Chapter 1093: Uncovering the Secret

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Han Jingshu was a noble lady who had been influenced by noble etiquette since she was young. The person she mentioned was naturally not someone like Yu

Wan who carried the plate over herself. In fact, the way Yu Wan and Yan Jiuchao interacted and the fun was really something that the big clans could not imitate.

Han Jingshu was in front, and Lu’er was behind with a tray. The master and servant walked towards Yan Huaijing’s courtyard.

Yan Huaijing’s courtyard was not far. After all, they were husband and wife. How could they set their courtyard so that they could not see each other for the rest of their lives?

However, when Han Jingshu crossed the arched bridge above the small lotus pond, she inadvertently saw a shadow behind the rockery. The shadow flashed past so quickly that it was a little strange.

Han Jingshu stopped in her tracks. The shadow did not notice her, but she watched as the shadow headed towards the garden in the east.

East? Wasn’t that where the advisors lived?

Yan Huaijing met his friends sincerely. There were twenty to thirty advisors from all over the world living in the manor, and all of them lived in the east of the manor. The Crown Prince Manor was big enough, so he was not worried that these people would be cramped. However, the residences where the advisors lived were also divided into regions according to their own strength and the degree of high regard they received from Yan Huaijing. The third-class advisors all lived in the Apricot Courtyard, the second-class advisors lived in the Bamboo Courtyard and the Orchid Courtyard, while the first-class advisors could have their own courtyard.

The cloaked man who had once offended Han Jingshu was a first-class advisor. He lived in the Full Moon Pavilion and had his own guards and manpower. The back view that flashed past just now looked very similar to one of his subordinates.

Perhaps it was because Han Jingshu was biased against this person, but she felt that this subordinate looked sneaky and did not look like he was doing anything serious. “I remember something I forgot. Send the ginseng soup to the Crown Prince first. I’ll come back after I go back and get my things.”

“If there’s no hurry, I’ll go get it.”

“By the time you bring the things over with the ginseng soup, the ginseng soup will have turned cold.”

“This… alright.” Lu’er wanted to say, “I plan to send the ginseng soup to the Crown Prince first before returning to the courtyard. However, since Master has instructed me, I’ll do as you say. Be careful on the way,” said Le’er, staring at her stomach.

Han Jingshu nodded. “I understand. Hurry up and send the ginseng soup to the

Crown Prince.”

Lu’er carried the ginseng soup away. After confirming that Lu’er had turned around and disappeared at the end of the road, Han Jingshu lifted her skirt and carefully walked towards the Full Moon Pavilion.

Yan Huaijing gave this advisor the greatest trust, so he did not plant any guards outside the Full Moon Pavilion. Moreover, their own men were not guarding the door. They probably thought that there was no existence in the Crown Prince Manor that could really threaten them, so they were not so vigilant.

Indeed, if Han Jingshu hadn’t followed them with curiosity, no one in the Crown Prince Manor would have barged into Full Moon Pavilion.

Han Jingshu quietly entered the courtyard. She had never been to the Full Moon Pavilion, so she was not sure which room the advisor stayed in and where the sneaky servant went. Just as she was at her wits’ end, a deep voice came from the corner.

“What did you find out this time?”

It was the cloaked advisor!

Han Jingshu had seen him from afar once. That time, he did not go forward to greet Han Jingshu. However, after that, when Han Jingshu and Yan Huaijing left the manor together in the carriage, she heard the same voice. When she lifted the curtain and looked out, the other party had already walked far away. However, Han Jingshu could tell from his back that it was the advisor wearing a bamboo hat!

“Sir, not for the time being.”

“Nothing? We’ve been here for so long, but we still can’t find it?”

The person who was questioned must have been the sneaky figure just now. From their conversation, they seemed to be looking for something. What were they looking for? Where were they looking? The Crown Prince Manor? The capital?

Han Jingshu did not have an answer, but one thing was certain. Their motive for coming to Prince Jing Manor back then was not simple. They seemed to have joined Yan Huaijing, but they were actually looking for the thing they were talking about.

“Sir, it’s been so many years. Do you think… that person has already refined the Holy soul Pearl?”

It was the subordinate’s voice again.

Leftover pig? They were looking for a pig?! No, how could a pig be refined? Refine… lard? [T/N: The pronunciation of the Holy Soul Pearl in Chinese is similar to the pronunciation of leftover pig.]

At this moment, the cloaked advisor spoke again. “How can it be easy to refine the Holy Soul Pearl? Even if they have great ability, they can’t refine the Holy Soul Pearl without the bloodline of my clan.”

Clan? Bloodline?

