A plum blossom mark near the navel?
He used to seem to have seen similar marks on a woman before, but his impression was not very deep at that ti, so it was a bit blurry
Who exactly was it?
Sun Shaozong searched his mind and asked calmly, "Besides that, what else did Ge Zhan confess?"
"Well..."
Yang Licai hesitated for a mont and quickly said, "He also said that the theory of eighteen years is just spreading false information. Before taking office as the leader of the White Lotus Sect and committing suicide, he only said that there would be a saint reincarnated in the Capital more than ten years later, leading the revival of the White Lotus Sect. However, he did not specify that it is eighteen years."
"It is precisely because of this that many people in the White Lotus Sect believed that the Holy Maiden had reincarnated after learning of the weird phenonon in the Capital, which forced the current sect leader to send Ge Zhan to visit the Capital to inquire."
"I see."
Sun Shaozong nodded suddenly, but in fact, he didn't pay much attention to these details. He tossed and turned in his heart, wondering who she was and who he had seen the plum blossom birthmark on.
She was definitely not a woman he had slept with before; otherwise, he would definitely rember this prominent birthmark firmly.
As for those who haven't slept before but have seen their lower abdon, it seed that there were quite a few…
The little concubines in his Big Brother's house who often go into battle?
All kinds of won in Prince Zhongshun's Mansion?
A warm-footed maid from Ningguo Mansion?
Jinchuan of Rongguo Mansion?
Wang Xifeng?
Miaoyu?
Miaoyu!
It was her!
At the house arrest, as soon as she lifted her innerwear, he stopped her, but it was at that mont that he seed to have seen a plum blossom-shaped birthmark.
Was he saying that she was the reincarnated saint of the White Lotus Sect?
But she was not a native of the Capital, but from Jiangnan
Wait!
Following this train of thought, Miaoyu's background was sowhat mysterious.
It was rumored that her family was also a family of officials. Even if they sent their daughter to a nunnery to recuperate, they shouldn't just ignore it, should they?
Besides, they allowed the old nun to travel a thousand miles to the Capital, talked nonsense about so kind of fate theory, and left her here!
If it were a daughter from a poor family or a family that prioritizes sons over daughters, it would be fine. However, it was said that when she was young, her family once spent a lot of money seeking dical treatnt.
This was illogical!
If there were no such thing as the Holy Saint of the White Lotus Sect, it could be considered a coincidence. However, if Miaoyu was truly the reincarnated Holy Saint of the White Lotus Sect, then her so-called parents and masters were quite suspicious.
Moreover, considering the age of Miaoyu, it seed that she was born in the year of the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect, and the fact that the leader of the White Lotus Sect set himself on fire occurred in the winter of that year.
That was to say, she was likely born before the death of the leader of the White Lotus Sect
After learning that the White Lotus Sect distinguished reincarnated saints based on their physical characteristics, Sun Shaozong once conjectured that this “reincarnated saint” was likely a clue to follow!
That was to say, the forr sect leader, after knowing certain information in advance, pretended to be a god and made a prophecy to continue to influence the future direction of the White Lotus Sect.
Now, embedding Miaoyu's background, as well as her unshaven identity in Buddhism, could be said to be perfectly matched!
Sun Shaozong even had so doubts that Miaoyu was the illegitimate daughter of the forr sect leader!
Otherwise, why would the other party have to go through so much trouble and co up with a prophecy that lasts for over a decade?
"Your Excellency."
As his thoughts diverged, he heard Yang Licai say again, "Besides, we have also captured a few White Lotus Sect spies who fled in a hurry with the trap we set up in the inner and outer cities. However, the bigoted woman has always had a one-sided contact with the other, so we were unable to follow the clues and find the other spies."
"Also, the list of officials whose wives are pregnant at ho has been added. May I ask if you want to take a look?"
Tch!
This was not good news. The more suspects there were, the greater the amount of investigation, especially since they were all high-ranking officials appointed by the court.
