Chapter 117: The Search
The Minister of Revenue was staying in his residence, reading books in his study.
"Dad, I have some good news to tell you."
The Minister of Revenue's daughter came directly to him.
The Minister of Revenue had some doubts.
"Father, the son of the Minister of War has told his daughter that he wants to marry her."
Yan Ruyu said happily.
Yan Ruhua heard what Yan Ruyu said.
He couldn't help but ask Yan Ruyu about it.
"Do you really like the son of the Minister of War?"
Unexpectedly, Yan Ruyu told Yan Ruhua.
"His daughter and he were childhood sweethearts."
At this moment, the Minister of Revenue's subordinates came to find him.
But upon seeing Yan Ruyu, the subordinate remained silent.
The Minister of Revenue understood that his subordinate definitely wanted to report something.
Finally, he turned his head to look at Yan Ruyu.
"I'll discuss this matter with you later, how about that?"
Although Yan Ruyu did not know what this person and Yan Ruhua were going to discuss.
But in the end, he still left that place.
After Yan Ruyu left.
"Your Highness, the Princess has returned to the Princess's residence."
Upon hearing this, the pen in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
He never imagined that his meticulously planned assassination would fail again.
He felt a surge of anger.
Why are we experiencing one failure after another these days?
Was it really because Gan Luo had a lucky life?
Despite being on that precipice thousands of feet high, Gan Luo was still able to return alive.
In that instant, Yan Ruhua almost began to doubt whether Gan Luo could be resurrected.
"Are you sure the princess has returned to her residence?"
"That's certainly true of you, sir."
Gan Luo returned to the princess's residence and went to find a doctor to examine Lin Fengmian's injuries.
Then he sent someone to the Shadow Hall to invite the divine physician over.
The divine physician was leisurely playing chess with the leader of the Shadow Hall in the Shadow Hall.
But what he never expected was that someone from the princess's residence would actually come to invite him.
At that moment, the divine doctor felt a little bitter.
"Alas, this divine physician had just sat down to play chess with the two hall masters, when unexpectedly..."
"I will go with you. It has been so long since I last saw Her Highness the Princess. I wonder how she is doing?"
Upon hearing this, the two naturally headed towards the princess's residence.
When Gan Luo learned that the Shadow Hall Master and the Divine Physician had arrived, he was somewhat surprised by the arrival of the Shadow Hall Master.
However, Gan Luo also went to meet them today.
The leader of the Shadow Hall inquired about Gan Luo's health.
"I am almost fully recovered. Thank you for your concern, Master."
At this moment, Lin Ruohua was naturally standing behind Gan Luo.
The moment the hall master saw Lin Ruohua, he was shocked.
This Lin Ruohua is clearly her appearance.
I never imagined that there would be someone in this world who looks so much like her.
Gan Luo noticed that the leader of the Shadow Hall kept his eyes fixed on Lin Ruohua.
He remained remarkably calm, while Lin Fengmian was somewhat bewildered.
"Master, why are you staring at Miss Lin?"
This question was posed by Lin Fengmian.
Lin Fengmian really couldn't understand why the Shadow Hall Master kept staring at Lin Ruohua.
Lin Ruohua was also very curious. Upon seeing this person, she felt a sense of familiarity for a moment, as if the two of them had known each other for a long time.
Several people came to the front hall.
At this moment, the leader of the Shadow Hall removed his cloak and then took off his mask.
What came into view was Rong Yan, who looked almost exactly like Lin Ruohua.
Lin Fengmian had always believed that the leader of the Shadow Hall was a man, but now he discovered that she was actually a woman.
Even more importantly, Lin Ruohua looks remarkably similar to the leader of the Shadow Hall.
Then the leader of the Shadow Hall asked Lin Ruohua if she had a jade pendant.
Lin Ruohua took out a jade pendant.
When the hall master saw the jade pendant, he knew that it belonged to his long-lost daughter.
"You are my daughter."
When Lin Ruohua heard those few simple words, she couldn't believe it.
"You're definitely lying to me. How could I possibly be your daughter?"
Even though his own parents treated him so well.
Although his parents later died in a fire.
If it weren't for this reason, I wouldn't have met Gan Luo today.
The Shadow Hall Master's expression was rather unpleasant; she lowered her head and clenched her fists.
How should she explain this to Lin Ruohua?
"The sect leader is actually a woman."
These words were spoken by Green Bamboo. Green Bamboo never expected that the head of the hall would actually be a woman.
Even more important is why Gan Luo remained so calm.
Did Gan Luo already know that the leader of this hall was a woman?
Gan Luo noticed that Green Bamboo was staring at her.
"I know the true identity of the Hall Master."
Green Bamboo's eyes widened in that instant; she never expected that Gan Luo would know.
"Lin Fengmian should know the rules of natural concealment, right? It has always been passed down only to men. If the world were to find out that I, the head of this hall, am a woman, then..."
Although the rest of the sentence was left unsaid, Lin Fengmian understood.
Those present understood.
Then the leader of the Shadow Hall spoke to Gan Luo.
"Your Highness, I would like to speak with Ruohua alone. Would Your Highness be willing to grant me some privacy?"
Gan Luo will definitely agree to it; there's absolutely no problem with that.
In the end, they all left.
However, only Lin Ruohua and the leader of the Shadow Hall remained here.
Lin Ruohua's attitude towards the hall master was very bad.
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
“I know you resent me, but I had no choice but to do it.”
The leader of the Shadow Hall then told Lin Ruohua the whole story of what happened back then.
Even after learning about some of the misunderstandings, Lin Ruohua still couldn't accept the sudden appearance of a mother.
“Your Highness is right. Rules are made by people. When I return this time, I will announce my identity and then change the rules.”
"This had nothing to do with me at the time. I was a servant of the princess, so I would always stay by her side."
The leader of the Shadow Hall had long anticipated that Lin Ruohua would say that.
"I won't force you to do anything you don't like; I just want you to be happy."
The two chatted for a while.
They have now reconciled.
However, Gan Luo could sense that Lin Ruohua was still unwilling to call the Shadow Hall Master's wife.
It seems this matter needs to be handled slowly.
The most urgent task at present is to deal with the Minister of Revenue.
