In the inn in Shangjing, Guan Muxi, Ye Wuheng and others were discussing their next move.
An hour had passed, and the emperor had already fled. Just as they were discussing heatedly, they suddenly heard a rapid knock on the door.
"Dong, Dong, Dong." The sound was crisp and rhythmic, as if carrying some urgent message.
Guan Muxi raised his hand and immediately lifted the isolation formation.
Ye Wuheng frowned slightly and looked towards the door: "Who is it?"
A deep male voice came from outside the door: "Master! It's me."
When Ye Wuheng heard this, his expression changed slightly and he immediately said, "Come in."
The door opened and a man dressed in black walked in.
He is tall, with a serious face, and his eyes reveal a determination and courage.
This person was the one who was sent to the palace to monitor the emperor.
Guan Muxi looked at him and asked, "Why are you back? Did something happen in the palace?"
Ye Wuheng also stared at him nervously, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
The man took a deep breath and said in a heavy voice, "The emperor is missing."
This statement was like a bolt from the blue, plunging the entire room into silence. Everyone looked at each other, feeling a surge of unease.
"What?!" Guan Muxi stood up suddenly after hearing the news, with an expression of astonishment and disbelief on her face. She widened her eyes, seeming to be very surprised by what she heard.
How is this possible? At this time in his previous life, that dog emperor should still be in the palace. Guan Muxi pondered inwardly, his brows furrowed tightly, full of confusion.
Could it be that because I sneaked into the palace and looted it, he took action in advance?
Anger surged in Guan Muxi's heart, and he gritted his teeth fiercely. This dog emperor is so cunning!
Although the dog emperor escaped this time, she knew that they would meet again soon.
Where else could he escape to? He could only flee to his aunt, the Beast Tamer Sect, the largest sect in the Middle Realm. Her aunt was one of the Beast Tamer Sect's elders.
In her previous life, she was able to kill him once.
It is possible in this life!
"How far has this matter spread?"
If the news spreads too quickly, the people in the capital will riot!
"As soon as the palace learned that the emperor was missing, I returned immediately!"
General Ye Wuheng thought for only a moment before giving the order.
"Han'er, come back to the palace with me!"
Now the Dog Emperor is missing, and his offspring are too young.
Not qualified to succeed to the throne and take charge of the overall situation.
And it is a good time for Mo Yuhan to go back now!
As for the other princes...they were killed by that dog emperor long ago.
If the dog emperor had not cared about the people and ministers, Mo Yuhan would have died long ago.
He was lucky to escape alive.
Ye Wuheng and Mo Yuhan both understood that the situation was extremely urgent and if they did not take action quickly, it might cause even greater chaos.
They must return to the palace quickly, stabilize the situation and ensure the normal operation of the country.
Mo Yuhan nodded, indicating that he agreed with his uncle's decision. It was the first time that Mo Yuhan was so serious.
So, they quickly packed up their luggage and prepared to return to the palace.
Along the way, they were secretly happy about the emperor's escape, but on the other hand, they were anxious and thinking about how to deal with the situation that would follow.
Guan Muxi distributed the antidote to several people, and everyone returned to their original appearance.
When Mo Yuhan appeared at the gate of the palace holding a token, the guards were almost scared to death.
Because behind Mo Yuhan, there was their great general, Ye Wuheng!
And the Meixian family.
Shouldn't the general be in the north? Why did he appear in Shangjing? Also, when did Prince Mo Yuhan leave the palace?
The guards were confused, but they did not dare to delay and quickly let everyone into the palace!
After returning to the palace, Ye Wuheng immediately summoned the ministers to discuss countermeasures.
Everyone was shocked and worried about the emperor's disappearance, and expressed their determination to do their best to find the emperor's whereabouts.
But now the national treasury is empty and there is no one in charge in the court.
After discussion, the ministers decided that Mo Yuhan would temporarily take over the position of emperor.
Until the emperor is found.
In the following days, Mo Yuhan actively participated in government affairs and put forward many constructive opinions and suggestions.
His performance was recognized and appreciated by some ministers, and he gradually established his own prestige.
More than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The ministers still could not find any trace of the emperor.
Of course they couldn't find it.
In the court, Mo Yuhan listened boredly to the ministers reporting on things.
His beautiful pair of peach blossom eyes had lost their luster at this moment. His eyes were blank and he responded mechanically.
"Um."
"good."
"good."
“It can be implemented!”
If he had not watched his father handle court affairs since he was a child, he would have collapsed long ago.
It’s so boring! Being an emperor is so boring!
When he was a child, he always pestered his father to make him emperor.
Thinking back then, I really had something missing in my brain.
At this moment, a voice brought him back to his thoughts.
"I have something to report."
"What's the matter, Prime Minister?"
"Your Highness, the Emperor's whereabouts are unknown, and his life or death is uncertain. There has been no news for over half a month."
The Prime Minister took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind.
"I believe that Your Highness should succeed to the throne... The court, and indeed the Great Mountain Kingdom, cannot be without a ruler for a single day!"
The Prime Minister's words had just come out.
The ministers were in an uproar.
“This…this…”
"What is the Prime Minister talking about?"
