The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

"You don't have to be on guard against me. Your mother and I are old friends. I did this just to tell you something and repay her kindness." said Old Man Fu.

When it comes to Chu Qingyue, Shen Qingyan's heart begins to lift.

She discovered that her mother's influence was widespread, otherwise why would even the old man in the ghost market recognize her?

It’s a pity that in my previous life I was only concerned with making friends with Qin Fenglan and her daughter, and didn’t understand her at all.

After walking for about half an incense stick of time, I finally saw some light.

That is Mr. Fu’s home.

A dilapidated courtyard and two ramshackle wooden houses.

Shen Qingyan was even more confused. It was said that the things sold in the ghost market were rare treasures not available in ordinary markets, and there were even contraband items. Each item was sold at a sky-high price, so even if business was not good, they could still ensure food and clothing.

But looking at Mr. Fu's appearance, he doesn't seem to be well-off. Either his business is really in a very bad state, or he is pretending.

The room was very clean, so clean that there were only a few pieces of furniture, only worn-out tables, chairs, benches and a curtain, behind which was the bed.

"Ahem..." Mr. Fu coughed hoarsely a few times and said apologetically, "Please forgive me, ladies. My place is really simple. Please take a seat first. I will come after I change my clothes."

"it is good."

Mr. Fu opened the curtain and disappeared from their sight.

Qingmei looked around vigilantly and asked Shen Qingyan in a low voice.

"Sir, can this man be trusted? Could he be a bad guy? Why don't we leave quickly, just in case..."

Shen Qingyan knew her worries and patted her hands comfortingly.

"Don't be nervous. Even if he is a bad guy, I have my own way to deal with him."

The reason why she dared to say this was because the furnishings here were too simple, and there was no incense, let alone flowers or other decorations, which eliminated the danger of harming them through smell.

The teacup on the table was empty and showed no signs of having been used. Shen Qingyan had only one guess about this.

This is definitely not where Mr. Fu usually lives. I'm afraid he has another place to live.

Not long after, a figure lifted the curtain and walked out.

The moment Qingmei saw the person coming, her alertness reached its peak.

"Who are you?"

The man was about 40 or 50 years old, with black hair, no beard, and a medium build. He was looking at them calmly.

Shen Qingyan gave Qingmei a relieved look, stood up and said, "Mr. Fu's disguise technique is very good."

Mr. Fu raised his eyebrows in surprise, with a look of relief and appreciation on his face.

"As expected of her daughter, she is smart and clever enough. How did you figure that out?"

Qingmei was surprised. Was he the old man just now?

"Smell." Shen Qingyan said calmly, "A person's appearance and voice can change, but the smell on his body is unique."

There was even more appreciation in Mr. Fu's eyes.

"You are right. My appearance and voice have indeed been disguised. I am not called Mr. Fu. My real name is Fu Zhuo. You can just call me Uncle Fu."

Shen Qingyan immediately bowed.

"Uncle Fu."

Fu Zhuo was surprised and quickly gave her a helping hand.

"No need to be so polite. If your mother hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be alive to see you here now."

When talking about what happened in the past, Fu Zhuo's eyes turned slightly red.

"Back then, I accidentally offended a group of playboys, and they hunted me down for fun. When I fought back, I accidentally killed one of them, which led to the government's massive hunt for me. I was left with nowhere to go and almost committed suicide."

"Luckily I met your mother. She gave me hope to survive and gave me a place to hide."

"If it weren't for her guidance, I wouldn't have been able to find such a great place to live as the Ghost Market and hide there for more than ten years."

"When I was looking for an opportunity to repay her, I learned of her death."

Fu Zhuo's face was full of regret, and then he said angrily: "It's all the fault of that lustful dog emperor. If it weren't for him, how could Miss Chu have encountered so many setbacks and be harmed by a traitor? It must be that the dog emperor did this because he couldn't get the love he wanted!"

"What?" Shen Qingyan stood up suddenly, almost knocking over the wooden stool, "You said my mother's death was related to the emperor?"

Fu Zhuo was slightly startled, "You don't know?"

Shen Qingyan looked ashamed. She had always thought that her mother's death was caused by Qin Fenglan and her daughter.

"That's right." Fu Zhuo slapped his head in annoyance, "You weren't even there when those things happened, so it's normal that you didn't know."

Shen Qingyan felt her whole body numb and her mind went blank for a moment.

Her heart was pounding like thunder, and she asked with all her might.

"Uncle Fu, can you tell me the truth about what happened back then? I also want to avenge my mother."

Fu Zhuo thought for a moment, then took out a brocade box from his arms and handed it to her.

"This is a treasure that I risked my life to bring back from the West. It was almost snatched away by those playboys back then. Now I give it to you as a gift to repay your mother's kindness."

"As for the truth of that year, since your mother didn't tell you, it means she doesn't want you to know, so I won't say any more."

what?

The truth is about to be revealed, but he won’t tell you?

Shen Qingyan shook her head and said persistently: "Uncle Fu, I don't want to live in confusion and regret all my life. I want to know everything about my mother, including who killed her."

"Otherwise I will be restless and anxious all my life."

"Please tell me."

Fu Zhuo sighed, "Okay, but this matter is of great importance. You can't take revenge on your own. You need to think long and hard."

"Of course, if you can use me in the future, just let me know."

For the next hour, Fu Zhuo told everything he knew about Chu Qingyue's life.

Including how the emperor pursued her madly and caused a lot of sensation.

"At that time, your mother was a man of both literary and martial talents, extremely talented and beautiful, and kind-hearted. She was the object of yearning for men in the capital, but she never expected that she would be targeted by that bastard emperor."

"He tried every means to bring your mother into the palace, but your mother is a woman who longs for freedom. How could she go to a prison like the harem full of intrigue?"

"It just so happened that at that time, your father was not afraid of death and dared to compete with the emperor for a woman, so your mother cooperated with him and married him."

"At that time, your cheap father was just an unknown seventh-rank official. After marrying your mother, he rose through the ranks. In the year your brother was born, he became the prime minister."

"It's a pity that fate plays tricks on us. Who would have thought that the dog emperor would still have evil intentions towards your mother after all these years? He secretly sent people to kidnap your mother. They disappeared for a night, and when they came back, it was the emperor who brought her back."

"This matter caused a sensation and everyone in the city knew about it, but everyone was silenced and no one dared to say anything."

"Nine months later, your mother gave birth to you."

"Everyone is speculating that you are the emperor's child. The funny thing is that no matter how your mother explains, it's so pale and powerless that no one listens."

With a loud bang, something seemed to explode in Shen Qingyan's mind, causing her face to turn pale and her breathing to become unstable.
