The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1494

Chapter 1494: 729 Sister Complex (Second Update)_2

Old Master Han chuckled, "There’s no need for implications. After all, I am the Crown Prince’s uncle, and the Crown Prince has just visited the National Master Hall to see the deposed Princess. His Majesty and the Imperial Grandson were there as well."

It implied that he wasn’t particularly interested in the movements of the deposed Princess, but that it just so happened that the Imperial Grandson ran into the Crown Prince.

Considering that the Crown Prince was Old Master Han’s nephew, how could he not share such important news with Old Master Han?

Wang Xu looked deeply at Old Master Han, "Then, what does your visit to me have to do with this matter?"

Old Master Han said, "To tell the truth, I suspect that this Imperial Grandson is an imposter."

Wang Xu’s expression changed, "Why would you say that?"

Old Master Han said meaningfully, "The people from my mansion were transporting ore to Qidu, and they sent a pigeon back yesterday, saying that they saw the Imperial Grandson. Qidu is at least a seven to eight days journey from here, and I don’t believe that the Imperial Grandson could have grown wings and flown back."

Wang Xu furrowed his brow, "Do the people from your mansion recognize the Imperial Grandson?"

Old Master Han, as if he had anticipated this question, smiled and said, "You wouldn’t think that our Han Family, with its abilities, couldn’t get our hands on a simple portrait of the Imperial Grandson, would you?"

There certainly was a portrait, but the story of the pigeon carrying the message about encountering the Imperial Grandson was fabricated.

But how else would he pique Wang Xu’s suspicion?

Regardless of whether Wang Xu believed him, he would head to the National Master Hall to verify the claims for himself.

Gu Chengfeng clenched his fists tightly, this sly old fox, his tactics were formidable.

Wang Xu looked at Old Master Han with a serious expression, "So Old Master Han hopes that I will expose the Imperial Grandson?"

Old Master Han nodded without any reservation, "Indeed, exposing him is beneficial to our Han Family. That’s exactly my intention."

It was forthright and upfront to reveal his intentions. He just wanted to clear all obstacles for the Crown Prince. Everyone was wise, so why play innocent and hypocritical?

Wang Xu said solemnly, "If he indeed is a fake, then exposing him is part of my duty. Old Master Han, please take your things back with you!"

Wang Xu’s action was not for the Han Family, but for His Majesty!

Old Master Han insisted on offering the gifts, but Wang Xu firmly refused. In the end, under the helpless sighs of Old Master Han, Wang Xu took his leave.

Truly the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree!

Gu Chengfeng found this disheartening and really wanted to beat him, but with his current strength, he somewhat struggled to handle the two dead soldiers outside the door.

—He would never admit to being completely powerless.

One day, when he calls that girl over, he’ll bag you!

Gu Chengfeng went after Wang Xu.

Wang Xu had intended to return home, but after his conversation with Old Master Han, he decided to make a trip to the National Master Hall instead.

Wang Xu had once stayed at the Imperial Mausoleum for several years and taught the Imperial Grandson martial arts, although the Imperial Grandson didn’t learn a single move.

But they had spent a long time together and shared things that only the two of them knew. He would know whether the other party was the real Imperial Grandson after a single test.

As the carriage traveled for a while, he furrowed his brow and said to the coachman, "Stop for a moment."

"Yes," the coachman pulled the carriage to the side of the road.
