After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure (2)

Chapter 352: What else did she want?

It turned out that it had been divided into two parts.

The princess from the previous dynasty had one, and the general of the previous dynasty who held military power had one.

If one of them was captured or fell into the wrong hands, it would be useless for others who had obtained the treasure map.

It would be impossible to find it.

Only when the two of them combined could the real treasure map be useful after combining them together.

Thinking about it, it made sense.

The princess from the previous dynasty should be the only royal bloodline left from the previous dynasty, because the previous dynasty's emperor and all the princes had been killed by his father while his father was the emperor.

The previous dynasty's royal family wanted to restore their governance, so of course, they needed someone with royal bloodline.

The princess could not be the emperor, but her son could.

The royal family was also afraid that the general would take the treasure and rebel, so they gave him half of the treasure map.

Moreover, the princess also had the imperial jade seal and the hidden connections left behind by the previous dynasty.

Only when the people from both sides came together could the map be of the greatest use.

Otherwise, relying on one side alone would have no hope of reviving their governance of the nation.

This treasure was also the key.

Without money, how could they recruit soldiers and buy horses?

The previous dynasty's royal family was good at scheming, and they even made so many arrangements before the country was destroyed.

The emperor then asked Zhuo Jun, "Did you deliberately expose your identity as a woman in front of Xiao Hanzheng and guess that he would report to me?"

Zhuo Jun smiled bitterly, "There was indeed a deliberate exposure, but I am not sure if he would report to you. I only think that he is a smart person and has a high chance of reporting to you.

"I am surrounded by King Jin's men. All my movement is basically under surveillance, so I can only place my hope on Xiao Hanzheng."

She had also observed and tested him for a long time before she chose Xiao Hanzheng.

Firstly, she found that Xiao Hanzheng was a very smart and intelligent person.

Secondly, he was a person who was faithful and righteous.

This could be seen from his attitude towards his wife and family.

Lastly, Xiao Hanzheng was the only person she knew who could meet the emperor alone.

Because Xi Rong, the emperor's niece, could "bridge the gap".

In order to get rid of King Jin's control and to take revenge, she had been planning it since the hui examinations.

She deliberately showed hostility and displeasure towards Xiao Hanzheng's wife.

She heard that Shi Qingluo was very smart and had a good relationship with Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

The other day, she did not seem like an ordinary village woman.

There was a saying that women have a very accurate sense of those who eyed their husband, so she did this.

Sure enough, Shi Qingluo definitely felt it and told Xiao Hanzheng about it.

After that, Xiao Hanzheng tried to probe her.

It was also because she found out that Xiao Hanzheng was observing her that day that she deliberately took the opportunity to lean towards Xiao Hanzheng.

It was also to make it easier for him to find out that she was a woman.

Moreover, she was certain that the emperor had asked someone to gently bring her into the palace today instead of directly capturing her and interrogating her first, probably because Xiao Hanzheng was the one who discovered that something was amiss and suggested it.

This man was really quick-witted and his reaction was also very quick.

No wonder the emperor wanted to place him in an important position.

The emperor believed these words.

Since King Jin wanted to use Zhuo Jun to do things, he would definitely have his people keep an eye on her at all times.

Zhuo Jun was only a tanhua and had gone to the Imperial Academy.

Normally, she did not have the chance to approach him alone.

Thus, she was unable to report these matters to him.

If Zhuo Jun were to use another person to carry out such a plan, there was an 80-90% chance that this would fail.

Only Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng would react so quickly and feel that something was wrong.

Then, they would probe and secretly report to him.

This also proved that Xiao Hanzheng and his wife were his lucky stars.

It had to be said that Xiao Hanzheng was powerful, but Zhuo Jun was not bad either.

It was a pity that she was a girl.

Otherwise, if she really broke away from King Jin's control in the future, she would probably be a big shot.

The emperor pointed at the treasure map. "After using this to find the treasure and that would be all, or does it need something to open it?"

Zhuo Jun replied truthfully, "I also found a special large key in my mother's secret compartment, so I suspect that it might be needed to open the treasure."

The emperor asked, "Did you get that thing?"

Zhuo Jun shook his head. "I was afraid of being exposed, so I didn't dare to take it."

This was within the emperor's expectations. "So you decided to expose your identity and expose this. Other than wanting revenge, what else do you want?"

He did not think that Zhuo Jun had done so much just for revenge.

"For the sake of freedom, I don't want to be their knife anymore.

"I only hope that in the future, Your Majesty can grant me my freedom so that I can live as a woman."

She was clearly a woman, but she was forced to disguise as a man.

She endured the painful training of disguising herself as a man and had to take medicine every month.

She also wanted to wear dresses, wear jewelry, put on powder and rouge, and to stop covering up when she used the fragrance that women liked.

So she really hated her current identity.

To get rid of all this and restore her identity as a woman, only the emperor could help her.

After coming to the capital, she had been investigating and observing this emperor.

She found out that the emperor was indeed a wise and broad-minded person.

It was unlikely that he would kill her after using her.

Of course, no one could guess the emperor's thoughts.

If she was really killed, she would accept it.

At least she would no longer be under control.

If she could not have her own thoughts, what was the point of living?

Being able to avenge her father and herself was worthy enough.

After all, just relying on herself, it would be impossible to deal with those two people.
