“This… isn’t good, right? If I’m discovered, I can avoid punishment since I’m the Saintess and a child. You’ll be in trouble.”
Seeing Yin Xiaodie weigh the pros and cons, Su Xiaoxiao’s heart warmed.
The little one was not worried that Su Xiaoxiao would implicate her, but that Su Xiaoxiao would be discovered and punished.
She felt more and more that letting her become the Saintess was the right choice.
“Don’t worry, I won’t expose myself.”
She would not fool around when it came to the little one and her life. She only suggested doing this because she was completely confident.
“In this case, you don’t have to make a decision now. Go back and discuss it with your grandfather first. If he thinks it’s feasible, bring me into the palace.”
This was not fooling a child.
Yin Xiaodie thought it was feasible.
She bade farewell to Su Xiaoxiao and returned to the Yin family.
Old Master Yin and Yin Chongshan were both there.
The three of them discussed this matter in the study.
Yin Chongshan was a little worried. “I’m afraid that’s not appropriate…”
Old Master Yin was very straightforward. “I believe in Miss Cheng’s character and her ability. Xiaodie, bring her to the palace.”
Yin Xiaodie said, “Okay!”
Yin Chongshan hesitated. “Father, isn’t this too risky?”
Old Master Yin said, “Fortune comes from danger. Saintess Cheng’s achievements are too great. It’s not easy for Xiaodie to completely replace her.
She won’t harm Xiaodie.”
Yin Chongshan could not refute this.
He had seen Cheng Su save Yin Xiaodie with his own eyes. He could distinguish very clearly if she was sincere or hypocritical.
Old Master Yin had no objections. Yin Xiaodie got someone to go to the Cheng family to deliver a message to Su Xiaoxiao and came to pick her up tomorrow morning.
In the afternoon, Wei Ting came to the Cheng family dressed as a coachman.
He was delivering food to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao had recently been craving an old -fashioned osmanthus chicken dish in the capital.
Spring chicken braised with fresh osmanthus was fresh and tender. There was a hint of the sweetness of osmanthus in the salty fragrance. It was greasy and delicious.
It was just that the shop only sold 60 per day, and the people queuing up would test the threshold.
Wei Ting spent a full four hours under the hot sun to buy it.
In the end, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t eat much and gave it all to the three brats and Mei Ji.
Cheng Sang did not like this.
When Wei Ting’s expression darkened, Su Xiaoxiao hooked his slender jade-like finger and said softly, “Alright, alright. I’ll definitely eat it myself next time.”
Wei Ting snorted.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and asked, “By the way, have you contacted the Great Zhou envoy?”
“Didn’t I go to buy the osmanthus chicken?”
At the mention of this, he got angry. After waiting for four hours, she had only taken two bites!
Who exactly did he buy it for?
“I’ll go in a while.” Wei Ting said. “There is no need to go,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
Wei Ting looked at her curiously. “Why?”
“I’ve found a way to enter the palace.”
Su Xiaoxiao told him about Yin Xiaodie’s visit. “If you enter the palace through the envoy, you might not be able to approach the King of the Southern Wilderness. I’m different. If I follow the little one, I can go to his bedroom.”
“It’s too dangerous.”
Wei Ting said without thinking, “You’re not allowed to go.”
He was worried about letting her enter the palace alone.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Is it foolproof for you to enter the palace? Don’t forget that
I’m the daughter of the Cheng family after all. I’m from the Southern Wilderness. If I really expose myself, I can say that I care about His Majesty and want to treat him. What would you say, General Wei of the Great Zhou?”
Before Wei Ting could retort, Su Xiaoxiao said again, “Besides, don’t forget that the Saintess has seen your face. If you expose yourself, aren’t you afraid that she will snatch you back to be her husband?”
Wei Ting looked at her meaningfully. “So you’re worried that I’ll be snatched away by another woman?”
Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “I don’t want to share a man with another woman!”
Wei Ting: “Heh.”
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms. “In short, it’s safer for me to enter the palace than you. It’s settled. If you’re really worried, pretend to be a coachman and meet me outside the palace. If you still don’t agree…” Wei Ting finished for her. “You’ll go yourself, right?”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows in tacit agreement.
