Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The news that the rebels of the White Lotus Society had been captured by Xiao Zhonghua and brought back to the Dali Temple spread to the Eldest Prince’s residence.

Xiao Duye finally understood that he had been tricked by Wei Ting and Qin

Canglan. Originally, he still had a trace of doubt about Guardian He’s words. Now, he completely believed the fact that the Qin and Wei families had long colluded.

“Damn it!”

He slammed his fist on the table.

“Have they all joined Xiao Zhonghua?”

He gritted his teeth.

“Your Highness.” His trusted guard stood beside him and asked worriedly, “Will the White Lotus Society sell Your Highness out?”

Xiao Duye said with a dark expression, “Only Guardian He knows my identity. I’ve always been wearing a mask, and no one else has seen my face. If they really want to sell me out, I shall just deny it.” His trusted guard said, “Guardian He… ”

Xiao Duye said firmly, “He won’t betray me.”

In the torture chamber of the Dali Temple, Guardian He was tied to an iron chair.

Xiao Zhonghua looked at him calmly. “His surname is He. He’s the guardian of the White Lotus Society. I heard that there are a total of eight guardians in the White Lotus Society. I wonder what rank Guardian He is?”

Guardian He snorted disdainfully. “What does it have to do with you?”

Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “You were betrayed by Big Brother. I’m sure you know this.”

“Haha!” Guardian He laughed mockingly. “Your brother betrayed us and gave you the credit? Third Prince, are you naive or am I stupid?”

Xiao Zhonghua did not look flustered at all. “Because that’s the only way to clear his name and prevent your White Lotus Society from suspecting him. Look, didn’t you fall for it yourself?”

Guardian He’s smile froze.

Xiao Zhonghua coaxed, “As long as you cooperate obediently, I might be able to spare you and your subordinates.”

Guardian He said coldly, “Don’t waste your effort! The people of the White Lotus School are not afraid of death! If you want to kill or torture me, do as you please!”

Xiao Zhonghua looked at him with a sharp gaze. “It’s fine if you’re stubborn. I don’t believe you won’t relent after the torture at the Dali Temple. Or… does my brother have something on you?” Guardian He clenched his fists.

Guardian He clenched his fists.

Su Xiaoxiao woke up late the next day.

The three little fellows had already gone to school, and Su Cheng was cultivating in the courtyard.

Su Xiaoxiao yawned and walked out. “Dad, aren’t you going to the military camp today?”

“I’ll go later!”

Su Cheng was worried about his fat daughter and wanted to stay at home for a while.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao looking around, he said, “Son-in-law went out.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m not looking for Wei Ting.”

Su Cheng thought for a moment. “Oh, Dahu and the others went to school, and

Ergou went to the Directorate.”

Su Xiaoxiao was surprised. “Ergou went to class?”

Su Cheng said, “Your brother is fine long ago. Don’t worry about him!”

The truth was that Su Ergou was being pressed by his two cousins for tutoring all day long. He was so tutored that he hurriedly packed his bags and started to go to the Directorate at the first opportunity.

Su Mo’s carriage stopped at the door.

Su Cheng took a look and asked Su Xiaoxiao, “Are you still going to the palace today?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Sending medicinal cuisine to the Empress Dowager.”

After a period of recuperation, the Empress Dowager’s complexion had improved a lot, and her legs were stronger. It was precisely because of this that she could not interrupt the treatment. She had to strike while the iron was hot and recuperate her body in one go.

Su Xiaoxiao ate a corn cob and loaded the cooked medicinal cuisine.

When she returned to the house to get the medicine box, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the swallowtail dart on the table.

“Oh, I forgot to ask Wei Ting if he knows this.”

When Su Xiaoxiao arrived at Yongshou Palace, the Empress Dowager was walking in the courtyard with Eunuch Cheng’s help.

As she walked, she didn’t forget to glance at the door.

Eunuch Cheng saw through it but did not expose it.

After walking back and forth a few times, Su Xiaoxiao finally appeared.

“Empress Dowager, you’re up.”

Su Xiaoxiao walked over with the food box and medicine box.

The little palace maid went forward and helped Su Xiaoxiao carry the first aid kit and food box.

The Empress Dowager said, “Look at the time.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I woke up late today.”

“I’m not talking about you.” The Empress Dowager sighed. “Forget it, why are you here?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I have to come every day.”

“I will take the medicine. You don’t have to watch,” the Empress Dowager said as her gaze swept across the food box. “It’s fine if I don’t eat the medicinal cuisine for a day.”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “I’m fine too.’

The Empress Dowager glanced at her and hit the nail on the head. “I think you just don’t want to go to the palace to study.”

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “How can that be? I’m concerned about the Empress Dphoenix body.”

The Empress Dowager snorted and turned to enter the bedroom.