To be honest, there were also many different races in the Great Zhou, such as the Miao Clan and the Bai Clan. However, for some reason, Han Jingshu felt that the “clan” the other party mentioned was not the clan she understood.

A huge guess suddenly arose in Han Jingshu’s heart: Could this cloaked advisor not be from the Central Plains? If not, where did he come from? Did Yan Huaijing know?

Before Han Jingshu could figure it out, their conversation came again. This time, it was still that subordinate who spoke first.

“I heard that the Holy Soul Pearl has the ability to revive the dead, but it can’t leave the clan. Once it leaves, it will lose its proper effect. Unless… it’s nourished with the blood and sweat of an expert, but can that person afford it? Could she have been exhausted to death by the Holy Soul Pearl? Or… could she have thrown the Holy Soul Pearl away because she couldn’t nourish it anymore? Or… could it be that the Holy Soul Pearl didn’t have enough blood and sweat to nourish it and became a dead thing?”

At this point, Han Jingshu finally had a clue. Han Jingshu was even more surprised. What kind of pig needed a human’s blood to raise? Wasn’t this a golden pig?!

The cloaked man said, “Put the Holy Soul Pearl aside first. When the time is right, it will naturally appear. At that time, we won’t have to deliberately search for it to be able to sense its aura. How’s your investigation of the other matter?”

What? Wasn’t it enough to find pigs? Did they have to find something else? How many motives did this group of people have for coming to the Great Zhou?

“It’s not easy to find. The capital is different from other cities. The places we can find are too limited. Moreover, there are many experts hidden in the various mansions in the capital. We don’t dare to make too much commotion.”

Han Jingshu summarized new information from their conversation. The second thing they were looking for needed to cause a huge commotion.

Han Jingshu was the daughter of the Prime Minister. She had seen many experts, but none of them could fuse into the night like the subordinate just now. She was lucky to have bumped into them. If they really used all their efforts to sense them, even Jun Chang’an would find it difficult to sense their aura.

Such an expert could not cause a big commotion if he searched for something. Unless… that thing could not be found if it did not cause a commotion.

Han Jingshu looked down at the floor under her feet. Could it be that they were going to dig three feet into the ground?

They were looking for… a grave?!

“Achoo!” The cloaked man and his subordinates sneezed.

It was unknown if Han Jingshu was infected, but she actually sneezed too! Han Jingshu wanted to hold it in, but everyone who had experienced it knew that it was very difficult to control a sneeze. In fact, they would feel uncomfortable if they didn’t sneeze!

After sneezing, Han Jingshu was stunned.

“Who is it?!” The cloaked man shouted, and his subordinate flashed in front of Han Jingshu like ghosts.

Han Jingshu did not even have a chance to escape before she was blocked by the other party. She tried her best to calm down and widened her eyes at the other party. “I… I’m here to look for the Crown Prince. Have you seen him?”

The subordinate looked at the cloaked man for instructions. The cloaked man placed his hands behind his back and slowly walked towards Han Jingshu. He said with a gloomy expression, “Did the Crown Prince Consort hear what you said just now?

Look, this person knew that she was the Crown Prince Consort! He had deliberately not bowed to her in the past! He was arrogant!

Han Jingshu said calmly, “What is it? Did you say something bad about me? You look like you’re afraid of being seen by me. Are you afraid that I’ll chase you out?”

It was true that Han Jingshu was the daughter of the Prime Minister. She had never experienced a storm, but she had been nurtured very well. There were many characteristics on her that young ladies did not have. For example, she had a calm temperament and the courage to not lose to men.

She even disguised herself flawlessly. Unfortunately, she had overestimated their conscience. Their mission concerned the rise and fall of the entire clan, so they would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let a single one go!

“Find a safe place and deal with her.” After the cloaked man instructed coldly, he turned around and returned to his room.

Only then did Han Jingshu realize that the other party was extraordinarily bold. What was the big deal about not bowing and greeting her? This fellow could kill her without a word! One had to know that this was the Crown Prince Manor! He sounded like he had killed a sparrow when he asked someone to kill her?

Was there such a casual person?

The subordinate tapped Han Jingshu’s acupoints, and Han Jingshu was instantly unable to move or speak. That person carried Han Jingshu out of the courtyard and into the night. About fifteen minutes later, the person returned with a solemn expression and entered the cloaked man’s room.

“What’s wrong?” The cloaked man asked.

The subordinate said, “I encountered the guard called Jun Chang’an beside the

Crown Prince! I was afraid of being discovered and didn’t have time to kill her! However, I poisoned her until she fainted! The people of the Great Zhou can’t detoxify that kind of poison!”
