Su Xuening realized that she had revealed a huge secret, and felt a moment of panic.
But considering that she and Xuan Yuanzhan were already in the same boat, and that things had come to this point, it seemed she couldn't back down now.
Su Xuening sighed softly and looked at Xuan Yuanzhan, saying, "The military tally of the Su family army in the hands of Su Huiyan and Su Renyi is fake."
Xuan Yuanzhan was once again greatly surprised and guessed, "So your father didn't hand over the military tally to them? So they made a fake military tally?"
Su Xuening snorted angrily, "My father was killed by Su Huiyan and Su Renyi, how could he possibly hand over the military seal to them!"
Xuan Yuanzhan raised an eyebrow, recalling Su Renzhong's wisdom in leading troops. He guessed that Su Renzhong had long seen through the true colors of his younger brother and sister-in-law, and it was indeed possible that he would not hand over the military seal to them.
"Where is the military tally of the Su family army now?" Xuan Yuanzhan shouldn't have asked her such a private question, but it wasn't just about the Su family, it was about the entire Eastern Chu.
General Su and the Su family army contributed 70% of the effort that enabled Xuanyuan Peng to ascend the throne. Although the Su family army is now idle, it remains the pillar of Eastern Chu.
The key issue is that the Su family army only recognizes the military tally, not the person. If people were to find out that the Su family army's military tally is gone, the world would likely descend into chaos.
Su Xuening shook her head with a somber expression: "I don't know either, maybe it's with my mother."
Xuan Yuanzhan suddenly realized something: "So Su Huiyan captured your mother to find out the whereabouts of the real military seal?"
"Yes." Su Xuening nodded.
Xuan Yuanzhan was stunned. He had found it strange before that General Su was already dead, so why did Su Renyi and Su Huiyan capture Madam Su and torture her like this?
Even if Su Renyi coveted Madam Su, he shouldn't have treated her like that! It turns out he was asking her about the whereabouts of the military tally!
Thinking of how their mother had been tortured, Su Xuening felt both heartache and resentment: "Su Huiyan and Su Renyi both thought that my father had given the real military tally to my mother, so they kidnapped her to interrogate her about the whereabouts of the tally. But after my mother woke up, she lost her memory. She said that my father could not have given her the military tally of the Su family army, and she herself did not remember anything from before, so I could not confirm whether the real military tally was with my mother or not."
Xuanyuan Zhan also realized the true identity of Madam Su.
Madam Su might be a member of the Western Liang royal family. If the military seal of the Su family army falls into the hands of Western Liang, the consequences will be dire...
However, Madam Su did not take the Su family army with her, and now that she has lost her memory, she probably doesn't have that intention. But the Su family army's military tally is so important, it should be retrieved as soon as possible.
Su Xuening also knew the importance of the Su family army's military tally, and sighed softly, saying, "In that case, I'll go back to the General's Mansion tomorrow and look for it in my father's study."
However, it is highly unlikely that it will be found.
After Su Renyi and Su Huiyan captured their mother, the General's Mansion had already been thoroughly searched by them. If they had found the real military tally, they would not have spared their mother's life. They must not have found it.
They were so desperate but couldn't find it, so she had already foreseen the outcome of her own search.
Xuanyuan Zhan nodded: "I'll go with you after court tomorrow."
Long Jiaojiao is in Kyoto, and he's really worried about her going out alone.
Su Xuening glanced at him: "Don't you have official business to attend to in the Imperial Study tomorrow?"
Xuanyuan Zhan lay back down and pouted, "Su Huiyan has regained her identity, so won't Xuanyuan Yu have to regain his favor too? Besides, even if I really need to handle official business, I can bring it back to handle it."
He didn't want to stay in the Imperial Study until late every night, only to return home to find Ning'er already asleep, and barely exchanging a few words with her. He didn't want to live like that!
He had his own considerations, and Su Xuening didn't want to get involved.
After all, whether or not official business is handled is up to the Emperor. Now, before military force is deployed, who can become the Crown Prince depends entirely on the Emperor's will.
Given the current situation, the Emperor clearly favors the Dowager Consort more and has higher hopes for Xuanyuan Zhan!
However, it was Xuanyuan Yu who ascended the throne in his previous life, so if Xuanyuan Zhan wants to truly sit on the throne, he will probably have to put in some effort.
Su Xuening thought about this and that, and soon fell asleep.
Listening to Su Xuening's soft breathing, Xuan Yuanzhan quietly climbed into bed, stole a kiss, then tiptoed out to change into his night clothes before sneaking out of the palace again.
Presumably, Long Jiaojiao was still at Jingfeng Palace making love with Xuanyuan Yu, so Xuanyuan Zhan went to Jinhua Palace as if he knew the way well.
This time he evaded the Karasuma and successfully infiltrated the main hall.
As soon as they entered the main hall, before Xuan Yuanzhan could even begin searching the palace, the candles in the main hall suddenly lit up.
A woman, barely clothed and draped in a thin veil, suddenly came into view. Xuan Yuanzhan's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he immediately looked away: "Long Jiaojiao, do you have some kind of special fetish?"
Every time Long Jiaojiao saw Xuan Yuanzhan's embarrassed and embarrassed handsome face, she felt a deep sense of pleasure.
She smiled seductively, then rose from the chaise longue, walked to Xuan Yuanzhan, and reached out to hook his chin, but he avoided her with disgust.
Long Jiaojiao wasn't angry at all. She simply pulled up his sash and wrapped it around her finger, saying wickedly, "Isn't this holy maiden's hobby seducing you?"
Xuan Yuanzhan pulled his sash back, not wanting to have anything ambiguous with a woman like her, and coldly retorted, "What? Is Xuan Yuan Yu still not enough for you?"
Judging from her appearance, she must have just gotten off Xuan Yuan Yu's bed, and she's still not satisfied!
Long Jiaojiao wasn't ashamed at all; instead, she leaned close to Xuan Yuanzhan with a seductive look, saying, "How can he compare to you? You're much better than him..."
Before she could get close, Xuan Yuanzhan dodged away with disgust: "Isn't he also a person with a supreme yang constitution? He's the same as me. Once you get him, you shouldn't need me anymore, right? You can give me the mother Gu now!"
Long Jiaojiao wasn't annoyed at missing her target. She circled behind Xuan Yuanzhan, pressed herself against him, and greedily inhaled his yang energy. She said in an excited, hoarse voice, "How can you be like him? He's no match for you. You're the real yang physique. He... he's nothing!"
Long Jiaojiao was furious when he talked about this.
She originally thought that although Xuan Yuan Yu was not a true yang-type physique, his birth date and time were quite similar to Xuan Yuan Zhan's, so even if his yang energy was not as good as Xuan Yuan Zhan's, it should still be much better than that of an ordinary man.
But only after actually practicing the Free and Easy Divine Skill did they realize that his yang energy was much more effective than the ultimate yang energy. The key was that he was not a virgin, and his original yang energy had been broken, so the effect was even worse.
Not only did she not master the Free and Unfettered Divine Skill, but Xuan Yuan Yu was also weak on the outside and feeble on the inside, far inferior to the men of their Southern Border. She was not as comfortable and pleasant as Wu Huan!
