Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Someone From the Palace

The fastest place to spread the news in the capital was the market. It was convenient, hidden, and easy to escape. It was very difficult for others to investigate.

When Zhang Ronghua was interrogated by the Crown Prince, on the street, there were various breakfast stalls.

There were more strangers. Although these people were disguised and dressed simply, they could not hide their auras as servants because their eyes were emotionless.

Delicious Tofu Shop.

Apart from selling tofu, there were also buns and fried dough sticks. The shop was very large and occupied a good location.

A young man dressed as a young master of a village sat on the table and deliberately exaggerated, “Have you heard? The Crown Prince is actually a woman!”

The surroundings were filled with diners. When they heard his words, their curiosity was raised.

Someone immediately retorted, “Nonsense! How can the Crown Prince be a woman? A woman is called a princess.”

The young man shook his head with an expression that said, “When I first heard this news, I was also very surprised, but my brother-in-law told me about this. He was from the Flood Dragon Guard and was working in the East Palace. He unintentionally saw the Crown Prince’s true body once and was so frightened that he could not sleep for the entire night, afraid that he would be silenced.”

Seeing that the conversation had become more and more intense, he had already achieved his goal. While no one was paying attention, the young man quietly left.

There were many things like this that happened in every corner of the capital.

In less than two hours.

The news that the Crown Prince was a woman spread throughout the entire capital.

In the East Palace.

Zhang Ronghua arrived at the side hall and walked in with his two subordinates.

Iron Demon and the other two were imprisoned together. Their cultivation levels were all sealed. Before they came, Iron Demon and Moon Fiend cursed and said all kinds of ruthless words. At first, Old Ghost was like a grandson, but later on, he thought about it and realized that everyone had been captured. It was impossible for them to escape even if they had wings. In any case, they were all dead. What was there to be afraid of? He cursed them all.

“Why did you stop? Continue,” Zhang Ronghua said.

“I’m willing to cooperate with you and lure the higher-ups of the Earth Fiend to the capital to set up an ambush and capture them in one go.”

“Shut up!” Moon Fiend berated.

“Send her on her way.”

A subordinate stepped forward, pulled out the Flood Dragon Sword, and pierced her heart.

This frightened Old Ghost and Iron Demon.

“Where’s the headquarters of the Earth Fiend?” Zhang Ronghua asked.

“The location is not fixed. It’s all one-way contact. Set up a temporary location and disband after doing this.”

“In that case, it’s useless to keep you?”

Old Ghost wanted to explain, but this subordinate sent him on his way with a strike.

After sizing up Iron Demon, his gaze landed on his dantian. This was a demon with the cultivation of the Connate Realm. He had already condensed a demon core. A demon core was a good thing. It could be refined into medicine and sold for money.

“Don’t kill me! I’m willing to hand over the demon core.”

“From the moment you fell into my hands, everything on you became mine,” Zhang Ronghua said.

He grabbed at the air.

A terrifying suction force erupted from his palm. Golden true essence landed on his body and roughly took out Iron Demon’s demon core.

It was the size of an egg and green in color, containing violent demonic power.

He took a look and put it in his arms before walking out. This subordinate dealt with Iron Demon and the two of them dealt with their corpses.

He arrived at the back hall.

Zhang Ronghua stood under the shade of the tree. This location was good and the sun could not shine. Beside him was an artificial lake filled with lotus flowers. There were also some sightseeing fish swimming around, admiring the scenery, and fishing.

Ma Ping’an hurriedly ran in from outside and rushed towards the Xuanhe Hall as if something major had happened.

“What’s going on?” Zhang Ronghua guessed in his mind.

An old eunuch called Eunuch Xiao walked in with two young eunuchs.

“Did anyone from the palace come because of this?”

Eunuch Xiao brought people into the hall.

Soon.

The Crown Prince walked out expressionlessly. It was unknown if he had intentionally or unintentionally noticed Zhang Ronghua who was slacking off, but he instructed, “Bring your subordinates and enter the palace with me!”

“Yes!” Zhang Ronghua replied.

He brought the entire camp of Flood Dragon Guards and followed behind the Crown Prince. When he arrived at the front hall, the carriage was already prepared. Eight Divine Heavenly Dragon Horses pulled a luxurious and imposing carriage. This was the Crown Prince’s carriage.

The Divine Heavenly Dragon Horse that pulled the carriage had the bloodline of a True Dragon and a Light Unicorn. It was sacred, noble, and symbolized supremacy.

Another one was the Xia Emperor’s carriage.

The two Flood Dragon Guards placed the cushion beside the carriage and the Crown Prince stepped on it to get into the carriage.

He left through the main door.

Zhang Ronghua led his people to open the way in front and rushed towards the south gate, commonly known as the Vermilion Bird Gate.

After entering the palace, the carriage continued forward until it stopped in the inner palace.

Further in was the important place of the palace. Unless there was a decree of the Xia Emperor, they could not enter.

The Crown Prince got out of the carriage and entered the inner palace alone.

Zhang Ronghua guarded the carriage and looked into the depths of the palace. He was even more puzzled. If the Crown Prince was a woman, how did he hide it from those people in the palace when he was born?

Even if his mother was the empress, she could not hide it for so many years.

If not.

Why did the person in the dark make a fuss about this? A fly should not stare at a seamless egg.

When he recalled the situation when he used the Clear Spirit Eyes to investigate, the Dynasty Fate of the Great Xia Empire was too strong. With the protection of the Dragon Qi, he could not see.

Then, she shook her head.

He was only a general, not the commander of the Flood Dragon Guard. Why was he so worried?

The Crown Prince went in for a long time and only came out two hours later.

His face was ashen, and his palms under his sleeves were clenched tightly. Even with his good temperament, he was still showing facial expressions. It could be seen how angry he was.

“Come here.”

Zhang Ronghua walked over and stopped beside him.

“How do I treat you?”

The Zhang family had been in the Flood Dragon Guard for generations. Zhang Ronghua’s grandfather was also a member of the Flood Dragon Guard. After he retired, Zhang Qin took over and passed it down from generation to generation.

Before this, the Flood Dragon Guard was in the hands of the empress and later handed to the Crown Prince. It could be said that the three generations of the Zhang family were tied to the Crown Prince. They were bound together for good or ill.

“Your kindness is as heavy as a mountain!”

“I’ll hand you something. You only have one day. If you can’t do it, the censor will impeach you. Your Zhang family will also be in danger. Do you dare to do it?”

Zhang Ronghua was speechless. From the moment you said this, there was no other choice.

‘If I reject, you won’t let me go.’

Although he was not afraid with his cultivation and could protect his parents and the others from leaving the capital, Great Xia was huge. If the empire determined to deal with him, no matter how strong he was, how could he go against the entire empire?

He nodded solemnly!

“Before I entered the palace, Hu Wensheng said that I was a woman and spread it in the capital. I want you to pry open his mouth and find out who instructed him,” the Crown Prince said.
