The talismans on the wall spontaneously combusted, turned to ashes, and disappeared.
Clearly, it couldn't cause any harm to Mo Yunhan.
Qin Minglang was too preoccupied with the pain to care about anything else.
It howled and ran towards the city gate.
"Someone come quick! Someone come quick! Mo Yunhan is here, and the Ninth Prince is here!"
This alley is not far from the city gate.
Upon hearing this, Sun Ke, who was fighting Zheng Qing, immediately abandoned Zheng Qing and ran over.
Zheng Qing followed closely behind, and all the soldiers arrived in a dense crowd.
Ye Qi, who had just arrived at the city gate to rescue the people, was completely dumbfounded.
Seeing that several people had escaped in the chaos at the city gate, he immediately turned back and followed the soldiers to the alley entrance, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
But there was no sound of Mo Yunhan in that alley, or in the surrounding alleys.
Sun Ke searched for a long time but found nothing, and in anger, he slapped Qin Minglang across the face.
Where are they?
Qin Minglang's mouth was full of blood. He pointed at his throwing knife on the wall and explained urgently, "I trapped him here. I really saw it. His eyes were bloodshot, like a monster."
Zheng Qing raised his hand and slapped him back.
"Bullshit! So many of us didn't see it, but you did? And you even dare to implicate the Ninth Prince? Who gave you the guts?"
Qin Minglang's face was swollen like a pig's head from the beating.
She covered her face and squatted on the ground, looking aggrieved.
"He really went into the city!"
In a small courtyard not far away.
Mo Yunhan stared intently at the man before him, suppressing the murderous intent surging in his chest, and coldly questioned, "Who are you? Why are Wan'er's things in your hands?"
Dou Sichen gently stroked the purse in her hand.
His handsome face seemed to be reminiscing.
"This is something I embroidered for Qingwan."
Mo Yunhan's dark pupils suddenly narrowed.
He had never heard of Jiang Qingwan having any relatives.
Those who might have given Jiang Qingwan personal items must have had a very close relationship with her.
"Is it inconvenient for Wan'er to come over, so she asked you to wait for me here?"
Dou Sichen shook his head.
"No, she didn't know."
Mo Yunhan frowned.
"Then why did you lure me here in the first place? What do you want?"
Dou Sichen sized him up.
Although Mo Yunhan's eyes were bloodshot and his face was sinister at this moment, he still possessed an otherworldly beauty.
This is the kind of look that Junior Sister would like.
Unfortunately, he was a prince.
He took out a box from his sleeve, opened it, and inside was a pill with a strong medicinal fragrance.
"This medicine can extend the Emperor Emeritus's life by six months. You should know that even a god couldn't cure his illness."
Mo Yunhan narrowed his eyes slightly.
What do you want?
Dou Sichen gently tugged at the corner of her lips.
He naturally exuded a scholarly air and appeared harmless, seemingly without any aggression.
It subconsciously evokes a sense of closeness in people.
This is also the aura he has cultivated through years of practicing medicine.
But the words he spoke at that moment were colder and more heartless than anyone else's.
"After you take the medicine, you are never allowed to see Jiang Qingwan again in your life."
"impossible!"
Mo Yunhan refused without hesitation.
Dou Sichen raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? You really are a filial son, watching your own father die but refusing to save him even though you could."
Mo Yunhan remained unmoved.
“When I was a child, I was bled out and left unconscious in a snowdrift for three days and three nights without anyone caring for me. He was my own father, and he could have saved me but refused. You can’t use filial piety to bind me.”
Human nature is fickle.
Dou Sichen has seen too much.
It's rare to see someone so cold-hearted.
He suddenly became quite interested.
"If one day Qingwan were to destroy the Great Zhou, what would you choose?"
Mo Yun's cold, sharp lips pursed slightly.
After a moment, she looked up at Dou Sichen, her tone firm.
"She won't."
Dou Sichen found it laughable.
"How can you be so sure? You only know the tip of an iceberg about her, yet you dare to say that..."
Mo Yunhan interrupted him.
"Yes, I don't even know who you are or what your relationship is with her, but there's one thing I'm very clear about. Wan'er is not a murderer. Although she is indifferent to human relationships and never wants to get involved in chaos, she has great respect for human life and the common people. But if you ask her to kill those hypocritical dogs in the Great Zhou royal family who treat human life like dirt, then I'll hand her the knife."
Dou Sichen choked.
He never expected Mo Yunhan to answer like that.
But it seems that this is the answer he is most satisfied with.
She had to admit that the man in front of her understood her junior sister better than Qin Minglang did.
He reached out and handed over the medicine.
"Go and save your father."
Mo Yunhan didn't answer, but instead asked,
Where is Jiang Qingwan?
...
News of Mo Yunhan's entry into the city quickly reached the palace.
At that time, Mo Yunzhao was searching for someone throughout the palace.
He didn't believe that Jiang Qingwan could really disappear into thin air.
From the Kuihe Hall to the main gate leading out of the palace, every road was guarded by Imperial Guards.
But no one has ever seen her.
Not even a lowly eunuch ever left the palace gates.
Where did the person go?
He stood with his hands behind his back, feeling irritated, and a strange tightness in his chest.
"Bring me my armor."
The chief eunuch was stunned.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing...?"
Mo Yunzhao snorted coldly, "Xiao Jiu has gone mad and attacked the city. How can I let him make another mistake? Yan Yunqing, hurry up and send the most elite Imperial Guards out of the palace with me. I want to see if he will also disappear into thin air!"
Having received the news, Mo Shaojun waited at the palace gate early in the morning.
