Chapter 1066: Chapter 1065: Does that Person Really Understand?

Princely Heir.

Prince Chu Lingyang of Nanming, the second Imperial Brother to the current Emperor.

Chu Qianli had no particular impression of him, having only heard that on the battlefield, he, too, was a great general.

Perhaps not as famous as the War God Feng Yexuan or Feng Dingchu, but in Nanming, his military achievements were indeed illustrious.

It appeared that Uncle Nine actually knew the Princely Heir of Nanming.

Most importantly, Fu Ning had said that any request would be granted.

The relationship between Uncle Nine and this Princely Heir must then be far from ordinary.

It was puzzling indeed how two generals from different countries could share such a profound bond.

"When he gave this to you, was he using the identity of Wu Chenzi, or..." Chu Qianli looked at Fu Ning.

Fu Ning spoke softly, "Master never mentioned this point, but he said, if the Princely Heir suspects the origin of the jade pendant, you should say that the Princely Heir still owes him three taels of beef, and the Princely Heir will understand."

Chu Qianli remained silent, looking down at the jade pendant in her hand.

Three taels of beef; this sort of remark seemed very much in keeping with the style of a general on the battlefield.

It seemed that Uncle Nine’s interactions with the Princely Heir were under the identity of Prince Feng Dingchu.

That is to say, it was Prince Feng Dingchu, not Wu Chenzi, who was close with the Princely Heir.

Chu Qianli continued to study the jade pendant.

She just felt that the craftsmanship of the pendant, that engraving technique, was somewhat familiar.

Where had she seen it before?

But this pendant was clearly an item from the Nanming Imperial Family, with whom she had yet to have any dealings; she shouldn’t have seen it before.

Nonetheless, the jade pendant felt strangely familiar to her.

Where had she seen something similar before?

A bit of noise came from outside.

A coachman came up and started driving the carriage.

The procession began to move forward again.

Chu Qianli put away the jade pendant and looked at Fu Ning.

Fu Ning leaned in and whispered, "Miss, are you truly poisoned?"

Chu Qianli nodded.

Fu Ning’s face immediately darkened, "You shouldn’t treat yourself this roughly!"

"Then what? If I wasn’t poisoned, how would they find an opportunity to drug me and control me?"

"But you will suffer!" Fu Ning just couldn’t stand it in his heart.

Their young lady was sometimes just too harsh on herself to achieve her goals!

"Is it also true about being drugged now?" Looking at the young lady’s current complexion, pale and lacking any vigor, she hardly seemed spirited.

Having been drugged, her body must feel terrible.

Besides, there was also Chu Feiyan to consider, who’d held a grudge against the young lady since the last Selection Ceremony.

Could Chu Feiyan pass up such an excellent opportunity to torment her?

"Miss..."

"Chu Minghao is not as simple as he seems on the surface, and Gui Tong is openly a man of Prince Yexuan, yet he’s also loyal to Chu Minghao; one can imagine that the Princely Heir does have some tricks up his sleeve."

The likelihood of deception in Chu Minghao’s presence was not so great.

Moreover, she needed to make a trip to Nanming to see who was secretly spreading the news about the Heaven and Earth Lock.

It was clearly false news; what kind of scheming lay behind it?

However, Fu Ning still muttered with some resentment, "You don’t strictly have to go to Nanming, are you afraid there’s some grand conspiracy there, waiting for those who are headed that way?"

Fu Ning glanced out the window.

The view was bright and beautiful.

But in the young lady’s heart, there was only gloom!

She understood better than anyone!

"Miss, you always make everyone think you are cold-hearted, but in truth, you value emotions and loyalty the most! But for everything you do for him, does that person truly understand?"
