Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After Emperor Jing Xuan finished the court session, he was in no mood to review the memorials, leaving Prime Minister Guo to accompany him for a walk in the garden.

Prime Minister Guo was an elder of three dynasties, Emperor Jing Yan. When the Grand Empress Dowager’s husband was on the throne, he entered the Hanlin Academy as the top scholar. At that time, he was not favored.

It was only after the late emperor inherited the throne from his nephew that he took a fancy to Prime Minister Guo’s talent and promoted him to the cabinet. He went from a small elder to a rising star. First, he became a cabinet scholar, and then he became an official Prime Minister.

It could be said that Prime Minister Guo was the former emperor’s favorite minister and an old minister that Emperor Jing Xuan trusted very much. “Your Majesty has been troubled recently and has lost a lot of weight.”

Emperor Jing Xuan sighed. “It’s unknown if Qin Canglan is dead or alive. I feel a little uneasy.”

Emperor Jing Xuan had complicated feelings for Qin Canglan.

He was afraid of Qin Canglan and wanted to take back the Qin family’s military power, but he did not want anything to happen to Qin Canglan.

As long as Qin Canglan was alive, he would be the sharpest sword in the Great Zhou to intimidate Northern Yan.

He didn’t want to have to use him, but he couldn’t do without him.

Actually, all these years, he had been working hard to nurture a new Divine General. This was once Qin Jiang, but Qin Jiang had actually lost to Su Cheng and could not even maintain his military power.

Jing Yi’s apt.i.tude was not bad, but he was still young and did not come from a

military family. He lacked military merit and military training, so it was inevitable that the soldiers of the three armies were unconvinced.

The few from the Leng family were barely satisfactory…

Wei Ting was the most suitable candidate. He was well-versed in both civil and military matters and had military merits. He was also the grandson of Lord Wu

However, the Wei family was once King Nanyang’s trusted aide. There was always a thorn in his heart.

Prime Minister Guo comforted him. “The old Protector Duke is a good person. He will definitely be safe.”

“Your Majesty! Your Majesty!”

Eunuch Quan jogged over excitedly. “There’s news from the Imperial

Astronomy Center! ”

Emperor Jing Xuan hurriedly said, “Tell me quickly! ”

Eunuch Quan smiled and said, “The old Protector Duke is awake!” Prime Minister Guo’s expression froze.

Emperor Jing Xuan was overjoyed. “Haha! Minister Guo, you’re right!”

Prime Minister Guo closed his eyes. He and his big mouth…

Emperor Jing Xuan said, “Guards! Prepare to go the Imperial Astronomy

Center! Minister Guo, come with me to see Qin Canglan!”

Prime Minister Guo restrained the complicated emotions that flashed across his eyes and cupped his hands. “I obey.”

Physician Fu was the first to discover that Qin Canglan had woken up.

Su Cheng happened to go to the toilet at that time.

Su Cheng was unhappy that he had waited for three days in vain!

Qin Canglan said, “Why don’t… I wake up again?”

Su Cheng thought seriously about it and said, “Sure.”

Everyone was speechless.

Overall, Qin Canglan was too seriously injured. Coupled with the lingering poison in his body, he was very weak.

Physician Fu went to boil medicine for him.

Only the father and son were left in the room.

Su Cheng sat on the stool in front of the bed, not knowing what to say. He was a little helpless.

Qin Canglan smiled weakly. “Cheng’er… did you call me father?”

She thought that Su Cheng would deny it as usual, but unexpectedly, Su Cheng replied in a low voice, “Yes.”

Qin Canglan suddenly became excited. Blood spurted out of his wound. Fortunately, it was wrapped in gauze.

“Can you… call me again? I was unconscious… I couldn’t hear you very well… I thought I was dreaming…”

Su Cheng hesitated for a moment, gathered his emotions, and opened his mouth to call him father.

“His Majesty has arrived…

Su Cheng shut up for a second.

Qin Canglan’s face darkened.

Emperor Jing Xuan did not know that he had disturbed the joy between father and son. He came to the bed in high spirits and looked at Qin Canglan, who had come back to life, with relief.

“I heard that you’re awake, so I specially came to see you.”

Qin Canglan mumbled, “It’s fine if you don’t come.”

Qin Canglan turned to look at his son. Emperor Jing Xuan blocked Su Cheng.

Qin Canglan was speechless.

