Chapter 152 - Evil Spirit (12)

Chapter 152 : Evil Spirit (12)

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess told Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang about Third Lord Qiao’s involvement in the rebellion.

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life was really surprised when she heard this news. “Rebellion? How could it be possible?” How could San Shu[+]san=third, shu=father’s younger brother be involved in the Crown Prince’s rebellion plan when there was no such thing in her previous life?

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess explained, “Your San Shu[+]san=third, shu=father’s younger brother has already confessed. What we have to do now is found out how to remove ourselves cleanly so that your Father and Gege[+]elder brother are not going to get implicated too.”

Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang gnashed her teeth and accused, “This is certainly the work of the Han family, right? This act by the Han family is truly wanting to quickly kill my Qiao family.”

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess always thought that Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life was clever, but now she found out that this daughter of hers was too stupid, “After you made those people go to the Han family to commit murder and arson, the Han family and Qiao family naturally become mortal enemies.” Since they were now enemies, it was natural for them wanting to kill their enemy with their own hands. Who would still want to show mercy towards their enemy, right?

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life’s face turned pale. She really didn’t expect things to end up this serious. She hurriedly asked, “Mother, what should we do now?”

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was not in a panic mode right now. She knew Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life had helped the 9th Prince. If he came forward in this matter, it was not a problem for him to save their family. As for the rest of the Qiao family, she couldn’t control it. “Did you really do that matter to the Han family? Tell me, why did you do it?”

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life tried to measure the gains and losses if she decided to tell the truth.

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was extremely furious, “Even by this time you still don’t want to say anything. Do you want your whole family to be killed by you before you’re willing to say anything?”

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life couldn’t say that Yuxi was the same as her. Since she was praised as auspicious by the Emperor, wouldn’t it mean Yuxi was the same too?[+]This noob translation was translated by a noob translator ???. Please read this chapter at xin-shou.blogspot.com.

When Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess looked at Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life looking like this, she remembered the rumours that had been spreading outside, thus she suddenly asked, “Is it because Han Yuchen will become the woman favoured by the 9th Prince that’s why you want to kill her? There are ways to kill Han Yuchen, an yet, you have to use the stupidest way.”

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life immediately shook her head and answered, “No.” She was trying to get someone to kill Han Yuxi in the chaos, while at the same time, took Han Yuchen’s life along the way. This had nothing to do with the 9th Prince even in the slightest.

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess asked suspiciously, “If it’s not for that reason, then why did you do it? Today, you have to give me a clear explanation on this.”

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life now realised that she had dug a hole just to bury herself in. Han Yuxi had always been quiet and hadn’t done anything out of the ordinary. Even if she outwardly said that Han Yuxi was an evil spirit, others would only say that she just bit anyone at random. Hence, no one would believe her words without question.

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess really wanted to slap Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life again, but she would endure her anger for now and inquired, “You caused this matter, and only you can solve it. Have you met the 9th Prince in the past two days?”

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life knew what her mother meant. “Ninth Ge[+]elder brother, short form for Gege doesn’t want to see me.”

After a moment of silence, Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess asked, “What does the 9th Prince mean to you?” She knew Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life’s thoughts. If the 9th Prince could marry Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life as his Zheng Fei[+]Main Consort, she would be happy to see it happen. So she never prevented Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life from getting in touch with the 9th Prince.

In fact, Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was aware that with the Qiao family’s family background, Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life could hardly become the 9th Prince’s Zheng Fei[+]Main Consort . What Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess really thought was that even if Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life couldn’t become the Zheng Fei[+]Main Consort of the 9th Prince, she could still become his Ce Fei[+]Side Consort. As long as she got along well with the 9th Prince, being his Ce Fei[+]Side Consort was no worse than being his Zheng Fei[+]Main Consort.

Hostility flashed in Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life’s eyes. “The 9th Prince said that he could accept me as his Ce Fei[+]Side Consort, but I refused.” She was unwilling to be inferior in rank with Yu Xiyu.

