Chapter 1276: Chapter 1276: Why Don’t You Quite Believe It?

""

"I’m called Zhen Wu, you can call me Uncle Wu, and you, what’s your name?" he asked again.

Unable to elicit any other information, he should at least be able to get a name, right?

"My name is Yin Baiqing."

...

"My lord, Miss Lin, this is what I found out,"

In the study, Zhen Wu recounted to the two what he had learned.

Upon hearing his words, Sui Zimo only exchanged a glance with Lin Caisang. The indifferent expression in their eyes said everything, this was all within his expectations.

"The audacity of Prince Yi’s Mansion is truly astonishing!" Lin Caisang couldn’t help but remark.

If Yin Baiqing was not the Fifth Young Master from Prince Yi’s Mansion, then his identity was easy to guess. Who could be connected to Princess Consort Yi, the woman from the Illusion Continent, if not someone also from the Illusion Continent?

"Brother Molian, it seems that Princess Consort Yi and the people of Illusion Continent are still in touch," she speculated.

Though it was speculation, she was even clearer in her heart that this was the truth.

"Mm."

Sui Zimo nodded.

It seemed that Princess Consort Yi must be the one who followed the emperor’s wishes and stayed behind to covertly watch over him, right?

And when the emperor had ordered Prince Yi to cast him out, it was also Princess Consort Yi who had secretly instructed Prince Yi to send him to Yejun, and then covertly observed him for a month to ensure he could settle down in Ya Village before leaving.

Thus, this so-called favor was not a favor at all.

"You may withdraw."

He looked at Zhen Wu and ordered.

"This subordinate will take his leave."

Zhen Wu exited the room.

"The waters of Prince Yi’s Mansion run deeper than the imperial palace," said Lin Caisang.

From the true identity of Yin Baiqing, the one in charge of Prince Yi’s Mansion must be Princess Consort Yi, right?

And Prince Yi must have been assimilated by Princess Consort Yi, or perhaps been enticed by benefits, and now is indistinguishable from the people of Illusion Continent.

"But what I don’t understand is, why did the emperor try to poison Princess Consort Yi?" she asked.

"He doesn’t know the true identity of Princess Consort Yi," Sui Zimo said.

This was the only explanation that made sense as to why the emperor would want to silence Princess Consort Yi.

The emperor must have thought that Princess Consort Yi was that weak woman forced to marry Prince Yi with no ability to retaliate at all.

Now that he was back, in order to prevent him from uncovering his own secret identity, the emperor could only eliminate those who knew this secret, and Princess Consort Yi was the one who knew his secret and could potentially betray the emperor at any moment.

"Brother Molian, do you think that Princess Consort Yi really has no ability to cultivate? I find it hard to believe," Lin Caisang voiced her doubt.

"Hard to believe?"

Sui Zimo let out a light chuckle, finding that his Sang’er’s way of speaking was becoming more and more humorous.

It’s not a matter of finding it hard to believe, it’s simply unbelievable!

"Apart from the secret of my birth, not a single word should be taken as truth!" he declared.

"Mm-hmm."

Lin Caisang strongly agreed with this point.

Ever since her arrival here, aside from her Brother Molian, she really couldn’t trust anyone’s words, especially not those of Princess Consort Yi...

"She must have the ability to cure her own poisoning, and yet she lives on as if she’s half-dead. She really is something!" she sighed.

"Heh."

Sui Zimo laughed softly.

"Zhe Jue has already turned away many people who came seeking medical treatment, amongst whom, there are those who deliberately poisoned themselves just to get you to visit their residences for treatment," he explained.

"So she really did come for me," Lin Caisang realized.