The corners of Wei Ting’s mouth twitched.
Forget it.
It was better to follow her than to stop her from going.
Su Xiaoxiao had two goals in entering the palace this time. Firstly, she wanted to investigate the situation of the King of the Southern Wilderness. Secondly, she wanted to investigate the experts who had captured Wei Xu from Broken North Pass five years ago.
That person was very likely someone who knew Wei Xu’s weakness. They had to find him, or there would be endless trouble in the future.
“Does Dad still remember what that person looked like?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Wei Ting shook his head. “Dad was poisoned and injured at that time. He didn’t see it too clearly. He only remembered that that person was wearing a mask and had a ghost mask tattoo on his left forearm. It was a pigeon blood tattoo. It would only appear when he circulates his energy and drinks.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded thoughtfully. “Can you draw it?” Wei Ting thought for a moment. “I’ll try my best.”
Su Xiaoxiao brought a pen, paper, and cinnabar.
According to Wei Xu’s description, Wei Ting dipped it in cinnabar and drew a ghost mask tattoo on his left forearm.
The cinnabar was red.
Wei Ting said, “The tattoo is about this color after it appears but it’s a little darker.”
“Oh, this tattoo is quite special.”
Su Xiaoxiao held his arm and took a closer look, memorizing the location and pattern of the tattoo.
One’s forearm was hidden in his sleeve and would not be easily exposed.
Moreover, one needed to circulate energy or be drunk for the tattoo to appear; this increased the difficulty by another level.
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “We can only try our luck.”
Wei Ting reminded, “The priority is the King of the Southern Wilderness. There’s no need to look for this person specifically.”
He was worried that this person was too dangerous and that she would die if she fought him.
Su Xiaoxiao rested her chin on her hands and looked at him. “Are you so concerned about me? Did you realize that you like me so much that you can’t extricate yourself?”
Wei Ting sized her up and said coldly, “I’m worried about my daughter.” Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him in Mei Ji’s style.
The next day, Su Xiaoxiao took a carriage to a restaurant under the Yin family and met Yin Xiaodie there.
Yin Xiaodie gave her a set of clothes for a disciple of the Holy Maiden Temple and pointed at the female disciple accompanying her. “Her name is Ye Sui. She’s the new disciple selected this time. Disguise yourself as her and enter the palace with me.”
Her height and figure were about the same as Su Xiaoxiao’s. Yin Xiaodie had spent a lot of effort to choose the right person. Even Ye Sui was shocked by Su Xiaoxiao’s disguise.
This was too similar!
Su Xiaoxiao pinched Yin Xiaodie’s cheek. “Do you believe that I won’t expose myself now?”
Yin Xiaodie took her hand. “So-so!”
Su Xiaoxiao muttered, “All the seventh-born children are so stubborn.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Can we use my coachman?”
“If you know the way, it’s fine!” Yin Xiaodie had no objections.
The plan was flawless, and Wei Ting was in place.
However, no one expected them to meet the Third Prince and the Little Princess at the entrance of the restaurant.
The Little Princess knew Yin Xiaodie and immediately asked her to get into her carriage.
Yin Xiaodie couldn’t refuse her kindness and could only sit down with Su Xiaoxiao.
Wei Ting could no longer follow for fear he would implicate Su Xiaoxiao if he was discovered.
The effect of Wei Xu’s medicine lasted for three days. It was not until the afternoon that the effect of the medicine faded bit by bit.
He came to the door in a daze and curiously dug a hole in the paper. He stuck one eye to it and secretly looked out.
After Li Wan finished brewing medicine for Wei Qing, she asked, “What’s wrong with Little Seven?”
Wei Qing took the medicine bowl. “Xiaoxiao went to the palace alone. He’s worried. ”
Wei Xu looked at the sky and pondered for a moment.
He suddenly raised his long legs and kicked the entire door!
The door fell to the ground with a bang. Li Wan was shocked!
Before she could react, Wei Xu came to the courtyard and grabbed Wei Ting.. He used his movement technique to run toward the Southern Wilderness palace!
