This gossip was a little big, and everyone choked. Even Qin Canglan, the old demon, could not find his voice for a long time.

Sikong Yun glanced at them with an innocent expression as though he was removing himself. “You asked me to say it. Don’t blame me if you choke to death. ”

Qin Canglan came back to his senses and frowned. “Say it again. Who’s the child of the Eldest Princess and Wei Wei?”

“Helian Ye,” Sikong Yun repeated emotionlessly.

Wei Ting frowned and looked at him without blinking, as if he wanted to stare two holes in him.

Sikong Yun sighed again. “Even if you see the sea dry up and the rocks rot, I don’t have a second answer.”

Su Xiaoxiao went out for a while and came back with a stethoscope. She put on the earplugs and stuffed the stethoscope into his lapel.

Sikong Yun’s body trembled as he looked at Wei Ting in disbelief. “Hey! In broad daylight! Your wife touched a man, don’t you care!”

Wei Ting looked at him coldly.

Su Xiaoxiao asked the same question again.

Sikong Yun’s answers to every question were the same as before. More importantly, other than the moment Su Xiaoxiao approached, his heart rate did not fluctuate much.

Indeed, he was an old swindler and could lie easily. It was not surprising that he did not blush.

However, hearing the heart rate was only one of the ways to verify a lie. There were still three pairs of eyes staring at him. As long as he had any flaws, it was impossible for him to hide it.

Therefore, Sikong Yun did not deliberately lie to them about Helian Ye’s background.

The three of them exchanged glances.

Su Xiaoxiao put away her stethoscope and said, “Put Helian Ye’s matter aside first. We’ll verify if it’s true or not. There’s another matter now.” Sikong Yun pretended to be stupid. “What… what else?”

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “What do you think?”

“There’s nothing else…” Sikong Yun was a classic example of not crying until he saw the coffin. He would not confess unless one caught him red-handed. If he did not explain clearly, he would play dumb.

Dealing with such a person could not be done with deception.

However, Su Xiaoxiao was not lying to him. She had a conclusive deduction. “Did you do something to Wei Ting and me? Are you afraid of being discovered by us, so you escaped from the capital overnight?”

It was not good for her to be too smart.

Su Xiaoxiao said coldly, “I advise you not to quibble.”

Qin Canglan pulled out his saber.

“I’ll talk, I’ll talk!” Sikong Yun was afraid of these people. His gaze landed on Wei Ting’s face.

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes. “Is it me?”

Instead, he felt relieved.

Sikong Yun asked, “Have you… shown any signs of fatigue recently?”

“Physical Void Power?”

“Dizzy?”

“Neither have I.”

“That’s not right…” Sikong Yun looked confused. He stood up and came to Wei Ting. He carefully looked at Wei Ting’s face and took out a strange small metal box from his pocket for Wei Ting to hold.

Wei Ting shook it as he was told.

There was no movement in the box.

A trace of coldness flashed across Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes. “What did you do to Wei Ting?”

Sikong Yun cleared his throat. “Ahem, I poisoned him.” Swoosh!

Qin Canglan placed his long saber on his neck.

Sikong Yun trembled in fear. “Wait! Wait! Don’t kill me yet! Let me finish! He doesn’t have any Gu on him!”

The metal box contained a kind of worm. When it encountered someone who was poisoned, the worm would react.

“What Gu did you cast on me?” Wei Ting asked.

Sikong Yun told him the truth. “It is to let you be controlled by the Princess of

Northern Yan. But it’s strange that the Gu in your body is gone.”

Wei Ting pondered for a moment and asked, “Can the Gu be transferred to someone else?”

“Huh?” Sikong Yun was stunned.

Wei Ting frowned and said, “Xiaoxiao has had all the symptoms you mentioned just now.”

Su Xiaoxiao blinked. That was right. After the wedding, she was abnormally tired and couldn’t wake up. She thought that she was exhausted on her wedding night—

Sikong Yun said thoughtfully, “Such a situation rarely happened before, unless her physique is special and she’s extremely popular with Gu worms.”

Qin Canglan was furious. “Then why aren’t you checking my granddaughter!”

Sikong Yun handed the metal box to Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao opened the box and even nudged the little worm inside. The little worm did not react.

This meant that she did not have any Gu in her body.

Sikong Yun was confused. “Is there a problem with the Gu given by Northern

Yan? Or did I not succeed?”

Su Xiaoxiao recalled carefully. She had indeed experienced the symptoms Sikong Yun mentioned. Excluding the factor of overexertion, she should have been poisoned.

She thought about it again. She seemed to have entered the pharmacy two days ago.

Gu was both poisonous and alive. These two things could not be brought into the pharmacy.

The pharmacy forcefully “threw” the Gu out of her body. Once the Gu left the host, it would die in a few breaths unless it entered a special vessel.

The latter point was mentioned in the writings of the poison master of the Western Jin.

Sikong Yun said earnestly, “This is the first time I’ve poisoned someone. I’m not familiar with it, so it’s unknown if I did it wrong. This time, a skilled Gu Master came to Northern Yan. He probably didn’t show his face and only hid in the dark. Be careful. If he poisoned you, he definitely won’t fail! ”

“Gu can kill and be invisible. Even the sacrificial soldiers of the Western Jin won’t easily provoke Gu Masters. I advise you to go as far as you can when you encounter the Gu Master. Don’t let him get close!”

After leaving the Protector Duke’s Estate, the two of them sat in the carriage back.

Wei Ting was very silent.

Su Xiaoxiao moved closer to him and handed him her hand. “For you.” Wei Ting asked strangely, “What are you doing?”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, “I saw that you were sad, so I’m lending it to you.”

Wei Ting paused. “Didn’t you say that your hands were sore last time?”

Su Xiaoxiao instantly exploded. “I’m lending you my hand! What are you thinking?! ”

Wei Ting chuckled. “Isn’t your reaction the same as mine?”

“I…” Su Xiaoxiao blinked. After all, she had seen poker movies. She knew this kind of thing instantly, okay?

“I’m not sad,” Wei Ting said.

The topic changed so quickly… Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Then why haven’t you said anything?”

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes and said, “I’m wondering if Sikong Yun’s words are true.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him. “Is it related to Helian Ye?”

“Yes.” Wei Ting nodded.

Su Xiaoxiao recalled, “Sikong Yun probably didn’t lie about what he said today, but it’s not certain if the information he received is wrong.”

What if Grandmaster Hui Jue lied to Sikong Yun?

Wei Ting said seriously, “There are long rumors in Northern Yan that Helian Ye is not the biological son of the Helian family’s head, but an illegitimate son brought back from outside. Helian Ye lived a very miserable life when he was young. Even the servants in the residence could bully him. It was not until the Helian family’s head discovered his martial arts talent that he carefully nurtured him.”

“Who’s older, him or your father?”

“Him,” Wei Ting added. “A month older.”

Know yourself and know your enemy and you will win every battle. Helian Ye killed his grandfather and murdered his father and brother. He had investigated Helian Ye’s background clearly, and did not even let go of his birth characters.

If this was true, Helian Ye was the eldest son of Lord Wu An, but Lord Wu An did not want him. Grandmaster Hui Jue was “forced” to send him away… After Imowing the truth, he decided to come back and take revenge on the Wei family.

This could explain Helian Ye’s hostility toward the Wei family.

With this thought in mind, Su Xiaoxiao said to Wei Ting, “Actually, to know if he’s your grandfather’s biological son, you can find out after testing..”
