General Leng berated, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

The Great Elder mocked, “Did I say anything wrong? Back then, General Wei brought his sons to the northern city to collect Lord Wu An’s corpse. Didn’t you deliberately leak the news and cause them to be ambushed by the Northern

Yan?”

General Leng suppressed his anger and looked at him with burning eyes. “I didn’t! How could I do that?”

The Great Elder sneered and said, “Admit it, Leng Tiannan. If someone didn’t leak their whereabouts, why would they be plotted against?”

General Leng placed the sword on the First Elder’s neck again. “I don’t think you’re here to make a deal with me. You’re here to force me to admit the crime of groundless trumped-up accusation! Why? What does the death of the Wei family have to do with your White Lotus Society? No, the Wei family was killed by your White Lotus Society to begin with! Now that you want to ally with the Imperial Court, you want to push this crime onto me? Dream on!”

The Great Elder narrowed his eyes dangerously. “General Leng…”

General Leng said sternly, “Enough! If you say it a thousand or ten thousand times, I won’t betray the Imperial Court!”

“What a pity. I originally wanted to keep your son’s life.”

With that, the Great Elder turned around, pulled open the door, and strode out.

General Leng was drenched in cold sweat and fell into a chair.

“Dad.”

Leng Zhiruo pushed the door open with her sword.

In response, Leng Tiannan scolded her, “I didn’t frame the Wei family!”

Leng Zhiruo was stunned. “Dad?”

Leng Tiannan broke out in cold sweat. He composed himself and said, “Don’t tell anyone about what happened just now to avoid unnecessary trouble.” “Got it, Dad,” Leng Zhiruo agreed.

“How are your injuries?” Leng Tiannan suddenly asked Leng Zhiruo with concern.

Leng Zhiruo was slightly stunned and said, “I’m fine.”

Leng Tiannan said coldly, “If the peace talks fail, you and I have to be prepared to infiltrate the White Lotus Society and save your brother.”

Her father’s concern was…

The night wind in early summer was warm, but it pierced her lungs like ice in winter.

Leng Zhiruo lowered her eyes. ‘Yes.”

After Leng Zhiruo left, Leng Tiannan sat quietly in the room alone.

He didn’t turn on the light.

His entire body was swallowed by the dark mouth of the abyss.

He did not deliberately frame Wei Xu and his sons.

He didn’t do it on purpose…

He didn’t…

On the roof, two black shadows used qinggong to leave without leaving a trace.

After flas.h.i.+ng back into the house, the two of them pulled off their veils.

“There’s something wrong with Leng Tiannan.” The Old Marquis frowned and said, “Your father and brothers’ death back then was definitely related to him. However, it’s hard to say if it was done deliberately.”

Wei Ting nodded slightly.

He also sensed that something was wrong with Leng Tiannan’s reaction.

He was too agitated.

However, just as the Old Marquis had said, he might have only made a momentary mistake, causing the whereabouts of his father and brothers to be exposed.

He said calmly, “Even if it’s a mistake, it’s unforgivable.”

The Old Marquis looked at Wei Ting in surprise. At such a young age, he was determined, straightforward, and ruthless.

“That’s right. If he really did something wrong, he should have stood up and admitted it. He shouldn’t have enjoyed the military merits earned by the Wei family and divided the Wei family’s military power with a clear conscience. More importantly, in order to cover up his mistake back then, did he delay in the subsequent rescue?”

This was not difficult to understand.

If Leng Tiannan had really unintentionally revealed their whereabouts back then and Leng Tiannan had realized it himself, should he immediately lead his troops to chase after them or pretend not to know?

As he led the troops to chase after them, Wei Xu would have asked him, “Why are you here? Do you know that the Northern Yan army will attack at night?”

What did he say?

Because I accidentally leaked your whereabouts to Northern Yan?

In this way, Leng Tiannan would undoubtedly be punished by military law.

If it was just a mistake, it would not be the most detestable. However, if Leng Tiannan clearly had a chance to remedy it and deliberately did not take action to cover up his mistake, he would really deserve to die.

The Old Marquis patted Wei Ting’s shoulder. “Let’s settle the White Lotus Society first. It won’t be too late to investigate Leng Tiannan when we return to the capital.”

Wei Ting said calmly, “Okay.”

At dawn, Su Ergou was woken up by the servants of the Su family. After was.h.i.+ng up and eating breakfast, he prepared to go to school with Su Qi and Su Yu.

Just as he was about to leave the courtyard, an adorable little child jumped over.

“Uncle!”

“Xiao… Hu?” Su Ergou scratched his head, not sure which little fellow it was.

Because Dahu’s forehead did not have a whirl, it was actually the easiest to recognize.

However, Erhu and Xiaohu had them. He often could not tell the two of them apart.

“Oh, Erhu.” Su Ergou asked, “Why are you up so early?” “I want to go out and play,” Erhu said.

Su Ergou said, “I have cla.s.s and can’t take you out to play.”

Erhu raised his head and said, “Just send me to the Imperial Astronomy Center! ”

Su Ergou looked behind Erhu. “Aren’t you going to wait for Dahu and Xiaohu?”

Erhu said, “They’re still sleeping. I’ll go with them next time!”

Su Ergou scratched his head doubtfully. “Then, okay.”

Su Ergou, Su Qi, and Su Yu sent Erhu to the Imperial Astronomy Center. “Goodbye, Uncle Ergou. Goodbye, Uncle Qi. Goodbye, Uncle Yu!” Erhu waved at them politely and turned to enter the Imperial Astronomy.

He went straight to Star Pavilion.

Sikong Yun had just woken up when he saw a baby standing at his door. His body trembled.

Erhu raised his little face and said cutely and seriously, “Grandpa Sikong, I want to enter the palace.”

Sikong Yun woke up halfway. “You know how to enter the palace?”

Erhu said, “Xiaohu entered the palace.”

When Madam Tao bathed Xiaohu last night, Xiaohu woke up and showed off his experience in the palace.

There were many fun things in the palace. Erhu wanted to go too.

Erhu was the smartest of the three little ones. Xiaohu was stupid and did not know anything, but Erhu understood everything.

It was Sikong Yun’s big box that “sent” Xiaohu into the palace.

Sikong Yun said angrily, “Hmph, no way!”

Erhu said seriously, “If you don’t send me there, I’ll tell Xiaohu where your suona is hidden!”

The corners of Sikong Yun’s mouth twitched.

He could not take it anymore. If he played the suona again, wouldn’t he be sent to the sky on the spot to stand shoulder to shoulder with the rising sun?

An hour later, a box of pills from the Imperial Astronomers was sent to the Empress Dowager’s Eternal Life Palace.

“These are medicinal pills refined for the Empress Dowager. They can nourish your qi and blood and extend your life.” With that, Yu Feng said to the little kid behind him, “The medicinal child will serve the Empress Dowager.”

A little child in a Daoist robe entered the Empress Dowager’s bedroom with a box of pills.

The Empress Dowager’s listless eyes instantly lit up. She quickly dismissed the palace servants. “Xiaohu?”

Erhu said, “Great-grandmother, I’m Erhu!”

The empress dowager was so shocked that she could not speak. Erhu skipped up to her. “Great-grandmother, Erhu misses you.”

The Empress Dowager pulled the little fellow into her arms excitedly.

“Great-grandmother misses Erhu too… I miss you so much…”

She had just seen Xiaohu yesterday and saw Erhu today.. Was she dreaming?
