Chapter 246: Apologizing



Yu Zizhen first met with Kaiyang and Tianquan secretly, agreed on follow-up matters, and handed them an instant communication tool exchanged from the system, and then met with the Wu Qu sisters under the arrangement of Tianquan.

The Wu Qu sisters were both grateful and admired Yu Zizhen, who changed their destiny. When they knelt on one knee to pay their respects to Yu Zizhen, their expressions were even more pious and fanatical than those of the devout believers who prayed to God.

No matter what Yu Zizhen asked, the two of them not only answered everything they knew, but also always answered in unison, just to win this rare opportunity for Duoduo to talk to Yu Zizhen.

Tianquan, who was used to seeing their calm and shrewd side, discovered for the first time that these two actually had a lively and innocent side that matched their age.

He shook his head and left as quietly as possible, giving space to Yu Zizhen and the Wu Qu sisters.

Yu Zizhen stayed with Wu Qu for quite a long time. Firstly, she wanted to receive the latest news from the outside world through the Wu Qu sisters. Secondly, she also needed to observe closely this young couple, whom she had actually met for the first time.

Fortunately, apart from showing certain fangirl traits when facing her, the sisters' performance in other aspects still made her very satisfied.

Yu Zizhen felt that they could give more than 90 points for their intelligence, agility and professionalism.

"Do your best." Before leaving, she gave each of them a small black tag made of neither gold nor wood. "Keep this close to your body. It can save your life in a critical moment."

As one of the heads of the intelligence department, the sisters both had instant messaging tools that she exchanged from the system, so this time, she just gave them a small black sign that was formed by the mimicry of the "automatic counterattack" card that could prevent assassinations.

This small sign can help them rebound ten attacks. Given their cautiousness, Yu Zizhen felt that ten times would be enough for them.

After all, not only are they agile themselves, but the guards around them are also carefully selected, with strong combat power, rich combat experience and absolutely loyal and reliable.

After leaving Wu Qu, Yu Zizhen did not go to say goodbye to Kaiyang and Tianquan, but took her group of guards and slightly changed direction, going from the north to the east of the capital.

At the same time, the people from the Zhenbei Palace, who were the main target of Lu Tong's interception, finally returned safely to the Zhenbei Palace after experiencing many twists and turns. The palace had already raised the banner of "clearing the court and punishing the rebels".

As soon as they returned to the Zhenbei Palace, Mr. Jiang, the leader of the team, ran to apologize to the Zhenbei King.

He knelt before the King of Zhenbei, his forehead touching the ground, and said in a muffled voice: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent and failed to bring back the prince. I hope Your Majesty will punish me severely."

The King of Zhenbei helped him up personally, "Sir, what are you talking about? Come, sit down, let's talk properly."

He pushed Mr. Jiang into a high-back chair without saying anything, and then he walked around to the main seat behind the table and sat down. "Sir, please tell me in detail what happened in the capital from beginning to end."

Although Mr. Jiang sent someone back to report the news immediately, the content of the letter was limited after all. Rather than reading the letter, King Zhenbei wanted to hear Mr. Jiang say it again in person.

As for Yu Zizhen, compared with his ambition to dominate the world for thousands of years, the King of Zhenbei actually didn't care much about his daughter Yu Zizhen, who had no value in existence.

Naturally, he would not blame Mr. Jiang, who had made great contributions, for Yu Zizhen.

He comforted the other party with a few words, and then discussed with him the situation in the capital and the general situation in the world.

At the beginning, Mr. Jiang talked the most. He told the King of Zhenbei everything that had happened in the capital some time ago from beginning to end, and then he told him all the intelligence he had collected while traveling during this period in detail.

The more the Zhenbei King listened, the tighter his brows furrowed. "According to what you said, wouldn't Chen Hushan and Fang Huaiying have also safely left the capital and quietly returned to Southern and Western Xinjiang?"

Mr. Jiang put down his teacup and nodded vigorously. "Chen Hushan left even earlier than me, and Fang Huaiying left at about the same time as me."

Only Yu Zizhen had no idea when she disappeared. Not only could he, who used to live with her in the Zhenbei Palace, not find her, but even Lu Tong, who now had complete control of the entire capital, had no idea where this girl had gone.

This was not the most speechless thing for Mr. Jiang. The most speechless thing for Mr. Jiang was, "Your Majesty, judging from the Lu family's intentions, the Crown Prince may have also abducted the eldest prince out of the capital."

Mr. Jiang's imagination was still not broad enough. Although he saw some clues from some actions of the Lu family, he always thought that Yu Zizhen had only abducted the eldest prince, and did not dare to think that she had actually abducted all the people who had already or were most likely to sit in that position except the third prince.

Of course, this is not Mr. Jiang's fault. After all, what good person would, while aspiring to seize that position, also become close friends with the person who originally occupied that position and was the most qualified to occupy that position?

Prince Zhenbei had never expected that his daughter had actually smuggled the emperor, the eldest prince, the second prince, Xiao Shaoke, the most legitimate holders/heirs of the throne, out of the imperial city. When he heard what Mr. Jiang said, his thick brows furrowed even tighter.

After a brief thought, the King of Zhenbei ordered his trusted attendant to invite his real eldest son, Yu Zicheng, to come over.

Mr. Jiang almost immediately understood the thoughts and plans of the King of Zhenbei at the moment. He remained calm on the surface, but in his heart he was relieved for his master's decisive decision.

Yu Zicheng, who has been living as the second son of the Prince of Zhenbei for these years, has grown up very quickly. Under the planning and operation of the Princess of Zhenbei, Yu Zicheng officially started to get involved in the affairs of the palace as early as the age of twelve. With the careful teaching of the Prince of Zhenbei over the years, coupled with his long-term influence, his growth rate is still very gratifying to the Prince of Zhenbei and his wife.

"Father." Yu Zicheng saluted the King of Zhenbei in a proper manner. When the King of Zhenbei called him, he cast his clear eyes, which were gentle but slightly curious, towards Mr. Jiang who was observing him subtly.

"This is Mr. Jiang." The Prince of Zhenbei introduced his useful staff to his son. "He just came back from the capital."

Yu Zicheng's heart skipped a beat. "What about my sister... my brother? Is she back too? Is she okay?"

King Zhenbei was very pleased with his son's affection and righteousness, but at the moment, important matters were at hand, and he didn't want his son to miss the point.

"She hasn't come back, but she's not in the capital either. She should be safe now. You don't have to worry about her. Your father asked you to come here because he has something else to inform you of in advance."
