Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Prime Minister Guo arrived at the Dali Temple at five in the afternoon.

He was the head of the civil officials and an elder of three dynasties. He was deeply valued as the emperor’s weapon. Even if the minister of the Dali Temple did not follow his lead, he could not offend him.

“Prime Minister Guo.” The minister welcomed him at the door.

Prime Minister Guo said with authority, “I heard that your Dali Temple captured my grandson. Is that true?”

“Ah, that’s true,” the minister admitted.

“I wonder what crime my grandson has committed?”

“He crashed into Emperor Taizu’s statue. This is one. He committed murder.

This is two. The third is that he refused to be arrested and attacked an official.”

Prime Minister Guo flicked his wide sleeve and said coldly, “I understand my grandson. He will never do what you said.”

The minister of the Dali Temple said awkwvardly, “The Third Prince is interrogating Guo Huan inside. If Prime Minister Guo has any questions, you can ask the Third Prince.”

If he couldn’t suppress Prime Minister, the Third Prince could, right? This ability to pass the buck was also impressive.

Prime Minister Guo, accompanied by the minister of the Dali Temple, went to see Guo Huan in the torture chamber.

When he went out just now, he was still awake.

“Your Highness.” Prime Minister Guo bowed to Xiao Zhonghua in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.

“Prime Minister Guo.” Xiao Zhonghua nodded slightly. Seeing Prime Minister Guo frown at Guo Huan, he said calmly, “He just fell asleep.”

Prime Minister Guo cupped his hands and said, “I’ve heard about the several crimes committed by my grandson from Lord Liao. I have many doubts and want to ask Your Highness.”

Xiao Zhonghua said, “Prime Minister Guo, there’s no harm in saying so.”

Prime Minister Guo glanced at everyone. “You kept saying that my grandson smashed the statue and injured someone with a knife. Do you have evidence?”

The minister replied, “The officials of the Dali Temple saw him smash the statue with their own eyes. As for the murder, although they didn’t see him kill anyone, according to the victim, he stabbed the victim in the chest.”

Prime Minister Guo snorted coldly. “In that case, it’s the victim’s side of the story.”

Xiao Zhonghua said, “Prime Minister Guo, the victim is Wei Ting.” Prime Minister Guo said confidently, “I know!”

Before coming, the servant told him everything he had found out.

Ordinary princes might not be able to suppress an elder like Prime Minister Guo. However, Xiao Zhonghua did not back down at all. “Therefore, Prime

Minister Guo should understand that Wei Ting will not slander your grandson.”

Prime Minister Guo said coldly, “He won’t slander my grandson. Will my grandson harm him? Is Third Prince biased?”

Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “Both sides have their own opinions. The Dali Temple is investigating.”

The accompanying servant reported at the door, “Master, Physician Zhu is here!”

Prime Minister Guo said, “My grandson is unconscious. It’s not too much for me to ask the imperial physician to treat him, right?”

Xiao Zhonghua said, “Go ahead.”

Doctor Zhu carried the small medicine box in. He took Guo Huan’s pulse with a strange expression.

“May I ask if Young Master Guo is more agitated than usual?”

“That’s right!” The minister of the Dali Temple was deeply enlightened.

“Irritable,fierce…”

Halfway through, he felt Prime Minister Guo’s death stare. He choked. “He’s indeed more agitated than usual.’ Physician Zhu said, “Looks like it.”

“What is it?” the minister asked.

“He was drugged,” Doctor Zhu asked. “Can you find what he took or drank today?”

The minister said, “This… Ah, a carriage!”

The carriage, which was the first crime scene, was retained by the Dali Temple. The things inside were all physical evidence, and none of them had been touched.

The minister remembered that there were two cups of unfinished tea on the table of the carriage.

He immediately got someone to bring Physcian Zhu into the carriage detained in the courtyard.

Doctor Zhu sniffed the tea carefully and dipped his fingertip into it to taste it. “It tastes very faint and is mixed in the tea. Ordinary people can’t taste it, but it should be right.”

“What is it?” the minister asked.

