Thinking of this, Mrs. Su's eyes turned red with excitement.
Seeing that Su Boyu was also extremely excited, Madam Su frowned and asked, "What are you so happy about?"
Huh? Isn't it a good thing that the Emperor is dead?
But Madam Su waved her hand, struggling to sit up, her face solemn. "Things are definitely not that simple. Boyu, tell me the whole story. Did the young master really die suddenly, or was it just an act? And what is the whole story from beginning to end?"
Su Boyu told Old Madam Su all the news he got from Queen Su.
"So, the Young Master Emperor and the main gods of the four divine lands are colluding to usurp the throne?" Old Madam Su frowned slightly. "How could this be such a coincidence?"
"Mother, is this a coincidence?" The head of the Su family frowned.
Madam Su still couldn't understand. "Those four great gods, each so arrogant and proud, would they come together to help the Young Master? Could it be that the Young Master has truly been able to win over all four of them over these years?"
Patriarch Su: "Mother, this is the truth. Otherwise, His Majesty would not have ordered the death of Young Master Di in such a rage. You must know that he is the Crown Prince, His Majesty's biological son."
Madam Su touched the edge of the bed and frowned. "Those four great gods... they don't get along well with each other. The emperor has repeatedly alienated them over the years. It's impossible to get them to put aside their prejudices and join forces, unless it's that person."
Su Boyu: "That person is..."
"Emperor Nitian and Yanhua." Madam Su snorted coldly. "Among these four main gods, two have close friendships with Emperor Nitian, and two have very good relations with Yanhua. That's why when they first secured their thrones, these four main gods lived in peace and security. But during the years that Emperor Xuanyuan has been in power, these four have been constantly quarreling."
"Young Master Di... what ability did they have that allowed the four of them to join forces? Or... it's not Young Master Di... but..."
Thinking of this, Old Madam Su suddenly asked Madam Su, "Is Su Muke really dead?"
Madam Su didn't understand why the old lady asked this, but she nodded solemnly. "She's indeed dead. The Eighth Princess herself disposed of her body. It has turned to blood and water, and no trace of her remains has been found. Why did mother suddenly ask about her?"
Madam Su sighed, "There's a strange aura about that girl. It seems familiar, but I couldn't remember where it was. But I finally remembered it just now."
"What's that smell?"
Madam Su said, "She has the aura of the Vermillion Bird God and the Black Tortoise God."
"What?!"
Madam Su and Su Boyu looked at each other in shock, then looked at Madam Su together: "Mother, this, this couldn't be... wrong?"
Madam Su shook her head. "No, she has indeed met the two main gods. The Xuanwu main god is in the far north, and she is in the Linbei Province. It is reasonable that they met by chance, but—"
"How could she be tainted with the aura of the Suzaku Lord of Lava City? This Suzaku Lord is so aloof and arrogant that even Emperor Xuanyuan finds it difficult to meet him. How could that girl be able to see him?"
Mrs. Su and Su Boyu looked at each other, and for some reason they suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Go and fetch the Eighth Princess. I have something to ask her." Old Madam Su ordered, "Hurry!"
"Yes, son, I'll go right away!" The head of the Su family went out quickly.
Old Madam Su leaned on the cushion and rubbed her brows worriedly. How could she be so careless that she didn't think about it at that time and didn't think about it again...such an important matter.
