“How could..

Su Xiaoxiao suspected that she had seen it wrongly. She picked up the portrait and looked at the woman in white carefully.

From her eyebrows to the bridge of her nose to the shape of her face, she looked at every inch.

A beauty’s bones were not her skin. Even if she was old, one could see the beautiful outline of her youth.

It was Grandmaster Hui Jue.

To be precise, she looked like she was in her prime. At that time, she had yet to become a nun. She was dressed in white and looked like an immortal. It was not an exaggeration to call her a fairy.

The three of them sat in the house for a long time without saying anything.

Obviously, no one expected the truth that they had worked so hard to find to be like this.

“Could there be a mistake?” Su MO asked.

Of course, Su Xiaoxiao hoped that she had made a mistake. Grandmaster Hui Jue was the first golden thigh she had hugged after coming to the alternate world. Not only did she introduce her to a lot of good business, but she also lent her a valuable house in the capital to live in.

Of course, Su Xiaoxiao hoped that she had made a mistake. Grandmaster Hui Jue was the first golden thigh she had hugged after coming to the alternate world. Not only did she introduce her to a lot of good business, but she also lent her a valuable house in the capital to live in. If she was the big boss behind the scenes—

Did the ancients hide their intentions so deeply?

Su Xiaoxiao was about to doubt her life!

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the two of them. “Can I ask what Grandmaster Hui Jue’s identity is? The Wei family and the Su family seem to be friends with her.” Su MO said, “She’s the Eldest Princess, the late emperor’s twin sister.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Does she have a grudge against the Wei family?”

From the clues they had so far, the person behind Prime Minister Guo and Sikong Yun had conspired with MO Guiyuan and Northern Yan to scheme against the Wei family. This person was even more ruthless than MO Guiyuan.

After all, MO Guiyuan only wanted the lives of Lord Wu An and Wei Xu. This person wanted the men of the Wei family to never return. Su MO looked at Wei Ting. He could not answer this question.

Wei Ting shook his head. “As far as I know, no.”

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “Could it be that she wants to support Emperor Jing

Xuan and eliminate a huge problem for him?”

The Wei family was an old subordinate of King Nanyang and had always been a thorn in Emperor Jing Xuan’s heart. He wanted to take back the Wei family’s military power but relied on the Wei family to guard the north.

Su Xiaoxiao speculated, “Ah, could it be that Emperor Jing Xuan is her nephew in name, but he’s actually her biological son! This guess is very reliable! Think about it, before the late emperor died, he established King Nanyang as the emperor. The imperial edict fell into the hands of the Eldest Princess. She’s the late emperor’s twin sister. The late emperor trusted her. He thought that she would announce the imperial edict to the world, but she actually hid it and forged a fake imperial edict to make King Ruyang the emperor. How is it? Isn’t it reasonable and flawless?”

Su MO nodded seriously. “Yes.”

Wei Ting glanced at Su MO speechlessly. Can he not spoil his sister like this?

Wei Ting hit the nail on the head. “The Eldest Princess treats her two nephews the same. In addition, how can the Empress Dowager not know if Emperor Jing Xuan is her biological son?” Su Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes. “Oh, that’s true.”

Su MO was unconditional.

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao. “It’s okay. I still think what you said makes more sense. You’re very smart.”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Cousin is so good!”

Wei Ting’s face darkened. Was it so warped now? Wouldn’t Su Mots conscience hurt if he lied through his teeth?

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and glared at Wei Ting. “You deserve to be single!”

Wei Ting pointed at Su MO calmly. “Get this straight. He’s the one who’s single now.”

Su Xiaoxiao blinked. Her attempts to curry favor had fallen flat.

However, Su MO was not affected at all. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao gently. “If you didn’t get married, you will have been treated well as my sister. You won’t have a sister-in-law who uses you as a sandbag every day.”

It was heartbreaking!

Wei Ting almost vomited blood.

Why didn’t he realize that Su MO was so annoying in the past?!

Today was the day Su Mo’s shit-stirring skill reached its peak.

There was a jar of walnuts on the table. Su MO and Wei Ting peeled one at the same time and handed it to Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao decisively chose Su Mo’s. “Cousin peeled it even more beautifully!

It’s like a complete brain.”

“I’ve practiced, ” Su MO said.

Su Xiaoxiao wondered, “Uh… Is it the exercise I understand? It’s not peeling people’s brains, right?”

This was clearly a warm and gentle brother, not a dark big boss.

Su MO smiled. “If you like it, I’ll peel it for you every day. Don’t worry, I won’t provoke this princess and that princess and rush to cause trouble for you.”

Wei Ting exploded!

“Su MO, come out and fight if you dare!”

Su Xiaoxiao calmly became the peacemaker. “Let’s get down to business.”

“Okay,” Su MO expressed in a second.

Wei Ting, who was beaten to it again, was speechless.

Seeing Wei Ting suffer at Su Mo ts hands, Su Xiaoxiao finally felt happy.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “The reason why the Su and Wei families befriended the

Eldest princess is…”

Su MO said, “My grandaunt and the Eldest princess are close friends.”

Wei Ting said, “My grandmother too. Back then—”

He did not give Su MO a chance to curry favor and continued without breathing, “The Empress Dowager, my grandmother, Yue Ange, your grandmother, Su Huayin, and the Eldest Princess were close friends. The four of them have an extremely good relationship. Later on, for some reason, the Empress Dowager’s relationship with my grandmother and your grandmother faded.”

Su MO took the opportunity to explain to Su Xiaoxiao, “At that time, the late emperor had yet to ascend the throne, but the Empress Dowager had already seen through his ambition. She hoped that the Qin and Su families could support their eldest son in the future. Unfortunately, the Qin and Su families are closer to Prince Ruyang.”

Wei Ting said angrily, “She already knows this.”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, “There’s no harm in me hearing it again!”

Wei Ting snorted coldly.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, ‘Where’s the Eldest Princess? What’s her position?”

Wei Ting said, “She doesn’t get involved and interacts with everyone. It’s just that the four of them no longer meet on the surface.”

Su Xiaoxiao still didn’t understand. “Why did she become a nun?”

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes and said, “Because of the Prince Consort, she was very loving with him. After the Prince Consort passed away, she no longer had any attachment to the mortal world and became a monk in her fief. Qingzhou is her fief.”

Qingzhou… Something flashed across Su Xiaoxiao’s mind.

“How’s Prime Minister Guo?” Wei Ting asked.

“He’s unconscious,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

“She’s on good terms with Aunt Fu. How did the two of them know each other?”

The Empress Dowager, Su Huayin, and Yue Ange were the daughters of aristocratic families. It was not surprising that they knew the royal family, but Aunt Fu’s background was very ordinary.

Wei Ting explained, “Imperial Physician Fu was the attending physician of the

Prince Consort back then.”

In that case, Su Xiaoxiao understood why Imperial Physician Fu fled to Qingzhou after the accident. It was because that was the Eldest Princess’s fief. They could obtain her protection.

It was no wonder that she did not even care when that prefecture lord asked to see her.

With her noble status, even a first-rank official might not be able to see her. What was a mere prefecture lord?

The three of them looked at the portrait on the table again.

Could the mastermind really be this kind elder?

The twilight merged.

Outside the southern city gate, Aunt Fu’s carriage sped along the official road and finally arrived before the city gate closed..
