Zhao Chuchu was reborn in a time before the apocalypse. As soon as the space was filled with supplies, something fell from a high altitude and killed her. Then, she transmigrated, becoming a small villager in an unknown dynasty. She started this new life by taking out the natives, dealing with the plague, and becoming a divine doctor in one fell swoop. Using her fists, she gained high status. She bullied those scums until they cried for their mommy and begged for mercy. She produced large quantities of rice, beans, and sweet potatoes… She could do everything, and she earned a lot of money with that. Everyone watched as she reconciled with Xiao Xiucai. They watched until a baby was born, as well as until Xiao Xiucai became the top scholar and smoothly became the Chief Minister. Then, everyone waited for the day the Chief Minister would divorce his wife, who went through hardships in life with him. They waited and waited until the couple had grown old, the two living together for the rest of their lives.

Xie Heng did not have any reason to lie to her.

Zhao Chuchu pondered for a moment and realized his words made sense. After all, members of the imperial family prioritized their own status in the court over their relationships as fathers and sons.

The Emperor had been in power for a long time. He would be unwilling to relinquish it.

Moreover, the family of Empress Yuan was very influential. The Emperor was probably worried that the Qiao clan would support the Third Prince, or Junjun, to be the next Emperor, so he decided to act first.

"Understood. I will be careful," answered Zhao Chuchu as she considered various possibilities in her mind.

Even if she neutralized the Third Prince's poison, she would do it secretly. They could not let Imperial City learn about their involvement; otherwise, Xie Jun's background would be easily exposed.
