Boss Lin looked at Wei Ting again.

Su Xiaoxiao’s first reaction was, could it be that the Sect Master had sent some news to Guo Huan?

Without batting an eyelid, she grabbed the dagger in her sleeve.

Once they exposed themselves, she would take her hostage.

Wei Ting said indifferently, “Why are you looking at me? I didn’t call Division Leader Chen over today. Division Leader Chen called me over. Division Leader Chen must have a plan.”

Su Xiaoxiao secretly gave her husband a thumbs up.

Division Leader Chen wanted to say something but hesitated. He looked at Wei

Ting doubtfully and asked, “I haven’t asked you what happened at the Dali

Temple that day. Did you really kill Wei Ting?”

Wei Ting looked impatient. “He’s my cousin on the surface. Did I kill him? Have I not exposed myself quickly enough? I was drugged…

Branch Leader Chen frowned and said, “Who drugged you? Wei Ting? Did he suspect you?”

Wei Ting said calmly, ‘With Wei Ting’s personality, if he really suspected me, do you think he won’t kill me on the spot?”

Branch Leader Chen thought about the rumors about Wei Ting and felt that this person was indeed not afraid of trouble.

How could he know that Wei Ting was indeed not afraid of trouble, but Wei Ting did not act impulsively? The impression the world had of him was only the impression he wanted others to see.

Division Leader Chen was puzzled. “Who’s plotting behind the scenes?”

Wei Ting said, “Does anyone in the capital know that I’m from the White Lotus Society?”

Branch Leader Chen asked, “Do you suspect the brothers of the White Lotus

Society?”

Wei Ting smiled faintly. “The brothers of the White Lotus Society are all loyal and won’t do anything to harm me. Even if they have disloyal thoughts, they don’t have the ability to reach out to Wei Ting. Ah, other than you, Division Leader Chen, who is skilled in martial arts.’

These words were too standard.

While doubting Division Leader Chen, he did not forget to praise him.

Division Leader Chen glared at Wei Ting. “I didn’t attack you! I don’t like you, but I won’t kill you!”

If the Sect Master knew, wouldn’t he skin him alive?

The School of White Lotus prohibited killing one another.

Even if Guo Huan sentenced Guardian He to death, he had good reasons to.

Wei Ting said, “I heard that on the day Guardian He was captured, the Eldest

Prince revealed the news to Wei Ting and Qin Canglan.”

Branch Leader Chen frowned again. “You suspect the Eldest Prince?”

Wei Ting opened his mouth and said, “Wei Ting and the Third Prince are showing signs of cooperation. The Eldest Prince wants to weaken the Third Prince’s power, so it’s not strange for him to use me to get rid of Wei Ting, right? Of course, this is only my personal guess. Why don’t you contact the Eldest Prince?”

Branch Leader Chen pondered and said, “It’s always been Guardian He who contacted the Eldest Prince. After Guardian He died, we lost contact with the Eldest Prince. However, there’s one thing: he doesn’t know about your identity in the White Lotus Society.”

Wei Ting picked up his teacup and took a sip. “Oh?”

He got another important piece of information.

Division Leader Chen smiled. “Put this matter aside for now. I’ll investigate. I called you over today because the Sect Master has issued a new mission.”

“Is it for you?”

Wei Ting appropriately expressed some jealousy.

According to their attitude towards “Guo Huan”, Guo Huan’s status in the White Lotus Society was clearly higher than theirs. It was impossible for Guo Huan not to know that Division Leader Chen had received the mission given by the Sect Master.

The real Guo Huan might have already received the mission.

“Hmph!” Wei Ting slammed the teacup on the table.

Boss Lin was terrified.

Division Leader Chen enjoyed Guo Huan’s jealousy. “Perhaps it’s because you’re sick and he can’t bear to see you work hard. It’s definitely not that the Sect Master is disappointed in you because he saw that you were almost exposed.” Killing intent flashed across Wei Ting’s eyes.

“Let’s get down to business! Let’s get down to business!” Boss Lin was afraid

that the two of them would fight again.

Division Leader Chen enjoyed the pleasure of being above Guo Huan and said unrestrainedly, “The statue of Emperor Taizu has been destroyed. Seven days later, Emperor Jing Xuan will lead the civil and military officials to the Dragon Temple to pray for the Great Zhou and worship a new statue of Emperor Taizu.

The order given by the Sect Master this time is… to assassinate Emperor Jing

Xuan!”

After leaving the gambling den, the two of them got into the carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao really didn’t expect Wei Ting to get so much information tonight.

As expected of the youngest young top scholar of the Great Zhou.

There was no doubt that the Wei family’s mole was Guo Huan. He was the one who stole Old General Wei’s Commander Seal.

However, based on the conversation between the two of them, he only stole the Commander’s Seal and really forged a secret letter to contact the enemy. The person who instigated the fallout between the Wei and Qin families was the Sect Master of the White Lotus Society.

This did not mean that Guo Huan was not guilty.

Old General Wei doted on him so much, but in the end, he was stabbed in the back. It was really unforgivable!

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Division Leader Chen just said that Guo Huan killed someone from the White Lotus Society. Strange, since Division Leader Chen doesn’t like Guo Huan, why doesn’t he tell the Sect Master Guo Huan’s secret?”

Wei Ting analyzed, “There are two possibilities: Division Leader Chen wants to use Guo Huan’s weakness to get Guo Huan to work for him. Secondly, even if the Sect Master finds out, Guo Huan won’t die.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “If it’s the latter, Guo Huan’s relationship with the Sect Master of the White Lotus Society is extraordinary.”

She thought of something and said, “Why do you think Guo Huan joined the White Lotus Society? He’s the eldest grandson of the Prime Minister and the heir of the Guo family. What benefits will it bring him to join the White Lotus

Society? Could it be… for Princess Hui An?”

Prime Minister Guo did not agree to Guo Huan being the Prince Consort.

This was because once he became the emperor’s son-in-law, it meant that he could only be a rich and idle person for the rest of his life and could not step into the royal court.

This was not what Prime Minister Guo was willing to see.

Guo Huan might not want to be a prince consort without any real power.

Guo Huan wanted power and the princess, so he joined the White Lotus Society.

Of course, this was only her guess. Only Guo Huan knew what he was thinking.

“What are you thinking about?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

“The assassination in seven days,” Wei Ting said thoughtfully. “What grudge does the White Lotus Society have against the Imperial Court? What grudge does it have with the royal family? Must they kill the emperor?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Perhaps their Sect Master wants to be the emperor himself.”

This guess was very bold.

Wei Ting fell into deep thought.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “By the way, did Boss Lin give you something before you got into the carriage? Did he say that it was for you? Is this it?” With that, she picked up a small box on the table and slowly opened it.

“Oh, it smells so good.”

Wei Ting also smelled this fragrance.

He frowned and wanted to stop her, but it was too late. Su Xiaoxiao had already taken a deep breath of the box.

Wei Ting hurriedly took the box and closed it! Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting. “What?”

“No… that’s…” Wei Ting hesitated.

“Huh?” Su Xiaoxiao looked at him blankly.

Wei Ting closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “It’s an acacia incense… to liven things up. You only took a breath. You should be fine.”

After a pause, he stood up. “I’ll go out and sit. Stay here for a while.”

Su Xiaoxiao tugged at his sleeve and looked at him with a faint smile.. “Didn’t you say that I would be fine after taking a puff? Then why are you hiding?”
