Seeing him like this, Hua Shu couldn't help but frown. Why did he look so afraid of Concubine Fu?

Before she could figure it out, Hua Huaiyuan spoke first: "Since you have guests, your father will leave first."

After saying this, as if he suddenly thought of something, he added: "Just take care of yourself. I'll find a way to get your mother to the palace to talk to you in a few days."

After he finished speaking, he opened the door and walked out without waiting for Hua Shu to react.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he ran into Concubine Fu who was walking towards him. Hua Huaiyuan subconsciously lowered his head but still bowed to her.

"Your humble servant greets the Imperial Concubine."

When Concubine Fu saw him, her face instantly turned cold and her tone was full of sarcasm.

"I haven't seen you for many years, and you still look so disgusting."

Hua Huaiyuan's face also turned a little colder, but thinking that Hua Shu was still in the room, in order not to arouse her suspicion, he said nothing and just lowered his head.

Concubine Fu wanted to say something, but when she saw Hua Shu standing at the door, she ended up saying nothing. She walked past Hua Huaiyuan and went forward to support Hua Shu.

"You are still injured. Why don't you just take a good rest and get out of bed?"

Hua Shu glanced at Hua Huaiyuan and said with a smile, "I am much better now."

"Your face still looks so ugly, how can it get any better? Go back and lie down." After saying this, Concubine Fu helped her walk into the house.

Hua Shu did not refuse and walked in with her. When she turned around, she glanced at Hua Huaiyuan and saw him looking at Concubine Fu with a cruel face.

She couldn't help but frown. It seemed that something must have happened between Concubine Fu, her parents, and Hua Huaiyuan, otherwise Hua Huaiyuan would not be afraid of Concubine Fu.

But she was a little curious about what Concubine Fu had done to make Hua Huaiyuan so scared.

After they entered the house, Hua Huaiyuan withdrew his gaze and quickly walked out of Chuxiu Palace.

On the way out of the palace, his palms were soaked with cold sweat and his face looked extremely ugly.

It wasn’t because of what Concubine Fu said, but because he didn’t expect Concubine Fu to be so close to Hua Shu.

Although Concubine Fu didn't know everything about what happened back then, she knew about Hua Shu's life experience. If she told Hua Shu about this...

Thinking of this, Hua Huaiyuan unconsciously clenched his hands into fists. It seemed that he had to find a way to get rid of Concubine Fu as soon as possible.

……

Here, after Concubine Fu helped Hua Shu sit down, she couldn't help but ask, "What did he tell you?"

Hua Shu smiled and said, "Nothing, just asking if I'm feeling better."

Hearing this, Concubine Fu sneered and said, "The weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken."

Hearing her say this, Hua Shu couldn't help but ask, "Madam, do you know him?"

Concubine Fu nodded: "I guess we know each other."

There was some emotion in her tone that Hua Shu couldn't understand. She wanted to ask her why she hated Hua Huaiyuan so much.

But Concubine Fu changed the subject first and said, "Have you heard that the assassin last night might be the Fourth Prince's man?"

Hua Shu nodded, his eyes darkened and he said, "I heard about it, but I don't think it's the Fourth Prince's man. After all, he's not a fool. It's impossible for him to leave such obvious evidence to identify himself."

After listening to this, Concubine Fu nodded and said, "I think so too."

After saying that, she held Hua Shu's hand and said, "Their fight caused you to suffer this unprovoked disaster."

Hua Shu smiled but said nothing. She didn't want to lie to Concubine Fu, but she also wouldn't tell her the truth, so it was better to just say nothing.

Concubine Fu sighed softly and said, "If only I could stop you when you entered the palace."

Hua Shu looked at her and couldn't help asking the question that had been hidden in her heart for a long time: "My Lady, can I ask why you are so nice to me?"

Concubine Fu looked at her and fell silent, just when Hua Shu thought she would not answer her.

She sighed and said, "Because I owe it to your father. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have ended up with nothing left."

Hearing this, Hua Shu was stunned. Wasn't her father killed by mistake? Why did Concubine Fu say that she was the one who caused her father's body to be destroyed?

She wanted to ask something else, but Concubine Fu suddenly remembered something and looked at her and said, "I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. You should have a good rest. I will come to see you in a few days."

After saying this, Concubine Fu and Nanny Wang fled out of Chuxiu Palace.

Hua Shu looked at her back and fell into deep thought. Could it be that her sword attack did not kill her father?

But if that was the case, why did Xiao Junru lie to her and say that he was dead?

The more Hua Shu thought about it, the more strange what happened back then seemed to her. Just as she was thinking about it.

Caiyue and Rendong came in with medicine. Hua Shu withdrew his thoughts, took the medicine and drank it.

Caiyue took the medicine bowl and handed it to Rendong, then stepped forward, held her hand and said, "Master, the most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself, don't think about anything else."

Hua Shu held her hand, smiled and nodded, "Okay."

She also planned to put these things aside and take care of her body. She was really weak now, especially the fake pregnancy pills would take effect from time to time, torturing her unbearably.

Caiyue took off her shoes, covered her with a blanket, and didn't leave until she fell asleep.

Hua Shu slept until the evening and did not wake up when Emperor Wu Ren came.

Caiyue wanted to wake her up, but Emperor Wu Ren said, "Let her have a good rest, and you guys serve her wholeheartedly."

After saying that, he led his men out of Chuxiu Palace.

As soon as he left, Hua Shu opened her eyes. It didn't matter if he didn't stay overnight. She had no intention of dealing with him now.

After having a quick dinner, Hua Shu fell into a deep sleep again. That night, Caiyue and Rendong did not leave the room and stayed with her.

……

This day.

Prime Minister's House.

Xiao Junru, who had changed her name, entered the mansion and after serving tea to the first wife Xu Ningshu, she was helped to the bridal chamber.

Hua Huaiyuan and Xu Ningshu stayed to entertain the guests. Although Xu Ningshu was not happy, she still had a decent smile on her face.

Hua Jingyan and Hua Yaoxue looked at each other, their faces were not very happy. Although they both knew that their father was acting, they knew that their mother was not feeling well.

In the wedding room.

Xiao Junru asked the servants to leave. She lifted her veil and looked at the familiar scene in the room with a smile on her face.

This was the yard where she lived before. Unexpectedly, the layout of the yard was still the same as before.

It seems that he still has her in his heart. Thinking of this, the smile on her face deepened.

She stood up, walked to the window, opened it and wanted to see the view outside.

Unexpectedly, at this moment the door of the room was pushed open. Xiao Junru thought it was Hua Huaiyuan who came. She was delighted and subconsciously turned around and called out.

"Huaiyuan."

But when she saw who was coming, her face turned pale instantly and she collapsed to the ground.

Isn't he dead? How come he is here?

Seeing her like this, Xiao Juzhu couldn't help laughing: "It's been a long time since we last met. How come you've become more timid?"

Looking at the smile on his face, Xiao Junru's hands couldn't help but tremble. She knelt straight and said:

"This servant greets the master."
