Chapter 1176: Witch
Only after watching them leave did Mister Lu look over at the disgruntled Lord Vassal Prince. He then analyzed with a light sigh, “The crown prince submitted this impeachment memorial jointly with several censors, so the king will definitely attach importance to this incident.”
“I know.” Chou Fu spat coldly, “He means to put me into place with this warning by killing one of my young generals on the street.”
“He wants to tell me that as long as he wills it, there isn’t anyone he can’t execute!” The Vassal Prince of An’nan sneered.
“The crown prince is too influential. We are unsuited to clash directly with him.” Mister Lu advised with a sigh, “Lord Vassal Prince should think three times before taking any action.”
Chou Fu nodded. “I’ll have to trouble Mister Lu to conceive a course of action.”
Mister Lu also nodded in response. “Allow me to think it over tonight and inform Vassal Prince tomorrow.”
Suddenly, Chou Fu heard his mother’s voice outside, so he dismissed Mister Lu with a wave of his hand.
The Vassal King Consort of An’nan, Wu Hongmo, walked in while holding a bowl of ginseng soup herself. She handed it to her son, remarking with heartache as she examined him, “Fu’er, you’ve thinned down a lot. The campaign must have been arduous.”
“No, it was not, Mother.” Chou Fu pulled his mother to a seat before telling her in seriousness, “I have already heard about Younger Sister’s matters. However, I have not been able to grasp the exact situation this whole time. Could Mother tell me the details?”
Upon discussing Hui’an, the Vassal King Consort of An’nan couldn’t help tearing up, grabbing her son’s hands as she wept. “Fu’er, you have to avenge your younger sister.”
“Your younger sister died too tragically!” Wu Hongmo gnashed her teeth upon speaking about Hui’an. “It’s all because of that crown prince consort. That b*tch was the one who harmed my daughter.”
Thereupon, she thoroughly retold the events from beginning to end to Chou Fu.
When Wu Hongmo got to the part where the crown prince consort didn’t hesitate to crush Nian Kui’s soul in order to kill Hui’an, her face was strewn in tears.
“That b*tch wasn’t willing to let off your younger sister even after she got disfigured. Upon meeting your younger sister at Xixia Valley, she despicably wounded her severely during the competition. She used some kind of witchcraft to hoodwink His Highness the Crown Prince, instigating His Highness to burn your injured younger sister to death! Ahh, my Hui’an, my pitiful daughter, you really died too tragically.”
“I wanted to avenge your younger sister. I wanted to poison that d*mned crown prince consort so that she would die. Yet who knew that she was actually well-versed in medicine. Not only did she see through me, she also threw… your younger cousin Xiaosu into prison to be detained for a full one month.” Upon recalling this, Wu Xiaosu could not help but be melancholic, and she sobbed while exclaiming, “Your younger cousin was finally released from prison two days ago, but was that still a person?”
“You didn’t see her! Your younger cousin was all skin and bones and in such a miserable state! I truly, truly do not have the face to see your uncle. I was the one who harmed Xiaosu! It was me!”
“Mom.” Chou Fu circled his mother’s shoulders and placated, “Do not grieve any more. I will think of a plan to resolve this.”
A cold light flitted across Chou Fu’s eyes. “Even though I did not see that crown prince consort today, I have received a taste of her sinister methods.
“I heard my subordinates report that if it were not for the crown prince consort insisting on killing Nian Chong, the crown prince would not have done anything to Nian Chong, nor would he have thought of submitting an impeachment memorial against me.”
“Like I said, she is a witch that brings calamity to the country and the people, but His Highness the Crown Prince has been infatuated by her beauty,” Wu Hongmo spoke fiercely.
