wei ting returned the swallowtail dart to su xiaoxiao. “i’ll investigate its origin later.”

su xiaoxiao put the swallowtail dart back into her pouch. “speaking of which, isn’t guo huan afraid that the matter will be exposed after assassinating my grandfather?”

wei ting thought for a moment and said, “he should be planning to leave no evidence. although he has the dagger my sixth brother gave him, it’s not impossible to lie that the dagger was stolen or that he had long lost it.” su xiaoxiao felt that it made sense and asked, “will he frame su li?”

wei ting said, “no, he can’t produce any evidence that su li impersonated him.”

su xiaoxiao continued, “there’s been no news of su li. i wonder how he is.”

wei ting comforted her. “the grand astronomer has already sent someone to inform the marquis of zhenbei’s estate. the su family will look for him.

moreover, i guess he shouldn’t have fallen into the hands of the white lotus society. otherwise, the white lotus society would have long used him to exchange for division leader chen.”

qin canglan captured division leader chen.

the dali temple had spent a lot of time and energy to capture guardian he, and it was with the help of wei ting and the qin family army.

as for qin canglan, he captured a division leader alive.

as her understanding of qin canglan gradually deepened, su xiaoxiao really admired this general.

he had experienced the deepest pain in the world and the pain of being separated from his loved ones.

after wasting half his life, he should not have died here. guo huan was not worthy!

“you don’t have to worry too much about su li. this kid even gave the old marquis a headache. he wouldn’t be caught so easily. he’s very smart.”

wei ting praised someone for once.

su xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

wei ting brought her porridge bowl over. “go rest. i’ll handle the rest.”

thinking of something, wei ting said, “actually, it’s good to stay in the imperial astronomy center. no forces of the white lotus society will infiltrate here.”

not only did the forces of the white lotus society infiltrate the imperial guards, but they also infiltrated the dali temple. even the palace was probably not spared.

according to the information gathered by the imperial court, the white lotus society had only developed for more than ten or twenty years. however, since the white lotus society had a huge network of influence, wei ting seriously suspected that it was far more than that.

su xiaoxiao said, “actually, i still have two questions i can’t figure out. how did su li expose himself? how did the white lotus society track guo huan to his prison?”

wei ting said, “the answer to the first question should be at the guo family.

the exact time of exposure is before going to the temple to pray.”

su xiaoxiao asked in confusion, “then he was exposed long ago? why didn’t the people from the prime minister’s estate expose him?”

wei ting calmly analyzed, “because if he is exposed publicly, they would alert the enemy. on the one hand, they don’t want us to kill guo huan. on the other hand, they want to buy time to find guo huan.”

“so how did they find him? only yuchi xiu and fu su are guarding him. even i don’t know where you locked guo huan up. unless…”

su xiaoxiao thought of a possibility.

she looked at wei ting.

wei ting’s expression was calm. “there’s another mole.”

“aiya! they’re fighting! they’re fighting! someone’s fighting outside! lord wei!

it’s your subordinate!”

the official registrar of the imperial astronomer center called out from outside.

he was just a clerk and was usually very idle, but tonight, overnight, he had experienced all the shocks of half his life.

wei ting and su xiaoxiao left the imperial astronomy center.

the officials at the door had already left, and the surrounding commoners had dispersed.

on the limestone floor that was washed by the rain, fu su and yuchi xiu fought.

the two of them were injured.

fu su was stabbed by guo huan’s sneak attack and was even more seriously injured.

yuchi xiu’s body was lightly injured.

in addition, his martial arts were above fu su’s, to begin with. he almost suppressed fu su and beat him up.

although fu su was at a disadvantage, he had no intention of begging for mercy. he risked his life to fight yuchi xiu to the death. wei ting said coldly, “the two of you, stop!” “no!” yuchi xiu punched fu su.

“whoever stops is a dog!” fu su kicked yuchi xiu.

wei ting walked over and separated the two of them with a palm in between them.

the two of them glared at each other angrily before stopping unwillingly!

“why did you fight?” wei ting asked.

yuchi xiu gritted his teeth and said, “he’s a traitor! he must have sold the news to the white lotus society!”

fu su flew into a rage out of humiliation. “you’re the traitor! that day, when i asked you where you went, you stammered and couldn’t answer! you even told me to shut up! don’t interfere in your business! tell me the truth! did you go to inform the white lotus society!”

yuchi xiu said, “f*ck you! i went hunting! if i don’t hunt, what will i eat? drink the west wind? what about you? where did you go after disappearing for so long! ”

fu su said, “i went back to the wei family! i have to go back to the wei family every month. it’s not like you don’t know! i told you! young master knows!”

fu su was a secret guard arranged by matriarch wei to stay by wei ting’s side. he had to report wei ting’s situation to matriarch wei every month.

it was not to the extent of surveillance. it was mainly because matriarch wei had lost her son and so many grandchildren. she really could not let her guard down.

wei ting asked, “did you mention guo huan to anyone when you returned to the wei family?”

“no, young master!” fu su said aggrievedly. “ever since i followed you, i’ve kept half of your matters to myself. if you didn’t let me leak the news of guo huan, i wouldn’t mention a word to the old madam.”

wei ting said seriously, “only the two of you brought guo huan there unless

guo huan leaked the news himself, but the possibility is very low.”

yuchi xiu glared coldly at fu su and said meaningfully, “so, there must be a mole between the two of us!”

fu su straightened his back and retorted without backing down, “you’re right!”

su xiaoxiao walked over.

she looked at yuchi xiu, then at fu su.

in the end, she stopped in front of fu su.

“miss su, why are you looking at me like that?” fu su asked. su xiaoxiao pointed at his robe. “take off your clothes.”

“what?” fu su suspected that she had heard wrongly.

yuchi xiu strode forward, took off his outer robe, and handed it to su xiaoxiao.

fu su exploded. “yuchi xiu, you’re crazy!”

su xiaoxiao touched the clothes. no.

her gaze landed on fu su’s belt and she pulled off the sachet hanging on it.

bne openea ana smrrea.

wei ting said, “is there a problem with the sachet?”

su xiaoxiao said, “it’s a mosquito repellent spice mixed with a bewitching fragrance. if you consume this bewitching fragrance in large quantities, it will gradually numb your senses.”

fu su looked at yuchi xiu and snorted. “no wonder i can’t beat you!”

yuchi xiu scolded, “stop f*cking pretending!”

fu su said angrily, “i’m not pretending!”

su xiaoxiao said, “it will only work if you take a large amount. wearing it won’t achieve that effect. however, this spice has been in the air for a long time, making it convenient to track. who gave you this sachet?” fu su paused and said in a daze, “old madam wei..”
