Looking at her like this, Jing Yi felt that she was not like his sister.
When his sister heard these things, she would ask him to stop talking in fear.
However, Su Xiaoxiao had the rare bravery of a woman in the world.
He said, “It was also done by the White Lotus Society. That place was once a stronghold of the White Lotus Society. The corpses buried in the cellar were all believers of the White Lotus Society. Rumor has it that the White Lotus Society has a tradition of making offerings… The Imperial Capital thinks that those dead people might have offered to be sacrificed voluntarily.”
Voluntary sacrifice?
This White Lotus Society was a big evil sect!
“How did the White Lotus Society come about? How many years has it been in the Great Zhou?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Jing Yi thought for a moment and said, “I’m not sure how it came about. It just… suddenly happened. It seemed to have been preaching for about ten to twenty years. ”
Su Xiaoxiao was deep in thought.
She had heard from Wei Ting that the archer was from a martial arts organization that had been destroyed many years ago.
Perhaps the White Lotus Society was built by the remnants of that martial arts organization.
Back then, that martial arts organization was destroyed by Wei Ting’s grandfather, Lord Wu An. The other party must hate Lord Wu An and the Wei family to the core.
Thinking of Wei Ting’s repeated assassinations and the pusher behind the hatred between the Wei and Qin families, Su Xiaoxiao felt that this White Lotus Society was very suspicious.
At the Protectorate.
Qin Canglan had just brought Su Cheng to the military camp. Next month, Su Cheng would be handed his military power. Before that, he hoped to let Su Cheng familiarize himself with the environment.
He did not force Su Cheng to move back to the Protectorate. Su Cheng needed to slowly adapt to his identity, so he could not be anxious.
When he returned to the courtyard, he got someone to call Steward Cen to the study.
“How’s Qin Jiang?” Qin Canglan asked.
Steward Cen said, “The imperial physician took a look. He said that… his injuries are too serious. His right leg is probably going to be crippled.”
Qin Canglan said nothing.
Steward Cen probed, “Old Master, are you sad?”
Qin Canglan glanced at him coldly. “Are you crazy or am I crazy?”
Steward Cen smiled awkwardly. “I spoke too much.’
From the moment Qin Jiang framed Su Cheng, he was no longer innocent. Unless Qin Canglan was crazy, he would never sympathize with Qin Jiang.
Qin Canglan thought for a moment and said, “Get them to move out!”
Originally, on account that they were of the Qin family’s bloodline, he had left them a place to stay in the Western Campus. Unexpectedly, each of them was more restless than the other. Qin Yun was even more so at a young age and had dealt with Ergou time and time again.
This time, someone almost died.
If Wei Ting had not sacrificed his hand, Ergou’s head would have been pierced.
None of these troublemakers could stay in the residence.
Steward Cen was not surprised by this decision. The old Duke Protector was not a cold-blooded and heartless person, but he was definitely not a soft-hearted person. If one dared to attack the young masters, he would be chased out.
Manager Cen was about to agree when the servant reported that Qin Yanran had come.
Qin Canglan’s expression was hidden in the shadows and was difficult to read.
Steward Cen looked at him carefully and asked, “Shall I… send her away?”
Qin Canglan said calmly, “Let her in.”
Manager Cen waved at the servant. The servant understood and led Qin Yanran into the study.
Qin Yanran was dressed plainly and her hair accessories were simple.
She slowly bowed to Qin Canglan. “Yanran is here to bid farewell to Grandpa.”
Qin Canglan said coldly, “I’m not your grandfather.”
Qin Yanran didn’t seem to have heard Qin Canglan. She lowered her eyes and said softly, “We’re moving out of the residence. Thank you for raising us all these years… farewell!”
With that, she slowly knelt down and kowtowed three times to Qin Canglan.
Looking at her departing back, Steward Cen was at a loss. “Master, she’s…”
Qin Canglan said calmly, “Ignore her. Let her go.”
“Then… should we send someone to keep an eye on them?”
“No need.”
Qin Yanran did not take too many things with her. She dismissed the servants in the courtyard and only left a few trusted aides who took care of them. Then, she sat in a carriage to leave the residence.
Xu Qing placed her box away and was about to leave.
“Sit down,” Qin Yanran said.
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment before sitting down opposite Qin Yanran. He reached out and gestured for the coachman outside to leave.
The carriage slowly drove out of the Protector Duke’s Estate.
The sky was completely dark, and the carriage was pitch-black.
Xu Qing asked, “Do you want me to hold the lamp?”
Qin Yanran did not answer him. Instead, she said lightly, “Xu Qing, after leaving this mansion, I’ll no longer be the eldest daughter of the Protector Duke. Are you sure you’re still following us?”
Xu Qing said, “Master saved my life. I will be loyal to him for the rest of my life.
Qin Yanran asked, “What about me? Will you be loyal to me too?”
In the darkness, her clear beautiful eyes stared straight at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing’s eyes moved. He stood up and knelt on one knee. “I’m willing to go through fire and water for Miss!”
After the three-day vacation, the Palace Academy resumed class.
Su Xiaoxiao arrived late, and most of the daughters in the classroom had already arrived.
Everyone gathered around Miss Wang’s table and whispered.
“Have you heard? The competition between Qin Jiang and the Duke Protector has ended.”
“Three days have passed. Of course, it’s over.”
“Do you know who won?”
“Of course, it’s Qin Jiang! That Su Cheng grew up in the countryside. How can he compare to Qin Jiang, who was raised in the Duke’s Estate for twenty years?”
“Then you’re really wrong! Su Cheng won!”
“How is that possible?”
“That’s right. How can Su Cheng win against Qin Jiang? Two out of three rounds. Which two aspects did he win?
“He won the martial arts, riding and archery, and art of war!” Gasps sounded in the classroom.
Obviously, everyone was very surprised by this outcome.
Miss Wang, who was packing her books, said in confusion, “If Qin Jiang loses, Miss Qin will be pitiful in the future… Will she still come to class?”
This question successfully stumped everyone.
That was right. The fact that Qin Yanran was not Qin Canglan’s biological granddaughter already made her status awkward. Now that her father had lost his power, how could she stand in the capital in the future?
The eldest daughter of the Lu family, Lu Li, said softly, “Haven’t you… heard?
Something… happened to Miss Qin.”
In the imperial study, Xiao Duye knelt on the ground with a solemn expression. Xiao Zhonghua and the other two princes stood at the side with solemn expressions.
Emperor Jingxuan sat behind the desk opposite them with a furious expression.
He looked coldly at Xiao Duye, who had his head lowered, and said sternly, “What did you do?”
Emperor Jingxuan was not a temperamental emperor. On the contrary, he was rarely angry. To be able to force him to this extent, it was obvious how angry he was.
Indeed, it was also because he had been unhappy recently.
The imperial study was silent.
Eunuch Fu came to the door with a pot of tea. When he heard the emperor’s anger, he closed his eyes and decided not to go in first.
“She’s your third brother’s fiancée!” Emperor Jing Xuan was about to explode.
Xiao Duye lowered his head aggrievedly. “I… I had no choice…”
Emperor Jingxuan snorted.. “You had no choice? Was there no one on the shore?”
