GB: Bai Yueguang is a villain again.

Hua Baiyu paused.

"What child?"

Su Mo smiled and said, "At this point, the Prime Minister is the one who is insincere."

She pointed at the table and motioned Hua Baiyu to sit down.

"Who is the father of that child? How did the Prime Minister have an affair with the nobles of Tianqi during the years that the king was at the frontier?"

"Stop talking nonsense, you bastard!"

Hua Baiyu could no longer restrain himself and slammed his palm on the table.

The tea in the teacup splashed onto the table because of her, and some of it even stained Su Mo's sleeves.

She was still smiling, but there was a hint of irony in her expression.

"Treason is punishable by the death of all nine generations of your clan, Prime Minister."

"The child is still so young. His father is dead. What if his mother is also gone? What should we do?" Su Mo's voice was dim, his brows raised, and he looked like a wicked person.

"No matter what the result is, it's not what you want to see."

Hua Baiyu clenched his hands tightly, his nails digging into his flesh.

"I have not colluded with the enemy or betrayed my country."

Su Mo suddenly laughed out loud, as if he had heard a joke.

"How can the Prime Minister be so naive? Rumors can be devastating. If the truth is revealed, what can you do?"

She took Hua Baiyu's hand and said, "Now that I've come to see the Prime Minister, it's naturally because I want to help you."

Hua Baiyu broke free in disgust, "What you want is nothing more than the evidence I have on you. If your true identity is slandered, I won't let you off easily."

Her words were well within Su Mo's predictions. Rubbing the back of his hand, which had been slapped red by Hua Baiyu, Su Mo asked doubtfully, "But I have a way to have the best of both worlds. Prime Minister, don't you really want to learn about it?"

Hua Baiyu narrowed his eyes, as if considering the truth of what she said.

"If I really wanted to deal with the Prime Minister, why would I waste my breath here?"

Seeing her wavering, Su Mo threw another huge rock into the water.

"As far as I know, there is no witness to the agreement between the Prime Minister and the late Emperor."

"To fulfill the wishes of the dead, I have harmed more living people. The Prime Minister should have a clear understanding of what is more serious."

“…high treason.”

Hua Baiyu has calmed down.

Although she was shocked at how Su Mo knew the agreement between the late emperor and her.

But as she said, why sacrifice yourself to achieve something that has no proof?

She has already reached the highest position in the country and has no greater ambitions. There is really no need for her to fight to the death with Su Moyu.

"What do you want?" She looked at Su Mo's face, feeling mixed emotions.

I remember that she used to be a general. Military generals are not good at intrigue and playing power games, but this person is an exception.

In time, this child will become a great man.

Whether treacherous or virtuous, she will always have a place in the world.

Su Mo dipped his finger in the tea that had just spilled and wrote two words on the table.

The world.

When Hua Baiyu saw those two words, his pupils shrank slightly and he laughed out loud.

"madman."

She was wrong. How could someone with such means want to be inferior to others?

This is more like her.

"If it's this thing, I can't give it to you." After Hua Baiyu had laughed enough, she said to Su Mo.

"Your Excellency, there is no need for you to do anything. I only want the imperial edict in your hand."

The curve of Su Mo's mouth also showed some sincerity.

"And the Prime Minister made a promise."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll regret yours just as I did the previous emperor's agreement?"

"A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand gold. I believe the Prime Minister will not do that."

Hua Baiyu snorted coldly, agreeing to her request.

"I'll send you the imperial edict another day."

"Thank you, Prime Minister."

Seeing that she had no other questions, Hua Baiyu was a little confused, "That's all?"

"No more." Su Mo replied.

"You also know the life-saving method that the late emperor gave to the Sixth Princess?"

"Understood."

Her answer was so straightforward that Hua Baiyu didn't feel any sense of accomplishment.

"How did you know?"

"Guess."

Hua Baiyu didn't want to pay attention to her anymore, but to be on the safe side, she told Su Mo everything she knew.

"The late emperor found three insurances for the Sixth Princess. The most obvious one is you, followed by me, and finally the Grand Tutor."

"The most important royal secret guards are kept by the Grand Tutor. There are probably a thousand of them, and one can be worth ten. You must be careful."

She was so frank that Su Mo was a little surprised.

"I'm not a petty person. If you fail, I won't gain anything either. We're just on the same boat."

Hua Baiyu's words gave Su Mo more detailed information.

She bowed to Hua Baiyu and thanked him, "Thank you, Prime Minister. I will keep my mouth shut like you did."

At this time she still threatened herself.

Not wanting to be in the same space with this person at all, the Prime Minister waved his hand and said, "Then I wish the Regent good luck in military affairs."

"Hua will take his leave first."

"Prime Minister, walk slowly."

Su Mo sat where he was, looking at Hua Baiyu's back without any reluctance, and laughed a little.

She had gained a lot today and she was in a good mood and took another sip of tea.

Delicious.

Now everything is finally connected.

The late emperor probably used all his life's planning just to pave the way for the Sixth Princess.

Use her as a stake to protect the Sixth Princess and attract fire.

The Prime Minister serves as a secret check on him, while the Grand Tutor controls the largest military force in the capital.

If she guessed correctly, the content of the imperial edict was the decree of succession to the Sixth Princess.

In the end, it must be her who is behind the scenes.

The ending of her and Lin Jia is obvious.

The victors make the kings and the losers take the blame; history is written by the victors.

All the conspiracies and plots in the world are nothing but a lack of information.

The message that Yilale conveyed to her at the palace banquet was the key.

Lin Jia finally got a clue about the secret guard's token that she had been looking for. She guessed that it was probably in the hands of the Grand Tutor, who was preparing to visit her after the New Year.

Thinking of this, Su Mo also stood up and left the teahouse.

It is still unknown who will win.

……

The Grand Tutor had retired to the mountains during the reign of the previous emperor and no longer interfered in the affairs of the court.

The late emperor must have asked her for help as a student at that time.

As his last student, the Grand Tutor still cared about her to some extent and agreed to her request.

Besides, the late emperor did not ask for much, he just wanted to protect the token.

Su Mo had never met the Grand Tutor and had no idea what her personality was like.

But it is no secret in the capital that the Grand Tutor likes Go.

With a nervous mood, Su Mo knocked on the door of the Grand Tutor's Mansion with a gift.

After a while, an old woman opened the door and welcomed her in.

The green pines in the courtyard are tall and majestic like a canopy. The yard is not big, but the owner's character is revealed everywhere.

"My dear lady, we are here." The old woman brought her to the door of the study, where the Grand Tutor was waiting for her.

Su Mo nodded in gratitude, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." She returned the greeting and went back to do her own thing.

It seemed that there were only her and the Grand Tutor in the mansion, but everything was kept in perfect order.

The Grand Tutor was probably not used to being served by others, so he did everything himself.

"Junior Su Mo, I am sorry to bother the Grand Master."

"Come in and talk." A calm and gentle voice came from inside the house, calling Su Mo in.
