Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Chapter 135 Heaven's Way is Both Ruthless and Compassionate

On the other side, the General's Mansion.

Yu Chen was caught off the wall by armored guards in a rather disheveled state.

Because of his status as the Empress, the guards did not make things difficult for him.

Xie Buji and Shen Jiaojiao quickly emerged from the general's mansion, both looking excited as if they were certain of their victory.

Wu Nini followed behind them like a little tail.

Upon seeing Yu Chen, Shen Jiaojiao's smile deepened.

She said, "I'm sorry, Brother Yu Chen, it seems we're going to win this time."

Yu Chen frowned: "You've already connected the storylines?"

"Thanks to Nini for finding the crucial clue in the palace, we're going to find the director now." Shen Jiaojiao held Wu Nini's hand, looking very happy.

Wu Nini's cheeks flushed red. "No, no, I was just lucky—"

Yu Chen's suspicious gaze swept over the three of them, then he stepped aside: "Then you can go."

"Isn't Yu Chen coming along? It's finished now." Shen Jiaojiao was a little surprised. "You're... going to find my sister?"

She turned the corners of her mouth down slightly, as if she were somewhat disdainful.

However, Shen Jiaojiao's expression control was excellent, and no one noticed these subtle changes in her expression.

"Well, after all, I made an appointment with her to meet up." Yu Chen nodded, not feeling discouraged by their goal of winning the competition.

Instead, he shrugged and said somewhat relaxedly, "Since you're so confident, I'll wait for your good news."

Seeing that he was still unwilling to give up, Shen Jiaojiao stopped trying to persuade him.

Turning to Xie Buji and Wu Nini, he said, "Then let's go see the director."

Before they could speak, Yu Chen turned and left the general's mansion.

He thought he should go and meet up with Wu Zhao first, so he checked the live chat to confirm Wu Zhao's location.

Wu Zhao, who was in the Empress Dowager's palace, soon learned about Yu Chen's ordeal from the comments section.

She raised an eyebrow: "Oh? So the Imperial Concubine and the others have actually obtained all the clues and pieced together the story?"

Is it possible that someone can access the truth even faster than those who have experienced it firsthand?

Wu Zhao became somewhat curious.

After Yu Chen arrived and told her what he had heard from Shen Jiaojiao, she chuckled softly.

"What Wu Nini took from the Emperor Emeritus...could it be a letter from Xiyuan Kingdom to the palace?"

As soon as she finished speaking, viewers on the live stream expressed their surprise.

[Oh my god, how did you guess that?! Did you calculate it?]

【No, our boss followed the rules of the game and didn't use any other methods!】

[Why does this expert seem to know the story better than everyone else? Could it be that he's already pieced it all together?]

"What letter?"

Qi An asked curiously, "The main problem is that he didn't find any important letters in that room, did he?"

Wu Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Hmm... it should be a letter sent to an inside agent. That person is a palace servant in the Emperor Emeritus's palace; the most dangerous place is the safest place."

"Wu Nini, oh no, it should be that the young prince must have known all along that there was a traitor in the palace in Xiyuan Kingdom. That's why she was able to find the letter so quickly. The contents of the letter were probably that they had already contacted people in the palace to sabotage the rain-praying ceremony and cause chaos in Dongxuan Kingdom."

all hit.

Mo Dahai, staring at the monitor, was somewhat shocked. He looked at the person next to him and asked, "This script hasn't been shown to anyone else, has it?"

The person sitting next to Mo Dahai stared intently at Wu Zhao on the screen, a smile curving his crimson lips.

"Of course not. Does Director Mo think I would leak the exam questions to others?"

Mo Dahai smiled awkwardly: "How could that be? Of course I trust Mr. Ye's character..."

Isn't this too much of a coincidence? It shouldn't be a problem if he has reasonable suspicions, right?

The person sitting next to Mo Dahai was none other than Ye Linyan!

"I thought you would be the first one to appear in front of me..." Ye Linyan murmured, lost in thought as he looked at Wu Zhao on the monitor.

Mo Dahai didn't hear what he said clearly, but he did notice that Shen Jiaojiao and the others had come into view.

Unexpectedly seeing Ye Linyan here, Shen Jiaojiao quickened her pace even more.

