Miao Zhizhi said nothing more when she saw Su Binglan’s confident expression. The former knew she only needed to believe in her niece, especially since she knew how capable Su Binglan was.
Although supposedly only the Miao family’s direct descendants could use and remove parasites from people, Su Binglan had learned to do it, too. Even Miao Zhizhi was impressed, thinking she only knew little about her niece’s abilities.
Su Binglan knew more than Miao Zhizhi thought.
Soon after Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an returned home, she told her husband the details about the Miao family before going to bed.
“It seems Tuoba Liuyun has planted his men in many forces,” Luo Jin’an said, “Perhaps he has men in the Imperial Court, too.”
Su Binglan replied, “Fortunately, Ruozhu has become the emperor and made considerable changes to the Imperial Court by replacing many of its members. He replaced them with trustworthy people, regardless of whether they came from the lower class. These people can do good things for the commoners.
“However, there are some I’m wary about. I’ll give a copy of their names to my brother, and he’ll deal with them.”
Su Binglan knew the names of the suspects who had contacted Tuoba Liuyun through Miao Zhizhi. She knew Lan Ruozhu could deal with them as long as he did a little investigation.
Luo Jin’an looked through the name list, saying, “I didn’t expect these people to be related to the former dynasty.”
Su Binglan added, “It’s normal for the previous dynasty to plant their chess pieces.”
Back then, Su Binglan and Lan Ruozhu had also nurtured many spies and planted them in several places. Even so, it was to obtain more information to protect themselves and for critical moments.
Luo Jin’an said, “The former emperor condoned his officials to bully the people and increase taxes. He was selfish and never attended court. People raised complaints everywhere while the loyal officials and righteous generals were tortured to death.
“The ancestors of the former emperor conquered the country because of various reasons. Now, the commoners have long forgotten the Tuoba Dynasty. Even if they did, they would only remember how much the Tuoba Dynasty hurt the commoners.”
The commoners had a terrible impression of the Tuoba Dynasty. There were even records of the dynasty’s misdeeds in both historical books and unofficial history. In the past, everyone had overthrown the Tuoba Dynasty to survive.
Su Binglan’s expression turned cold as she said, “We still don’t know if Jiang Liuyun is Tuoba Liuyun. Perhaps he’s just using that name to usurp the throne.”
Although some wanted to be the emperor, they needed a reason for others to follow them. The descendants of the Tuoba Dynasty were an excellent reason to make many think Tuoba Liuyun was the orthodox and support him.
Unfortunately, he was a terrible person and only depended on parasites to harm others.
Luo Jin’an said, “Things will become much easier if we get rid of Tuoba Liuyun. His forces won’t be able to cause any trouble without a leader.”
Su Binglan nodded. “We’ll stay home for a few more days before heading to the Miao family.”
After discussing these things, the couple were not in a hurry to sleep. Instead, they drew a map of the Miao Tribe according to Miao Zhizhi’s explanation.
“That’s about all Aunt Zhizhi told me about the Miao Tribe’s terrain. It’s pretty detailed, don’t you think?” Su Binglan could remember the map’s details but still asked Luo Jin’an about it to make sure.
Since Luo Jin’an also had a photographic memory and specialized in this field, he could memorize the map very quickly. Soon after, the couple washed up and went to bed.
While lying in the room, Su Binglan looked out the window toward the sky. She sighed and said, “Don’t you feel better now that we’re home?”
Luo Jin’an nodded. “It’s as if I’ve forgotten all our trivial problems now that we’re back.”
“Yeah, that’s how I feel, too. Once we settle things regarding the Miao family, we’ll be free to do whatever we want. We can go anywhere, too.”
“Of course,” Luo Jin’an said gently, “I’ll follow you wherever you go.”
Su Binglan smiled at him and nodded. She felt warm inside and had the strength to do wonders with her husband beside her.
After a good night’s sleep, Su Wenwu woke up early to make changes to some of his restaurants. He also opened a wine house that sold kebabs, wine, crayfish, and crabs.
Now that everyone was well-off, Su Wenwu introduced two new dishes. Everyone rushed to his restaurants to eat when they heard about it. They did not even ask what the dishes were because they knew the Su family’s dishes were delicious, regardless of what they were.
The spicy crab and spicy crayfish dishes were a hit as soon as Su Wenwu introduced them to the public. Previously, people were raving about the cold noodles. Soon after, people gravitated toward the crabs and crayfish.
However, Su Wenwu also told his customers that the new dishes were not suitable for everyone to eat. He also told them that they should not eat certain foods simultaneously.
It was to prevent some people from getting severe allergic reactions to seafood.
After staying home for two more days, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an set off to the Miao Tribe. Of course, they did not tell Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua about it. Instead, the younger couple said they were going out to take a look around.
Su Fengmao and his wife thought nothing much of it and let them go. Meanwhile, Su Fengmao spent the past two days with his godfather, strolling around the village and eating local cuisines. He even brought Ji Zhengjing to the Grand Theater to watch a play.
Ji Zhengjing did not expect Su Teng Village to be so lively. Since that was the case, he decided to retire here.
Although the Miao Tribe remained hidden in a secluded place, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an quickly found their location. The couple avoided the groups of guards and went to the innermost courtyard where Miao Sisi lived. She would also be the Miao Tribe’s next matriarch.
Miao Zhizhi was supposed to be the matriarch, but Miao Sisi had manipulated the people into thinking her sister was a terrible person. Therefore, Miao Sisi was now in control of almost all the tribe members.
When Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an entered the courtyard, they heard a conversation inside.
“Lady Sisi, we’ve encountered a problem with the Ye family. They haven’t responded to us in a long time.”
“What do you mean?” Miao Sisi asked coldly, “Haven’t they obtained the Black Shadow Pavilion token yet?”
“Ye Shishan said he’d find it soon. It’s just that”
“What is it?! Spit it out!” Miao Sisi roared impatiently.
“I-It’s just that we haven’t heard from him for a long time, Lady Sisi,” the man reported.
