624 Grandfather and Granddaughter Meet (2)

Gu Elder Sun also heard it. If someone heard the same thing as him, then they didn’t hear wrongly.

Just now, he was only concerned about exposing Nangong Yan and ignored the little girl’s identity. Now, it seemed that not only was she related to the Helian family, but she also had a complicated relationship with the Emperor.

“The General asked her to call the Emperor Grandpa. So she’s the little princess’s daughter?” Gu Elder Song asked with a troubled expression. It would be bad if she was the little princess’s daughter. She had the Gu King and the Gu Queen on her. Her contributions were not small. If she was not careful, she would be able to protect the little princess.

Their Gu Hall had already fallen out with the Little Princess. If she did not fall, they would suffer.

“I’ve never heard of the Little Princess having a second daughter. Besides…” Gu Elder Sun paused and looked at Helian Beiming in the wheelchair.” She’s so close to the Grand General. I’m afraid she’s from the Helian family.”

“The Helian family?” Gu Elder Song scratched his head. At first, he had no idea. After thinking for a while, he had an idea. “Eldest… Eldest Princess?”

It was rumored that the second master of the Helian family, who had been missing for many years, had married the eldest princess who had wandered among the commoners.

Back then, everyone knew that the Eldest Princess had been sent out of Nanzhao. As for where she had been sent to, no one had announced it to the public. Therefore, other than a few ministers and trusted aides, no one knew that she had gone to the Ghost Clan. Back then, the Ghost Clan had used a holy artifact to propose to the Eldest Princess. It was also a different version among the commoners. Otherwise, it would not have become the Little Princess’s contribution in the end even though it was clearly something that the Eldest Princess had exchanged with her lifelong marriage.

There were good things about not knowing the inside story. At least, in their marriage, other than surprise and disagreement, the commoners did not suspect much.

Gu Elder Sun was always one of the few who knew the inside story, but he did not tell the rest of the Gu Elders. He nodded and said, “She should be the Eldest Princess’s daughter.”

“The Eldest Princess’s daughter obtained a holy artifact. This…”

Wasn’t this too bizarre?

Gu Elder Song was only surprised that the holy artifact was on Yu Wan, but Gu Elder Sun was lamenting that it seemed to be destined. In the end, the thing that she did not hesitate to sell the Eldest Princess in exchange for was in the hands of the Eldest Princess’s daughter. The one who vomited blood the most should be Nangong Yan, right?

After spending so much effort, she could not keep what did not belong to her.

On the other hand, Helian Beiming explained to the Emperor how Yu Wan had obtained the holy artifact. “…Last winter, Ah Wan’s family was very poor. Dabao and the other two were kidnapped by human traffickers. Ah Wan went to save them and brought them to hide in a dilapidated temple. There was a swordsman in the temple. In order to avoid the pursuit of his enemies, he placed the iron box containing the holy artifact into Ah Wan’s basket. After that, Ah Wan found something in the basket. She didn’t know what it was, so she opened it and took a look.”

Helian Beiming avoided the main point and omitted some details that did not need them to know and did not affect the truth.

For example, at that time, Ah Wan had yet to reunite with the little fellows. Another example was that Ah Wan had suffered wave after wave of pursuit for this thing. Another example was that this thing was not discovered by Ah Wan after the incident, but that Ah Wan had left it in Miss Bai’s restaurant and Miss Bai had personally sent it over.

In short, the moment Ah Wan opened the iron box, the holy artifact recognized its owner.

Gu worms liked jade and hated iron.

Using the iron ball to lock it up was to suppress it. After being repressed for so long, it was naturally unable to hold it in when it suddenly encountered the blood of extreme yin. Helian Beiming did not have the time to elaborate.

Nangong Yan was dumbfounded. She had used so many methods but could not subdue the Gu King. In the end, that girl did not do anything and the Gu King recognized her as its master?

“You’re lying!” Nangong Yan glared coldly at Helian Beiming. She did not believe it. She did not believe that that girl was more capable than her! So many Gu Masters in the Queen Manor had been used, and no one could do anything to the Gu King!

