“Does he have a grudge against the Wei family?”

There was a reason why Su Xiaoxiao asked.

As the families of two enemy countries, it was not strange for them to be irreconcilable. The problem was that the Wei family was not the only family of generals in the Great Zhou. Why was Helian Ye only targeting the Wei family?

Wei Ting thought for a moment. “I’m not sure either. Before the battle between the two armies, I didn’t hear that Grandfather had a personal grudge with Helian Ye.”

This was strange. If there was no personal grudge, why did Helian Ye say that he would kill everyone in the Wei family?

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Was Helian Ye also responsible for the deaths of Father and his brothers? Have you fought him?”

Wei Ting shook his head slightly. “I didn’t fight him. My grandfather once fought Helian Ye and severely injured him before he died. By the time I rushed to the border, Helian Ye had already switched to defence.”

In fact, Helian Ye was quite seriously injured. Even he thought that he would not live long- Tt took him more than half a year to recover from his injuries

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao had an idea why Northern Yan kept delaying the tribute.

They thought that the reason why Northern Yan had lost was that Helian Ye did not go to the battlefield and let Wei Ting, a young brat, take advantage of the situation for nothing.

The first year, they paid the annual tribute on time because Helian Ye’s injuries had yet to recover. While they did not acknowledge Wei Ting’s strength, they were afraid that Wei Ting would make a comeback.

After Helian Ye recovered, this worry gradually disappeared. They became bolder. Coupled with the fact that they had hooked up with the Western Jin, they looked down on the Great Zhou even more. “Let’s go,” Su Xiaoxiao said to Wei Ting.

“Yes.” Wei Ting nodded.

Outside the throne room, Helian Ye seemed to have sensed something and looked over.

Wei Ting had already left, but he suddenly stopped and looked at Helian Ye coldly.

Their eyes met from afar, and a murderous aura spread throughout the palace.

“General,” his colleague reminded him.

Helian Ye retracted his gaze and entered the throne room with him.

In Zhaoyang Hall, Bai Xihe had just finished reading a book and was angered by the sc.u.mbag in the novel. When she heard that Wei Ting and his new Madam had come, her expression improved.

She placed the script back on the table. “Let them in. The few of you can leave.”

‘Yes.”

The palace servants retreated.

Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao entered. As the Grand Empress Dowager’s most trusted confidant, Little Yunzi guarded the door to prevent outsiders from spying.

Wei Ting was not familiar with Bai Xihe. After greeting her, he quietly waited at the side and faded into the background.

The two women sat together and chatted harmoniously.

Wei Ting had once seen Bai Xihe in the palace. She was high up in the air and looked otherworldly, but in front of Su Xiaoxiao, she seemed to have put down her disguise.

“Is this good?” Su Xiaoxiao picked up the book on the table and asked.

Bai Xihe said disdainfully, “It’s not.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Then why are you still reading it?”

Bai Xihe sighed. “I’m just killing time.”

It was lonely in the deep palace. Only these lousy words could comfort her.

Su Xiaoxiao still had to see the Empress Dowager and the two princesses later. After sitting for a while, she planned to leave.

However, at this moment, a strange commotion came from under Bai Xihe’s bed.

Knock, knock, knock, knock!

There was someone under the bed!

There was even a secret signal!

Su Xiaoxiao decisively came to the bed. It was too late for Bai Xihe to stop her. Su Xiaoxiao lifted the bedboard and pulled out the dagger at her waist—

“Dad?”

“Daughter?”

The father and daughter were dumbfounded.

Su Xiaoxiao was confused.

What kind of large-scale scene of acknowledgment was this? Su Xiaoxiao asked strangely, “Dad? Why are you here?”

Su Cheng said truthfully, “I came to look for Madam Bai! You’re also here! There’s no one else in the hall, right?”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her father suspiciously. Didn’t she know what had happened? How could her father come to look for Bai Xihe?

She replied, “No, other than the Grand Empress Dowager, it’s just Wei Ting and me.”

“Son-in-law?” Su Cheng crawled out of the tunnel. A day apart felt like three years. He missed his son-in-law so much!

“Dad,” Wei Ting greeted. He did not expect this either—there was a secret pa.s.sage under the Empress Dowager’s bed, and his father-in-law had crawled out of the secret pa.s.sage.

What was going on?

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Dad, you haven’t said why you’re here.”

Su Cheng crawled out of the secret pa.s.sage and patted the dust off his body. “Oh, I’m here to take Madam Bai away.”

The couple choked.

Did they hear wrongly?

Did their father intend to abduct the Grand Empress Dowager?

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to say, “Dad, my biological father, this is a capital crime.”

Su Cheng still did not know that he was courting death. He said proudly, “The last time I came to Zhaoyang Hall to investigate the spies of the White Lotus Society, I wanted to take Madam Bai away, but there were too many people around me, so it’s not convenient for me to attack. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity recently. Didn’t an envoy happen to enter the palace today? There are too many people, so it’s convenient to take advantage of the situation! Am I smart?”

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t look at her father anymore.

At most, she would rob the White Lotus Society’s vault, but her father wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the Grand Empress Dowager.

Was he forcing Qin Canglan to rebel?

Su Cheng looked at Su Xiaoxiao’s indescribable expression and asked in confusion, “Daughter, what’s with your expression? Ah, don’t tell me you don’t know Madam Bai’s ident.i.ty?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “What ident.i.ty?”

Su Cheng looked at Bai Xihe. “She’s from the White Lotus Society. She was threatened by MO Guiyuan and had no choice but to pretend to be the Grand Empress Dowager. Now that MO Guiyuan is dead and the White Lotus Society has been destroyed, she can leave in peace.”

Bai Xihe covered her eyes desperately in embarra.s.sment.

Su Xiaoxiao asked solemnly again, “Dad, who did that undergarment belong to last time?”

Su Cheng’s eyes flashed. “W… What undergarment?”

Su Xiaoxiao looked straight into her father’s eyes and pointed at Bai Xihe. She asked solemnly, “Is it hers?”

“Ahem.” Su Cheng cleared his throat. “Daughter, I can explain.”

When he realized that he had stepped on Madam Bails undergarment, he wanted to pick it up and return it to her, but he was too nervous. His brain twitched and he actually put it in his arms.

By the time he reacted, he had already left Zhaoyang Hall…

Su Xiaoxiao’s expression became even more serious. “Then why did you keep it on you!”

Su Cheng said resentfully, “I was just looking for an opportunity to return it to her… I don’t know when I would enter the palace… Don’t worry, I didn’t see anything! I… I turned around… I… I didn’t look.. I promise I didn’t look..

“You even looked at her body?”

Su Xiaoxiao felt terrible.

She thought that she was already courting death. Compared to her father, where was she?

Her legitimate husband had never even seen her body before, but he had already soared into the sky. Her father… was quite lucky with women.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and still felt that her father had the right to know the truth. “Dad, there’s something I have to tell you.”

Su Cheng said, “Tell me.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Bai Xihe and said, “She’s not from the White Lotus

Society, nor is she pretending to enter the palace. She’s the Grand Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou—Bai Xihe..”