With a cold expression, Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess asked, “Now, do you think you have a second way besides marrying the 9th Prince?” Seeing that He Shou didn’t understand what she meant, she directly pointed out, “You’re the Prince’s lucky charm. Do you think the Imperial Family would let you marry down to someone else?” That was one of the reasons why Song Guifei[+]Noble Consort would intercede for Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life.

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life wanted to marry the 9th Prince, but she wanted to be the Zheng Fei[+]Main Consort, not his Ce Fei[+]Side Consort.

When Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess looked at Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, she knew that Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life still had extravagant hopes for the 9th Prince. “For you to be his Zheng Fei[+]Main Consort, no need for you to think anymore about it. If the 9th Prince had the heart, he would have mentioned it to the Emperor a long time ago, and he won’t have to wait until now to do it.”[+]This noob translation was translated by a noob translator ???. Please read this chapter at xin-shou.blogspot.com.

Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang stated, “Mother, I don’t want to be his Ce Fei[+]Side Consort.” She was the daughter of a Gongzhu[+]Princess. How could she just be a concubine and unable to wear the bright red wedding dress for the rest of her life?

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess looked at Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life and said, “If you don’t marry the 9th Prince, you can only be an oil lamp before the statue of Buddha[+]the lonesome Buddhist monk’s or nun’s life for the rest of your life.”

Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang asked while feeling puzzled, “What does Mother mean by this? What do you mean by if I don’t marry the 9th Prince, I can only spend my life as an oil lamp before the statue of Buddha[+]the lonesome Buddhist monk’s or nun’s life?” After listening to Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess’s explanation, she turned as white as a piece of paper, “Is there no other way for me to walk on?”

When Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess saw Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life’s appearance, her heart turned soft. “You have the ability to foresee, so your vitality will be so great. Albeit when you enter the 9th Prince’s Mansion, not even the 9th Prince’s Consort can hold you down. This is merely in name only. In the future, when the 9th Prince becomes the Emperor, you will at least become his Guifei[+]Noble Consort.” Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was a person who especially liked to spoil her children. Whether it was Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life or Qiao Meng, she would alway become docile and obedient to their whims. That was how Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life had developed this domineering temperament. As for Qiao Meng, he had turned up as a hedonistic person.

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life pursed her lips and remained silent.

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess advised, “Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, if you don’t want to spend your whole life being an oil lamp before the statue of Buddha[+]the lonesome Buddhist monk’s or nun’s life, then you’ll have to go easy on the 9th Prince.”

Before Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang could make her decision, there was a confession from Third Lord Qiao that Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess had helped to inquire about news and rope in connections for the late Crown Prince. The reason his smuggling business had the late Crown Prince’s shares was also because of Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess who had become the go-between person between them.

When Yuxi heard this news, she found it to be so unbelievable. “Dage[+]eldest brother, why would Third Lord Qiao implicate Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess too?” Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was not a fool. How could she help the Crown Prince when she already knew that the Emperor hated the late Crown Prince and the late Empress? This was obviously a false accusation.

Han Jianming shook his head and replied, “I don’t know what’s going on. Someone has interfered with this matter. This person is not only trying to put the Qiao family to death, but also drag Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess along with it. Without Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess, Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang will have no one to lean on.” Although Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was not the Emperor’s blood sibling, she was still the Imperial Family Gongzhu[+]Princess. No one could touch her unless she plotted something serious like rebellion.

When Yuxi heard this, she immediately said, “Dage[+]eldest brother, do you think this matter could be the work of the Yu family?” With that kind of skill and ability, she couldn’t think of anyone else except for the Yu family.

Han Jianming shook his head and replied, “If it was the Yu family who did it, we won’t be able to find out anything about it. However, if it was really the work of the Yu family, it will only be beneficial for us.” Once it involved plotting a rebellion, even if one could save one’s own life, one would not be able to save one’s own skin[+]Chinese idiom : receiving a major harm or a significant loss. This time it would be hard for Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess to get out of it.

