Su Xiaoxiao took out the dagger at her waist. “My father’s dagger fell off. Please give this to my father.”

Su Qi took the dagger and strode towards the entrance of the hunting ground.

“Uncle! ”

Su Cheng tightened the reins.

The others also habitually looked back.

Su Qi saw that person’s face clearly.

After handing the dagger to Su Cheng, he returned to his seat.

The Old Marquis and Qin Canglan were called over by Emperor Jing Xuan. Wei

Ting was not there either. He was there to supervise the marking of the papers. Su Yu said, “What’s wrong, Second Brother? You don’t look right.”

Su Qi clenched his fists and said with a serious expression, “The imperial guard beside Qin Jiang… was… the archer who hid in the forest that night!”

Su Yu was stunned. “You mean the expert who escaped from Big Brother?”

Su Qi nodded. “That’s right!”

Su Yu confirmed again, “The was the one who assassinated the Third Prince and Wei Ting?”

Su Qi said seriously, “It’s him! He covered his face that night, but I remember his figure and eyes… There’s a small scar on his right eyelid… I can’t be wrong!

Oh no, Uncle is in danger!”

Su Yu was a little confused. “Second Brother… I don’t understand..

Su Xiaoxiao explained patiently, “Wei Ting and Xiao Zhonghua were assassinated. The Eldest Prince arrived with the imperial guards and killed the last few survivors. At that time, the archer in the forest escaped. If that archer was also from the imperial guards, it proves that the Eldest Prince’s appearance that night was not a coincidence. The assassination was arranged by him!”

She and Wei Ting had long guessed this, but Su Yu did not think too deeply about it.

Su Qi nodded. “That’s right!”

Su Yu was still puzzled. “But what does this have to do with whether Uncle is in danger?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “No matter who wins tonight, the Emperor intends to hand the military power to Xiao Zhonghua through marriage. How would the Eldest Prince be willing to let his younger brother obtain military power? He will definitely stop it.”

Su Yu seemed to understand a little. “How would he stop it?”

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Kill them both.”

Su Yu’s face paled in shock. “What?!”

“This, this, this…” Su Yu lowered his voice and said, “Is he so bold? This is under His Majesty’s nose!”

His Majesty’s nose!”

Su Qi said coldly, “It’s because he’s right under our noses that no one will suspect him. Besides, if he’s not bold, how can he be the emperor?”

In this world, the timid would starve to death while the bold would die from overeating.

Su Qi and Su Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Duye, who was chatting happily with Emperor Jing Xuan.

The siblings exchanged glances and stood up at the same time.

Su Yu asked, “What are you doing? Don’t tell me you’re going to report the Eldest Prince?”

Su Qi shook his head. “There’s no evidence. It’s useless even if we report it. At most, the Eldest Prince will stop the operation and blame us.”

Su Yu probed tentatively, “Then..

Su Qi said, “We have something to do and have to leave.”

Su Yu panicked. “Hey, Second Brother! Daya! You guys… bring me along!”

Su Xiaoxiao said to him, “Stay here and find a chance to tell Xiao Zhonghua.”

Su Yu asked softly, “Is he reliable? Will he help Qin Jiang and use the Eldest

Prince to kill Uncle?” Su Xiaoxiao paused. “He won’t.”

“Let’s go,” Su Qi said.

“Hey, hey, hey, you guys…” Su Yu wanted to shout, but he did not dare to be too loud. He could only watch as the two of them left.

The royal hunting ground was not in the palace. There were no impenetrable walls around it, but there was a natural barrier. It was not easy to sneak in.

“Although my martial arts aren’t as good as Big Brother’s, in terms of familiarity with the terrain, Big Brother isn’t as good as me.” Su Qi smiled.

He brought Su Xiaoxiao to the other side of the forest.

It was a seemingly calm lake.

“Wait for me here. I’ll sneak in from below.”

“No need.”

Su Xiaoxiao said.

“You know how to swim?” Su Qi asked.

“A little.” Su Xiaoxiao.

She said a little, but as soon as she got into the water, she left Su Qi far behind like a fish.