Doctor Zhu said, “Datura! The anesthetic boiling powder and knockout medicine are made from the Datura Flower. It can make people lose consciousness, but very few people know that a small amount of Datura seeds mixed in the Datura Flower will have the opposite effect. It makes people excited, impulsive, and even hallucinate.”

The minister came to a realization. “No wonder Young Master Guo’s personality changed drastically…”

Prime Minister Guo said, “Doctor Zhu, in your opinion, is it possible that

Huan’er killed someone under an illusion because he took this medicine?”

Doctor Zhu said, “It’s completely possible.”

Prime Minister Guo looked at the minister. “Lord Liao, if that’s the case, Huan’er is also a victim. The person who really drugged Huan’er is the culprit of this case!”

Since Guo Huan had committed murder under the effects of the medicine, he had naturally destroyed the statue and attacked the officials under the effects of the medicine.

All the charges could be overturned.

The minister recalled, “Didn’t Wei Ting drink it too?”

Of the two cups, one belonged to Guo Huan and the other to Wei Ting.

An official said, “Could it be that Wei Ting drugged Guo Huan?”

Another official said, “Wei Ting drugged Guo Huan so that he could kill himself?”

This was very unreasonable.

Prime Minister Guo did not participate in the discussion. “Investigating the case is your Dali Temple’s business, and it’s not convenient for me to interfere.

However, my grandson is innocent. Your Dali Temple can let him go, right?”

This was a matter of great importance. The minister of the Dali Temple sent someone to the medical center and obtained testimony from Wei Ting. Guo Huan had indeed suddenly become strange. It was as if he was possessed.

This matched the symptoms of the Datura poison.

Guo Huan was acquitted, but Wei Ting was targeted by the Dali Temple.

The carriage was Wei Ting’s, and the tea was Wei Ting’s. He was suspected of poisoning Guo Huan.

However, after the Dali Temple carefully investigated Wei Ting and those related to him, they did not discover anyone who had bought the Datura.

What a joke. Su Xiaoxiao had taken the Datura from the base’s pharmacy. It would be strange if they could investigate it.

Speaking of which, she had been getting better at entering the base’s pharmacy recently.

It seemed that treating more people could really yield more opportunities to enter the pharmacy.

Physician Zhu took Guo Huan’s pulse. It was the real Guo Huan, but the person who was brought into the carriage was Su Li.

When he saw Su MO bring another “Guo Huan” into the Dali Temple from the back door, Xiao Zhonghua had goosebumps.

It was also at this moment that he really understood Wei Ting’s intentions.

It turned out that from the beginning, Wei Ting had never thought of using the Dali Temple to lock Guo Huan up.

He only treated the Dali Temple as a courier station and swapped it with Guo

Huan.

The reason why he left a flaw was to let Prime Minister Guo successfully protect the fake Guo Huan.

“Why did he do this?” Jing Yi asked.

“Three goals,” Xiao Zhonghua said. “Collect evidence of Guo Huan’s crimes, investigate the relationship between the Guo family and the White Lotus Society, and infiltrate the White Lotus Society.”

Xiao Zhonghua had once been Wei Ting’s enemy. The difference was that Xiao Zhonghua never underestimated his enemy.

Was it difficult to admit that others were outstanding? This was where Guo Huan had fallen short.

“Will Wei Ting kill Guo Huan?” Jing Yi asked.

“Guo Huan is still useful,” Xiao Zhonghua said.

Jing Yi said suspiciously, “Strange, why is Wei Ting so keen to help you investigate the White Lotus Society?”

Xiao Zhonghua narrowed his eyes and said, “He’s not helping me. He’s helping himself. If I’m not wrong, there’s something strange about the deaths of the Wei family’s men four years ago. It might be related to the White Lotus

Society.”

Jing Yi seemed to have an epiphany. “So, Wei Ting wants to use us to find the murderer behind the scenes?”

Xiao Zhonghua said seriously, “The White Lotus Society is a huge threat to the Imperial Court. Our goals are the same. He wants revenge, and I want the country..”
