Enthronement

Bai Hongqi stared at the drawn pattern for a while without speaking.

Meng Quanfu had already seen this drawn pattern before. In his opinion, the person who destroyed the ceremonial robe wasn't particularly clever. To pull off such a task, they shouldn't have acted two or three days beforehand. They should have done it the night before and revealed the damage when the robe was brought out for the ceremony. That way, they could have caught everyone off guard, making it more effective.

Starting so early would make it easy for others to find a replacement ceremonial robe. So, going through all this trouble, what's the point apart from taking on unnecessary risks?

Bai Hongqi raised his hand, lifted the lampshade, and brought the thin paper closer to the flame. The paper was delicate and caught fire instantly.

Although Meng Quanfu was slightly surprised as to why his master was burning it, he quickly handed over the spittoon to let Bai Hongqi throw the ashes into it.