Helian Beiming calmly met her gaze and said calmly, “The one lying is Your Highness, the Princess. I remember Your Highness saying that the holy artifact was only stolen in these few months, but last November, it was already in Ah Wan’s hands. Your Highness, your lies seem to be more than today.”

Nangong Yan retorted, “I didn’t! I’m not lying! The holy artifact… The holy artifact was stolen after they came to Nanzhao! Who knew that you used a method to snatch the holy artifact that belongs to me!”

These words were too unconvincing.

As long as one was not blind, they would be able to see how loyal the Gu King was to Yu Wan. If one was to talk about snatching, it seems that the Gu Queen was snatched by her. Once the real owner arrived, it dumped her without a word.

Tsk, such pain, her face really hurts!

Nangong Yan felt everyone’s disdainful gazes on her. Her heart pounded as she turned to look at the Emperor. “Father! Believe me… Believe me!”

Putting aside whether the Emperor was stupid or not, he was not blind. Whether the holy artifact was stolen by that little girl or not, she had used the Gu Queen to deceive all of them today. Not only that, but she had also tried to slander the Gu Hall.

Such despicable actions were unforgivable.

The Emperor said in a deep voice, “Guards, escort the Princess back to the Dali Temple!”

The imperial guards surged forward, grabbed Nangong Yan, and dragged her down the altar. The pearly phoenix crown fell off, her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were in a mess. She had once walked up glamorously and fallen down in a sorry state.

What was even more tragic was that no one present sympathized with her. Even the State Preceptor felt that if she hadn’t courted death, there would still be some room for negotiation after the Gu Queen was exposed.

Nangong Yan cried bitterly. The Emperor was unmoved and let her be pulled down.

At this point, the ritual could no longer continue. The Emperor boarded the carriage back to the palace with a dark expression. He left, and the ministers dispersed. Although everyone had dispersed, everything that happened on the altar had completely spread among the people.

Everyone knew that the Little Princess had never obtained a holy artifact. The real holy artifact was in the hands of the Eldest Princess’s daughter.

This was very intriguing.

A true jinx would not be protected by the Gu God.

However, her family had three genius little Gu Elders, as well as the Gu King and the Gu Queen.

There was no one in Nanzhao who was more blessed than her.

At this moment, there was a new development in the matter of the Helian family’s servant committing murder. It was Sect Master Zhang and the others who “knew” that the person they had offended was the seventy-feet Little Gu Elder. They were “frightened” and kneeled at the entrance of the Helian family and loudly said that they had been blinded by lard and had received money to frame the Helian family. They earnestly begged the Helian family to forgive them.

This was naturally planned in advance. If it was exposed at this juncture, it would have the best deterrence and whitewashing effect.

The voices of the commoners about crusading the Helian family and expelling the Eldest Princess from Nanzhao gradually faded.

On the other hand, when the Little Commandery Princess went out, she was splashed with feces by a woman.

On the Nanzhao Beauty List, Nangong Li had fallen from his pedestal. Yan Jiuchao crushed him and he rose to the top.

After Yu Wan returned home, she was not in a hurry to ask Madam Jiang about it. It was mainly because she could not find her. She did not know where Madam Jiang and her father had gone to spend their time together. She went to Grandma’s room and asked him how his progress was. She also returned the Gu Queen to Grandma to keep it.

“You can’t let Yan Jiuchao take it away this time.”

She was scared to death. If she hadn’t stopped it quickly, this little fellow would have been eaten by the little Gu.

The old man knew that he was in the wrong and did not refuse. He put away the snow toad and secretly swore that he would never let anyone take it away again.

Fifteen minutes later, Yan Jiuchao appeared. “Where’s that little thing?”

The old man could tell that he was asking about the snow toad and said seriously, “I promised Ah Wan that I wouldn’t hand the Gu Queen over to you again.”

Yan Jiuchao said, “I’m not taking it away. I’m just giving it something.”

“Oh, there.” The old man pointed to a cabinet.

The Gu Queen assumed a seductive posture and lay on its side on the ice to take in the cold. It fell asleep and felt the ice sink. It opened its eyes.

Two red eggs that were even bigger than it and were like mountains appeared in front of him!

The dumbfounded Gu Queen : “…”
