The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Wei Yao raised her head and met Jiang Suining's gaze.

"Yes, I am helping him, but I just want to save people. Sui Ning, no, sister, you can ignore Mu Shi's life or death and stick to the morality and justice in your heart, but I can't, I can't watch him get into trouble!"

When she said the last sentence, Wei Yao's voice was choked with sobs.

Jiang Suining and Lu Yan both felt heartbroken when they saw this.

"Ayao, I didn't ignore Mu Shi, I just..."

"You just can't give up your principles for this matter." Wei Yao took over Jiang Suining's words, "Of course I believe that Mu Shi is very important in your heart, but he is not more important than your principles and persistence in your heart."

Wei Yao took a deep breath and forced back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes.

"Sui Ning, I respect your choice and I admire your ability to stick to your principles, but I can't do the same as you. Please respect my choice too. I just want to save Mu Shi now. As for the others... I can't care anymore. Even if there are any consequences, I will bear them myself and will never involve others."

Wei Yao clenched her sleeves, walked around Lu Yan beside her, and walked out.

"Ayao!"

Behind her, Lu Yan was still calling her, but Wei Yao did not stop, but quickened her pace to leave.

"Sui Ning, what should we do now?" Lu Yan looked at Jiang Sui Ning worriedly.

She knew that it was reasonable for A Yao to make such a choice, but after Prince Su got those birth data, if he really did something, A Yao would become an accomplice.

The three of them have been helping and relying on each other since they participated in the female official assessment. She really doesn't want to see A Yao make any mistakes.

"Under the current circumstances, if we want to stop A Yao, we have to take direct action, but..."

Jiang Suining paused, a look of conflicted sadness appearing on his face.

"But Yan, if I do this, it would be like me forcefully cutting off my brother's life. I..."

Understanding Jiang Suining's inner struggles and embarrassment, Ah Yan walked up to her and said, "Suining, this is too cruel for you. If your father and mother knew about this, I'm afraid they would blame you."

Sui Ning's decision not to help Prince Su was already extremely difficult. If she were to cut off her own brother's life with her own hands...

No matter who it is, it would probably be difficult to do it.

After thinking for a while, Lu Yan said again: "Sui Ning, let's go into the palace and report the whole story to the emperor. No matter what Prince Su wants to do, as long as this matter is big enough, I think he will restrain himself."

Jiang Suining agreed to Lu Yan's proposal, calmed himself down, and the two of them quickly entered the palace.

In the imperial study, they reported the whole story to Emperor Xiao.

Of course, they did not mention the previous case of the missing woman. After all, there was no evidence yet. If they spoke rashly, they would easily be accused of slandering the royal family.

More importantly, it was Emperor Xiao who urged Pei Zhaozhi to close the case of the Women's Academy. Questioning the outcome of the case without any evidence would be tantamount to slapping Emperor Xiao in the face.

"Do you know why the royal uncle suddenly wants the birth dates of those female students?" Emperor Xiao pondered.

"Your Majesty, we cannot find out for the time being, but since Prince Su has done it in this way, it must be a complicated matter. Also, if it is really related to auspicious signs, Prince Su could have just made it public instead of threatening with poison." Jiang Suining spoke while kneeling on the ground.

Lu Yan knelt beside her, and after Jiang Suining finished speaking, she immediately spoke.

"Your Majesty, I think so too. Although we have no way of knowing what Prince Su is planning to do, and we dare not speculate rashly, for the safety of so many students in the Women's Academy, I hope Your Majesty can conduct a thorough investigation of this matter."

"Okay." Emperor Xiao nodded. "I will send someone to investigate this matter in detail, but before we find out the truth, you must not reveal what you just said. After all, it is just your one-sided statement. You must not let your speculation affect the reputation of the emperor's uncle."

"Yes, your subordinates will remember it." Jiang Suining and Lu Yan responded.

Emperor Xiao said to the eunuch beside him: "Send someone to Prince Su's mansion to tell them that I want to see my uncle."

"Yes." The eunuch accepted the order, but just as he walked out of the imperial study to pass on the order, he turned back.

"Your Majesty, Prince Su has arrived and is outside the Imperial Study."

Jiang Suining and Lu Yan looked at each other.

Soon, Prince Su walked into the imperial study.

He did not look around, not even giving a glance to Jiang Suining and Lu Yan who were kneeling on the ground. He just walked to their side with a smile, and then bowed as usual.

"I have met the emperor."

"Uncle, you're welcome. You've come at the right time. I have something to ask you."

"If I am not mistaken, Your Majesty wants to ask about the birth dates of the female students in the Women's Academy?"

"That's right." Emperor Xiao frowned slightly as he looked at Prince Su, "Why do you want to collect the birth dates of those women?"

"Your Majesty, do you remember that when I just came back, I mentioned something about the Women's Academy?"

Emperor Xiao recalled what Prince Su had said before, and his eyes fell on Jiang Suining and Lu Yan, "You two should withdraw first and wait outside."

Emperor Xiao spoke, and Jiang Suining and Lu Yan could only withdraw temporarily.

After they left, Emperor Xiao spoke up, "I remember that my uncle told me before that there was an evil spirit in the women's academy."

"That's right." Prince Su nodded.

"But the emperor's uncle is refining pills in the women's academy, and the pills he made are very effective. After taking them for a while, I felt refreshed and my body was much stronger than before. Wasn't the so-called evil spirit before just a misunderstanding?"

"Your Majesty, although the elixir was successfully refined, the evil spirit in the girls' academy has not been eliminated. Since I entered the girls' academy, I have been secretly observing and divination. This time, I collected the birth dates of those female students for this purpose."

"Do you mean that the source of the evil spirit is the people in the academy?" asked Emperor Xiao.

Prince Su said calmly: "There is no way to determine it completely now, but it is very possible, so I want to collect their birth dates."

"What if we find out that the evil spirit is caused by humans?"

"Of course it's to get rid of evil spirits." Prince Su's expression became much more serious.

"How to get rid of the evil?" Emperor Xiao asked again.

"I have no way to answer your Majesty for now, but you can rest assured that as long as we can find the source of the evil spirit, there will definitely be a way to eliminate it."

Emperor Xiao's eyes were so deep that it was hard to tell what he was thinking. He just looked at Prince Su and said, "I have another question. Why did you set up a trap and poison the Jiang family?"