“Old Protector Duke.” Prime Minister Guo walked forward and sized up Qin Canglan carefully. “How do you feel?”

“It’s not a terminal lucidity. Don’t worry,” Qin Canglan said coldly.

Although he was weak, his aura was not weak.

When Prime Minister Guo heard this, he understood that Qin Canglan had completely come back to life.

A trace of panic flashed across his eyes, and Qin Canglan saw it.

Qin Canglan sneered. “I’m not dead. Prime Minister Guo, you seem very disappointed?”

Prime Minister Guo smiled. “How can that be? I can’t be happier. The Great

Zhou can lose anyone, but not the head of the Qin family.”

Qin Canglan chuckled. “Could it be that it’s fine without His Majesty?” Prime Minister Guo almost lost his composure.

Civil servants and generals liked to bicker to begin with. Moreover, the Guo family and the Wei family were relatives. It was not the first time they could not get along with Qin Canglan.

Emperor Jing Xuan did not take it to heart and said, ‘Minister Qin, who injured you to this extent?”

Prime Minister Guo’s heart tightened.

Qin Canglan said weakly, “I forgot.”

Prime Minister Guo heaved a sigh of relief.

Qin Canglan said, “Oh, I remember again.” Prime Minister Guo trembled!

“Who is it?” Emperor Jing Xuan asked in a low voice.

Qin Canglan glanced at Prime Minister Guo meaningfully and said bluntly,

‘Guo Huan.”

Prime Minister Guo said seriously, “Old Protector Duke, be careful with your words! Why would my grandson hurt you? Do you have evidence?” Qin Canglan said, “The dagger was a gift from Wei Liulang to Guo Huan.”

Evil creature!

How arrogant was he to use his own weapon to kill?

Prime Minister Guo wanted to beat Guo Huan to death. “It’s just a dagger. It’s not surprising to have an identical one.”

Emperor Jing Xuan had a good impression of Guo Huan. If someone else testified against Guo Huan, he might have the same reaction as Prime Minister Guo.

However, the other party was Qin Canglan.

He was a trusted minister who had contributed greatly.

Emperor Jing Xuan frowned and said, “Do you have witnesses?”

“Yes,” Qin Canglan said without changing his expression. “Chief Astronomer.”

Sikong Yun, who had just arrived at the door, staggered!

The old man implicated!

“Yes, I saw him… I wasn’t sure at that time… I only felt that his figure was a little similar to Young Master Guo… Ah, is it really Young Master Guo?” “Why didn’t I stop it? It was too late to stop it.”

“The direction of escape… was towards the Prime Minister’s Estate…”

“Why didn’t I bring him back to the Imperial Astronony Center to save him when I was at the scene? I went back to call for help, but Lord Wei and Miss Su were faster…

As the most powerful quack in the Great Zhou… Uh, no, the Grand Astronomer, Sikong Yun’s lies came as soon as he opened his mouth. His face was not red, and his heart did not beat. He closed the loop perfectly.

Emperor Jing Xuan asked solemnly, “Since you know such an important clue, why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Sikong Yun said innocently, “I told Lord Wei!”

Wei Ting, who had become a scapegoat before he woke up was speechless.

“Where’s Wei Ting?” Emperor Jing Xuan asked with a frown.

Eunuch Fu reported, “He’s lying in the next room and has been unconscious for a few days. Lord Wei was already injured, and that day, he risked his life to protect the Your Majesty and fought with the White Lotus Society. Now, his injuries are even more serious.”

Emperor Jing Xuan originally did not believe it, but when he entered the room and saw that Wei Ting was unconscious and his hands were bandaged like dumplings, he suddenly felt that Wei Ting was really in trouble.

Emperor Jing Xuan could not bear to question Wei Ting anymore and said coldly, “Men! Pa.s.s down my decree to capture Guo Huan!”

Qin Canglan was already weak and had spoken for so long. When Emperor Jing Xuan and the others left, he had already fallen asleep again.

Su Cheng poked his head into the house.

Thinking of the father he had yet to call out, he silently came to the bed and called out in an extremely small voice, “Dad.”

He sat down and raised his voice a little. “Dad.”

He looked back and confirmed that no one was coming. He lay his head beside Qin Canglan in embarra.s.sment.

“Dad…

Qin Canglan smiled weakly. He raised his hand which was covered in scars and marks and patted his head gently. “I heard you, son..”
