King Yu was silent for a moment before he knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Imperial Father, I suspect that eldest brother is indeed the one who kidnapped this son. Moreover, it isn't just eldest brother, both the Jin Emperor and the Li family are also suspected by this son."
The corners of the emperor's eyes twitched."Jun Yu, do you know what you're saying?"
"Father, your son understands, " King Yu raised his head and looked at the emperor with a pained gaze."Your son has received your teachings and should always remember to be magnanimous and kind to your brother. But now, the actions of the King and King Jin have truly chilled your son's heart." The royal family's struggle had always been cruel, but they had long agreed upon a common understanding. No matter how fierce the conflict was in the imperial court, it would not affect their families or their children. This was because if they were to fight to the end, the entire Royal family would be weakened. But now, the actions of King Yu and King Jin were directly trampled upon ...
At this bottom line.
The emperor's face turned ugly as his chest heaved."Jun Yu, we have not investigated this clearly. Who knows if it has anything to do with the King of Xiang and the King of Jin?" King Yu's tone was heavy, "Imperial Father, this son does not have concrete evidence right now. However, who else do you think has the ability to hide his whereabouts, hide his crossbow in the capital, and know the whereabouts of the imperial guards? Furthermore, even the guards of the city guards can be used to protect him?
"
The Emperor clenched his fist tightly, the light in his eyes fiercely struggling. After a long time, he suddenly spoke."Wei Yi, go investigate."
A figure suddenly appeared and knelt down. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.
Yue Yang's eyes flashed, and quickly, they turned dark before disappearing without a trace.
Inside King Yu's Mansion, Mu Yunyao quickly skimmed through the news Wei Jiu had sent over. Her expression became colder and colder as she continued, "I've investigated thoroughly. The person who helped to obstruct the imperial guards last night was indeed related to the Li family?"
"Yes, those people have strange movements and should have come from the northern border. They have been hiding their tracks the entire way, and the houses they entered were arranged for them to be bought by the Li family three months ago."
"Is there any news of Yu Wangfei?"
"No, it's as if Princess Yu vanished into thin air."
Mu Yunyao frowned, "Six liang? From last night to now, he hasn't come back at all. There hasn't been any news at all.
"This servant is useless. I did not manage to find out anything about six taels of silver."
"I understand. You can continue investigating." Just as Wei Jiu was about to leave, a figure suddenly appeared and knelt in front of Mu Yunyao.
"Greetings, Master."
"Wei Yi, why aren't you protecting the emperor?"
"The emperor ordered the Shadow Squad to thoroughly investigate the abduction of Princess Yu."
Mu Yunyao's eyes moved as a cold light flashed in her heart."Does my grandmother have something for you to bring over?"
"Reporting to my lord, Grand Princess Yi De has asked this servant to pass the message. It shall be final."
"Break, break ..." "If it's broken, then it's broken ..." Mu Yunyao whispered a few sentences to herself before abruptly closing her eyes."Wei Jiu, tell Wei Yi all the information you've gathered and pin all the crimes of abducting Princess Yu to Duke Yu."
Wei Jiu was puzzled."Master, where are Prince Jin and the Li Family?" Although the Emperor trusted King Yu and Prince Fu, he still had feelings for the other princes. If the two princes were to be completely annihilated and even the Li family was implicated, the Emperor would think that King Yu was taking the opportunity to eliminate the other party. Even if the Emperor did not suspect the Emperor, the other princes would all be in the imperial court as well.
"The officials will cause a ruckus. Why don't we find one of them and take care of the Duke? Prince Jin and the Lee family can take care of this slowly."
"Yes." Four hours later, the imperial guards entered the palace and sent evidence to the effect that the king had secretly ordered the imperial guards to set fire to the capital and sent evidence against the imperial guards to the emperor's case. In addition, there were several confessions from the city guards of the east gate. Although the confession did not involve the King, it did involve him ...
He was someone that he trusted.
After the emperor finished reading, he flew into a rage and threw down his teacup.
King Yu stepped forward, "Imperial Father, the most important thing right now is to find Princess Yu. She carries this son's flesh and blood with her. If anything goes wrong, this son will definitely regret it for the rest of his life."
The emperor looked at the secret letter on the table and gritted his teeth. Now that royal father is so old, there are many things that you can no longer care about. royal father hopes that you can follow the bottom line in your heart and not do anything ... Make something similar to your big brother."Forget it, go ahead."
King Yu knelt on the ground, kowtowing three times to the Emperor before standing up and leaving quickly.
After a long while, the body of the Emperor swayed before falling to the ground.
Xu Li cried out in alarm, and the imperial physicians quickly rushed over.
After King Yu and King Yue left the mansion, they headed straight for the Yu Mansion and gathered all the manpower they could muster.
Mu Yunyao walked out quickly. Seeing the scene in front of her, her eyes suddenly flashed, "Fourth Master, Second Brother he ..."
Yue Yang's eyes shone brightly: "Father has already given the order to let second brother do as he pleases."
"Then what are your second brother's plans now?"
"Search the Duke's Mansion." Mu Yunyao's fingers clenched."It's better to be early than late. Since we've already decided to make a move, then there's no need to hesitate. Fourth Master, you ..." The Emperor's order to allow King Yu to act was tantamount to giving up on the King. Although his choice was the correct decision as the Emperor, as his father, he definitely felt a lot of reluctance ...
It was the best course of action now, when the king and his supporters had no time to react and could only stomp him to the ground.
"I've already asked Yu Heng to gather some men. I'm afraid the people under second brother's command won't be able to enter the manor."
If the King was able to order more than fifty men to fight, then there might be more hidden experts in the manor. Once the Emperor discovers that he has been abandoned, he might get angry out of embarrassment and resist by force.
Mu Yunyao's heart became heavy. She thought about how she had been schemed to death by the Jin Emperor in King Yue's mansion in her previous life. The situation now was extremely similar, "Fourth Master, make your move quickly. I'm worried that Second Sister-in-law will be imprisoned in the Duke's manor."
King Yue grabbed onto Mu Yunyao's hand and discovered that her palm was ice-cold. He could not help but increase his strength, "Yao`er, I'll immediately have someone take action."
"Alright." Mu Yunyao's face paled. She couldn't openly use the Shadow Squad right now, so she could only secretly cooperate. She hoped that she could make it in time.
Within the palace, the emperor was unconscious for less than an hour before slowly opening his eyes.
Princess Yi De hurriedly stepped forward."Your Imperial Majesty, you've woken up. Do you want some warm water?"
When the emperor saw the face of Grand Princess Yi De, he opened his mouth and let out a hoarse wail, "Big sister Yi ..."
"I'm here." The Grand Princess held the Emperor's hand, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart.
"My royal sister, I'm really getting old. I'm holding on ..." "I can't hold on any longer..." "The emperor is fine. The imperial physician said so, but he's overthinking it. As long as we relax our minds, it'll be over soon."
