Chapter 645: The Truth
Their little princess also disappeared in that turmoil.
Yue Li was responsible for protecting the princess. At that time, Yue Li also disappeared with the princess, along with Lu Shu.
Lu Shu is the successor of the Lu family's disguise technique. If Lu Shu is really with them, with Lu Shu's ability, it is still possible to help them disguise themselves and escape.
The power of the Ghost City is absolutely impossible for outsiders to destroy, but that turmoil was the betrayal of the city lord's most trusted brother who had been through life and death.
At that time, the lady died and the city lord was also seriously injured.
The city lord was in a coma for five years before he woke up.
Then the city lord started looking for the little princess.
The city lord came forward, and things went smoothly. The little princess was quickly found. At that time, the little princess was kidnapped by a group of kidnappers. Fortunately, the city lord rushed over in time, and nothing happened to the little princess.
Naturally, the group of kidnappers did not end well, but the person handling the matter later said that one of them escaped.
However, nothing happened to the little princess at that time. They wanted to take the little princess back to the Ghost City, so they left the rest of the matter to the people over there.
The little princess and the madam look very similar, not to mention exactly the same, at least 70-80% similar.
But at that time, the city lord still had a paternity test done, and the paternity test proved that it was indeed their little princess.
In the past, the city lord held the little princess in his hands for fear of dropping it, and held it in his mouth for fear that it would melt. The city lord regarded the little princess as more important than his own life.
But for some reason, I always felt that after the little princess came back, the city lord no longer loved her as much as before.
Moreover, the city lord didn't seem to be too concerned about anything. He didn't care much about the affairs of the ghost city. He just painted the portrait of his wife in the room every day, which lasted half a day.
Every time the city lord painted, he seemed to completely isolate himself and ignore everything outside.
When the housekeeper saw that his city lord was taking the painting seriously, he just stood quietly on the side, not daring to disturb him at all.
But the door was suddenly pushed open, and the princess stood at the door with obvious anger on her face. She started to accuse: "Dad, why can't you leave the affairs of the ghost city to Ayu?"
The butler's eyelids twitched and he sighed silently. It was no wonder that the city lord didn't like the princess as much as before.
Since the princess came back, things have really changed a lot. Their little princess used to be really lovable. The little princess inherited the city lord's high IQ and was very smart. The youngster handled things in an orderly and stylish manner.
He has the grace of a city lord.
Moreover, their little princess is polite, sensible, kind and cute.
But since the princess came back, she has completely changed. She has become selfish, cowardly, and even stupid.
Except for a face that looks very much like Madam, the rest is completely different from the little princess they used to have.
If the paternity test had not proved that it was their little princess, he would have suspected that it was someone else.
According to the princess herself, her brain was damaged when she left that year and she forgot a lot of things. The princess didn't even remember the things about Yue Li and Lu Shu.
At that time, they speculated that Yue Li and Lu Shu must be dead, otherwise the little princess would not have been kidnapped at that time.
As soon as the little princess was born, Yue Li was responsible for protecting the little princess. As long as Yue Li was still breathing, it was absolutely impossible for the little princess to be harmed.
Shangguan Hong, the lord of the ghost city, was still painting his paintings without any influence at all. He seemed not to have heard the princess's words.
"Dad, what do you mean? It doesn't matter that you refused to hand over the affairs of the Ghost City to Cheng Li before. Cheng Yu is your grandson, do you still want to be so guarded against him and push him away?
"When Shangguan Murong saw that the city lord didn't respond, the anger on his face became even more obvious.
Shangguan Hong still didn't react at all and continued to draw his paintings.
There was obviously a bit more hatred in Shangguan Murong's eyes, and there was even a hint of ruthlessness, and he walked in directly.
The housekeeper came over one after another and stopped in front of Shangguan Murong without leaving a trace. The city lord didn't like to be disturbed when he was painting his wife's portrait.
Seeing Shangguan Murong's menacing look, the housekeeper's eyes darkened slightly: "Princess, Acheng is now in charge of all matters in the Ghost City, and Acheng is handling it very well."
Shangguan Murong was immediately angry: "Why? Why should we hand it over to an outsider? If Cheng Li can't do it, then Ayu can't do it either?"
The housekeeper said patiently: "Acheng is not an outsider."
Acheng is the grandson of Madam's best friend.
Back then, my wife gave birth to a little princess, and my best friend gave birth to a baby boy, and then the two families decided to marry the baby.
The little princess is very satisfied with this baby kiss. The two grew up together as childhood sweethearts and have a very good relationship.
But after the little princess came back, she suddenly ignored the Meng family's boy, Meng Zhun.
After the princess married Cheng Li, Meng Zhun also married.
Meng Cheng is Meng Zhun's child. The city lord has become less and less interested in the affairs of the Ghost City over the years. Meng Zhun has been concentrating on researching technological matters over the years, and has no interest in managing the Ghost City.
However, Meng Cheng was extremely talented and ambitious, so the city lord gradually handed over the affairs of the Ghost City to Acheng.
Cheng Mei, the daughter of the princess, liked Meng Cheng very much and wanted to marry Meng Cheng, but unfortunately Meng Cheng was unwilling.
As for Cheng Li and Cheng Yu that the princess said, they really have no management skills.
Incompetent but greedy, the city lord will definitely not be able to hand over the ghost city to them.
So for so many years, including the princess, they have not been exposed to the core secrets and powers of the Ghost City.
It was obvious that the princess was getting more and more anxious now, and she even dared to come to question the city lord like this.
But the city lord didn't pay any attention to it, so the princess could only jump around, which was of no use at all.
Things are still how they should be.
"Dad, I am your daughter, your only daughter, and Ayu is your biological grandson. How can you hand over everything to an outsider? Would you rather trust an outsider than your biological daughter?"
"?" Shangguan Murong's face became increasingly ugly: "Aren't the lessons learned forty years ago not enough?"
"Princess, please be careful what you say." The butler's expression changed. What happened forty years ago was a pain in the heart of the city lord. No one dared to mention it in front of the city lord all these years. Is the princess crazy?
Shangguan Murong may have been really angry, and he said something indiscriminately: "What did you say? Did I say something wrong? If he hadn't trusted others back then, my mother wouldn't have died. Now I haven't learned a lesson, but...
More..."
Shangguan Hong finally stopped, raised his eyes and looked at Shangguan Murong: "Get out."
