“Have you eaten?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Wei Ting sat down beside her. “I ate a little and am a little hungry.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Perfect. Let’s eat together.”
There was a big bowl of red date silver ear soup stew in the kitchen, and Su Xiaoxiao scooped a bowl for him.
“Speaking of which, why did you go for so long? Have you been talking to His Majesty in the Imperial Study?”
Wei Ting took the silver fungus soup. “No, I went to the Ministry of War to hand it over and wrote a few docunts. It has to be done in detail.”
Wei Ting had yet to eat. He glanced at her and picked out all the dates in his bowl. Then, he gave her his bowl.
This guy was quite considerate.
Su Xiaoxiao took another bite. It was sweet and she liked it very much.
“How has Dad been recently?” Wei Ting was also very concerned about Su Cheng.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Not bad. Granduncle, Grandaunt, and the others are fine.”
“I should be able to finish my work in the next few days. I’ll accompany you back then. ”
“Yes.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Ah, right, did you ntion the matter of going to the southern border to His Majesty?”
Wei Ting said, “I checked with him and said that Zhuge Qing is still missing a dicine. He said that my injuries have yet to recover and it’s inconvenient. He will send soone else to find the herb and let recuperate in the capital in peace. ”
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Looks like you made a great contribution at the border this ti and touched the Leng family, making him feel that you’re getting more and more uncontrollable. He’s afraid that your contribution will overshadow him, and he’s also afraid that you’ll have treasonous thoughts.
He’ll only be at ease if he keeps you under his nose.”
Wei Ting scooped a spoonful of silver fungus soup. “Hmph, he wishes.”
Su Xiaoxiao also felt that Emperor Jing Xuan was a little unwise this ti. Wei Ting looked obedient, but he was actually rebellious. Emperor Jing Xuan thought that he could control Wei Ting as the Son of Heaven, but little did he know that Wei Ting would one day be voluptuous.
Su Xiaoxiao fell asleep as she ate. Wei Ting carried her to the bed and covered her with the blanket. He stuffed the three brats who had kicked off the blankets back into their small blankets.
After doing this, he went to the courtyard of the second branch and knocked on the door of Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law. “Second Brother, are you asleep?”
Wei Qing said softly, “I’m not asleep. Wait for in the study.”
“Are you sure you want to do this?”
In the study, Wei Qing sat in a wheelchair and looked at his younger brother with a calm expression.
The little troublemaker, who had always been mischievous and needed his elder brothers to pick up after him, had finally grown up and beco an indomitable man, holding up the Wei family.
“Yes, Second Brother. I’ve decided,” Wei Ting said word by word.
Wei Qing nodded. “That’s good. The days of hiding should be over. The Wei family should live openly.”
They had been waiting for an opportunity. Now was the right ti.
Wei Qing looked at him with a smile. “Go. I support you. If there’s risk. I’ll bear it with you.”
Wei Ting was injured at the border. Emperor Jing Xuan exempted him from attending the court, but the next morning, Wei Ting still went resolutely.
He was not wearing the official robe of the imperial court, but an armor that had experienced killing on the battlefield. He was holding another armor in his arms.
Many officials recognized it.
“Isn’t that General Wei Xu’s armor?”
“That’s right. It was said to have been lost back then.”
“General Wei Xu was killed by Helian Ye and his corpse was dumped. We didn’t even find a piece of armor. What’s going on?”
The civil and military officials whispered
Xiao Duye could not take it anymore and rested in his residence. He did not co to court today, but Xiao Shunyang and Xiao Zhonghua were both there.
The two princes looked at Wei Xu’s armor and did not speak for a mont.
The most shocked person was Emperor Jing Xuan. He sat on the high dragon throne and looked down at the entire imperial court. He was the emperor, but the mont Wei Ting walked towards him with Wei Xu’s armor, he felt that Wei Xu was walking towards him.
If there was anyone in the entire Wei family that the Emperor feared the most, it would be Wei Xu.
Wei Xu had surpassed his master. His martial arts attainnt was even higher than that of Lord Wu An. If he had not been sched against by a traitor, how would Helian Ye have a chance?
Most importantly, he was in his pri at that ti. He was too powerful and terrifying.
Wei Ting stopped with the golden armor in his arms. A murderous aura filled the entire throne room, and the hall was instantly silent. Seeing the armor was like seeing Wei Xu return.
Everyone held their breaths.
The imperial court looked at the armor with more fear than they did at him, the emperor. Emperor Jing Xuan felt a little upset.
You’re not so afraid of Qin Canglan, right? He’s just Wei Xu!
It was not that everyone was not afraid of Qin Canglan, but that Qin Canglan’s style of doing things was more predictable. If they were careful, they would not provoke him. As for Wei Xu…
Everyone could not help but rember the night of the rebellion when the late emperor was in power.
He guarded the throne room alone. By the ti the reinforcents arrived, he was already covered in blood.
The battle was over, and the ground was filled with the heads and corpses of the rebels.
He carried the fed blood sword and his entire body dripped. It was unknown if it was the blood was his or the rebel’s .
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky. He stood expressionlessly in the bloody night.
Anyone who had seen that scene would never forget it.
Emperor Jing Xuan looked at the armor facing him and had the illusion that he was being stared at by Wei Xu. This feeling made him uncomfortable. He frowned and said, “Wei Ting, what’s going on?”
Wei Ting said seriously, “Your Majesty, this is my father’s armor.” The ministers were shocked.
The Minister of Revenue said, “Is it really General Wei Xu’s armor? Didn’t
General Wei Xu die without a corpse? Did you find General Wei Xu’s body?”
Wei Ting said to him, “I didn’t find my father’s body because my father might not be dead.”
As soon as these words were spoken, it caused a storm in the throne room.
What did Wei Ting say?
Wei Xu was not dead?
Although it was only a possibility, this was too shocking!
Xiao Zhonghua was the only one who knew in advance. He had gone to see Jing Yi. Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting did not tell Xiao Duye about Wei Xu, but they did not hide it from Jing Yi.
However, Jing Yi did not say that Wei Xu might still be alive.
The young brat was helping outsiders even more.
Xiao Shunyang glanced at him and said calmly, ‘Why? Third Brother doesn’t know either? Jing Yi must know since he was traveling with them. Didn’t he even tell Third Brother this? Third Brother, you have to be careful. Don’t let your cousin be kidnapped.”
Xiao Zhonghua smiled and said, “Second Brother doesn’t have to worry.”
Wei Ting looked at Emperor Jing Xuan on the dragon throne. He was clearly looking up, but he was neither humble nor arrogant.
He said, “Before Helian Ye died, he unintentionally revealed my father’s whereabouts. It turned out that my father had escaped from him back then. However, he was seriously injured and was captured by soone else. I found my father’s armor and confird that Helian Ye was not lying.”
As he spoke, he took a step back and knelt on one knee with his father’s armor.. “I request to go south to find my father!”
