Therefore, after Lan Ling’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs spoke out, the outside world suddenly fell silent.
…
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yiru finished his narration.
Ling Zhou threw away the last stone, stretched and was about to speak.
At this time, Chen Yiru adjusted his headphones, his face changed, and he said seriously: "Your Highness, there is news about Mi Lan."
Ling Zhou's eyes lit up when he heard this and he turned to look at Chen Yiru.
It had been 20 days since Mi Lan disappeared. Even he began to get anxious and worried about that cute girl.
He originally thought that if Mi Lan was still in Lanling, he should be able to find her soon.
But so much time has passed and there is still no news. He even thought Mi Lan had left Lan Ling.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yiru took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, based on the intelligence, we have already grasped Mi Lan's whereabouts. Our previous speculation was correct, Mi Lan is indeed still in Lanling."
Ling Zhou heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this and said with a smile, "Where is she?"
Chen Yiru took a deep breath, looked around, and said a name in a cold tone. Hearing this name, Ling Zhou's eyelids jumped.
"Xia family..."
Ling Zhou's eyes turned slightly cold, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Yes, according to Chen Yiru, Mi Lan is at the Xia family at this time.
Xia's family was Xia Tian's clan. Xia Tian was also his classmate since childhood, and he never expected that Mi Lan would be in Xia's family.
Doesn’t that mean that the Xia family has rebelled against the royal family?
Ling Zhou frowned.
The Xia family, like the Gu family and the Zhao family, is one of the four major families in Lanling and is highly valued by the royal family.
Moreover, the influence of these four families in Lanling can be said to be intertwined. Many people in the family are working in the government, and many of them are even high-ranking officials.
Moreover, the Xia family's business is spread all over the world, and the royal family has always been the backer of the Xia family internationally.
It can be said that the Xia family has now developed into one of the world's true super families, entirely because of the support of the royal family.
Therefore, the Xia family has absolutely no reason to have any disloyalty towards the Lanling royal family!
Otherwise, the royal family could destroy the Xia family with just a little effort.
"What did they say, father?"
Ling Zhou asked.
"Your Majesty is in the study, discussing matters with high-ranking military and political officials."
Chen Yiru said.
"oh!"
Ling Zhou said, "Now that we have determined the location, it is more important to rescue the people first."
"Yes, His Majesty also planned this, and has sent people to sneak into the Xia family mansion. After rescuing the people, we will settle the score with Xia."
Chen Yiru said.
Ling Zhou nodded, stood up, stretched, and said, "Let's go to the main hall."
Having said that, he stood up and prepared to go to the main hall.
At this moment, a shout was heard.
"younger brother."
When I turned around, it was my elder sister Ling Lanxin.
"Sister, why are you here?"
Ling Zhou said with a smile.
"Well! I'm going to the main hall. Do you want to go there too? Let's go together."
Ling Lanxin said.
Ling Zhou nodded and followed his sister towards the main hall.
…
The main hall of the palace.
During this period of time, the main hall of the palace has been very busy. People come and go regularly, and today is no exception.
In front of the main hall, men and women in military uniforms or suits were coming and going hurriedly.
When they saw Ling Lanxin and Ling Zhou, men and women hurriedly stopped and bowed to greet them.
Ling Zhou and Ling Lanxin, brother and sister, were not surprised at all and greeted everyone with a smile.
If they meet an important person, they will stop and return the greeting.
"Hello, Mr. Prime Minister."
At this moment, Ling Lanxin and Ling Zhou looked solemn, looked at the old man in front of them, and greeted him respectfully. This old man was the top leader of Lanling's political arena, the Prime Minister of Lanling Kingdom, Cai Jian.
"Hello, Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness."
Prime Minister Cai Jian bent down and bowed.
Although he is the prime minister, he cannot be disrespectful to the prince and princess. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful to the royal family. Disrespecting the royal family is disloyal to the country.
In that case, the royal family would have the right to remove him from the position of prime minister.
"Mr. Prime Minister, are you here this time also because of the Xia family?"
Ling Lanxin glanced at her brother and asked Cai Jian.
"Yes, Princess."
Cai Jian sighed, shook his head, and said, "Your Highness, Princess, Your Highness, I am busy with government business, so I will take my leave now."
"Okay, sir, take care."
Ling Zhou said.
Cai Jian nodded and left the main hall.
Watching Cai Jian leave, Ling Zhou said thoughtfully: "Sister, I heard that the Cai family and the Xia family are in a marriage relationship? Cai Jian's daughter-in-law is the sister of the head of the Xia family. These two families have always been very close?"
Ling Lanxin smiled and said, "Brother, don't let your imagination run wild. Prime Minister Cai Jian will not do anything that goes against Lan Ling's interests. He came here in time this time to prove his innocence."
Ling Zhou nodded.
The Prime Minister manages the Lanling government. Generally, except for specific dates, such as the first of each month, the Prime Minister must come to the palace to report to the monarch. He rarely comes to the palace at other times.
But every time he came, something big happened.
For example, he came after Lingzhou was attacked at sea last time and Lanling’s political arena was undergoing a major overhaul.
He came again this time to deal with the Xia family.
"Come on, let's go up."
Ling Lanxin smiled.
Ling Zhou nodded, followed his sister into the main hall, and went directly to the second floor of the main hall.
