The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Killing Two Birds with One Stone

”Your Highness, please take a look. This needle sweeps across a region, difficult to withstand its sharpness. This is the demeanor of vigorous youth, indicating someone young. That Prince Cheng must be around forty, right? Not in this category, not in this category!”

”Young person?” The Crown Prince was shocked, ”How young a young person? Could it be the Imperial Grandson?”

”According to this indication, it’s indeed a dragon and phoenix descendant, should be under twenty!” Gongyang Puyu guided, ”Your Highness might remember, months ago during the Holy Emperor’s birthday, the Imperial Grandson was summoned to the Capital City to accompany!”

The Crown Prince immediately understood.

He had always been focusing on his elder and younger brothers, but hadn’t thought of the Imperial Grandson!

The spies in the Capital City reported back, he knew very well who had arrived, only one Princely Heir came from Cheng Prince Mansion! Moreover, according to the spies’ reports, that Princely Heir is indeed very outstanding!

The Crown Prince’s eyes suddenly turned cold, ”Sir, could that Princely Heir be unfavorable to my palace?”

Gongyang Puyu stroked his beard, shook his head profoundly, ”The direction of the needle, sweeping everything, signifies the number nine and five!”

Number nine and five? Isn’t that the fate of the nine and five? The Crown Prince’s face changed slightly, ”Sir, are you saying he is the...”

Gongyang Puyu shook his head again, solemnly said, ”Your Highness is the destined one, and this person also has the number nine and five. Nanxia cannot have two rulers. Moreover, Your Highness is already in the reserve position, while he, from the astrological charts, with extreme sharpness will break, with extreme wisdom will be hurt, his fate has calamities, whether he can overcome them is still unknown!”

”What if he overcomes the calamities?” The Crown Prince’s gaze turned fierce, watching Gongyang Puyu intensely.

Gongyang Puyu, unafraid, said word by word, ”Nine-five supreme!”

The Crown Prince’s face grew darker, not speaking for a moment, then he raised his head again, his gaze towards Gongyang Puyu turned sharp, ”Sir, what we discussed today, I do not wish a third person to know!”

Gongyang Puyu gave a formal bow, his expression solemn, ”Rest assured, Your Highness, today I used up my essence and life span to glimpse the heavenly secrets for you because you are the destined master! Others do not have this qualification!”

These words made the Crown Prince extremely pleased, he said, ”Rest assured, sir, I will not treat you unfairly in the future!”

As for the Princely Heir of Prince Cheng, a cold and murderous intent flashed in the Crown Prince’s eyes, he is in the dark, the Princely Heir of Prince Cheng is in the light, he is willing, the Princely Heir has no intention, if this still lets the Princely Heir overcome calamities, then he is not fit to be the next monarch!

The next day, the Crown Prince coming to the Astronomical Observatory was something Huangfu Yuxuan already knew, it was reported by Gongyang Puyu personally!

Of course, he also explained how he step by step led Huangfu Hanjie into the trap, how he used tricks to make Huangfu Hanyu deeply convinced.

At that time, Huangfu Yuxuan was processing secret letters at his desk, upon hearing, he smirked slightly coldly.

That person, whose demeanor was dignified and graceful, whose appearance was picturesque, possessing both literary and martial talents, astute and kind-hearted, looking like a celestial being, in the Capital City for merely a month, yet managed to capture countless hearts and earn numerous praises.

Clearly, he did not put himself forward in everything, but as long as he was there, that humbleness yet unyielding, nobility yet without losing elegance, possessing the grandeur of the Imperial Grandson, as well as the unrestrained spirit of youth, his demeanor was impossible to ignore.

Furthermore, he almost became the Dean of Wenbo Academy, and the student of Grand Scholar Gu Hanmo, Mr. Gu.

Using such a person as Huangfu Hanjie’s target is very convincing, achieving two aims with one effort.

Huangfu Hanjie focused on dealing with the Princely Heir of Prince Cheng, thus would not place his eyes on him.

For now, he cannot go to Haotian Village.

Although not having married Xia Wenjin for a day leaves him uneasy, there are more important matters to handle at this time. He already diverted Prince Zhuang’s attention towards Huangfu Jingchen, he can achieve more from the shadows.

His father was suddenly demoted, although it was his own fault, there are many suspicious points that must be clarified.

If there is no internal affair, then the matter can be concluded, but if there’s another story, even if his father cannot recover, Grandfather over there will lean more towards his father’s son.

His father had mentioned, knowing that woman had a brother who hadn’t died, he kept sending people to chase, not knowing how he came to the Capital City.

A scholar wanting to join the imperial examinations, even organizing a group of rioting refugees, ultimately without martial skills, not only surviving the siege, but also running to the Capital City to file complaints?

He had thought of buying information from the Shadow Pavilion, after all, it’s convenient, but Shadow Pavilion doesn’t sell such information.

He must find out how the person filing the complaint managed to reach the Capital City and not die!

Who is secretly helping him?

The one helping him must carry clues.

Outskirts of Yunfeng County.

Though he had spent a night in the open, his sleep was unexpectedly comfortable, Huangfu Jingchen awoke feeling entirely refreshed, sleeping through without dreams until dawn. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

He sat up, the tree branches are thick, yet still soft to lie on. He turned his head, Xia Wenjin is already gone, even her bed is tidied, the fire still burning, but much smaller.

Huangfu Jingchen suddenly got up, did she flee again?

He looked around, at the place where the sun rose, a person is walking briskly.

Her features are as vivid as a painting, skin smooth as porcelain, lips a rosy hue, her blue dress fluttering, though merely strolling, in the morning light she seemed to walk on clouds, her noble aura, smiling eyes, relaxed demeanor, carefree and unrestrained.

Huangfu Jingchen was taken aback.

He seemed to see a woman stepping gently like blooming lotus, such nobility and beauty, such peerless allure...

He snapped back to reality, the smile that unconsciously floated on his lips slowly stiffened, what was he just thinking? This person, though feminine in appearance, is not a woman, but Long Yang.

Xia Wenjin laughed like a blooming flower, ”You woke up!”

Huangfu Jingchen forced himself to look serious, as if this could dispel the thoughts from his mind, ”Where did you go?”

”Washing my face, slept all night, need to tidy up!” Xia Wenjin casually replied.

Huangfu Jingchen recalled the area with the pond, his tone softened, ”I thought you ran away!”

Xia Wenjin shrugged, ”I wanted to run, but wouldn’t you catch me? Isn’t that pointless? Better not run!”

”You’re right, even if you ran, I can catch you! So, don’t try those tricks!” Huangfu Jingchen snorted coldly, his voice icy, his face also radiating coldness. He knew, this person simply wants to keep the Jade Pendant, but knows running away is futile. He must be careful not to be deceived.

Xia Wenjin curiously glanced at him, a hint of amusement in her eyes, jesting, ”What, after eating my chicken and sleeping on my bed for just one night, you turn around and don’t recognize me?”
