”If you can't ride a horse, you should be able to shoot with a good aim.”
”Yes.” Mo Lianjin paused for a moment, then suddenly took out something, and threw it at Su Li, ”This was found on the body of the assassin who tried to assassinate the Bei Yue diplomatic mission.”
Su Li looked at the order badge in his hand. It was the exact same size as Song Lai, the same Jun Zi Lan. The only difference was that Song Lai's order badge had the word ”Human” carved on it, and on this piece, the word ”Earth” was carved onto it.
They should be from the same organization, only with different levels.
The purpose of the organization's assassination of the Bei Yue diplomatic mission was self-evident.
They wanted to instigate the Bei Yue to become enemies with the two countries, just like how they instigated murder, all because they wanted to destroy the Southern Spirit Kingdom!
Su Li explained the results of the investigation in detail.
When he mentioned that he suspected that someone in the palace had colluded with Bei Yue, Mo Lianjin finally opened his eyes.
”Previously, I suspected that this organization had something to do with Bei Yue, but if they were going to assassinate a Bei Yue diplomatic mission, then there shouldn't be any connections between them.” Su Li gave his opinion.
”Yes.”
”And the lightning from yesterday, someone must have observed the abnormality of yesterday's sky before they buried the metal there. And the people who can watch the sky, in the entire Southern Spirit Kingdom, or even the entire four nations, are only our Imperial Advisors.”
”Him?” Mo Lianjin's voice was low, his eyes squinted with a dangerous glint in them.
”I know you've been investigating him. During the years he was out cleaning, have you found out where he is?”
Mo Lianjin shook his head, then said, ”Eight years ago, he predicted that the mother was pregnant with a demon. After this king returned to the capital, he was hit by a sword which was extremely dangerous.
In Su Li's mind, the image of the State Grandmaster's face appeared.
”I just can't believe that the State Grandmaster is the same age as the Emperor An.”
Mo Lianjin was silent for a moment. The day that the State Grandmaster returned to the capital, he brought people to surround him. It was to kidnap the State Grandmaster to interrogate him about what happened eight years ago.
Upon seeing the Imperial Advisor's face, he was stunned. That was the reason why he had been careless and was poisoned by the Moonworshipping Poison that the Imperial Advisor had given him.
”Do you have any way of detecting his true age?” Mo Lianjin asked.
Su Li remembered that after he saw the State Grandmaster for the first time, Mo Lianjin asked her this question.
She shook her head. ”I can't check the age of a living person with my naked eye, unless he's dead. I can check the age based on his bones.”
”If he dies, everything This King has done will be meaningless.”
Su Li understood what he meant. Back then, his mother died because of a declaration by the State Grandmaster.
He wanted to return justice to his mother. Until then, the Imperial Advisor could not die!
”Is it possible that the Imperial Advisor did not live long after you stabbed him with that sword, so he lied about being a cultivator from the capital? In fact, something happened after he left the capital. The current Imperial Advisor is no longer the Imperial Advisor from back then?”
After Mo Lianjin heard this, he was stunned.
Su Li continued, ”The State Grandmaster has left the capital for eight years, so there are many possibilities for him to appear during those eight years. What I don't understand is what kind of role the Emperor An has played in this place.”
In order for the Emperor An to protect his Divine Right, he couldn't let the State Grandmaster lose face. He would definitely think of a way to let the face of the State Grandmaster continue to be like that.
It's just that, why would the people that the Emperor An had found colluded with the Bei Yue?
”If this teacher is not the same as the other one, then it's very likely that he has colluded with Bei Yue.” Mo Lianjin frowned.
Su Li thought about it, and that made sense, after all, the people who had come to find him were not his own people, they were impossible to guard against.
”What about you? ”Do you believe my hypothesis?”
