The daughter of the first wife is reborn and marries a rich family again
Chapter 198 Tacit understanding
"I understand, and this is my bottom line." Zheng Zhuohua nodded heavily.
Just as the two were about to discuss countermeasures in detail, hurried footsteps were suddenly heard outside the house, and a servant rushed into the secret room with a panicked look.
"Oh no! Prince Xiao has surrounded the Zheng residence with his men and said he wants to find Miss Yu to get to the bottom of this!"
Outside the secret room, Xiao Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, glancing coldly at the gate of Zheng's mansion. His majestic aura made the surrounding soldiers dare not breathe easily.
"Prince, is this... too radical?" the counselor at the side asked cautiously.
Xiao Cheng raised a meaningful smile: "No venture, no gain. Sometimes, forcing things a little can help you see the truth faster."
"Who are you? How dare you be so rude in front of the Zheng Mansion!" The guards of the Zheng Mansion stepped forward with swords drawn, trying to stop the momentum of the uninvited guest.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that Yu Caiwei must go with me now." Xiao Cheng's voice was not loud, but it clearly penetrated the noise and fell into everyone's ears.
The onlookers were whispering, their eyes moving back and forth between Xiao Cheng and the Zheng Mansion, as if waiting for a good show to begin.
"Isn't this Prince Xiao? How come the Prince has also started snatching people?" In the crowd, an old man in plain clothes shook his head, looking as if he was used to it.
"Yes, I heard that Miss Yu is extremely smart. I'm afraid all the young talents in the capital are attracted to her." The vendor next to him took over the conversation with a glimmer of envy in his eyes.
Xiao Cheng's follower Yu Jiang stepped forward and said to the guards, "Go and inform them immediately, so that the prince won't do it himself, which would be disgraceful."
The guards were embarrassed, but due to the power of Prince Xiao, they had to bite the bullet and report to the palace. A moment later, Zheng Zhuohua and Yu Caiwei walked out side by side and stood in front of everyone.
"Prince Xiao, why are you making such a fuss?" Zheng Zhuohua looked displeased and asked in a questioning tone.
Xiao Cheng took a few steps forward and looked directly at Yu Caiwei: "Caiwei, I came to you because I have something to ask of you."
Yu Caiwei raised her eyebrows slightly and stood still without making any noise. "Oh? What can I do for you, Master Xiao? Why don't you just say it?"
"I need your wisdom to help me uncover the conspiracy hidden in the dark." Xiao Cheng's words were frank and direct, causing an uproar among the people around him.
"Conspiracy? Where does Prince Xiao get this from?" Zheng Zhuohua asked vigilantly, his eyes moving back and forth between Xiao Cheng and Yu Caiwei.
"Mr. Zheng, this is not just my personal matter, it is also a major matter concerning the safety of the entire capital." Xiao Cheng's words were heavy, as if he was carrying a major secret.
The discussion in the crowd became more heated. Some were surprised, some were curious, and everyone wanted to find some clues from this unexpected confrontation.
"Hey, have you heard? Could the conspiracy that Prince Xiao mentioned be related to the frequent troop movements recently?" A young servant leaned close to his friend and whispered.
"Oh, that's going to be a big disaster! We'd better stay away from them to avoid being implicated." Upon hearing this, his friend immediately pulled him away from the crowd.
At this time, the Sixth Princess's motorcade also appeared near the Zheng Mansion. Her appearance undoubtedly added more unknowns to the storm. The Sixth Princess slowly got out of the car, her eyes wandered between Xiao Cheng, Zheng Zhuohua and Yu Caiwei, and finally stopped on Yu Caiwei, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.
"It seems that today is a lively day." The Sixth Princess said as she walked closer, and her every move revealed a temperament that was detached from the world.
"The Sixth Princess's visit, is it a coincidence or intentional?" Xiao Cheng put away his previous fierceness and adopted a polite and distant attitude.
The Sixth Princess chuckled. She did not directly answer Xiao Cheng's question, but turned to Yu Caiwei, "Sister Caiwei, it seems that you have become the most popular figure in the capital. Even I can't help but want to find out more."
"Sixth Princess, you are too polite. Caiwei is just a commoner. She is not worth mentioning." Yu Caiwei remained calm as always, and was neither humble nor arrogant in the face of the powerful.
"In that case, let's not waste time here." The Sixth Princess turned to Xiao Cheng and Zheng Zhuohua and said, "Would you two like to come with me to the palace to discuss this matter in detail? I believe that it is more appropriate to discuss topics concerning the fate of the country there."
The three of them looked at each other. Although they had their own thoughts, they all seemed to agree with the Sixth Princess' proposal. Seeing this, the people present made way for them, and the sound of discussion continued, with endless imagination and speculation about the upcoming meeting in the palace.
"It's going to be a good show now. The three masters have gathered together. I wonder what kind of sparks will be created."
"With the Sixth Princess taking action, things may not be that simple. The mystery behind this, I'm afraid only God knows."
As the three people left, the sky over the capital seemed to be shrouded in this unusual atmosphere, foreshadowing that a storm was about to come.
Night fell again, and deep inside the palace, the lights were on. In a secret room, the Sixth Princess, Xiao Cheng, Zheng Zhuohua, and Yu Caiwei sat around a table, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.
"Well, now you can tell each other what you know." The Sixth Princess broke the silence first. Her eyes were sharp, and it was obvious that she had a clear purpose for this meeting.
Xiao Cheng hesitated for a moment and spoke first: "According to my investigation, Ju Yuhui is colluding with certain forces in the court and is secretly planning a subversion."
Zheng Zhuohua continued: "The information I got here coincides with that of Prince Xiao, and I also found that they seem to be looking for a lost ancient treasure."
Yu Caiwei raised her chin slightly, with a gleam in her eyes: "Although I don't know what the treasure is, I can be sure that they want to use me to achieve their goals."
The four of them were silent for a moment, digesting this information. Finally, the Sixth Princess spoke slowly: "It seems that we are all just pawns on the chessboard, but this chessboard cannot be played by them to the end."
"So, let's cooperate." Xiao Cheng and Zheng Zhuohua said this almost at the same time. They smiled at each other, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.
Yu Caiwei also nodded gently, "As long as it is for justice and for the peace of the capital, I am willing to fight alongside you all."
The Sixth Princess smiled with satisfaction. She raised the teacup in her hand and said softly, "Then, let us drink this cup together for this unknown battle and for the coming dawn."
In the secret room, the four people's cups clinked lightly, making a crisp sound. At that moment, their hearts were closely connected, facing unknown challenges together, and marking a new starting point for their own destiny.
A meteor streaked across the night sky, seeming to foreshadow the coming of change, and every corner of the capital seemed to be quietly waiting for the moment that would rewrite history.
