As noon approached, Su Yuan, along with Su Qi and Su Yu, also returned to the capital. 

The first thing Su Qi and Su Yu did was rush to visit their grandfather. 

“I’ll go first!” 

“No, I‘ll go first!” 

The two brothers pulled each other, not willing to give way. 

In the end, Su Yu managed to get ahead of his second older brother by a narrow margin, squeezing into the Old Marquis’s room. 

As soon as they entered the room, the brothers who had been arguing outside immediately became silent. 

Looking at their grandfather, who had been able to practice martial arts in the yard before they left, now lying weakly in the bed, their eyes reddened. 

“What happened to grandfather?” Su Yu choked. 

The letter had mentioned that their grandfather’s health wasn’t good, but they hadn’t expected it to be this bad. 

Su Qi blamed himself, “It’s my fault, if I had known…… I shouldn’t have gone to attend that coming-of-age ceremony……”  

“Don’t blame yourself, second brother.” Su Yu rarely didn’t tease his second older brother, “You couldn’t have helped much at the house anyway.” 

Su Qi sniffed, “At least I could have kept grandfather company……” 

Su Yu said, “Second brother, don’t think you’re that important.” 

Su Qi: “……” 

Su Yuan also came to see the Old Marquis, and then, with a heavy heart, he went to the study room next door. 

“What did Doctor Fu say?” Su Yuan asked. 

Su Mo didn’t hide anything from his father, “Poisoned, heart disease.” 

Su Yuan was shocked and tightly gripped the armrest of his chair, “What? How could your grandfather be poisoned?” 

The heart disease was also unexpected, but the poisoning was even more unbelievable. 

Su Mo said, “I’m still investigating it secretly, but so far, I still have no clue. I asked about my grandfather’s usual diet, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary, so we can rule out accidental poisoning.”   

The kind of accidental poisoning he was rendering to was when a certain mix of food couldn’t be eaten together, which rarely happened but it was also possible. 

However, the poison of the Old Marquis obviously did not belong to this type of situation. 

Su Mo continued, “I suspect…… someone poisoned Grandfather, but I haven’t figured out how it was done or where it started yet.” 

Su Yuan nodded, agreeing with his son’s theory, “Who would poison your grandfather?” 

Su Mo said solemnly, “Grandfather has been in the military all his life, he is upright and has made countless enemies. From a motive perspective, it may be difficult to pinpoint the culprit. From the perspective of the beneficiaries, the first beneficiary is actually our father.” 

Su Yuan hesitated to speak. 

Su Mo continued, “If Grandfather passed away, father would inherit the title of Marquis of Zhenbei. I know that father would never harm grandfather, but all the officials in court and the people in the capital know that a few months ago, grandfather had a huge argument with father. Grandfather even threatened to revoke father’s position as heir and return the title to the imperial court.” 

Su Yuan forced a bitter smile, “So, to persevere the title, it’s very likely that I would harm your grandfather.” 

Su Mo’s gaze was firm, “Father wouldn’t do that. But, the rumors can cause trouble.”  

Su Yuan knew that his son trusted him, and understood that his son was merely analyzing the situation objectively and fairly, breaking down the clues. 

He felt proud of having such a son. 

Su Mo saw that his father didn’t feel upset and continued, “Grandfather held military power. If he passed away, the military families who would benefit are numerous, such as the Wei, Murong, Qin, and Leng families.” 

Su Yuan shook his head and said, “The Qin and Su families are closely connected. Without your grandfather, the Qin family’s influence in the court will also be weakened. The Qin family will not frame your grandfather. As for the Wei and Leng families……”  

Su Yuan remained silent. 

The dispute between the Wei and Su families could not be explained in a few words. 

“By the way, father, there’s one more thing.” Su Mo said again. 

Su Yuan said, “Tell me.”