Her cheeks flushed slightly as she breathed softly, "Mr. Ye, what a coincidence to see you here!"

Shen Jiaojiao's cat-like eyes widened slightly in surprise, making her look exceptionally charming.

Unfortunately, Ye Linyan's gaze remained fixed on the monitor, and he didn't look at her at all.

Mo Dahai coughed.

"Now that you're here, you can start telling me the whole story. This Mr. Ye is the owner of the script; once he nods in approval, we win!"

Shen Jiaojiao, who was initially a little sad, suddenly exclaimed with delight, "Really?"

"Then, may I begin?"

Ye Linyan then turned his gaze over for a moment: "Go ahead and speak."

Adjusting her expression, Shen Jiaojiao said, "The story should go like this..."

"His Majesty the Emperor and Consort Gui are a loving couple, but unfortunately, because the Empress has a higher status, she can only be a Consort. This can be confirmed by the love letters His Majesty wrote to Consort Gui in her room. In the letters, His Majesty calls Consort Gui 'my darling'."

As Shen Jiaojiao spoke, she glanced shyly at Ye Linyan.

Ever since she learned that Ye Linyan wrote the script, Shen Jiaojiao has been both excited and thrilled.

I can't help but wonder, His Majesty Dongxuan calls Consort Jiaojiao'er... does that mean Ye Linyan also wants to call her Shen Jiaojiao?

Wu Zhao, who had returned a few steps late, had just walked over when he heard Shen Jiaojiao's nonsensical story.

I couldn't help but twitch the corner of my mouth.

She rolled her eyes at Ye Linyan, but received a smile in return.

Two lunatics.

Shen Jiaojiao continued telling the story: "The Imperial Concubine and His Majesty definitely wanted to be together for a long time. His Majesty also wanted to ascend the sacrificial altar with the Imperial Concubine during the rain-praying ceremony. Unexpectedly, the Empress colluded with an internal traitor from Xiyuan Kingdom to try to trip up the Imperial Concubine during the rain-praying ceremony. The letter that the young prince brought out from the palace of the retired emperor can prove this."

"Although we didn't get to meet the Imperial Advisor, we can roughly guess that the clues from his side should be about the time of the rain-praying ceremony..."

"The Empress's plan is exactly what the Western Abyss Kingdom wants. The Consort's father is a great general. Since his daughter had an accident during the rain-praying ceremony, he certainly won't let it go. They want to use the rain-praying ceremony to cause internal strife in the Eastern Xuan Kingdom and then use the Consort's father's departure from the border to launch a war!"

Wu Zhao turned the ring on his hand.

Shen Jiaojiao is quite good at making up stories.

"This... Mr. Ye, do you think Jiaojiao is right?" Mo Dahai asked.

Ye Linyan looked at Gu Chen, who was slowly walking over from not far away, and then turned to look at Wu Zhao.

He smiled knowingly: "...Hmm, is she right?"

Meeting his gaze, Wu Zhao frowned: "Did you write this story?"

How is that possible...?

How could Ye Linyan know?

Gu Chen walked over and saw the gloating smile on Ye Linyan's face: "Nonsense, just trying to attract attention."

"Really? Mr. Gu seems to have studied scripts quite a bit. Why don't you tell us... what do you think of this script? Or rather, how do you think this story should develop?"

These seemingly provocative words made Gu Chen's expression even colder.

"They've been dead for three thousand years, so how things developed is a thing of the past."

Gu Chen's voice was indifferent. "Mr. Ye also said that this is just a story, a script."

"However, Mr. Ye's script is really not very good. My identity as a hostage... is quite interesting, though. Mr. Ye, do you really think that just anyone can guess the will of Heaven?"

—It's just the death of a palace concubine; the blood can be cleaned up. Do the gods care about the life or death of ants?

The ways of Heaven are unpredictable, and the gods are heartless!

"I simply love you and wish to be with you forever. What's wrong with seeking immortality? If the gods truly favor Dongxuan, let them bless us to be together forever!"

wrong!

Wu Zhao's mind was in turmoil, and the continuous excruciating pain made her close her eyes and feel dizzy.

He is not……

He is not heartless...

Suddenly someone's voice rang in my ears.

"Zhao Zhao!"
