When Zheng Yejing, reminded by his guards, saw the enormous creature circling in the distant sky above the city, he had a bad feeling.
But at the same time, looking back at the blood-red void, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
It's as if I'm speaking to someone who's invisible, someone I can't see:
"Look! Your efforts prove that you haven't entrusted your case to the wrong person..."
Even if he wasn't sure if that person was still there, this huge walled city.
"Mysterious Wind!"
Zheng Ye summoned Zheng Ye and asked him to go out of the city to greet His Highness.
He reported the situation within the imperial city and the locations where officials and their families were to be settled.
At this time, the Duke of Huguo was with high-ranking officials in the court, unifying their thoughts.
Xuanfeng's expression was solemn as he glanced at the imperial city...
Although he didn't say anything, Zheng Ye immediately understood the meaning with just one glance.
Xie Zhun arrived more than ten days earlier than planned.
The day after his heart palpitations subsided, he ordered Qin Yuan to fly him to the capital by helicopter...
The princess had just left; without waiting for news, one could already guess the situation in the capital...
It was Wei Xunfang after all. Xie Zhun assumed that his arrival meant he wanted to discuss and adjust the plan with him...
Unexpectedly, Wei Xunfang took advantage of his unpreparedness and knocked him unconscious. He then had the doctor arranged by Xue Lin administer sedatives, allowing Xie Zhun to recuperate for a few days.
Because Wei Xunfang knew that Xie Zhun wouldn't get such a good night's sleep for a long time to come.
The ominous feeling wasn't just felt by Xie Zhun, but also by Wei Xunfang.
He was knowledgeable and had a keen memory, and as the restrictions became apparent...
Ning Xi'er's injury...
He was almost certain that Ning Xi'er's trip to the capital was fraught with peril...
But he understood even more clearly that the key to resolving the predicament in the capital lay with Ning Xi'er.
Therefore, even though he knew it was dangerous, he did not stop them.
"Master, the plane is ready!"
Qin Yuan reported from outside the tent.
Without further hesitation, Wei Xunfang instructed the doctor to use acupuncture to revive Xie Zhun.
When Xie Zhun woke up, he didn't waste time questioning him; he immediately mobilized his forces and began making arrangements.
Wei Xunfang was left to guard the main camp, while the second batch was arranged to leave.
Since there were limited seats in the helicopter, I, Qin Yuan, Xuan Lei, and the others went with the helicopter first.
If the helicopter does not return after two hours...
This proves that the main force can proceed to the capital.
With Wei Xunfang in charge, the safety of family members and guards was ensured; which were taken away and which were left behind...
Nowadays, Beijing is a melting pot, and who could have imagined that the greatest threat would come from there...?
The desolate place of exile, which had once sought to kill Xie Zhun and his party at every turn, has become the safest place for them within the Great Yan territory.
As the helicopter took off, Yang Tingxiu waved from the ground as a gesture of reassurance.
"Your Highness!"
The helicopter landed, and Xie Zhun, supported by Xuan Lei, got off.
Perhaps because of anxiety, I walked more steadily than before.
Seeing that Xuanfeng was alone, flames soared into the sky within the imperial city...
Xie Zhun's ominous premonition intensified.
"Where is the princess?"
It was almost blurted out.
Xuanfeng knelt down without saying a word.
"What happened?"
Qin Yuan was unusually anxious and immediately asked.
Your Highness...
The princess has disappeared!
"What?!"
Xie Zhun swayed slightly, and Qin Yuan asked in return.
After enduring a bout of dizziness, Xie Zhun forced himself to calm down. "What happened? Explain yourself."
Xuanfeng knelt down and carefully recounted everything that had happened since returning to the capital.
"Therefore, the imperial city was placed under a siege at that time, preventing airplanes from entering or leaving..."
"Those ministers, were they all transferred out of the city walls by the Queen herself?"
Xie Zhun's voice was colder than iron, "You're just going to watch her walk into the palace alone?"
Xuanfeng was speechless and pressed his forehead to the ground.
This was the only time in his life that he felt ashamed.
It wasn't because the princess was left alone...
The princess's fighting prowess surpasses that of all of them!
However, he left his comrades to face danger alone, fighting a lone battle...
Xuanfeng felt guilty, especially since it was someone as important as the prince!
"Your Highness, please calm down..."
Qin Yuan's voice was hoarse as he gazed at the flames soaring into the sky, unsure of how to offer any words of comfort.
"I am very calm."
Xie Zhun's voice was chillingly cold.
He needed to stay calm; he had to find her.
