The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Hua Wu Ke did not beat around the bush and made no secret of the fact that he knew about his relationship with the old lady.

"Write a letter to the Hua family and tell the old lady that you got the silver."

Hearing Hua Wu Ke say this, Hua Yu Zhong's pupils widened and he looked at Hua Wu Ke in disbelief.

The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he stammered:

"You...what do you mean? I...I don't know what you are talking about!"

Seeing that Hua Yuzhong was still struggling, Hua Wuke told him to give up.

"Hua Jingqian is your blood, and this princess already knows about this. Even without your cooperation, this princess will find evidence to expose the ugly things the old lady did."

Hearing this, Hua Yuzhong wanted to deny it eagerly, but Hua Wuke didn't give him a chance and said directly:

"Now, this princess just wants to give you a chance because you have worked hard for the mansion for many years."

"If you know what's best for you, I will plead for you in front of my grandfather. If you don't know what's good for you..."

Having said this, Hua Wu Ke paused, then threatened slowly:

"Then you can only spend the rest of your life in this woodshed, unable to live or die!"

He thought that he had just been discovered stealing property, and that as long as he begged for mercy from his master a few more times, he could still have a chance to survive.

I didn't expect that even my biggest secret would be discovered.

Hua Yuzhong, whose will had been worn out in the past few days, gave up hiding the secret from the old lady after a slight struggle after hearing Hua Wuke's threats and inducements.

Anyway, there was no way to expect Hua Jingqian to inherit the master's property and take care of him in his old age, so why would he risk himself for that mother and daughter?

Hua Yuzhong understood and quickly agreed to write a letter to contact the old lady.

When the letter was delivered to the Hua Mansion, the old lady came impatiently.

The old lady had no intention of entering the Duke Dingguo's Mansion after hitting a wall with Hua Zhukong last time and making a very ugly scene.

She thought Hua Yuzhong would be waiting for her outside the house, but she didn't see anyone.

After asking the doorman, I found out that Hua Yuzhong had not left the house today and was still in the house.

There was no other way, the old lady had to go in under the pretext of looking for Hua Zhukong.

As soon as I entered the mansion, I saw Hua Yuzhong.

The silver that she had been longing for was right in front of her. The old lady suppressed her dissatisfaction with not seeing him outside the mansion, stepped forward and said in a low voice:

"Where's the silver? Where's the jewellery?"

Hua Yuzhong looked at her hesitantly for a long while, and only spoke when the old lady showed an expression of impatience and urged him:

"follow me."

She was so anxious for money that she didn't notice that there was something wrong with Hua Yuzhong's expression and eyes, and she followed him eagerly.

The road that Hua Yuzhong took her on was both familiar and unfamiliar to the old lady.

She seldom walked this road, but she secretly hoped to walk it day and night.

This is the road to Xuerong Hall.

The old lady felt something was wrong.

"You want to go to Huazhukongyuan? What are you going to do?"

Hua Yuzhong didn't explain, but just asked her to follow.

The old lady's steps became a little hesitant, but for the sake of gold, silver and jewelry, she still followed.

After all, Hua Yuzhong doesn't dare to report himself to Hua Zhukong, so what is there to be afraid of?

In this way, the old lady followed Hua Yuzhong all the way into Xuerong Hall. As soon as they entered the house, Hua Yuzhong knelt down in front of Hua Zhukong without saying a word.

The old lady was already startled by his sudden action. She looked up and found that not only Huazhukong was present today, but also all the people from the main house were present.

She met Hua Zhukong's gaze and asked nervously.

"Hey, what are you trying to do?"

Could it be that her collusion with Hua Yuzhong to steal Duke Dingguo’s money was really discovered?

Looking at Hua Yuzhong kneeling on the ground, the old lady became more and more certain of this guess.

She felt guilty at first and didn't dare to look Hua Zhukong in the eye. Then she straightened her back and said dissatisfiedly:

"Why? Madam, I have been managing this huge mansion for so many years. What's the problem if I just want a few silver coins?"

"You owe me this!"

Everyone in the room stared at her coldly, and no one spoke to respond to her.

Seeing this, she became more confident:

"The things in this mansion should belong to Qian'er and me half! I just want to take back what I deserve!"

As he spoke, he seemed to have forgotten that the hand he extended was touching something that belonged to the eldest wife.

Hearing these shameless words, Hua Zhukong felt that he had really gone mad at the time. How blind was he to mistake such a person for his deceased wife!

The old lady wanted to say something but was interrupted by Hua Wu Ke.

"I asked you to come here today because I want you to meet a few people."

The old lady looked at her with a frown.

"who?"

Hua Wu Ke signaled the two people who had been waiting behind the screen to come out.

"It's them. Have you ever seen them, old lady?"

Both of them were old women, and they looked even older than the old lady, and they no longer looked like they were in their youth.

The old lady looked at the two plain-dressed women with a haughty look, then turned away and said:

"never seen it."

Hua Wu Ke pretended to be puzzled and said:

"Oh? But these two old ladies said they knew you before. Are they lying?"

When the two heard this, they immediately waved their hands and said in panic:

"My Lord, I am not lying."

After that, she looked at the old lady again and said to her:

"Old lady, do you really not remember me? When you gave birth to the young master, it was me who delivered you. And my sister was the one who treated you during your pregnancy!"

After hearing her words, the old lady immediately looked at them in horror.

"You, didn't you leave the capital? Why are you here?"

After saying that, she quickly reacted and immediately changed her words:

"You got the wrong person! I don't know you!"

The old woman thought that she really didn't remember her, and continued:

"How could I have made a mistake? You were born a month premature, and the baby was so weak that he couldn't even cry. It was only after I patted him that he started to cry..."

The old lady waved her hand fiercely and interrupted her:

"You're talking nonsense! I'm Qian'er, born full term!"

Seeing that the old lady was still denying, the old lady's sister also added:

"Yes. It is impossible for me to recognize the wrong person."

"Old lady, have you forgotten? When I was treating you, you asked me to tell others that the baby was one month older, and then you asked me to prescribe medicine for you, which led to your premature birth of the son."

This was the first time the old woman had encountered such a request. After all, inducing childbirth was risky.

But considering that the money was large, she agreed.

So she was really impressed by the old lady, but she didn't expect that she had forgotten about it.

"How could you not remember?"

When the old lady heard what they said, she became so panicked that her face turned pale.
