Chapter 1040: Chapter 1039: The Treasure of the Heaven and Earth Lock

Chu Feiyan woke up, and Chu Minghao and Gui Tong immediately rushed over.

The "dead object" on the table suddenly seemed unimportant, and no one paid attention to it.

After they left, Chu Qianli picked up the recorder and turned it on.

It was a message from Long Xinghe, delivered by Shiyi the day before.

After listening, she deleted the recording.

Chu Minghao would never discover the secret of the recorder.

She removed the batteries and placed the recorder back on the table, ignoring it.

Instead, she walked to the window and waved her hand.

The new recorder hanging in the tree branch was fetched by her.

Shiyi had managed to deliver this recorder this morning, and her skills in disguise were truly impressive.

Even Gui Tong had not noticed.

However, Gui Tong had been guarding her all day, so she had no chance to get the recorder.

Now that Chu Feiyan was awake, Gui Tong finally left.

Chu Qianli immediately turned on the recorder.

It contained a message Long Xinghe had left before he departed.

Hua Rong, Fen Jinghua!

Princess Hua was actually the deceased king’s wife.

So was the deceased king’s wife here to reclaim everything for the king?

Was the king truly killed by the current emperor?

But why was Yexuan a full-term child?

Even with modern technology, keeping a child in the womb for two extra months seemed highly unlikely.

Could it be that he was truly not the king’s son?

If he wasn’t the king’s son, it was impossible for him to help Hua Rong against the current Imperial Family.

There was definitely something amiss here, and Chu Qianli couldn’t figure it out at the moment.

As for Murong Yu being one of the founders of Medicine Man Valley, although she didn’t know, it wasn’t too surprising.

Murong Yu had already admitted that Long Xiyue’s death was related to her, which Chu Qianli knew.

Previously, she had even thought that Long Xiyue was killed by Murong Yu.

But since Murong Yu was Wuya’s real mother, killing Murong Yu for revenge would leave Wuya in despair.

For Wuya’s sake, she decided not to act until there was solid evidence that Murong Yu killed her mother.

But now, Long Xinghe’s message proved that Murong Yu was not the real culprit behind Long Xiyue’s death.

Then who exactly led the Medicine Man Corps to force Long Xiyue to her death?

Also, who was Murong Yu’s junior and Long Xiyue’s senior? Could he be her own father?

Murong Yu left with Long Xinghe, and one day when she found Murong Yu, she would have to ask her in person.

Suddenly, a bird chirp came from outside.

Chu Qianli quickly walked to the window.

A servant was sweeping fallen leaves under a distant tree.

Chu Qianli whistled softly, and the servant immediately came to the window.

"Gui Tong just left, he might return soon," she said.

Shiyi pressed down on the servant’s hat and whispered, "Today, a message suddenly spread through the Imperial City, claiming that the legendary Heaven and Earth Lock appeared in Nanming Imperial City."

"That’s impossible," Chu Qianli’s eyes darkened.

Shiyi looked at her with surprise, "Boss, why... is it impossible?"

The Heaven and Earth Lock had been lost for many years, and everyone had been searching for it.

Because, according to legend, the Heaven and Earth Lock holds a Treasure Map, and whoever obtains the treasures within could be rich enough to rival countries.

Now, with each of their respective powers, if one of them could get the treasure, he could recruit soldiers and expand his power rapidly.

Then, he would certainly be able to turn the tide and overturn the regime.

Shiyi lowered his voice, anxiously saying, "Boss, if you can get the Heaven and Earth Lock and find the treasure within, you could have a force even greater than Prince Yexuan and Prince Heke! You must not miss the treasure of the Heaven and Earth Lock."
