Chapter 544: Gone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After Jing Yi sent Su Xiaoxiao back to the capital, he immediately went to the entrance of the peach forest where Xiao Zhonghua was stationed. The Old Marquis was also there.

...

He did not know the situation in the peach forest for the time being and was a little worried for the children.

Jing Yi brought the news that they had returned safely. Only then did the Old Marquis heave a sigh of relief.

Su Cheng had been placed in by Xiao Zhonghua. Although Su Daya had barged in on her own, she was only a little girl and was not an official of the Imperial Court, so he could not find any fault with her.

The only one was Su Mo.

Xiao Zhonghua said solemnly, “Old Marquis, don’t worry. We’ve never seen Young Master Su.”

The Old Marquis cupped his hands. “Thank you, Third Prince.”

Xiao Zhonghua and Jing Yi entered the tent.

The two of them sat down and Changping served tea.

Xiao Zhonghua said seriously, “How did you come out? Are you injured?” “I’m not injured.” Jing Yi told him about his experience in the forest.

When Division Leader Chen said that the peach forest could not be entered, Xiao Zhonghua had guessed that there must be great danger inside, but he did not expect it to be so dangerous.

Jing Yi said, “Most of the people His Second Highness brought were killed. His First Highness’s whereabouts are unknown. When we separated from His First Highness, he was with the Leng family, but I’m afraid it’s hard to say now.”

Xiao Zhonghua opened his mouth. “She…”

JingYi looked at Xiao Zhonghua and said, “She’s fine. She’s already returned to the Imperial Astronomy Center.”

Xiao Zhonghua picked up the teacup and lowered his eyes to take a sip. He smiled as if nothing had happened and said, “I… I’m not asking about this. I’m just sighing at how bold she is. I’m relieved that both of you are fine. By the way, where’s Wu Mu and Qing Xuan?”

Jing Yi looked at him stubbornly. “You’re just worried about her.”

Xiao Zhonghua: “I…”

Jing Yi stabbed him. “It’s useless to worry. She’s not yours anymore.”

Xiao Zhonghua remarked in his heart, “You’re really my biological cousin.”

Xiao Zhonghua changed the topic. “You haven’t said where Wu Mu and Qing Xuan went. Why are only you and Bai Ze out?”

“We got separated.”

At this point, Jing Yi was not only worried.

The peach forest was dangerous. The reason why they could come out was partly because of luck and also because of Su Xiaoxiao’s enhancement of their strength. She had many treasures on her and had helped a lot.

Wu Mu and Qing Xuan might not be so lucky.

While he was thinking, Changping, who was at the door, said, “Lord Wu Mu? Lord Qing Xuan?”

The two of them entered and saw that Jing Yi was also there. They could not help but be pleasantly surprised.

“Young Marquis, you’re out too?” the two of them said in unison.

“How did you get out?” Jing Yi asked.

Wu Mu rubbed his slightly sore square face and sighed. “After being separated from the Young Marquis, Qing Xuan and I were ambushed by the White Lotus Society. After that, we fell into a trap and were captured by the White Lotus

Society. However, what was strange was that they actually let us go in the end.”

Qing Xuan added, “To be precise, he handed us over to Wei Ting.”

Xiao Zhonghua and Jing Yi were puzzled.

Qing Xuan recalled, “We saw someone at the exit and suspected that he was the

Sect Master of the White Lotus Society. He seems to know Wei Ting…”

Wu Mu hesitated and said, “Your Highness, Young Marquis, Guo Huan is from the White Lotus Society. His mother and Wei Ting’s mother are cousins. Could Wei Ting also…”

Xiao Zhonghua paused and said, “Are you trying to say that Wei Ting is related to the White Lotus Society? The White Lotus Society used Northern Yan to kill Wei Ting’s grandfather and father. Wei Ting and the White Lotus Society are irreconcilable. It’s impossible for them to collude.”

Wu Mu said, “But the attitude of the White Lotus Society’s Sect Master towards

Wei Ting… is really extraordinary.”

