“After receiving the report, I felt that something was not quite right. So, I sent people to further investigate the man with the surname Liu, only to find that he had close connections with a distant cousin of Duke Zhen’s son, Madam

Xue.”

“Therefore, I suspect that the child born to the prostitute isn’t dead.”

“Heh, Duke of Zhen’s household?”

The enchanting young man with eyes rimmed in three shades of evil let out a cold chuckle, filled with obvious sarcasm.

“Since a century, there has been no female born in Duke Zhen’s household; five years ago, the birth of the eldest granddaughter alarmed the whole Capital City. Almost all the high-ranking officials and powerful families visited to offer their congratulations.”

“The hundredth-day banquet was even more extravagant, with invitations spanning the entire world and feasts lasting three full days and nights.”

“If that girl turns out to be Duke Zhen’s real granddaughter, I would like to see the expressions on the faces of Wei Kingdom’s heroes when the truth comes out.”

“The Duke of Zhen’s household is famously infatuated with their granddaughter.”

Luo Zhan smiled wryly, revealing a hint of mockery: “But that little girl has been pampered and indulged so much that she’s become arrogant. At merely five years old, she enjoys whipping people and has seven older brothers protecting her. No one dares to provoke her. At this rate, it won’t be long before she brings disaster upon herself.”

“What a pity, she’s bright and clever, a genuinely rare talent.”

The young man’s brow rose in disappointment: “But, alas, she’s Duke Zhen’s granddaughter, and thus beyond our control.”

“Pavilion Master’s discerning eye!” freew(e)bnovel.com

Luo Zhan shared the sentiment: “Little Qingluo has extraordinary abilities and will surely shine brightly when she’s older. It’s only a matter of time before the Duke Zhen’s household suspects something and claims her as their own. It isn’t easy for Thousand-Mechanism Pavilion to oppose the Duke Zhen’s family, let alone take their child.”

“Little Qingluo?”

The young man suddenly showed a wicked smile: “Luo Zhan, it seems you have taken quite a liking to that young girl.”

Luo Zhan’s face changed instantly as he fell to one knee: “This subordinate wouldn’t dare!”

“Get up.”

Three shades of mischief flashed across the young man’s eyes: “Since you think highly of her, try to get closer to her. Even if we can’t win her over, gaining her goodwill will still be beneficial and harmless to our plans.”

“Subordinate obeys!”

Luo Zhan rose as instructed, his back drenched in cold sweat.

Meanwhile, in Capital City, Imperial Court. (f)reewe(b)novel

A report detailing Su Qingluo’s origins, almost identical to Luo Zhan’s, was sent to deputy chief Xu Yunru’s hands.

Xu Yunru tore open the secret letter, scanned its content, and her expression grew somber.

After a long period of contemplation, she quietly sighed and ordered her subordinates: “Leave it at this. There’s no need to investigate any further.”

“Deputy Chief Xu, why?”

The female official in charge of the investigation asked without understanding, insisting on a response.

Having spent much effort to find these useful clues, she couldn’t accept giving up halfway.

“We must tread carefully when involving the Duke of Zhen’s household.”

Xu Yunru sighed with regret: “If she is truly their relative, it’s fine. But if we make a mistake and slander the family of a meritorious minister, we cannot bear such a crime.”

The female official argued firmly: “If evil people have replaced the real girl and caused an innocent child to be displaced, wouldn’t we be complicit in their wrongdoing if we don’t continue the investigation?”

Xu Yunru’s eyes darkened, revealing a hint of ferocity: “I understand the situation. You’re not to question this any further.”

“Yes!”

The female official snapped to attention, not daring to argue any further. She bowed and left the room.

Xu Yunru watched her subordinate leave with cold eyes, walked over to the table, took out a piece of note paper from beneath the scroll, and began writing with a pen and ink stick.

After drying the ink, she rolled up the paper and walked over to the window.

She whistled softly, and a carrier pigeon flew in, landing on the window ledge..
