As for the secretary, having been by Mr. Ouyang's side for so many years, he knew everything about him very well. It was more cost-effective to eliminate both of them rather than just one.

However, the identity of the murderer still couldn't be determined for now.

Because this person was agile, and what was crucial was that there were many of his people in the entire Yelü Palace. With the cooperation of those inside the royal family, without finding the right opportunity, if the real murderer was pointed out now, it would be easy for the other party to take the opportunity to escape.

"A fox will always show its tail eventually. Please give me a little more time, and I will soon expose that person." Her eyes were extremely sharp, like a sharp blade. As she looked at each person present, it seemed as if she could see through all of them.

"How long do we have to wait? We've been trapped here for several days already. If we keep waiting like this, who knows what else will happen."

They had originally come here happily to attend the wedding banquet, but instead, they had been caught up in a murder scandal and become suspects.

The guests at the scene were full of grievances. Everyone wanted to leave here as soon as possible and go back to their own homes to live a good life.

Freya said expressionlessly, "Three days. I will definitely give everyone an answer!"

"All right, we'll trust Your Highness of Solterra this time!"

After getting Freya's assurance, everyone dispersed.

Yelü An was standing next to Bradley at this moment. Witnessing Freya's bravery and courage throughout the whole process, he couldn't help but give Bradley a thumbs-up. "Not bad, Bradley. You really have found a brave and resourceful wife. In terms of her bearing, there are really few women who can compare to her."

The man hooked his lips proudly. "In this world, only Freya truly captivates my heart."

"Ugh, it's so cheesy. Do you really think it's okay to show your affection in front of an old man?" Yelü An pretended to shiver, but in his heart, he was happy for Bradley. After all, with his high power and great influence, he needed a capable woman to help him handle internal affairs, and Freya was indeed the most suitable person for this.

"If you have any opinions, why don't you find a woman to marry as well!"

When Bradley spoke, his eyes were always fixed on Freya. At this moment, she was standing in the sunlight, and the light shone on her, making her as beautiful as an angel.

Yelü An sighed and said, "Forget about getting married. When I'm old, I'll also adopt a son like Yelü Qi to take care of me in my old age."

After saying that, he also looked in Freya's direction and said softly, "I wonder who is so lucky to have given birth to such an excellent daughter."

Upon hearing these words, Bradley turned his head and stared fixedly at Yelü An.

At that moment, he actually saw some white hair on Yelü An's head, and he seemed to have aged a lot.

When people get old, what they desire most is to have their children by their side. Although Yelü An took good care of himself, he was already in his forties. At this age, what he yearned for was not love but family affection.

Bradley suddenly felt a little soft-hearted. If the father and daughter could recognize each other...

But Freya was persistent in refusing to recognize him. If he exposed the clues, it would definitely hurt Freya.

After weighing the pros and cons, Bradley finally hardened his heart and chose to keep this secret buried deep in his heart.

"Bradley, after this matter is settled, use your influence to help me find that woman from back then."

Yelü An had no other wishes in his life. He just hoped to find Bai Zhilan and make up for the mistakes he made in the past.

Bradley nodded. "Sure, but don't get your hopes up too high. So many years have passed, and maybe the other person is no longer alive."

"Even so, I still want to go to her grave and apologize. Only in this way can I have peace of mind for the rest of my life."

Yelü An actually had guessed this outcome. Over the years, he had spent a lot of manpower and resources looking for her, but he couldn't find the slightest clue. He had also prepared for the worst and was ready to face the news of her death.

The two of them stopped talking until they watched all the guests leave. At this time, Freya came closer and said to Yelü An, "Boss Xue, I need your help."

If it wasn't because Yelü An was from the Yelü royal family and was also Bradley's friend, Freya would definitely not have asked him for help.

Because before exposing that murderer, she had to stage a play, and this play required the assistance of someone from the royal family.

"Sure, go ahead."

Yelü An readily agreed.

Freya motioned for him and Bradley to move to a safe place, and then she revealed her plan. "I plan to stage a play tonight. Boss Xue, could you help me find some actors? Then they can follow my arrangements..."

After detailing the entire plan, Boss Xue looked at Freya with admiration. "All right, tonight, I'll accompany you to stage this play."

He also wanted to see who on earth dared to cause trouble in the Yelü royal family.

If it was someone from the Yelü royal family who did it, they must be cleared out as soon as possible to avoid future crises for Country Z. Of course, if it was someone from a foreign country, they definitely couldn't be let off easily.

Freya also assigned a task to Bradley. Basically, everyone had something to do.

Yelü An was very efficient in handling things. After reporting the situation to Yelü Qi, he found a theatrical troupe to stay in the palace.

The stage was also set up on the spot. When the guests learned that there would be a play performed at night, they all expressed their confusion.

At this critical moment, the Yelü royal family was going to stage a play. What on earth were they up to?

Everyone waited with unease for the play to begin.

After the stage was set up, Yelü An found Freya.

"Everything has been arranged properly. But how can you be sure that it will thunder and blow a strong wind tonight? If the weather doesn't cooperate, our plan won't be able to succeed."

Freya looked up at the sky and smiled mysteriously. "Boss Xue, I'm afraid you don't know that I studied astronomy before and know how to observe the celestial phenomena. Trust me, everything will go smoothly tonight."

She had observed that a typhoon eye had formed in the past few days, and tonight, a typhoon would land in Country Z. Even if the Yelü royal family wasn't affected by the typhoon, it would more or less bring thunderstorm weather.

And tonight was the best opportunity for her to expose the real culprit behind the scenes.

"After all, I underestimated you. I didn't expect that you, little girl, are not only proficient in medicine and know how to box, but now you also know how to observe the weather. What kind of luck did Bradley have to meet such an extraordinary woman like you?"

Boss Xue praised without hesitation.

Freya smiled faintly.

Bradley beside her looked very proud. He put his arm around Freya's shoulder and said, "That's because I've been faithful to Freya all my life, and that's how I've won her sincere love in return. Unlike some people who slept with a woman but didn't even know who she was."

These words really hit home.

Yelü Qi felt as if he had eaten bitter coptis root—he had a grievance but couldn't express it.

It was clearly his elder brother who had slept with the woman, but he had to take the blame. What was crucial was that he had been carrying this blame for more than twenty years.

When Freya heard these words, she also knew that Bradley was alluding to something.
