Chapter 592: Risking the World's Disapproval
Emperor Mingpei stood there quietly, and his whole body seemed to be split into two halves.
Half of him was thinking about his chubby little granddaughter, he felt so distressed that he couldn't breathe, and his heart was so worried that it twisted into knots.
But the other half belongs to the emperor.
But he was calm and composed, thinking about how to take advantage of this matter and completely control the world.
It is very easy to empathize with a group.
It is just like when Shen Shouyan came to power, it made all the people in the martial arts world think “I can do it too”, and the martial arts examination suddenly became popular.
Just like Hu Dakuan, he can make those who stand on the opposite side of the martial arts examination feel ashamed to associate with him.
What happened now was that Princess Zhenguo came to the Guo family to celebrate for them, and accidentally saved so many people from the martial arts world, but she got into trouble because of it, and was even kidnapped... This really makes it easy for people to feel a sense of common hatred for the enemy.
Of course, the prerequisite is to ensure the safety of Xinbao first.
As an emperor, he has long been accustomed to putting all emotions behind things.
Emperor Mingpei's body was shaking slightly and his eyes were red, but his mind was still sharp and he thought through the matter clearly in no time.
Then he said, "Call Shouyan over."
Shen Shouyan came over in a hurry, and Emperor Mingpei said, "Gu Banmei is a man of the underworld, and men of the underworld have their own ways. You take Wei Fengting and Long Xiangwei with you and follow their ways to find him."
Shen Shouyan asked anxiously: "What about Xinbao?"
Emperor Mingpei shook his head and showed him the paper. "He has been waiting for this answer with all his might. Before this answer is given to him, Xinbao is safe. It must be delivered to him before the deadline, otherwise this matter cannot be resolved at all."
He simply explained to him what happened that year: "Just keep it in mind, don't tell others yet, lest he hear about it. He is so desperate that anything could happen."
Shen Shouyan nodded repeatedly, without saying anything more, and hurriedly followed Wei Fengting.
Yan Shichang was almost going crazy with anxiety, and followed him like a headless fly. At this time many people had not left yet, and when Guo Dong told him about the matter, his face changed drastically.
When he found Hua Shuang unconscious at home, he realized something was wrong. Something had indeed happened.
Xinbao saved someone yesterday. At that time, everyone was just curious. After the excitement wore off, they remembered the fear afterwards, and became more grateful to Xinbao... Especially this morning, the people from Shengping Palace sent the pills over, and these people were even more grateful.
When everyone heard that Xinbao was in trouble, they were shocked.
Shen Shouyan asked anxiously, "Does anyone know that Gu Banmei? Do you know where his home is? Do you know where else he lives?"
Guo Jingcheng said: "But his home is very far away!"
Someone said: "Gu Banmei is not in good health, how can he have such a skill!!"
Shen Shouyan said coldly: "Yesterday he pretended to be a shadow guard and his Qinggong was very good. I'm afraid his so-called poor health was just an act!"
Someone seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Shen Shouyan quickly noticed and turned to look at him.
That person was one of the people Xinbao rescued yesterday. He gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Banmei... He is actually very good at Qinggong, especially good at using poison. He can almost be called a master in using poison. He is pretending to be in poor health. I, I have received his favor, so I know some things, but I have also received the favor of the little princess. The rules of the martial arts world do not punish women and children. I, I know where he is staying here. I will take you to find him!!"
"Okay!" Shen Shouyan patted him on the shoulder and immediately said, "Chang'er and I will follow you! Please ask Lord Wei to help here. Lao Guo, you know many people, so I'll leave this to you."
Guo Dong agreed without hesitation, and said, "Jingcheng should go too, he knows the way well!"
Guo Jingcheng responded repeatedly.
Wei Fengting often appears before the emperor and knows what Emperor Mingpei is thinking. When he came here today, he was very humble.
But seeing that Guo Dong didn't think at all about "Will I be implicated if something happens here" and "I can't bear the responsibility of such a big thing", but took on the responsibility without hesitation, I couldn't help but admire him.
People of the underworld also have their own cute qualities.
Shen Shouyan followed him immediately, and Guo Jingcheng called a few acquaintances to go with him as well.
Guo Dong didn't hesitate to ask for help. He called out his wife, children and servants and started looking for traces of the man everywhere.
On the other hand, when Emperor Mingpei wanted to look for Yuan Shenjue, he found out that he and Hao Huashi had already gone to look for him. He directly called out the shadow guards to make arrangements and acted decisively.
After everything was arranged, Emperor Mingpei sat down slowly, covered his eyes and eyebrows with his hands, and suddenly, tears fell like rain.
Fang Wuyou quietly brought over some tea, but when he saw Emperor Mingpeidi's face, he was so scared that his legs went limp and he fell to his knees.
there,
Yuan Shenjue and Hao Huashi were leading the shadow guards, investigating everywhere with Merlin as the center.
In this matter, the possibility of collusion among the parties is too small.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Emperor Mingpei's decision to go to the Guo family was a spur of the moment decision, and Gu Banmei's decision must have been a spur of the moment decision as well.
Yes, he might have been planning for this for several years, and he might have come here for Emperor Mingpei in Shengping Palace, but meeting them at the Guo family was definitely a surprise for him.
Because of the chaos caused by Hu Dakuan, he acted on impulse, so he was most likely to reveal his whereabouts around Merlin.
It was the middle of the night and there were no pursuers behind him, so he generally didn't need to make a feint to the east or attack in the west, so the direction he went was the direction they were looking for.
So as soon as Yuan Shenjue found Merlin, he took the shadow guards to investigate everywhere without any hesitation.
Hao Huashi also listened carefully to what was happening around him.
After all, some people are afraid of things and may not dare to say it in person, but they will talk about it behind their backs.
Sure enough, after asking, a middle-aged woman who was up at night said that around midnight last night, she saw a man walking to the west with something in his hands.
They immediately headed west.
…………
Xinbao woke up in a daze.
He was very hungry and his whole body felt weak and limp. Xinbao subconsciously wanted to call her "wife", but then he held himself back.
She remembered that she had been captured by the bad guys and her wife had not come to rescue her yet.
Xinbao cleverly remained motionless, trying to maintain his even breathing like when sleeping, and then used his ears to try to listen where the bad guys were.
Just as I was about to eavesdrop, I vaguely heard the sound of quarreling outside.
It seemed that outside the cabin, the bad guy and another man were arguing.
The man said in a loud, choking voice: "Why on earth did you do this? It won't do us any good! Instead, you'll expose yourself!"
The bad guy said calmly, "I just happened to come across a good opportunity, so I just did it. The result doesn't matter anyway. I just want to overturn the verdict for my family. I believe the emperor will not ignore the life of this child, so isn't that enough?"
"What happens next? How do you get out?"
"I have no intention of getting out. I know I am now in danger of being condemned by the world, and I have no intention of living in vain as long as it is accomplished."
