Moyuan asked a second question. "Do you know who the Azure Bamboo Chessboard belongs to?"
Mo Wen's heart pounded as she shook her head again.
"It is a royal treasure. Legend has it that the Hidden Dragon has always used it!"
Mo Wen sprang to her feet. "The Hall of Knowing is... the Hidden Dragon?"
"Some things have become clear to me!" Moyuan said. "No wonder His Majesty kept creating every possible condition to elevate the Hall of Knowing. No wonder he went to such lengths to choose Jiang Ruyue. Only someone weak like Jiang Ruyue could preserve the elders' monopoly on glory, allowing him to use the Hall of Knowing to keep White Deer Academy firmly under his control!"
As she spoke the final sentence, Moyuan clenched her teeth tightly.
"Sister, what do we do next?"
"Chen Geng taking charge of White Deer Academy is now the only legally sound choice, and in truth, I have come to agree with it wholeheartedly!" Moyuan said. "We'll deliver the letter of appointment at once!"
With all the dust finally settled, Moyuan had ultimately stepped onto the same side as Lin Su.
Her stance had made a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn, yet it had nothing to do with the situation, nothing to do with Lin Su, but everything to do with a chessboard!
Through that chessboard, she had seen the Hall of Knowing clearly and seen the Current Majesty clearly!
She had felt deceived!
She had felt enraged!
She had also felt the ugliness of imperial power!
If she had delivered Chen Geng's appointment letter under pressure a day ago, Moyuan would have felt defeated. But today, she felt a strange thrill. His Majesty wanted to control White Deer Academy? Then she would make sure to throw a little grit in his eyes.
