Wei Liulang was stunned and murmured: "She... doesn't she know that the window is not closed? Or has she been provoked by the King of Nanyang and become stupid?"
Su Xiaoxiao was ultimately unable to enter the pharmacy.
She went to open the door with a gloomy face.
The five of them quickly stepped into the yard.
Qin Canglan did not forget to go back, close the window, and deal with the embarrassing situation for his granddaughter.
Su Xiaoxiao stepped out and saw several big men standing in the yard, their postures straighter than steel pipes. She looked at them strangely: "What are you doing?"
Several people shook their heads.
Su Xiaoxiao looked puzzled: "Did King Nanyang spur you into a trance?"
Several people: "..."
"Let's go! Let's go interrogate King Nanyang!" Qin Canglan, Su Mo, Gui Bu, and Wei Liulang all found excuses to leave the scene.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting suspiciously: "You're not going?"
Wei Ting narrowed his eyes dangerously and walked past her into the study very cautiously.
He looked around inside but didn't see anyone.
"What are you looking for?" Su Xiaoxiao asked, leaning against the door frame.
Wei Ting asked coldly: "Who were you talking to just now?"
Su Xiaoxiao's face darkened: "Did you eavesdrop on me?"
Wei Ting remained calm: "No, I just heard a noise, and when I wanted to knock on the door, you opened the door and came out."
Su Xiaoxiao stared straight into his eyes: "Are you sure?"
"If you don't believe me, forget it. I don't want to bother with you."
Wei Ting said this with a cold face, then turned and went to the room where King Nanyang was imprisoned.
Inside the house, several people discussed how to deal with King Nanyang.
The situation of Prince Nanyang is different from that of Mo Guiyuan. Behind Mo Guiyuan is the White Lotus Sect. Many of the White Lotus Sect's dens have been destroyed by the imperial court long ago, and they know Mo Guiyuan very well. If Mo Guiyuan is killed, all crises can be solved.
It is not clear yet what forces are behind King Nanyang.
You can kill them, but if their power is not eliminated, hidden dangers will remain.
"Severe torture." Su Mo suggested.
Wei Ting shook his head: "I'm afraid this trick won't work on him."
"Brother, do you have any good ideas?" Wei Liulang asked.
"I'm not your elder brother." Gui Bu denied.
Wei Liulang had a resentful face.
Gui Bu: "I must kill him, but not for the Wei family, it's simply because I don't like this person."
Wei Liulang: You keep making it up.
Gui Bu continued, "Before you kill him, you need to get two things: the list and the imperial edict."
"What list?" Wei Liulang was puzzled.
Wei Ting answered for Gui Bu, "The list of all the officials who secretly interacted with him may also include members of the royal family and palace maids."
He was able to cast a wide net throughout the imperial palace and help the White Lotus Sect infiltrate various government offices. There must have been many people secretly colluding with him.
"I agree." Qin Canglan said, "Now that Prince Nanyang has returned to the capital, he can't hide forever. Your Majesty will find him sooner or later. Your Majesty can guess what we can think of. Your Majesty will definitely start investigating this list, and we will move faster than Your Majesty."
A master may carry a sword not necessarily to kill people, but also to prevent himself from being killed.
Wei Liulang scratched his head: "But how do we get the list? Xiaoqi, do you have any medicine that can make people confess?"
Wei Ting said, "Sixth brother, are you referring to Wu Shi San? Taking this medicine can indeed cause mental disorder, but I'm afraid it won't be very effective for the King of Nanyang."
This man's determination is beyond common sense.
As they were discussing, a guard came running over: "Old Master! Something terrible has happened! The hostage is missing!"
Several people immediately got up and went to the room where King Nanyang was imprisoned. As expected, they saw that on the bed where King Nanyang was supposed to be lying, there were only a few pieces of cut ropes left, and the two guards who were guarding him had fainted in front of the bed.
"What's going on?" Wei Liulang frowned.
Qin Canglan touched his subordinate's neck and said, "He's still breathing. He was knocked unconscious."
Wei Liulang was puzzled and asked, "Someone knocked out two guards right under our noses and took the King of Nanyang away?"
Qin Canglan sighed: "King Nanyang has many experts under his command."
Su Mo said: "I'll go after him!"
Wei Ting stopped him: "No need, I have already guessed where he will go."
Now that his identity has been completely exposed, the Qin, Su and Wei families have joined forces to kill him. He has nowhere to hide except one place.
The Imperial Palace.
Emperor Jingxuan was reviewing memorials until midnight when he felt dizzy. He pressed his temples and went to bed with the help of Eunuch Fu.
But just as he closed his eyes, he heard the anxious voice of Eunuch Quan from outside: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something happened!"
Emperor Jingxuan said impatiently: "Go and have a look."
"yes."
Eunuch Fu came to the door, opened it and glared at Eunuch Quan, "What are you yelling about in the middle of the night? Are you going to let His Majesty rest?"
Eunuch Quan looked inside and shouted, "General Wei wants to see you! He said he has urgent news from eight hundred miles away!"
Emperor Jingxuan's first reaction was that there was a war at the border. He quickly threw back the quilt and sat up: "Xuan!"
Wei Ting was led into the emperor's bedroom by Eunuch Quan.
Emperor Jingxuan was wearing a bright yellow nightgown and sitting on the dragon bed, looking solemn: "What urgent news is coming from so late at night?"
Wei Ting cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this is not an urgent report from the border."
Emperor Jingxuan was furious and pointed at his nose and said, "Wei Ting! You are deceiving the emperor!"
Wei Ting did not look panicked at all. He said calmly, "The reason I say this is because it is more urgent than the urgent report from the border 800 miles away."
Emperor Jingxuan said coldly: "That's better! Otherwise, I will chop off your head!"
Wei Ting said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Prince Nanyang is back!"
Emperor Jingxuan was startled, then looked at Wei Ting as if he were a fool: "Prince Nanyang has been dead for ten years."
Wei Ting said seriously: "He is not dead. My grandfather saved him."
Emperor Jingxuan was shocked: "You——"
Wei Ting knelt on one knee and bowed his head to admit his fault: "I am guilty, the Wei family is guilty, please punish me, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Jingxuan looked at him coldly: "You'd better explain yourself clearly! What happened?"
