Chapter 1516 - 1517: Pulling Strings and Building Bridges
Capital City downtown, Yang Junmo wandered alone, unsure of where to go.
Su Chengyu returned to the Capital City in good spirits, but unexpectedly ended up drinking several cups and leaving Qilong Court ahead of everyone else.
Just as Su Chengyu suspected, Yang Junmo indeed discovered something.
At home, he clearly saw several books that had been read through in the study, along with scattered clues recorded on the side.
Without exception, these were things that Yang Junmo couldn’t understand and how they related to Su Chengyu, but in the notes, they were pointed to Su Chengyu with arrows, clearly trying to link these matters to him.
Yang Junmo wasn’t foolish; he recognized right away what the notes implied and realized his brother Yang Qianyan was secretly investigating Su Chengyu.
As a Demon Slayer Bureau Emissary, following his father’s command to investigate a potential candidate for the position is hardly surprising.
The contents of the notes undeniably made Su Chengyu overthink, and during the two days since Su Chengyu’s return, Yang Junmo also observed in secret.
Then, he noticed that Yang Qianyan’s behavior in these two days was exceptionally unusual, solidifying his own suspicions.
He was initially eager, upon Su Chengyu’s return, to share this matter with him, until he heard the name associated with the title "Tian Heng Emissary."
He did not know the significance of the words "Tian Heng," but he understood that the title was bestowed by the emperor, and thus realized that Su Chengyu, like Xu Zijing, had gained the trust of the Heavenly Son.