It was only through this incident that Yuxi truly understood why Han Jianming said that the State Residence only had an attractive appearance. The Han family had gone to great lengths just to hurt the Qiao family, while the people of the Yu family, without even showing their faces, had sent the Qiao family into the eighteenth level of hell[+]condemn to eternal damnation till they couldn’t even free themselves, while incidentally dragged Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess into it as well. The two families’ handiworks were simply not on the same level. “Dage[+]eldest brother, what should we do now?”

Han Jianming shook his head and said, “Nothing can be done now. This plan will go wrong if we do anything. Let’s just wait and see what’s going to happen next.” After saying that, he revealed a sneering look, “Hasn’t Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang opened her all-seeing mind[+]Buddhism : mind which perceives both past and future? I like to see how she’s going to save Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess and her Qiao family this time.”

Yuxi thought for a moment and stated, ” Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang may really be able to save Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess and the Qiao family.”

Han Jianming ridiculed, “Save? With her ability to foresee? If she really has this ability, how can the Qiao family still fall into the risk of extermination?” Ever since the people from the Qiao’s family were put in in prison, Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life’s so-called foresight was just like a joke to him.

Yuxi frowned as she said, “I am afraid that the 9th Prince will intervene.” When she noticed Han Jianming’s puzzled face, she explained, “Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang was able to predict the time when the palace rebellion happened, so he certainly won’t hide it, and he will surely inform others about it. I’ve thought it over, and I feel that the 9th Prince is the most suitable candidate to be their saviour.”

Han Jianming pondered for a moment before saying, “I’ll have someone look into this matter.” With a Prince involved, especially when it was the 9th Prince, who most likely to inherit the throne, they had to be cautious.

At this time, the Gongzhu[+]Princess Mansion was shrouded in a layer of shadow. Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess looked at Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang and said, “Tell me everything you can predict.” At this point, what they should think about was how to save themselves.

Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang turned pale as she asked, “Mother, what do you want me to tell you?”

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess was too lazy to talk nonsense with Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life at this point. “Tell me everything you know so that we still have a slim chance of survival as well. Otherwise our whole family will have to die.” The Emperor had always hated the Crown Prince and the Empress. No one who had anything to do with the Crown Prince would have a good end. And now the Third Lord Qiao had lodged an accusation against her. If they didn’t think of their own way out and only rely on the 9th Prince, by then it could be said that there was really no way out for them.

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life was still unwilling to do so as she continued to ask, “Mother, is this all the Han family’s work? How could they have so much power to do it?” The Han family obviously gained power after Han Yuchen had become the Empress. Before that, the Han family was just a mere skeleton, so how could they have so much ability to force San Shu[+]san=third, shu=father’s younger brother to frame her mother for her involvement in the rebellion matter as well.

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess replied, “It’s not the work of the Han family. They don’t have such a great skill. But now is not the time to pursue this matter. Just tell me everything that you can foresee.”

When Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess saw that Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life still wouldn’t speak about it, she asked, “Do you want to see your mother imprisoned in the clan residence before you’re willing to speak?”

Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life breathed out a sigh of relief after knowing the Han wasn’t the culprit. At this point, she no longer concealed her secret, “Mother, I actually don’t have the ability to foretell. I just had a dream, a dream that couldn’t be more real.”

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess’s face remained unchanged as she instructed, “Tell me everything you have dreamed of.” In the past, she didn’t interfere because she didn’t think it was necessary. But now, she really had to take care of it.

Heshou Xianzhu[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life, xianzhu=Princess of the Fourth Rank/usually granted to the daughter of a Junwang told Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess everything she had experienced in her last life, leaving nothing out. Even about the fact that she was killed by Meng Yao’s concubine in the end.

Qingyang Gongzhu[+]Princess’s face turned ugly after hearing her story. She didn’t expect her daughter to dream about things that would happen for the next nine years, and her dream was so close to reality. It was true that she had thought of giving Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life to Meng Yao that day. However, when Meng Yao had an accident, she let it go. Nevertheless, she never thought that Meng Yao’s accident was also Heshou[+]he = harmonious, shou = long life’s doing. This damned girl, there was nothing she wouldn’t dare to do, huh.
