The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

The old lady's eyes rolled, her expression became sad, and her voice became lower and not as aggressive as before.

"Is prison a good place? The food is rotten, I don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes, and I have to be tortured. I don't know if I can live to see the day I'm released."

Although Hua Jingqian was imprisoned, the prison cell was busy interrogating Xu Shangming these days and it was not his turn yet, so how could he be punished?

The old lady also stuffed in a lot of silver and asked the jailer to help her put on some clothes. Although her life was not as good as outside, it was much better than other prisoners.

It’s no wonder that the old lady cursed Hua Jingqian in order to get the steward to find some money.

"How could you be so harsh! Did you bring some money to make arrangements?"

"Of course I went and gave away all my belongings. The jailer was very cruel! If I hadn't taken care of it from time to time, my Qian'er would have continued to suffer."

"But our Hua Mansion is not like the Duke Dingguo Mansion, where can we get the money to keep paying for it?"

After saying that, she looked at the steward.

"Since you care about Qian'er, you should give him some money so that he can live a better life!"

The chief steward never married in his life, so naturally he was extremely concerned about Hua Jingqian, his only bloodline.

"Wait here, I will give you all the money I have saved!"

The old lady almost couldn't hold back her voice when she heard this. She said with disdain:

"How much money do you get as a servant? With that little money, when will Qian'er be able to get out? Besides, if Hua Zhukong and the others hadn't stood by and watched us die, would we have to spend this money?"

"Of course the money has to be paid by the Duke Dingguo's Mansion!"

The chief steward was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said:

"It's different now. When the old master and the young master were at the border, I naturally had a way to send the things in this mansion to your courtyard. But now they are back, and there are so many masters watching, I can't do it!"

The old lady wiped her tears and began to cry:

“Wow… the parents are useless. They can’t even save their son, their only son! How are they going to live in the future?”

After hearing these words, the steward felt very upset. As a father, he couldn't even save his only son. He was truly unworthy of being a father!

"Okay! I will definitely find a way to send the money to you. Wait for my news!"

Afterwards, the steward hurried back to the mansion, and Qingzhu also returned to Jiaming Hall to report the matter to Hua Wuke.

Now that Hua Jingqian is no longer a member of the Hua family, they can be more determined to deal with him, but it will be shameful if this matter gets out, and I don’t know if my grandfather can bear it.

After listening to Qingzhu's description, Hua Wuke felt a little complicated.

"Pack up and go to Prince An's Mansion."

In Prince An's mansion, Ye Buhuo was looking at the news about Xiao Liqiu brought back by the spy.

"My Lord, Miss Hua San is here."

"Come in."

As soon as Hua Wu Ke pushed the door open, he was met with Ye Buhuo's gaze with a faint smile.

Seeing Hua Wuke walking in slowly, Ye Buhuo signaled Ye Yi to step back, then stood up and held Hua Wuke's hand.

Ever since Hua Zhukong heard the news of Hua Jingqian's accident, Hua Wuke has been staying with him in the mansion for the past few days out of fear that his grandfather would be angry.

At this time, Ye Buhuo came to disturb the family happiness of the grandparents and grandson, so the two had not seen each other for several days.

Seeing Hua Wuke’s sudden visit, Ye Buhuo’s mood, which had been silent for a few days, suddenly became cheerful.

"Didn't you say you would stay with Master in the mansion for the next few days? Why did you come here suddenly?"

"Hua Jingqian may not be Grandfather's son."

Although it can be confirmed from what the old lady and the steward said that Hua Jingqian and Hua Zhukong have no relationship, there is no definite evidence, so Hua Wuke still did not say too much.

"How did Sui Sui know about this?"

"The old lady came to the mansion today."

Hua Wu Ke told him about the old lady's disturbance and also described to Qing Zhu the conversation between the two that he had secretly witnessed.

I guess Hua Wu Ke was shocked by the news and didn't know what to do for a while, so he came to find him.

"We still need evidence to make the old lady admit this in front of the master."

Hua Wu Ke nodded miserably.

"That's why I decided not to tell my grandfather and the others yet. What if the old lady refuses to admit it and bites me back, it will make my grandfather upset for no reason."

Ye Buhuo gently rubbed her hair and said comfortingly:

"Don't worry. I'll send someone to check the doctors and midwives she came into contact with during her pregnancy and childbirth. I'll definitely find evidence."

Hua Wu Ke returned to the capital. He was already a little upset because he had not yet brought Ye Chuji down, and he really didn't want to investigate the matter himself.

Seeing Ye Buhuo taking the initiative to take over this task, she was happy to have some free time.

"Okay, then I'll rely on you, my Lord!"

"Well, is there a reward if it's done? Your Highness?"

Hua Wu Ke thought about it, what do women in love give men? It seems that they usually give men embroidered purses by themselves.

But she won’t!

"What reward do you want?"

Hua Wu Ke prayed silently in his heart, hoping it wasn't a purse handkerchief or something like that!

"This king wants to..."

As Ye Buhuo spoke, he bent lower and lower, so that their faces were less than an inch apart.

"...I want my princess to marry me soon. Is the princess willing to reward me?"

Looking at the handsome face with a smile in front of him, Hua Wu Ke couldn't help but his ears turned red.

She pushed Ye Buhuo in embarrassment and said proudly:

"It's not that easy to get a princess. I'll see how you perform."

Ye Buhuo raised his eyebrows:

"I will not let the princess down."

After amusing Hua Wuke, Ye Buhuo handed the letter he had just read to Hua Wuke.

I took the letter and there were only a few words on it.

"Master Xiao has arrived in the north safely and has found Bufeng Town. I wonder if Master Xiao can find Bufeng Village and Dongshantou smoothly."

"Does Sui Sui still remember Zhao Sen and Zhao Lin?"

Hua Wu Ke thought about it.

"I have some impression that he is the head of the Fengzhai. What's wrong?"

"I arranged for him to meet Lord Xiao, so that Lord Xiao would notice the strange wind measles in Bufeng Town and Bufeng Village. By then, Lord Xiao would naturally associate some clues with it."

The urticaria in Bufeng Town was caused by the wastewater from the iron smelting in Dongshantou that polluted the water source of Bufeng Village. People in Bufeng Town were very susceptible to urticaria because they drank too much of the wastewater.

As long as we figure out how the water source was polluted, it would not be difficult to discover that Dongshantou was illegally mining iron ore.

"That's great. We can also save the people of Bufeng Town from continuing to suffer from rubella."

The two hadn't seen each other for a few days. Sometimes they talked about business, sometimes they talked about interesting things, as if they had endless things to talk about.

But Hua Wu Ke was still worried about her grandfather who had been mad at the old lady today. Seeing that it was getting late, she had to get up and leave.

"I wonder if drinking the tranquilizing soup will be any good for Grandfather. I have to go back and check it out."
