The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Finally, a maid ran in with a bracelet:

"Report to the old lady, the young lady's jewelry was found by the well."

Sun Ruhui snatched the jewelry away fiercely: "It's Yue'er's, this is Yue'er's!"

Sun Ruhui discovered this thing last night.

She picked it up, touched it again and again, looked at it again and again, and reluctantly put the bracelet back, fearing that Hua Jingqian would discover that she had been there.

"Quick! Get some people to salvage it."

When the old lady heard that the bracelet was found by the well, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

After a while, Hua Fuyue was fished out.

After soaking for a night, it has become unrecognizable.

Sun Ruhui threw herself on Hua Fuyue, hugged her and cried loudly: "Yue'er, my Yue'er, why are you so miserable?"

When the old lady saw her granddaughter's body, her head buzzed.

His eyes rolled back and he fell on his back.

When Hua Jingqian returned home from court, the old lady slowly woke up.

The doctor said that the old lady's emotions fluctuated too much and she was too sad, which hurt her body. She needed to take medicine to recuperate.

But the old lady refused to swallow the medicine that was put in her mouth. She just wanted to go to the mourning hall to see her granddaughter again.

"Mother, please drink the medicine first." Hua Jingqian knelt beside her and persuaded her.

The old lady frowned slightly and shook her head weakly, her pale lips moving as she spoke:

"Take it away. This medicine won't do anything even if you drink it."

"Help me to go see the moon again." The old lady stretched out her hand towards Hua Jingqian.

Hua Fuyue's mourning hall is next to the main hall of Jinghua Hall.

Hua Jingqian helped the old lady out of the door and soon they arrived at the mourning hall.

Hua Fuyue had not yet married, and there was no young person to wear mourning clothes for her. Only a few servants in white clothes knelt in the middle of the mourning hall and pretended to shed a few tears.

Sun Ruhui sat slumped, leaning on the coffin.

His expression was numb, he stared blankly at Hua Fuyue, but not a single tear fell.

When the old lady saw this, she couldn't help but sigh.

After all, she is the daughter-in-law who has called me mother for many years.

"Ruhui, don't be too sad."

Hua Jingqian helped the old lady sit down on a chair next to the mourning hall, then walked to the coffin and looked at Hua Fuyue.

But perhaps he had something to hide, and he didn't dare to look at Hua Fuyue's face closely. His eyes just wandered towards the coffin for a moment.

Then he wiped away his tears with his sleeve, his face full of sorrow:

"Yue'er, why did you abandon your father and mother like this? You are so confused! As long as your father is here, what is there for you to worry about?"

Hua Jingqian beat his chest and stamped his feet and said a few words to express his grief.

Then he carefully helped Sun Ruhui up, his face showing a mixture of grief and concern, and he comforted Sun Ruhui like a gentle husband:

"Madam, you should also take care of yourself and don't be too sad. Yue'er is worried when she sees you like this."

Of course Yue'er won't feel at ease if you're still alive!

Sun Ruhui cursed in her heart.

There was no trace of hatred on his face, only grief for the loss of his daughter.

The numb expression on her face when she was leaning against the coffin even collapsed in an instant when Hua Jingqian helped her up, turning into grief and fragility.

Sun Ruhui buried her head in Hua Jingqian's chest and cried.

From the back, she looks like a fragile girl crying in her husband's arms after losing her daughter.

In fact, the hand placed on the chest was clenched into a fist.

If he had a knife in his hand, he would have stabbed it into Hua Jingqian's chest.

Hua Jingqian supported Sun Ruhui to maintain his own image and to see if Sun Ruhui would have any strange reactions.

If Sun Ruhui shows any sign of wrongdoing, he will ruthlessly eliminate her completely!

Only when he saw that Sun Ruhui had no grudge against him as usual did he dispel his doubts.

He patted Sun Ruhui and comforted her:

"You've been watching over Yue'er for a whole day, so you should take a good rest. Luluo, take Madam back to her room and take good care of her. Serve her some food."

"Yes."

-

The news of Hua Fuyue jumping into the well had already spread throughout the general's mansion, but Hua Wuke didn't care.

The reason I sent the letter to Sun Ruhui last night was not to save Hua Fuyue.

After all, why would you save someone who is determined to kill you?

But Hua Fuyue is Hua Wuke's cousin after all. No matter what happened between the two, according to the rules, Hua Wuke, as the younger sister, has to show up and do some superficial work.

As usual, Hua Wu Ke practiced martial arts with Qing Zhu and then studied "Qinnong Tianzhong" for a while before slowly preparing to go to the mourning hall.

Looking at Hua Wu Ke sitting in front of the mirror, letting Qing Mei tie her hair up nicely, Qing Zhu said:

"Miss, Luoyi was the only spy you placed in the Second House. Now she has been eliminated by Hua Jingqian. Should we insert a new person?"

Speaking of Luo Yi, it's really a pity for Hua Wu Ke.

Ever since the laxative incident at the academy, she had never used it once before Hua Jingqian took her away by chance.

but……

"It doesn't matter," Hua Wu Ke replied, "I already have a better ally."

-

Sun Ruhui returned to her room with the help of Luoluo.

Seeing that there was no one else around when they returned to the room, Sun Ruhui pulled Luluo close to her and whispered in her ear:

"Go out through the side door and wait in the bamboo forest. When you see Hua Wu Ke, tell her that I want to meet her."

Luoluo looked at Sun Ruhui in surprise.

The servant who delivered the letter last night was Hua Wuke's bodyguard. He avoided Sun Ruhui who was informed by Luoluo, so Luoluo didn't know that Hua Wuke sent someone to deliver the letter.

"Madam, the relationship between the third lady and the second wife is not as good as before. Will she agree to meet you?"

"Why do you think I suddenly went to Yue'er's room in the middle of the night?"

"Is this the letter from Miss San?"

Resentment suddenly surged in Luluo's heart.

Why does Hua Wu Ke interfere in the affairs of the second wife for no reason?

If I hadn't seen those things with my wife last night, I wouldn't have to be so frightened now, afraid that Hua Jingqian would find out something was wrong with me!

Besides, what’s the point if the lady saw it? It would be better for her to know nothing and just be a good lady.

Moreover, if Hua Jingqian discovered that Sun Ruhui and Hua Wuke were "colluding", wouldn't that still implicate himself?

"Madam, since Hua Wu Ke has already torn her face with you, why would she tell you all this? She definitely has no good intentions!"

Sun Ruhui glanced at Luluo and warned:

"Put away your little thoughts! Don't think I don't know that you are talking like this because you resent Hua Wu Ke for sending me the letter.

I warn you, if you dare to have other thoughts, even before Hua Jingqian finds out, I will make sure you never speak again!"

"Green Radish doesn't dare!"

Of course, Luoluo didn't dare to speak to Hua Jingqian rashly.

This was tantamount to telling Hua Jingqian that he had caught him, and it would be strange if he didn't take action against him.
