Chapter 396: Xinyue Is The Real Name

Han Wenji looked at the devastated state of the First Prince. "She is not the real Princess," Han Wenji was shocked to learn about her identity. Jian Guozhi's face had turned pale. "Father, I am hurt. First, my mother did not listen to me, and now, my first wife betrayed me. They both used me for their benefit. They both considered me incapable, that's why they chose such a path." Jian Guozhi lowered his head and brought his palm over his eyes. He was crying profusely. 

Han Wenji stood up from the chaise and went towards him. He patted his back. "You are not incapable, Jian. Do not blame yourself for all this. I also could not find that the real bride was murdered in the middle. This is the incapability of your father," asserted Jian Guozhi. 

"Father, I am tired of all this. I thought she would support me. However, she had come to kill me. I found out the secret message from her father to her in which she was tasked to kill me. I trusted her," Jian Guozhi lifted his eyes and met his father's gaze. There were tears all over his face. Han Wenji realized that Jian Guozhi was completely broken by all this. 

Eunuch Jin interrupted them. "Apologies, Your Majesty, your highness. The Fourth Prince is here. He had something important to inform you." He had lowered his head. 

"Tell the Fourth Prince to wait," Han Wenji stated when Jian Guozhi said, "Father, let him come. I am okay." Han Wenji told the same to Eunuch Jin, who nodded and walked out. 

After a while, Nianzu reached the inner chamber and saw the red eyes of Jian Guozhi. He bowed in front of them and then raised his head. "I am done investigating Huo Jin. He has been ready to tell us everything since the beginning, father," Nianzu informed Han Wenji, who hummed. 

"Shall we trust a traitor?" Jian Guozhi raised a doubt. 

"We shall. I take the guarantee," Nianzu assured them. 

"Brother, one traitor has already betrayed us. Trusting her ally is not right," stated Jian Guozhi.

"First Brother, you are absolutely right. However, Huo Jin was not completely disloyal to Tan Gengxin. It was more like he stayed for Sister Mi with him and accepted his orders. I have investigated more things about him. He never once harmed anyone while executing his missions. Huo Jin is trustworthy, and I believe that he will be a great jewel for the Han Empire," Nianzu took the stand for Huo Jin. He gazed back at his father, who drew his brows together. 

"Why does the Fourth Prince think that Huo Jin will be a great jewel for us?" Han Wenji questioned him. 

"Father, Sister Mi went out of the Palace to give Huo Jin a message regarding Su Feng and the other spies. She told him to take the message to Tan Gengxin, but he refused. Because he believes that the Han army will easily oust Tan Gengxin and his army- This Sister Mi told me, not Huo Jin.

He is a far-sighted person, and despite knowing everything about Han, he never used it against us. I believe such a man shall remain alive," Nianzu affirmed.

"Nianzu, it does not seem right. He might not use all this against us today, but maybe tomorrow," Han Wenji stressed his words.

"Father, Huo Jin even knows the secret route to your chamber. But he never shared it with Tan Gengxin or the late Empress Wei," Nianzu revealed the biggest truth in front of Han Wenji. Even Jian Guozhi was stunned to hear that. 

"Why did he not tell him? Since when is he living in the Capital, and how did he find out all this?" Han Wenji was bewildered. 

"He thinks Tan Gengxin will be a tyrant king. That's why he lied to him. He is in the Capital for a year. He has great spying skills and above that is good in warfare though he refrains from physical fights," stated Nianzu with a smile. 

"He might have told Tan Gengxin about the other things," Jian Guozhi affirmed. 

"I also thought the same. Huo Jin told me if he had told him then, the entire Royal Family would have died a long time ago," Nianzu proclaimed. Han Wenji could not believe that among so many traitors, a person was there who made the fool of those traitors. 

Han Wenji agreed to Nianzu. "I would like to meet him now," Han Wenji expressed his desire. Nianzu was glad to know his father's decision. 

Jian Guozhi stood up from the chair and took his leave. As Jian Guozhi walked past Nianzu, he stopped him. "Let's leave together, Brother." He looked back at his father and said, "Father, I will inform Commander Guo about your order." Han Wenji nodded while the two brothers left the chamber. 

Jian Guozhi was silent and so was Nianzu. They descended the stairs when the rain started pouring. Two servants came running to them with bamboo umbrellas in their hands. They covered the Princes from it. "We will drop his highnesses till the next building," the servant said.

Jian Guozhi refused and took the umbrella from him. He walked ahead while Nianzu followed him up, holding another umbrella. 

"I wish the Crown Princess did not fall into any trouble. The rain may get heavier then it will be difficult for them," Nianzu asserted. 

"I wish the same," Jian Guozhi replied. 

"Xinyue is the real name of your first wife." Jian Guozhi stopped and glanced at him. "Her one of the last wishes was to deliver her true name to you. She said do not ever forgive her," Nianzu stated. "Huo Jin told me that Xinyue does what she was taught since childhood. She wanted to look best in her father's eyes. She loves you that is why she dropped the plan to kill you." Nianzu briefed everything to Jian Guozhi. "This was the reason Huo Jin betrayed his master because he used his daughter," Nianzu proclaimed. Strong winds suddenly flew, taking away the umbrella with it from Jian Guozhi's hand. 

Nianzu had gripped his umbrella tightly and quickly went closer to Jian Guozhi. He grabbed the First Prince's arm to take him to the other side, and the wind kept blowing when Jian Guozhi jerked off his arm from his grip and walked away in the opposite direction, drenching in the rain.