Fortunately, he was about to embark on an expedition, so there was no need to worry about these things anymore.
Wait!
Yang Licai naturally knew this, but why did he take the initiative to show himself the list of additions?
With suspicion in his heart, he first set aside the matter of Miaoyu and said seriously, "I don't need to look at the list anymore. Do you still have so other matters to attend to?"
"This..."
Yang Licai hesitated for a mont before seeing Sun Shaozong casually go to the teacup. He quickly arched his hand and said, "My Lord, how do you think we should proceed next?"
How should he proceed next?
It seed that Yang Licai was also not very optimistic about Lu Hui's future. Otherwise, he just needed to wait and seek Lu Hui's advice; why rush to ask himself?
Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong had the intention to probe a few words to see if Yang Licai had any insider information.
But Sun Shaozong eventually held back.
This kind of thing could only be understood, but not expressed in words. If it needed to be announced, it might not necessarily benefit both parties.
So Sun Shaozong just said, "It's up to the upper authorities to decide how to operate next. After all, I'm leaving the Capital soon, so it's really hard to continue to intervene in this case."
In fact, this was also a test, but it was just not as thorough as a test.
As soon as Yang Licai heard these words, he imdiately felt a bit discouraged and stamred, "Hmm... I'll take my leave first."
He indeed had great doubts about whether Lu Hui could continue to serve as the Pacifier of the Northern Detective Departnt.
But just now, he took the initiative to show his goodwill; it wasn’t like he wanted to be transferred and completely dedicate himself under his command, after all, he was about to leave the Capital.
In this way…
As Yang Licai turned around and was about to leave, Sun Shaozong suddenly said, "If Pacifier Lu cannot return for a while, I will recomnd it to His Majesty or Commander Dai, and you will continue to be responsible for investigating this case."
Yang Licai's hesitation was probably because he was afraid that soone else would replace him after working hard.
In fact, Sun Shaozong should not have cared about him; after all, when the White Lotus Sect was arrested last ti, this guy clearly had an intention to monitor himself.
However, as he was about to leave the Capital, Sun Shaozong could not completely suppress him. It would be better to offer him a favor and be on good terms for the future.
As expected, Yang Licai's darkened expression imdiately lit up upon hearing these words. He then kowtowed his head to the ground and exclaid with joy, "Thank you very much, Your Excellency, for the promotion."
No wonder he had forgotten himself.
Although the case of the White Lotus Sect was led by Lu Hui, it could be said that it was still the credit of Sun Shaozong. With his kind words, even if the authorities refused to adopt them, they would inevitably notice the na Yang Licai.
In this way, there was no fear of being underestimated by others.
After thanking him repeatedly, Yang Licai wisely bid farewell and left.
So Sun Shaozong fell back into his previous speculation.
Because it was only a fleeting glance at the beginning, and it has been a long ti since then, he couldn’t be 100% certain whether there was a plum blossom birthmark on Miaoyu's lower abdon.
And this matter was really difficult to confirm; otherwise, after determining that Miaoyu was the White Lotus Saint, would he report and expose or hide it for her?
If he were to expose it…
Determining one's life and death just for the sake of the birthmark…
Besides, although this fake nun was a bit naive, she still had a compassionate heart. Although Sun Shaozong didn't like her aloof personality, harming her life…
But if not reported…
Once the situation was exposed afterward, he would be the person who kept in and committed the cri of hiding for the White Sect rebels.
So the best way was to pretend not to be aware. Anyway, that day she just lifted her innerwear, and he called for a stop in ti, and it was understandable that he didn't see it clearly.
However…
This ostrich-like approach was not a long-term solution.
Not to forget, Miaoyu still has her parents and a master. If this were a sche set by the White Lotus Sect Leader, then the three of them must also be insiders, and maybe at so point, this matter would explode!
After much thought, there was no foolproof solution to this matter.
Sun Shaozong had no choice but to hold it to the bottom of his heart, put on the complete set of the Swallowing Cloud Robe, and rushed to the Palace.