Xiao Zhonghua smiled. “This is the goal of the White Lotus Society’s Sect Master. Through your mouths, they can provoke the Imperial Court’s suspicion of Wei Ting.”

Qing Xuan and Wu Mu were stunned.

Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “What a cunning guy.”

On the other side, Wei Ting returned to the Imperial Astronomy Center. Sikong Yun sat on the Star Observation Platform and watched as the cold and

empty Imperial Astronomy Center became crowded. He was already numb.

“Master,” Yu Feng said, “the kitchen is here for money.”

Sikong Yun’s temples throbbed. “Another silver tael? How many times this month?”

Were those guys good-for-nothings? They could eat so much!

The Imperial Astronomy Center was about to be eaten until he was poor!

Wei Ting entered the house. Su Xiaoxiao had just finished making the ointment for Wei Liulang when Wei Liulang cooperated and tested the medicine.

“Daya, Sixth Brother.” He greeted her.

“Is my son-in-law back?”

Su Cheng came over from next door.

Wei Ting said, “Dad.” “You’re not hurt, are you?”

“No.”

Su Cheng yawned. “Oh, then I’ll go to sleep.”

After a long night, he was exhausted.

If not for the fact that he was waiting for his son-in-law, he would have fallen asleep long ago.

Su Cheng went to catch up on his sleep. Wei Ting said to the two of them, “Aren’t you sleepy?”

“I was waiting for you,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

Wei Ting looked at her suspiciously. He felt that she had done something and could not hide the excitement in his eyes.

Wei Liulang rolled down his sleeves and asked Wei Ting, “You… saw him?”

Su Xiaoxiao put away the ointment and looked at Wei Ting.

Wei Ting found a chair and sat down. “Yes.”

Wei Liulang asked with a complicated expression, “What… did he say?”

Wei Ting sneered. “He still doesn’t know that Sixth Brother survived. He thinks that I’m his only grandson and wants to recruit me.”

Wei Liulang asked, “What do you plan to do?”

Wei Ting looked at him with a faint smile. “What does Sixth Brother want me to

“Up to you,” Wei Liulang said. He paused and corrected himself. “I’m not your sixth brother.’

He was stubborn every day.

Wei Ting grabbed the orange on the table. “I’ve thought about it. The least expensive way to deal with him is to assassinate him. However, I realized today that he has a powerful expert by his side called Slave Xiu.”

“I’ll go kill him,” said Wei Liulang.

Wei Ting smiled and patted Wei Liulang’s left shoulder. “Sixth Brother, recover from your injuries first. We’ll think about the assassination at length.” “I’m afraid we don’t have that much time,” Wei Liulang said.

Wei Ting asked, ‘Why?”

Wei Liulang pondered and said, “A month ago, I barged into the peach forest and unintentionally heard of the White Lotus Society’s plan. They plan to recruit troops wantonly and officially revolt among the people. They give three times the salary of the Imperial Court. I heard that even many soldiers of the

Imperial Court have been tempted and secretly joined the White Lotus Society.” Wei Ting frowned handsomely. This was not good news.

Since ancient times, humans died for wealth and birds died for food. Because the Imperial Court had fought with Northern Yan a few years ago, they had exhausted the national treasury. They were really not as rich as the White Lotus Society.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Um… I think they might not be able to recruit anymore.”

The two of them looked at her strangely.

Wei Liulang asked, “Why can’t they do the recruitment? Money talks. Not to mention recruiting soldiers, if there’s enough money, the officials of the Imperial Court can be bought.’

Su Xiaoxiao blinked innocently. “Is there a possibility… that their money is gone?”

Wei Liulang shook his head. “The White Lotus Society embezzled an entire gold mine back then. That gold is still missing.”

Su Xiaoxiao sat down opposite the two of them and silently took out a gold ingot and placed it on the table.

There was no official seal. This was not an ingot forged by the Imperial Court.

Su Xiaoxiao took out another gold bar.

The two of them frowned.

Su Xiaoxiao continued to take out a handful of golden leaves, a handful of golden beans, and a piece of gold… Wei Ting was speechless.

And so was Wei Liulang..
