“Gee! Gee! Gee!”
Li Mingyue rode a fast horse and galloped freely in the imperial city of Da Qi with a group of subordinates.
Seeing this, the common people in the capital stretched their necks out of curiosity. Some even boldly discussed, "What's going on? It's been years since we've seen the princess this irritable."
"You may not know yet, something happened to the Imperial Master!"
"No way, didn't the Imperial Master go to Yangzhou to help with the epidemic? I heard the epidemic is under control. I also heard that the Imperial Master severely ripped off those speculators. It's really satisfying. What happened?"
"I heard from my friend who works in the palace that the Imperial Preceptor has been captured by the White Lotus Sect!"
"What?! How could the Imperial Preceptor be captured by the White Lotus Sect? Isn't he in Yangzhou? How could there be a White Lotus Sect in a place like Yangzhou? What are those people around the Imperial Preceptor doing for a living?"
"I don't understand it either. Anyway, he was captured and now his life or death is uncertain."
"Oh, what a sin! Ever since the Imperial Master was born, the lives of the people of Da Qi have been thriving. We've only been enjoying a few days of good times, and yet he was captured!"
"No, I'm going to Yangzhou right now. I have some friends in Yangzhou who are good at hunting. I'll ask them for help."
"I'm going too! My child was on the verge of death, and it was only after he took the Imperial Master's Holy Grace Pill that he recovered. If it weren't for the Imperial Master, our family would have been extinct. I must repay this kindness!"
In fact, not only the outlaws in the capital, but also many outlaws from all over the country began to take action after hearing that Lu Chen had been captured.
The most proactive among them are Taoism and Buddhism.
This kind of thing sounds unbelievable. It is obvious that Lu Chen has screwed them over badly, and they should be the ones who want Lu Chen dead the most. Why would they actively look for Lu Chen?
The reason is very simple. This time, the Buddhist and Taoist sects really contributed manpower and effort in the four cities, which can be regarded as Li Xia's great contribution.
Such efforts have also yielded excellent results. Today, these two companies have a very solid mass base in the four cities. While everyone praises Lu Chen, they also praise these two companies. Their interests are tied together with Lu Chen's.
Besides, they have worked so hard for so long and finally got the job done. Now it is time to reward them.
Lu Chen had promised them a lot of good conditions at the beginning, but now he is suddenly gone, and they are panicking.
Without Lu Chen as a middleman, how could they ask for those benefits from the court, and how could the promised certificates of ordination be delivered to them?
Today, they are like creditors who are owed hundreds of millions of dollars, and they really have to serve the debtors carefully.
If Lu Chen really died, they would suffer a huge loss!
What's more, the White Lotus Sect is also a religion. Since ancient times, colleagues have been enemies, and there is naked hatred between colleagues.
Everyone is preaching in an orderly manner within the framework permitted by the law, but you, the White Lotus Sect, don't play by the rules. You use some mysterious and weird means to fool your believers all day long and grow yourselves at a very fast speed. It's really enviable and hateful!
Industry scum like this must be eliminated!
So during this period, Buddhism and Taoism raided many of the White Lotus Sect's lairs.
Isn’t your White Lotus Sect rooted among the common people? Our Buddhism and Taoism also have a pretty good mass base!
During this period, the members of the White Lotus Sect finally got to see what the wrathful Vajra of Buddhism meant, and what it meant to kill the three corpses in order to achieve enlightenment in Taoism!
In short, Lu Chen's disappearance completely stirred up the world.
Li Mingyue's horse galloped all the way and rushed directly to the gate of the palace. Seeing this, the palace guards wanted to step forward to stop him, but Li Mingyue whipped him away with a fierce whip.
Fortunately, only Li Mingyue rushed in alone, and the guards who came with her stopped obediently at the gate of the palace, otherwise the palace guards would have given a signal.
Li Mingyue galloped on horseback in the palace, attracting the attention of palace maids, eunuchs, and some ministers who came to do their work.
Soon the news that she rushed into the palace spread, and the news that the queen sent people to take over Lu Chen Commercial Street also spread.
Hua Bule, with whip marks on his face, ran to Li Zhuo in panic and said, "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The princess is here, carrying a horse whip."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhuo also panicked. He certainly knew how unkind his actions were. Even though he did it through the Queen, he still felt guilty.
Soon Li Mingyue rushed in, followed by a group of eunuchs and guards. Everyone had their swords drawn, but no one dared to do anything to Li Mingyue.
After seeing Li Zhuo, Li Mingyue threw the whip to the ground and looked at Li Zhuo and said, "What do you mean?"
The corners of Li Zhuo's mouth twitched twice, and then he frowned and said, "How dare you! What are you doing? Do you know who you are? Do you still want to maintain the dignity of the royal family?"
"Hahaha, the dignity of the royal family? You also know that our royal family must be respectable! My royal brother, if you really care about the dignity of the royal family, would you do such a thing? Lu Chen just disappeared not long ago, are you so impatient?"
Li Zhuo's brows furrowed even more. He said with some displeasure, "What nonsense are you talking about? The Queen sent people there because she was worried that Lu Chen was away and that the people below were not working diligently. She was also worried that some despicable people would covet Lu Chen's property."
"You don't need to tell me this. You just need to know that this matter has spread throughout the capital, and the people have nothing good to say about it. I don't care whether you really want to help Lu Chen protect his property or have other ideas. If you still care about the royal family's reputation, you'd better withdraw your people."
