The four of them seemed to have been struck by lightning and revealed the same expression as Qin Canglan.
Wei Liulang muttered in shock, “Does she… not know that the window is not closed? Or has she gone crazy from King Nanyang’s stimulation?”
In the end, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t enter the pharmacy.
She went to open the door with a dark expression.
The five of them flashed into the courtyard.
Qin Canglan didn’t forget to flash back. He closed the window and helped his granddaughter settle the awkward event location.
Su Xiaoxiao walked out and saw a few men standing in the courtyard. Their postures were even straighter than steel pipes. She looked at them strangely.
“What are you doing?”
They shook their heads in unison.
Su Xiaoxiao was confused. “Have you been provoked by King Nanyang?” The few of them were silent.
“Go, go, go! Interrogate King Nanyang!” Qin Canglan, Su MO, Ghost Fear, and Wei Liulang found an excuse to leave the event location.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting suspiciously. “Aren’t you going?
Wei Ting narrowed his eyes dangerously and walked past her into the study warily.
He looked around inside, but there was no one.
“What are you looking for?” Su Xiaoxiao leaned against the door frame and asked.
Wei Ting asked coldly, “Who were you talking to just now?”
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression darkened. “You eavesdropped on me?
Wei Ting’s expression did not change. “No, I just heard a sound. When I wanted to knock, you opened the door and came out.”
Su Xiaoxiao stared straight into his eyes. “Are you sure?”
“Forget it if you don’t believe me. I can’t be bothered with you.”
After Wei Ting finished speaking with a cold expression, he turned around and went to the room where King Nanyang was imprisoned.
In the house, the few of them discussed how to deal with King Nanyang. King Nanyang’s situation was different from that of MO Guiyuan. Behind MO Guiyuan was the White Lotus Society. Many ot the White Lotus Society’s nests had long been destroyed by the imperial court. It could be said that they knew MO Guiyuan very well. If they killed MO Guiyuan, all the dangers would be resolved.
They did not know who was behind King Nanyang for the time being.
They could kill him, but if his forces were not eliminated, there would be hidden dangers.
“Torture,” Su MO suggested.
Wei Ting shook his head. “I’m afraid this move is useless against him.”
“Big Brother, do you have any good ideas?” Wei Liulang asked.
“I’m not your brother,” Ghostfear denied.
Wei Liulang had a bitter expression.
Ghostfear said, “I have to kill him, but not for the Wei family. It’s purely because I don’t like this person.”
Wei Liulang remarked, “Just make it up. Continue to make it up.”
Ghostfear continued, “Before killing him, there are two things to obtain. One is the register, and the other is the imperial edict.”
“What roster?” Wei Liulang was puzzled.
Wei Ting replied on behalf of Ghostfear, “There might be members of the royal family and palace on the list of all the officials who secretly interact with him.”
He could cast a net all over the palace and help the White Lotus Society infiltrate the various government offices. There were probably many people who had secretly colluded with him.
“I agree,” Qin Canglan said. “Since King Nanyang has returned to the capital, it’s impossible for him to hide for the rest of his life. His Majesty will discover him sooner or later. His Majesty can guess what we can think of. His Majesty will definitely start investigating this list. We’ll need to be faster than His
Majesty.”
With this list, it was equivalent to having something on those people.
An expert carrying a sword might not kill, but the weapon could prevent himself from being killed.
Wei Liulang scratched his head. “But how can we get the name list? Little
Seven, do you have any medicine that can make someone confess obediently?”
Wei Ting said, “Brother, are you referring to the Five Stone Powder? Taking this medicine can indeed cause mental confusion, but I’m afraid it’s not very effective on King Nanyang.”
This person’s willpower was beyond common sense.
Wei Ting paused and said, “I have a suggestion!”
Su MO frowned. “You mean…
Wei Ting nodded. “That’s right.”
The few of them understood.
Wei Liulang slammed the table. “No! I object! You’re betting Dahu, Erhu, and
Xiaohu’s lives! They’ll be in danger!”
Wei Ting said earnestly, “Sixth Brother, believe me. As long as you do this, they will be in the same boat as King Nanyang. As long as King Nanyang is alive, he has to protect them for a day.”
Wei Liulang said coldly, “Protect from that person?”
Wei Ting said, “Yes, the current King Nanyang is no longer the King Nanyang from ten years ago. The royal family owes our Wei family too much. It’s time for the Wei family to take revenge.”
Wei Liulang clenched his fists and raised his voice. “I don’t agree!”
“I agree,” Su MO said. “If the two tigers fight and both sides suffer, we’ll sit back and reap the benefits.”
Wei Liulang looked at him excitedly. “They’re not your sons. Of course you agree!”
“I agree too,” Ghostfear said.
Wei Liulang stood up. “Brother!”
Wei Liulang was anxious and looked at Su Xiaoxiao. “Seventh Sister-in-law, tell me!”
Su Xiaoxiao was like a different person from the social drama queen just now. She looked at Wei Ting deeply and said solemnly and calmly, “I trust Wei Ting’s judgment.”
At the Imperial Palace, Emperor Jing Xuan had just approved the memorial and he felt dizzy. He pressed his temples and went to bed under Eunuch Fu’s service.
However, just as he closed her eyes, Eunuch Quan hurriedly reported, “Your
Majesty! Your Majesty! Something happened!” Emperor Jing Xuan said impatiently, “I’ll go take a look.”
“Yes.”
Eunuch Fu came to the door, opened it, and glared at Eunuch Quan. “Why are you shouting in the middle of the night? Are you going to let His Majesty rest?”
Eunuch Quan looked inside and shouted, “General Wei requests an audience! He said that there’s an urgent report!”
Emperor Jing Xuan’s first reaction was that there was a war at the border. He lifted the blanket and sat up. “Summon!”
Wei Ting was led into the emperor’s bedroom by Eunuch Quan.
Emperor Jing Xuan was wearing a bright yellow pajamas. He sat on the dragon bed with a serious expression. “It’s late. Where are you urgently reporting?”
Wei Ting cupped his hands. “Your Majesty, it’s not an urgent report at the border.”
Emperor Jing Xuan was furious. He pointed at his nose and said, ‘Wei Ting! You’re lying to the emperor!”
Wei Ting did not look flustered at all. He said calmly, “The reason why I said this is because it’s even more urgent than an urgent report at the border.”
Emperor Jing Xuan said coldly, “It had better be! Otherwise, I’ll chop off your head!”
Wei Ting said seriously, “Your Majesty, please allow me to bring him up.”
Emperor Jing Xuan frowned. “Who is it?”
Wei Ting said, “A sinner is also a witness.”
Emperor Jing Xuan glanced at him indifferently. “What are you up to?”
Wei Ting cupped his hands again. “Your Majesty, please dismiss your left and right.”
Emperor Jing Xuan waved his hand impatiently. Eunuch Fu brought the palace servants away, leaving him alone to serve Emperor Jing Xuan.
Wei Ting asked his subordinates to carry the unconscious person in and place him on the shiny floor.
He was covered in injuries and blood. He was in a sorry state.
However, when Emperor Jing Xuan approached, he still recognized him at a glance.
“Ah!” Emperor Jing Xuan’s expression changed drastically.. He screamed and took a few steps back before falling to the ground!
