It seemed that she had to go to the peach forest to meet this poison expert from Western Jin.

After leaving Madam Chu’s courtyard, Su Xiaoxiao went to Matriarch Wei and told her about Madam Chu’s difficult secrets.

Old Madam Wei sighed. “Why didn’t she say anything? Why has she been keeping it to herself? If she said it, the Wei family would think of a way with her…

Su Xiaoxiao said nothing.

MO Guiyuan must have his means to successfully threaten so many people.

Sometimes, from the perspective of others, they felt that it was easy to say it, but perhaps it was not the case for the person involved.

Old Madam Wei held Su Xiaoxiao’s hand. “If you have anything in the future, remember to say it.”

“Oh, okay.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Matriarch Wei, do you blame her?”

Old Madam Wei said, “Would you believe me if I said that I don’t blame her at

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Uh… I don’t know.”

Old Madam Wei sighed. “But the culprit is MO Guiyuan. She was also forced. I Imow this very well. Moreover, at this point, it’s useless to say anything else. I only hope to catch MO Guiyuan as soon as possible and eliminate the White Lotus Society. You have to be careful yourself.”

“I will,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

After Su Xiaoxiao left, Nanny Li brought over a bowl of ginseng soup. ‘Miss Su brought it over.”

Old Madam Wei originally didn’t have an appetite. When she heard that it was from Su Xiaoxiao, she brought it over and took two sips.

She glanced at Nanny Li and asked, “Do you have something to say?”

Nanny Li said, “I think this Miss Su, who grew up in the countryside, is very compatible with Seventh Young Master.” Old Madam Wei said calmly, “How are they compatible?”

Nanny Li said, “She’s bold and decisive.”

Matriarch Wei glared at Nanny Li. “Are you praising her or insulting her?”

Nanny Li smiled. “Aren’t you quite satisfied yourself?”

Old Madam Wei snorted. “Hmph, how am I satisfied? I don’t have a choice, right? For… for…”

She was stuck.

Nanny Li smiled uncontrollably. “For the sake of finding the mastermind who framed the Wei family.”

Old Madam Wei said seriously, “That’s right! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have agreed to the marriage with the Qin family!”

Nanny Li probed, “Then, should we give less of the betrothal gift?”

Old Madam Wei said without thinking, “That won’t do!”

Nanny Li received it in amusement. “Aren’t you dissatisfied?”

Old Madam Wei said seriously, “We can’t let others deride the Wei family for being stingy; they might sau can’t even afford the betrothal gift for Little Seven’s wife. ”

“Little Miss! Little Miss!”

The maidservant’s panting voice came from outside the house.

Wei Xiyue ran in.

Matriarch Wei hurriedly held her granddaughter’s hand and asked, “Why is

Xiyue here?”

This was Wei Liulang’s brush. His name was engraved on it.

Old Madam Wei said helplessly, “This child, why have you been touching your

Sixth Uncle’s belongings recently?”

In the peach forest, after the first day of peace negotiations ended in failure, the First Elder came to the courtyard where they were temporarily staying again on the night of the second day.

He didn’t come in broad daylight and specially chose to come at night.

The Old Marquis sat on the chair, pinched his fingers, and muttered.

The First Elder asked amiably, “Marquis Su, what are you doing?”

The Old Marquis said calmly, ‘We’re calculating what time you are choosing to head to the netherworld.”

The First Elder was speechless.

MO Guiyuan still did not appear, but other than the First Elder, there were two more Branch Masters. The negotiating lineup was much more luxurious than yesterday.

After some pleasantries, Xiao Zhonghua cut to the chase and expressed the outcome of the Imperial Court’s negotiation.

Firstly, it was impossible to treat the White Lotus Society as the country’s orthodox sect, but the Imperial Court could recognize the orthodox status of the White Lotus Society and allow it to preach formally among the commoners. The condition was that it could no longer do evil.

In addition, it was impossible for Emperor Jing Xuan to appoint MO Huiyuan as the Imperial Preceptor, but he could consider conferring MO Guiyuan the title of Heavenly Master Zhengyuan and be qualified to worship the emperor.

In the end, it was Xiao Zhonghua who made the decision to vouch for the White Lotus Society. The Imperial Court would return the captured hostages of the White Lotus Society and allow them to deal with them themselves.

Xiao Zhonghua said majestically, “My Great Zhou Imperial Court has never treated any martial arts sect so politely. I hope your sect will cherish it.” In other words, they should not be ungrateful.

The First Elder laughed angrily. “Your Highness, now that your Great Zhou Imperial Court has two princes in the peach forest of my White Lotus Society, aren’t you afraid of them not returning?”

Xiao Zhonghua said bluntly, “Then the Imperial Court can only send troops to eliminate the White Lotus Society! Just like how they eliminated the Sword Pavilion back then!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the First Elder and the other rebels of the White Lotus Society darkened.

The First Elder narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Your Highness, the marriage between Northern Yan and Western Jin is imminent. Is the Imperial Court really going to expend troops at this critical moment?”

Xiao Zhonghua snorted. “How many troops can a mere White Lotus Society cause us to expend internally? Grand Elder, don’t think too highly of yourself!”

The Second Elder was about to speak when he was stopped by a look from the First Elder.

The First Elder smiled and said, “Third Prince is trying to goad me into revealing how many private troops our White Lotus Society has. Unfortunately, why would I tell Third Prince such a confidential matter?”

Xiao Zhonghua’s expression did not change. “I’m afraid you don’t have any so-called private army at all. You’re just bluffing.”

The Great Elder sneered. “Third Prince, go ahead and try. Let’s see how many troops the Imperial Court and our White Lotus Society will lose!”

The two of them were negotiating experts, so it was difficult to tell who was better at the negotiation table.

Xiao Zhonghua said unhurriedly, “Our Great Zhou envoy has just returned from the Western Jin. The Western Jin will visit the Great Zhou soon. At that time, will our Great Zhou Imperial Court destroy the White Lotus Society alone, or will Western Jin also help the Imperial Court? Great Elder, why don’t you make a prediction?”

The Great Elder smiled. “What right does the Western Jin have to help the Great

Zhou settle its internal strife?”

Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “If Northern Yan can marry Western Jin, why can’t our Great Zhou?”

The First Elder gave a fake smile. “What marriage alliance does the Third Prince have with the Western Jin? Which of the two princesses will that be? Is it the legitimate princess who carries the luck of the royal family, or the number one beauty of the royal family, your biological sister?”

Xiao Zhonghua said casually, “You don’t have to worry about that, First Elder.”

The First Elder asked, “Is the Third Prince really willing?”

Xiao Zhonghua said, “The princess’s marriage is the princess’s life and fortune.

Why can’t I bear to part with her?”

It was not easy for the Great Elder to get Xiao Zhonghua to reveal anything. After at least a few rounds, he did not gain any advantage.

Xiao Zhonghua stood up and said coldly, “I’ve already given the White Lotus Society enough respect. I’ve negotiated with you sincerely twice in a row, but from the looks of it, the elders don’t seem to be able to make the call on behalf of the White Lotus Society. Let’s end it here today. Next time, we won’t talk unless it’s the Sect Master!”

“Oh? Did he really say that?”

After hearing the First Elder’s report, MO Guiyuan revealed an indiscernible smile. “This Third Prince is quite impressive.”

The Great Elder asked, “Are you going to meet him?”

MO Guiyuan smiled faintly. “There’s no need. Someone has already come over on his behalf. Come in, my good grandson..”
