Su Xiaoxiao looked at her calmly, as if she didn’t believe a word she said.

Guo Lingxi was not surprised. “I knew you wouldn’t believe me so easily.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her and said, “Northern Yan and the Great Zhou are enemies. Helian Ye killed Wei Ting’s grandfather, and the deaths of Wei Ting’s father and brothers are definitely related to him. Now, you’re telling me that his biological niece wants to marry Wei Ting? Would Helian Ye agree?”

Helian Ye had said that he would kill every member of the Wei family.

Guo Lingxi didn’t intend to reveal too much to Su Xiaoxiao, but Su Xiaoxiao was stubborn and didn’t believe her, which made her very angry.

She gritted her teeth and said sarcastically, “Then why do you think Grand

Astronomer Sikong calculated an auspicious day for you on the first of July? You just got married and the envoy of Northern Yan has already arrived. If it were a day later, it would be hard to say if this marriage would be successful.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Guo Lingxi without blinking. When she and Wei Ting set the wedding date, she had never heard of Northern Yan visiting.

Could it be that Sikong Yun had already predicted Northern Yan’s actions at that time?

Or perhaps, there was a deeper relationship between Sikong Yun and Northern

Yan.

How did Guo Lingxi know about this?

From Prime Minister Guo?

She had always felt that Prime Minister Guo was cunning and must have colluded with MO Guiyuan, but in the end, she found out that Prime Minister Guo had nothing to do with the White Lotus Society.

Was her intuition wrong, or had she missed some clues?

Su Xiaoxiao still couldn’t believe that Prime Minister Guo, this sly old fox, was clean. Otherwise, how could she explain that Guo Lingxi knew so much?

Prime Minister Guo’s understanding of Northern Yan was the same as Sikong Yun’s.

Then could it be inferred that Sikong Yun and Prime Minister Guo were both related to Northern Tan?

MO Guiyuan was dead, but the whereabouts of the previous emperor’s imperial edict were unknown. Su Xiaoxiao, like Xiao Zhonghua, believed that the imperial edict existed.

Could it be that Zhang Feng, as a minor guardian, really had the ability to

escape the investigation of the Imperial Court with the imperial edict?

If no one could harbor him, could he do it?

The White Lotus Society was destroyed, but the matter with the White Lotus Society was not over!

There was an invisible hand behind MO Guiyuan!

That person and MO Guiyuan did not have a master-servant or superior relationship. It was more appropriate to describe it as cooperation.

There was a reason why Su Xiaoxiao was so suspicious.

The news she found at the beginning was that MO Guiyuan had colluded with Northern Yan to kill Lord Wu An and indirectly killed Wei Ting’s father and brother. Because it was established, everyone accepted it and forgot to suspect how a small Sect Master of the White Lotus Society was qualified to let Northern Yan conspire with him.

In addition, MO Guiyuan’s deployment in the capital was too successful. He had infiltrated almost every important place, and even the palace was filled with his spies.

MO Guiyuan had only sent a daughter into the Wei family, but this daughter was not very obedient. Where did he get the ability to establish connections?

If there was someone extremely familiar with the capital and had a high position, everything would make sense.

MO Guiyuan had hooked up with Northern Yan through that person and completed all the deployments in the capital.

However, what MO Guiyuan probably did not know was that he was just a pawn in the other party’s hand.

MO Guiyuan indeed did not want to kill his grandchildren. It was that person who wanted to kill them.

Division Leader Chen’s words made them think that the person who killed Wei Ting’s brothers was Guo Huan.

But what if the information Division Leader Chen had was wrong?

Indeed, someone had betrayed MO Guiyuan and secretly plotted against Wei Ting’s father and brothers with Northern Yan. However, the other party was not Guo Huan; it was someone who had been secretly “cooperating” with MO Guiyuan.

MO Guiyuan could not obtain the previous emperor’s imperial edict, but that person could. This meant that he was someone the previous emperor trusted very much.

Perhaps the late emperor had handed the imperial edict to him before his death and asked him to publicize it after his death. Unexpectedly, he did not do so. He forged a secret edict and asked Qin Canglan and Su Shuo to support Prince Ruyang to ascend the throne.

They were immersed in the joy of killing MO Guiyuan and even neglected so many abnormalities behind them. They only attributed everything to MO Guiyuan’s ability.

Guo Lingxi’s words completely enlightened her.

Guo Lingxi didn’t know that her casual words had opened Su Xiaoxiao’s mind.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao turn around and walk away, she scolded softly, “You’re leaving before I can finish? Don’t you want to know what happened between the Princess of Northern Yan and Wei Ting?” Su Xiaoxiao didn’t stop.

“I have to say it even if you don’t want to hear it!”

Guo Lingxi looked at Su Xiaoxiao’s indifferent back and snorted. “Wei Ting once entered King Hulie’s camp alone and beheaded him. But do you know that he was surrounded and almost killed? It was the Princess of Northern Yan who let him go!”

“So what if you married Wei Ting? There’s nothing that Princess Northern Yan can’t get!”

“Just wait to lose Brother Ting!” “Just like how I lost him back then!” “You have a taste of how I feel too!” Su Xiaoxiao left the palace and went to the Imperial Astronomy Center.

Sikong Yun was that person’s trusted aide!

They had not guarded against Sikong Yun!

It was said that the Imperial Astronomy was a place that the White Lotus Society could not reach. That’s right, why was the Imperial Astronomy alone so impregnable?

This was because MO Guiyuan’s power in the capital was deployed through that person. Why would he plant MO Guiyuan’s spy in his territory?

“I’m so stupid!”

Su Xiaoxiao flew into a rage out of humiliation. This was the first time in her life that she was depressed about being tricked!

When she arrived at the Imperial Astronomy with a murderous aura, she was told that Sikong Yunxian had gone on a trip.

“A trip?”

Yu Feng said awkwardly, “Master went to find the herbs for His Majesty’s immortality medicine.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “Bullsh*t!”

Yu Feng trembled in fear.

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao fearfully. “Su… Uh no… Miss Qin… Madam Wei… What’s wrong?

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to see for herself. She called the Wuhu over and turned the Imperial Astronomy Center upside down. She really couldn’t find Sikong Yun.

Su Xiaoxiao left in exasperation.

Qin Canglan had just come out of the residence and was about to pick up Su

Ergou from the directorate when he saw the fierce Su Xiaoxiao on the street. He hurriedly dismounted and strode over. “Xiaoxiao!”

What was wrong with her today? His son was listless, and his granddaughter was strange?

“Why are you wandering the streets alone? Where’s Wei Ting?”

Only then did Su Xiaoxiao remember that she had only been looking for Sikong Yun and left Wei Ting in the palace.

She scratched her head awkwardly. “I’ll pick him up later. Anyway, he should be busy for a while. Grandfather, get in the carriage. I have something to tell you.”

The two of them got into the carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao told him her guess and analysis.

Qin Canglan frowned. “You mean there’s someone behind MO Guiyuan? Sikong

Yun is that person or his lackey?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m inclined to the latter.”

Qin Canglan never expected this.

He had always felt that Sikong Yun was the last person in the entire court he would suspect.

“But Sikong Yun didn’t do anything to harm us… He even helped you set a suitable wedding date and let you and Wei Ting get married before the Princess of Northern Yan arrives.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “If he really didn’t do anything to let us down, he wouldn’t have escaped. He must have done something, and we’ll find out soon. That’s why he wanted to escape before it was exposed..”
