a woman invites a young lady from another family to stay at her home for a while and has a legitimate reason, then there is naturally nothing wrong with that.

But Gu Changsu is a man. If this gets out, wouldn't people say he's fawning on his superiors? In order to please the Third Prince, he's eager to send his daughter to him?

"Hmm?" Gu Changsu's voice dropped and his tone became dangerous.

Prime Minister Hua sighed helplessly: "Zhao'er, why don't you pack your things and go back to the palace with His Highness."

"But..." Princess Lin'an frowned and wanted to speak, but Hua Yuanzhao pulled her back by the collar.

"Yes, father." Hua Yuanzhao responded.

Anyway, with something like this happening, there would be chaos at home, so she might as well go out and find some peace and quiet, to prevent Aunt Su from getting desperate and attacking her.

There is also the shop given to her by Princess Changle, which she has not visited yet. Now is a perfect opportunity.

Old Madam Hua looked at the father and daughter coldly. She seemed to want to say something but stopped herself several times, and finally just let out a long sigh.

In the final analysis, it is better for Zhao'er to be the main wife. If this incident can help the two of them get along well and Zhao'er's position as the main wife can be regained, it will not be a loss.

Anyway, Zhao'er already has such a reputation, so let her be a doctor.

Everyone present had their own thoughts, and they actually reached a strange balance.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Hua Yuanzhao politely said goodbye and slipped out early under the pretext of packing up his things.

Princess Lin'an looked back reluctantly, muttering softly, "Sister Hua, are you just leaving like this? Aren't you afraid that they will play some shady tricks?"

Hua Yuanzhao laughed dryly: "If you want to accuse someone of something, you can always find a pretext. If they just wanted me to take the blame, they wouldn't have given me a chance to speak."

She understood this from the moment she came into this world.

The maid Hongying hid at the door and watched a few people come out before running over mysteriously.

"Princess, Miss Hua."

"What's wrong?" Princess Lin'an hurriedly pulled her.

"The matter has been exposed. Now it is being rumored everywhere that the second young lady of the Hua family cannot get the love she wants, so she deliberately seduces someone to give herself to him!" Hongying reported hurriedly.

Hua Yuanzhao frowned. Even though she had specially invited people over, they were Princess Changle and others.

These people are headed by Princess Changle, and Princess Changle has a vested interest in Gu Changsu. How could she publicize this matter so widely?

"Well done." Princess Lin'an smiled with glee.

That bitch deserved it. Who told her to bully Sister Hua?

Hua Yuanzhao was so frightened that his scalp went numb. He lowered his voice and asked, "Did you send someone to spread the news?"

Princess Lin'an looked up at her, her face full of innocence and simplicity: "Shouldn't it be spread out? When other young ladies got into trouble before, Hua Yuanshan told me to make a big deal about it, and it would be best if everyone knew about it."

Hua Yuanshan chuckled, hugged Hua Yuanzhao's arm and said, "She also said that forcing a marriage this way will never fail! Doesn't she want to marry into the royal family? Now she can get her wish!"

Hongying couldn't bear to look at it, and continued, "Princess Changle is so angry that she has gone to the palace to find Concubine Xian!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, she's already grown up, why does she still go to her mother to complain when she's angry?" Princess Lin'an said, smacking her lips.

Hua Yuanzhao pursed his lips. That virtuous concubine was an absolute smiling tiger. She appeared gentle on the surface, but in fact, she was used to using insidious means.

If this matter is brought to the attention of Concubine Xian, I'm afraid that even if Hua Yuanshan can marry Gu Changsu, she will not end up well.

"Sister Hua, why do you look so unhappy?" Princess Lin'an blinked and looked at her: "After Hua Yuanshan taught me to do this before, I laughed so happily!"

Hua Yuanzhao sighed softly and raised his hand to touch Princess Lin'an's head.

If someone had guided this child onto the right path, she wouldn't have become like this.

"You..." Hua Yuanzhao considered his words and sighed, "Does anyone else know about what you did?"

Princess Lin'an quickly shook her head, saying that she was very well behaved and kept her mouth shut.

"Hua Yuanshan said this is called doing good deeds without leaving a name." Princess Lin'an said with a smile: "I don't need her to thank me this time."

"In the future, don't do this kind of thing easily unless it is to protect yourself, okay?" Hua Yuanzhao asked softly.

After all, this era is special. She cannot teach Princess Lin'an to be an obedient sheep. She only hopes that she will not show her claws and hurt others at will.

Princess Lin'an seemed to understand, but she looked up at her for a long time and then suddenly smiled: "Sister Hua, you are so cute."

Not only did he not use such a good sword of hers, but he even wanted to put it in a scabbard.

"I like you." Princess Lin'an rubbed her arm and said eagerly, "Shall I go to the Third Prince's Palace with you?"

"Princess, the lady told you to go back home." Hongying advised pitifully, "The carriage is already waiting outside the Prime Minister's residence."

Hua Yuanzhao watched helplessly as Princess Lin'an let out a long howl and was forcibly dragged away by Hongying.

"This Princess Lin'an is quite cute." Fuling said blankly.

Hua Yuanzhao shuddered and his eyes twitched.

Cute? He's just a naughty kid with no sense of right and wrong!

She didn't have much to pack in the Hua family, so she just pretended to take two pieces of clothing and carried a medicine box.

The master and servant followed Gu Changsu into the palace, and were then led by the housekeeper to the door of the woodshed.

The housekeeper Song Fu said respectfully, "Miss Hua, please."

Fuling looked at the dilapidated house in front of her, her eyes red with anxiety: "When he came in just now, the Third Prince clearly said that he would treat our young lady well! How could you bring my young lady to the woodshed!"

Song Fu found this statement funny. He said impatiently, "Isn't this a good treat? Why does Miss Hua look down on the Third Prince's Mansion?"

When this big pot was put on, Fuling was immediately silenced.

"But, but..."

"Butler, I have a headache." Hua Yuanzhao said suddenly, frowning and pretending to be in pain.

"You know, the Third Prince asked me to come here to treat him." Hua Yuanzhao smiled gently, "But look at my memory. I forget things when I have a headache. I actually missed a herb in the prescription I gave to the Prince."

Song Fu narrowed his eyes and asked nervously, "What medicinal herbs?"

"Oh, this room is leaking everywhere. I really can't remember it..." Hua Yuanzhao pretended to say, "If I could see the Third Prince, maybe it would be better."

After a slight pause, she smiled and said, "If there is a problem with this prescription, can you afford to take the blame?"

Song Fu squinted his eyes and looked at her for a while, then suddenly sneered with disdain.

He has seen this kind of trick at least eight out of ten times. Do they really think he is a freeloader?

Song Fu coughed lightly and suddenly waved his hand and made a gesture.

The servant standing behind him suddenly stepped forward, dragged Fuling over and held her in his palm in the blink of an eye.

"Now, maybe Miss Hua remembers it?" Song Fu asked disdainfully.
