Chapter 106: Isn’t the death of two brothers enough to alert you?
The dungeon was still quiet, everyone was lying in a crooked pile, and the guards were replaced by Ji Xiaohan's men.
Seeing them return safely, He Bo came forward with a smile, "The master and the princess are back."
Ji Xiaohan carried Su Wanyan to the makeshift bed in the dungeon and whispered to her, "It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
They barely slept the entire night. He was fine, but the little princess was frail and couldn't get tired.
Su Wanyan returned to the dungeon. Her tense expression relaxed, and she felt a little sleepy. She nodded, "Okay, I'll take a nap then."
After watching Su Wanyan fall asleep, Ji Xiaohan stood up and stood there with his hands behind his back. Xiao Yi and Xiao Er immediately came forward and brought up the medicine that had been prepared in advance. "Master."
Ji Xiaohan finished the medicine in one gulp, ignoring the bitter taste after taking it, and asked, "Have you found out everything?"
Xiao Er nodded and replied, "Yes, we have arranged for the secret guards to sneak back in batches. The latest news has been coming from the palace non-stop. The dog emperor's palace has been completely emptied. Our Xiao Palace has left him with only an empty house, and we haven't seized any valuable treasures. The plan we planned for so long has been thwarted. I am so angry that I haven't attended court for many days."
Xiao Yi replied, "Master, this time not only has the belongings of our Xiao Palace disappeared, but also the Su Palace and the residences of other noble families have suffered. Even if the dog emperor wanted to conduct a thorough investigation, he would have no idea where to start."
Ji Xiaohan's pupils shrank slightly, "Well, since we have no way to investigate, we might as well point them in a direction, such as the Crown Prince's."
Xiao Yi and Xiao Er looked at each other and said, "Yes, I will do it right away."
Watching those dogs biting each other, it must be a good show. The dog emperor even has to be on guard against their master, let alone the prince who is older than the master?
The prince's mother is the current queen, and the queen's mother's family is powerful enough to make the dog emperor wary. If so many bizarre things happening in the imperial city are related to them, I'm afraid the dog emperor will not only be so angry that he will suspend court, but he will probably be so angry that he will want to depose the queen and the prince, right?
The drug that Ji Xiaohan and his group used this time had a very long-lasting effect. Even when Shu Mingyuan and his group came to take the people away, those people were still not fully awake.
Shu Mingyuan saw that even the jailers looked listless, while the people in Prince Xiao's Mansion were all in high spirits. What could he not understand?
He made up a random excuse and woke them up forcibly, as if someone was chasing them, urging them to get on the road quickly.
Only after finally leaving Jinzhou City did Shu Mingyuan breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing this, the officers couldn't help but whisper, "Boss, isn't it just someone tampering with it? Are you so scared?"
Shu Mingyuan glared at his naive subordinates, and said with some disapproval: "You fools, don't you understand the situation at this time?"
The officers looked at each other and asked in unison, "What do you understand?"
Shu Mingyuan felt his forehead throbbing. "Do you know how dangerous our escort mission is? Isn't the death of two brothers enough to alert you?"
The officers' expressions suddenly turned grim. "Boss, are you saying that our two dead brothers are related to... to King Xiao and the others?"
