Chapter 204 I asked someone to follow me
When Lin Mu heard that Liu Zhiyuan had left, he said to Mu Ruixi and Zhang Shuhe, "Lotus was taken away by Wu Zhao, the Prime Minister of Yue."
Zhang Shuhe was stunned. "How did Wu Zhao take her away? Wasn't He Hua with us?"
Mu Ruixi did not answer. Seeing that Lin Muwen was unable to speak, she just nodded and shook her head. Zhang Shuhe was the only person she could talk to, and she felt very uncomfortable.
"Later, she couldn't find us. Yuecheng was blocked again, so she went out to look for us. Unexpectedly, she was found by Wu Zhao and others and was captured directly." Lin Muwen said in his heart.
Mu Ruixi's eyebrows were also twisted into a ball. She had previously learned from the dead insects that the lotus had been stolen. Now that Lin Muwen heard about it, she couldn't help but worry about the lotus. After all, no one could guarantee whether Wu Zhao would torture the lotus.
Zhang Shuhe asked anxiously, "What should we do now? Should we go straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion and rescue them? I'm afraid it will be difficult."
Lin Muwen shook his head and said to Mu Ruixi, "We can't just rush into the Prime Minister's Mansion. They have the lotus and must have made some preparations. There will also be many powerful people in the Prime Minister's Mansion. We won't have time to rescue them."
Mu Ruixi really wanted to tell her that if she could not talk to this damn bug for three days, she would definitely cure her.
"Mu Ruixi, can you think of a good idea? The lotus has been taken away and we are likely to be discovered." Zhang Shuhe looked at Mu Ruixi.
Mu Ruixi didn't know what to do. She frowned and said, "There's no better way for now, but we have to find Wu Zhao's residence. If there's really no other way, we can only force our way in."
Lin Muwen nodded and said, "I have sent Xingqi to investigate this matter, and I believe there will be results soon."
"Knock knock!" He uttered two words.
Zhang Shuhe asked in surprise, "Who is it?"
"Come in." Lin Muwen said lightly without standing up.
Hua Manyue walked over slowly and said, "I don't know what you are doing. You are so badly injured. Please don't let us get involved."
Lin Mu raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Zhang Shuhe and Mu Ruixi beside him were also stunned. Could it be that Xing Qi was beaten up?
Looking at Hua Yue's grim expression, Lin Muwen said apologetically, "It was our people who were impulsive this time. This kind of thing will never happen again."
Hua Manyue nodded and winked at Mu Ruixi. Mu Ruixi quickly gave her an apologetic look, "I don't want this to happen to you."
"Of course."
After Hua Manyue left, she took Lin Muwen and others to Xingqi's residence, where he was most seriously injured.
Xingqi was wrapped in bandages, lying on the hospital bed. Seeing Mu Ruixi and the others, he endured the pain and tried to stand up: "Young Master..."
Lin Muwen quickly grabbed him and said, "Don't move. Let's talk it over. What's going on? I just want you to find out."
Xing Qi said with some shame: "I have betrayed the young master's trust. I originally wanted to sneak into the mansion to see if there were any powerful people. I didn't expect to be targeted as soon as I entered. Those two people were very powerful. I escaped but was seriously injured."
"Really? I know how powerful you are. Being able to find you in such a short time means there must be a lot of strong people here." Lin Muwen raised his eyebrows.
He never imagined that a small prime minister's residence would become a den of dragons and tigers.
Mu Ruixi and Zhang Shuhe's faces turned ugly after Xingqi said this, and it was difficult for them to hold on any longer.
Inside the palace of Yuecheng.
Zheng Hongyu sat in the imperial study and scolded the three generals who were kneeling on the ground.
"Hmph, I'm quite curious. It's been three days, why is there still no movement from them!" Zheng Hongyu said with a sneer.
The three people in front of Zheng Hongyu were the leader of the imperial guards, Li Jun, the Tianji Guard of Yuecheng, and He Jie.
The three of them have been searching the entire city these days. Zheng Hongyu has instructed that even if they have to search the entire Yuecheng, they must find Mu Ruixi and others.
"Your Majesty, we have searched all the houses and shops during this period and have found nothing. We can be sure that they are within the city."
"Really? So, there are spies in Moon City?"
He Jie and Li Jun also nodded and said, "That's right. Otherwise, how could they have escaped our search? They must have been protected by someone."
Zheng Hongyu's face was gloomy and uncertain. Ever since he lost the artifact, Zheng Hongyu has been in extreme irritability and restlessness.
Wu Qi sighed and said in a deep voice, "I don't care who they are. If I find out, I will wipe out their entire clan!"
"Yes!" he nodded.
"Who do you think is the most suspicious? I think you already have a suspect." Zheng Hongyu glanced at the three people coldly.
The three of them shuddered and quickly replied, "There are many suspects, but three of them are the most suspicious."
"Which three?"
"Right now, Grand Tutor Wang and Prime Minister Li are both in the capital's romantic places."
Zheng Hongyu looked thoughtful.
"Qingyuan is our back garden. No one should disturb it unless there is definite news." Zheng Hongyu ordered.
After hearing what Zheng Hongyu said, the three of them were all confused, but more of them were surprised. It was just a small brothel, but it could make the emperor so wary.
Zheng Hongyu noticed their confusion and reminded them, "The Love Garden is not what you think. It's better for us to go there less often."
"Yes!" the three answered in unison.
At this time, He Jie looked at Zheng Hongyu and said, "Yesterday morning, we saw Prime Minister Wu Zhao's men leaving with a woman, but Prime Minister Li's men flatly denied it."
"Really?" Zheng Hongyu's eyes flashed, and he looked at Gu Ning curiously.
"I don't know about that. I only know that someone broke into the Prime Minister's residence last night and had a fight with him. Later, that person was beaten away." He Jie answered cautiously.
"Waste!" Zheng Hongyu snorted coldly, "Get someone to find him right away."
"Well, I had someone follow me."
"Wang Yi and Wu Zhao, keep a close eye on them. If anything seems amiss, notify me immediately and leave."
"Look! I'll leave first." Kuangfeng and others left in a hurry.
……
He Hua was imprisoned in a room by Wu Zhao's men. When Wu Zhao's men saw He Hua looking for someone, they became suspicious and approached her to question her. He Hua's innocent look immediately exposed her true identity and she was then caught by Wu Zhao's men.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, Wu Zhao was overjoyed. If he could find the enemy's traitor in the Moon Temple, it would be a great achievement.
