“Father, students die in Dragon’s Gate all the time, so why can’t it happen to her? That way, our family won’t even be a suspect.
“Father, have you forgotten about my brother? He would never have died if it wasn’t for Feng Wu!
“Father, have you forgotten about His Royal Highness’ attitude toward Feng Wu?”
Of course Zuo Ming remembered everything. He even suspected that his bad luck recently had something to do with the crown prince.
The thought of the crown prince taking Feng Wu’s side alone was enough to infuriate Zuo Ming.
“Father, there’s also my sister…” That was the last straw.
Yes, they had to think about Zuo Qingluan’s future as well. If the crown prince really was in love with Feng Wu, what should Zuo Qingluan do?
The Zuo clan had invested everything in Zuo Qingluan.
Feng Wu had to die, and they were willing to pay any price for that to happen!
There was a cold look in Zuo Ming’s eyes.
“What’s your plan?” He looked at Zuo Qingyu.
He had realized that this daughter of his was becoming better and better at formulating strategies. She might actually lead this family to prosperity.
Zuo Qingyu lowered her voice and whispered in Zuo Ming’s ear. She didn’t say much, but everything was to the point.
All of Zuo Qingyu’s connections were in the younger generation, so she had to ask for her family’s help.
After some consideration, Zuo Ming said yes.
Zuo Qingyu flushed, and her eyes flickered with excitement.
“Qingyu, if your plan works, I’ll make sure you’re properly rewarded for it!” Zuo Qingyu put a hand on Zuo Qingyu’s slim shoulder and praised her.
Zuo Qingyu rubbed her hands in excitement. “Dad, I’m a part of this family, and it’s my duty to make it prosper. Although I’m a girl, it doesn’t make me any less devoted to this family!”
“Good!” Zuo Ming felt elated and conflicted at the same time. He had plenty of sons, but the two daughters were the best.
Zuo Ming said, “Talk to Uncle He. He’ll give you all the help you need.”
Feng Wu had no idea that the Zuo family was already on to her.
Night had fallen, but she was still looking at the painting.
She couldn’t understand why she still couldn’t find an answer.
There was a spring, some giant rocks, and flowing water.
And an eagle soared in the sky.
There was also a pine tree, a Chinese parasol, and a ginkgo tree.
She could hear Qiuling’s low voice outside the door. “Watch it. Don’t let the fruit fall. The noise will disturb Miss Wu.”
Chaoge asked, “How about I cut down this tree?”
Qiuling shook her head. “Don’t! Miss Wu brought it all the way here from the highest peak…”
All of a sudden!
An idea struck Feng Wu like a bolt of lightning!
She was enlightened!
Feng Wu had been an avid reader since she was little and had memorized the names of all the places in the Junwu Empire. Her eyes lit up.
If that soaring eagle referred to the highest peak, she remembered that there was a valley near that peak known as “Three Trees.”
It was a very straightforward name!
A pine tree, a Chinese parasol, and a ginkgo tree… Feng Wu looked around the painting and saw that those three trees were indeed the only distinctive ones.
Feng Wu let out a breath of relief. Finally, she had found the answer.
Jun Linyuan was indeed a very clever man.
By then, the sky was already turning light.
