Chapter 48

~5 min read 882 words

Being exposed by Su Xuan.

Lady Mingzhu's face changed slightly.

She actually found Ji Ji Wuye annoying too.

Staying in the mansion all day, greedy for pleasure, doing nothing, only knowing how to cause trouble for others.

At the beginning, out of so-called desire for control, he asked her to spy on Su Xuan's reality. As a result, Su Xuan's reality wasn't spied out, but her own reality was spied out by Su Xuan, and then she was poisoned by Su Xuan and had to be controlled by Su Xuan.

The most critical thing was that Lady Mingzhu couldn't tell Ji Wuye about such things.

For the tasks assigned by Ji Ji Wuye, she could only respond to Ji Ji Wuye with words like "doing it, doing it."

Even, to prevent Ji Ji Wuye from seeing any flaws, she tried every means to steal a few elixirs Su Xuan refined for the Han Wang and gave them to Ji Ji Wuye to show that she was really doing things in the palace.

As a result, she didn't expect that before she waited for her cousin to return and detoxify her.

Ji Ji Wuye caused new trouble.

Ji Ji Wuye took a fancy to the military pay sent to the border army and created a ghost soldier hijacking case.

As a result, the Han Wang, in a panic, found Su Xuan. Su Xuan used the talk of ghosts to directly abolish Emerald Tiger. Although the one hundred thousand taels of gold went into Ji Ji Wuye's pocket, Emerald Tiger was abolished, and his assets were all confiscated by the state. The loss Ji Ji Wuye suffered far exceeded one hundred thousand taels of gold.

Afterwards, Ji Ji Wuye not only didn't reflect that this trouble was caused by himself.

Instead, he thought Su Xuan ruined his good deeds, so he developed killing intent toward Su Xuan.

He even sent someone to tell her to kill Su Xuan in the palace.

How to kill?

If she could kill Su Xuan, she would have done it long ago.

Why wait until now?

Ji Wuye's order put Lady Mingzhu in a dilemma. She really didn't know how her cousin Bai Yifei took a fancy to someone like Ji Wuye and was willing to work for him.

Because her cousin chose to work for Ji Ji Wuye, she could only work for Ji Ji Wuye.

Because she didn't know how to complete Ji Wuye's order, and Ji Wuye was waiting for her to send back good news, in the end, the frustrated Lady Mingzhu decided to see Su Xuan first.

"Your words are groundless. I just heard that you helped His Majesty solve the ghost soldier hijacking case, so I wanted to see you. Why do you slander me as Ji Ji Wuye's person, and also want to kill you!"

Lady Mingzhu said to Su Xuan after her thoughts flickered, her words filled with resentment.

Although earlier, Su Xuan revealed many of her realities, such as her illusion, he had never mentioned Ji Wuye in front of her. Lady Mingzhu guessed that this was probably because Su Xuan didn't know she was Ji Wuye's person.

This was not strange.

The Four Fierce Generals of the Night Curtain, the Blood-Clad Marquis and Emerald Tiger, many people knew, and understood they were Ji Ji Wuye's people.

People have heard of the words of the guest in the straw raincoat, but he is extremely mysterious, and no one has ever seen him.

Another mysterious one was her.

She hid in the deep palace, influencing the Han Wang with a method of spring breeze and rain, moistening things silently. Because she hadn't shown her presence in front of people, few people knew who the "Tide Enchantress" was, at most knowing that there was such a person among the Four Fierce Generals of the Night Curtain.

"Lady, don't pretend, your killing intent cannot be hidden!" Su Xuan showed a helpless expression. "Besides, I know your background better than you!"

"So don't be in a hurry to draw a line with Ji Ji Wuye!"

"Oh?" Lady Mingzhu was surprised. "You say you know my background very well, then I want to hear it."

She wanted to know if Su Xuan really knew her background or was deliberately using words to trick her.

Su Xuan didn't play mystery and said it directly: "You are the Tide Enchantress among the Four Fierce Generals of the Night Curtain. The head of the Four Fierce Generals, the Blood-Clad Hou Bai Bai Bai Yifei, is your cousin. Your witchcraft and martial arts were learned from your cousin. He taught you these things, on one hand, because you are his cousin, and on the other hand, to be used in the future, just in case..."

The more Su Xuan said, the uglier Lady Mingzhu's face became.

She didn't expect Su Xuan to really know her background, and know it so detailed.

Although Ji Ji Wuye knew Bai Bai Bai Yifei was her cousin, he didn't know her witchcraft and martial arts were taught by Bai Bai Bai Yifei, but Su Xuan knew.

This meant he knew much more than Ji Ji Wuye.

Looking at Lady Mingzhu's increasingly ugly face, Su Xuan said calmly: "Do you want me to continue?"
