It was not the first time that Yun Shang had heard this, but when she heard it before, Yun Shang was still a little hesitant. After all, Su Ruji entered the palace after the accident of Empress Hua, and now Empress Hua still...
However, when Yun Shang heard her words again, she couldn't help but believe her. Lady Hua Guo looked as if she was an ordinary woman in a mansion. But after a year's contact, Yun Shang found that she was much more insightful than she had imagined. Maybe the truth of Hua Ling's accident was not that simple.
"I and Qingyan will send someone to investigate the matter of mother. If the Su clan really did something to mother in secret and caused such a situation, we will definitely not spare them." Yun Shang squinted, with a murderous look in her eyes.
Lady Hua Guo was very happy to hear this. She patted Yun Shang's hand and said, "Okay, I'm happy that you have the heart. The Su clan has a deep foundation. It's better to avoid head-on confrontation." After a pause, she looked out of the door and said meaningfully, "The one in the high position might know the truth about Ling'er's death. In the two years after Ling'er's death, he looked for the murder crazily, but then he gradually fell silent. Many people said it was because there was no hope, but I always felt that it was because he knew something."
After leaving Lord Hua Guo's mansion, Yun Shang had been thinking about what Lady Hua Guo said.
According to Lady Hua Guo, Xia Huanyu must have known that the accident of Empress Hua had something to do with the Su clan. But he had been holding back his anger all the time in order to one day completely destroy the Su clan.
Thinking of the way Xia Huanyu dealt with the eldest princess, Yun Shang felt a touch of coldness in her heart. He even didn't spare his sister. Let alone the murderer who killed his beloved woman.
"Your Highness, are you going to the Liyuan Theater?" Qin Yi asked softly.
Yun Shang was in a daze for a while before she realized the theater Qin Yi asked was the place Hua Yutong and the man frequently visited recently.
"Has the seventh princess booked a table today?" Yun Shang looked up at Qin Yi.
"Yes." Qin Yi replied in a low voice, "She has booked a private room as two seats as usual."
Yun Shang thought for a moment and nodded, "Let's go there."
Qin Yi replied and then ordered the coachman outside. Soon they arrived at the theater.
Qin Yi opened the curtain and looked out. Then she got off the carriage, lifted the curtain and helped Yun Shang get off the carriage.
As soon as they entered the Liyuan Theater, the attendants led them to a private room they have booked on the second floor.
The private room was just a space separated from outside by two screens and a curtain. Leaning against the railing of the second floor, they could look down and saw the stage on the first floor.
Qin Yi looked around, took a teacup from the table, and poured tea for Yun Shan
eplied with tenderness reflected in his eyes, "Okay, go ahead."
Hua Yutong took Yun Shang downstairs and left Liyuan Theater. She asked the coachman to take Xu Sansi back to the Inn and got on Yun Shang's carriage herself.
Yun Shang smiled and followed her into the carriage.
Hua Yutong lifted the curtain of the carriage and waved at Xu Sansi, then she put it down. "I heard that you were missing a few days ago. I was so worried about you. Are you all right?"
Yun Shang smiled, "Look, I'm fine in front of you."
Hua Yutong breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's good, that's good."
Yun Shang stared at Hua Yutong for a long time and asked softly, "How is everything in the seventh prince's mansion recently?"
The smile on Hua Yutong's face faded a little. She shook her head and said, "Same as usual. The madam and butler are in charge of all the affairs of the mansion. They seldom ask for my opinion. I was just a princess in name only.
Looking at the bitter smile on Hua Yutong's face, Yun Shang kept silent for a long time and said, "Although I just came back from the Palace yesterday, I've heard some rumor about you. Have you heard?"
Hua Yutong was stunned for a while and then smiled, "Do you mean the rumor about me and my cousin? Of course I've heard it.
Yun Shang remained silent.
Only then did Hua Yutong realize something was wrong. She widened her eyes and looked at Yun Shang, "Shang'er, don't tell me you believe the rumor."
Yun Shang just smiled, but still didn't respond.
Hua Yutong looked a little embarrassed. She kept silent for a long time and said gently, "In fact, I'm not very close to the cousin. I've been watching the play with him almost every day these days for some purpose."
Yun Shang looked up at her. Hua Yutong stuck out her tongue and smiled helplessly. "My uncle is a businessman and my cousin often goes around with him. Before he had visited Lingxi City before he came here in Jin City..."
