Xia Hongming did not expect that he would hurt himself like this.

After returning to the imperial mansion, Xia Hongming immediately instructed with a dark expression. Go and invite Master Wu Ju over.

The guard nodded. Yes.

Xia Hongming frowned when he remembered that just as he was about to sit down, the stool broke. Xia Hongming's face darkened. This bad luck was not over yet.

Wu Ju quickly came over. Looking at Xia Hongming, he said with a solemn expression, What did the Third Prince do? Why are you covered in bad luck?

Xia Hongming said angrily, It's all because of that psychic whom Wei Shilai recruited. I wanted to make her kneel. She said that if she did so, I'd be in trouble. I didn't believe her. As soon as she bent her knees slightly, I fell from my seat.

Xia Hongming took out a black triangle thing. Also, the talisman you gave me is destroyed. I can't use it anymore.

Oh, so she's here in the capital.

Wu Ju took it from Xia Hongming. The triangle was no longer in its original state. Wu Ju twisted it with his fingers and it turned to ashes.

Xia Hongming frowned. Master Wu Ju, do you know her?

Wu Ju smiled faintly. Kind of.

He reached out and dispelled all the bad luck on Xia Hongming. You are safe now.

Xia Hongming felt like tons of weight was taken off his shoulder. He heaved a sigh of relief. Master Wu Ju, how's her ability?

Wu Ju glanced at Xia Hongming. The prince's ambition was so consuming that he couldn't hide it anymore. Wu Ju's gaze landed on Xia Hongming's brocade robe. That lifelike black python embroidered on it could become a dragon with a few strokes.

However, only the emperor and the crown prince could wear robes embroidered with a dragon. The emperor could wear a dragon robe with five claws while the crown prince could wear a dragon robe with four claws. The other princes could only wear cranes and python robes.

Wu Ju smiled. No one can defeat the chosen one.

Xia Hongming narrowed his eyes. Master Wu Ju, since you know her, can you recruit her to work for me?

Wu Ju smiled. I can't guarantee that. If we're on the same path, there's naturally no problem. If we're not on the same path, I can't force her.

Xia Hongming looked at Wu Ju and felt a little angry, but he suppressed it. He drew a deep breath and said, Master Wu Ju, please help me.

Wu Ju nodded and replied. Of course. I was recruited by you, so I naturally have to work hard for you.

Xia Hongming was satisfied with Wu Ju's attitude. He waved his hand and said, Master Wu Ju, go and rest. Also, please draw a few more talismans for me.

Wu Ju nodded. Okay, just have someone fetch it later.

Xia Hongming nodded. Wu Ju was a capable psychic, stronger than all the psychics he had recruited earlier, though he didn't know why Wu Ju agreed to work for him so readily. Xia Hongming had done a background check on him. Other than avenging his father and mother, he had nothing else to ask for.

Wu Ju turned around and was about to leave when he seemed to have thought of something. He paused and turned around. Third Prince, don't interfere in Miss Liu's matter for the time being. You can just sit back and watch. Even if you can't recruit her, don't become enemies with her.

Xia Hongming looked at Wu Ju, wanting to see something in Wu Ju's eyes. However, from the beginning to the end, the psychic had the same calm expression. He nodded at Xia Hongming and left.

After Wu Ji left, Xia Hongming fell into deep thought.

Didn't he take a fancy to the beauties I gave him? Xia Hongming asked solemnly.

The servant lowered his head and replied. No, however, Master Wu Ju didn't chase them away. Even if they used all their methods to seduce him, Master Wu Ju wouldn't be moved. Miss Ruyan said that he's a monk and has no desires. At the least, sexual seduction is useless.

Su Ruoyan was the courtesan of the Yuqiong Pavilion in the capital. She could steal the hearts of men with just a smile. If she couldn't seduce Wu Ju, no one else could.

Xia Hongming instructed. Let's wait and see for now. Inform me of anything that happens in the Xuanyi mansion. I want to see how capable this Liu Sanniang is.

The servant nodded. Yes.

Xia Hongming waved his hand. Leave. Don't disturb me if there's nothing important.

Xia Hongming turned around and entered the inner room. He sat cross-legged and meditated with a dark expression. It took him a long time to feel a slight power entering his body. Was cultivation difficult for him simply because he was an ordinary person?

As for the chosen ones, they were all blessed by the heavens. Even if they were young, they could still achieve great things in cultivation.

Why was it so unfair?

He wanted to see how a young girl was going to get to the bottom of this case and protect Wei Shilai.

In the Xuanyi mansion.

After the Third Prince left, Liu Sanniang suggested visiting Wei Shilai. Mrs. Wei felt guilty and grateful. Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan came from afar and did not even have time to relax and eat yet.

Liu Sanniang looked at Mrs. Wei and said with a reassuring smile, Madam, there's no time to lose. Let's go.

Mrs. Wei nodded with a smile. Miss Liu, you're really admirable.

She still felt bad about asking Liu Sanniang to come all the way here from Yong County, but Liu Sanniang did not mind because in any case, the Third Prince, Xia Hongming, would go out of his way to force her to come.

Wei Shilai was detained in the prison of the Xuanyi mansion. He was only temporarily detained and had not been removed from his official position yet. When Liu Sanniang saw him, Wei Shilai was still working.

When Wei Shilai saw Liu Sanniang, he was a little shocked. Miss Liu, why are you here?

I was the one who wrote to Miss Liu and asked her to come over.

Mrs. Wei spoke up.

Wei Shilai frowned and looked at Mrs. Wei. Madam, you

Mrs. Wei lowered her head in guilt. Wei Shilai could not bring himself to criticize her. His wife did this for him. After all, he was the one who should feel guilty.

Liu Sanniang said flatly, Sir, you don't have to blame yourself. Even if it wasn't for you, I would have come to the capital sooner or later.

Wei Shilai frowned and lowered his voice. Miss Liu, the Third Prince is very ambitious. I didn't want you to come here because I don't want you to get involved in this mess.

He also had his own selfish motives. If too many psychics were present, it would disturb the stability of the royal court. The Third Prince was ambitious. His desire to recruit Liu Sanniang was obvious. Everyone had a weakness. Wei Shilai did not want Liu Sanniang to come because he was worried that the Third Prince would find out Liu Sanniang's weakness and use it to threaten her to work for him.

Liu Sanniang smiled. Don't worry, I know what to do.

Wei Shilai looked at Liu Sanniang and felt a little guilty for not having enough faith in her.
