Chapter 785: She’s Not Ah Ruan’s Child
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Wanning City was more than lively and prosperous, but Jiangsai City was more silent. It was the 24th year of Minghua, the seventh day of July, and it was extremely hot.
It had been more than two months since Ah Yu and the others went to the underground palace.
They stayed in the palace for a total of three days. Not only did they find a case, but they also found the jade pendant and the ancient words of West Wind Nation on the jade pendant.
In addition, they had moved most of the wealth in the underground palace. As the palace began to collapse, they couldn’t continue to move the remaining portion. They could only let it be buried under the yellow sand for the fated people to pick up later.
Other than this, they also found some scattered items. Ah Yu also discovered new words carved on a wall.
Meatbail used the Origin Space points to exchange for the era evidence and knew that it was left about 12 years ago.
It was clearly not from the same period as the other murals in the underground palace.
After that, Ah Yu memorized the contents and copied them. When Shi Zhou saw them, he told her that the jade pendant and the words carved in the palace were all ancient words of the West Wind Nation. They were special words that only the royal families of the West Wind Nation knew.
It was something even ordinary royals could not touch.
Although Shi Zhou was a noble of West Wind Nation, he was not an agent of the royal family. He could only be said to know some things, but he could not understand what it meant.
Just as Shi Zhou was about to bring these things back to West Wind Nation and find the imperial family’s agents to crack it, a group of uninvited guests arrived at Jiangsai City.
It was Ouyang Changjing and the others, who had once met Ah Yu. He was also the Crown Prince of the West Wind Kingdom.
When Ouyang Changjing saw the contents of the words, his expression changed drastically.
Seeing Ah Yu’s expression, he was even a little suspicious. “These are the words left behind by Ruan Ruan.”
King Xiaoyao’s expression immediately changed. “Really?!”
He already knew that back then, Ah Ruan was the little princess Ruan Ruan of the West Wind Kingdom, a favored daughter of heaven.
It was also because of this that during her time in Wanning City, she could quickly attract the attention of him, Empress Qin, and the others. In a short period of time, the few of them became close friends.
However, at that time, they did not know about the various connections to Ah Ruan, which caused her to fall into a dangerous situation.
If King Xiaoyao knew that someone was chasing after her behind her back, how could he have waited until she was bullied to such an extent?
Thinking of this, King Xiaoyao was very dissatisfied with the people of West Wind Nation. A doted princess was already living such a miserable life, so how could he trust these so-called family members?
Ouyang Changjing was a smart person. How could he not know that King Xiaoyao was interested in his sister?
Even if his sister was gone, he still could not stand this distant admirer.
It was just that due to his personal cultivation, he did not show his displeasure on his face.
Ah Yu did not think too much about the storm between Ouyang Changjing and King Xiaoyao at all. She only asked, “Uncle Ouyang, what does it say?”
“It says that she accidentally entered this place with her child and did not destroy the furnishings inside. However, she realized that it was very likely that there was an ancestor of our West Wind Nation’s royal family in the tomb. It was just that she was in a hurry and did not have the time to investigate further. She hopes that the fated person will see them later and can continue investigating.” Ouyang Changjing finished speaking in one breath with a complicated expression.
“She brought her own child?” Ah Yu caught the main point. “Does this mean that Princess Ruan Ruan actually has other children?”
“What she means is that it’s the only child in her life.” Ouyang Changjing said with some difficulty.
Ah Yu fell silent.
She understood that this meant that the so-called Princess Ruan Ruan was not her mother.
Previously, everyone had made a mistake.
Ah Yu pursed her lips. Under the silence of the others, she pretended to be relaxed and said, “What’s wrong with that! 1 didn’t say that I’m the princess’s child to begin with. Moreover, I have a Mother. She likes me very much.”
This was also the truth. However, too many people had told her that Princess Ruan Ruan was very likely her mother.
Including the elf.
She believed it and thought that she was. She even made a long mental preparation for this and thought about how to deal with it.
She did not want her current Mother to be sad.
Now that he said that she was actually not, she heaved a sigh of relief. But at the same time, she felt an indescribable sense of loss.
This feeling was indescribable.
Ouyang Changjing looked at the “evidence” in his hand. It was undoubtedly his sister’s handwriting.
But no matter how he looked at the girl in front of him, she looked like his sister back then.
How could they say that she was not?
