Ming Xi helped Empress Wang change her appearance. The originally dignified and beautiful Empress Wang became an unremarkable servant. Just as they were about to leave the inn, Fire Phoenix brought Wang Congzhi back.
Wang Congzhi had disguised himself as an old man today, so when he saw the woman behind Shang'er, he immediately knew who she was.
"Where are you going?" Wang Congzhi asked.
"Staying in an inn for long isn't a solution. Let's find a residence to stay in," Ming Xi said in a low voice.
Wang Congzhi did not object and nodded solemnly. "Okay."
There were officers and soldiers everywhere in Dingdu city. The Qian family had not given up on looking for Empress Wang. Moreover, Beitang Yu had returned and he wanted to find Empress Wang even more.
"The city gate is still sealed. We can't get out," Wang Congzhi said. "Where are we going to stay?"
"Follow me." Empress Wang said in a low voice and led them to the south. On the busy street, Empress Wang entered a shop that sold groceries. She took a seal and showed it to the shopkeeper, then walked to the back of the shop.
After a few turns, there was actually a courtyard with two entrances. If Empress Wang did not lead the way, they would never be able to find their way into this house.
"You can stay here for the time being. I'm not afraid that someone will search here." Whether it was the Qian Family or Beitang Yu, no one knew that she had this place.
"Eldest Sister, when did you prepare this place?" Empress Wang glanced at him. "A long time ago."
Ming Xi looked around and felt that this was indeed a good place. People outside would never imagine that there was such a large courtyard behind the shop.
"Xu Jinbei and the others don't know this place. Huo 'er, go outside and bring them in," Ming Xi said to Fire Phoenix. "I sent them to find Shen Yi."
"I'll go right away." Fire Phoenix said.
Ming Xi clutched at his dantian and took a deep breath. Although Little Rou had given him spiritual energy and he had eaten a Spirit Concentration Pill, forcefully circulating his Qi Sea last night had caused his injuries to be too severe. Just now, when he had unconsciously tried to use spiritual energy, his Qi Sea had immediately begun to hurt.
"Are you alright?" Shang'er asked nervously. She would be able to sense any slight discomfort from Ming Xi.
"I'm fine." Ming Xi smiled at her.
Shang'er took out a Qi Deposition Pill from her bosom. "Eat this first."
Lin Yanbei saw this from the side and couldn't help but be curious about the medicine in Shang'er's hands. Was this a miracle medicine that could cure Ming Xi's injuries? He was really curious. Last night, Ming Xi's injuries were so severe, but today, it was as if nothing had happened.
"Cong Zhi, what did you find out?" Queen Wang asked in a low voice.
"After the Emperor returned, he stabbed Qian Shiming, but …" Wang Congzhi took a deep breath. "Qian Xiyu has already taken control of the cabinet. The Emperor can't see the cabinet ministers at all. Right now, he's practically under house arrest in the palace. This morning, almost none of the court officials knew that the Emperor had returned."
When Empress Wang heard the news, she was not surprised, "It's impossible for Qian Xiyu to let Beitang Yu attend morning court."
"Does the Qian Family want to usurp the throne?" Lin Yanbei asked. They even dared to put the emperor under house arrest.
"Before Beitang Xuanyang returns, Qian Family will not let Beitang Yu appear." Empress Wang lightly said.
Ming Xi glanced at Empress Wang, "Do you want to save Beitang Yu?"
When Empress Wang heard this, she was silent for a moment. Did she want to save Beitang Yu? If it was in the past, there was no doubt about the answer. He was her husband, her lord. No matter what she did, she must save him.
But, how did Beitang Yu treat her? He was heartless and did not care about their past relationship at all. He clearly knew that it was the Qian Family who had deliberately harmed her son, causing her son to be unable to walk. Not only did he casually let go of this matter, he even made the Second Prince the Crown Prince.
It was as if her son was an insignificant existence.
He could be heartless to her, but he could not treat her son like that.
How could Empress Wang not have any resentment in her heart?
Wang Family's ending today, did it not have anything to do with Beitang Yu? It was him who allowed Qian Family to suppress Wang Family. It was him who thought that Wang Family threatened his position. It was him who thought that her existence was an obstacle. All of this was caused by him.
If anything happened to her son, she would not let Beitang Yu off.
"Qian Family will definitely guard the Imperial Palace tightly. We cannot save the Emperor. If possible, can you help me find my son first?" Empress Wang said.
Ming Xi understood. In this woman's heart, there was no one more important than Beitang Xuan Wei.
"Then we will wait and see. As for the Crown Prince, I will send someone to find him." Ming Xi said.
Empress Wang nodded gratefully.
"Big Sister, Father and Mother have already been settled. I think … … there is no need to bring them back." Wang Congzhi said in a low voice. Although he hoped for his family to be reunited, with the way of the world now, perhaps it would be the safest for the Wang Family to hide elsewhere.
"Don't go find them. As long as Qian Family is still in Ding Capital City, our Wang Family should not appear." Empress Wang said. As for revenge, she was enough.
Wang Congzhi had always admired Empress Wang. Naturally, he would do whatever Empress Wang said.
Not long later, Fire Phoenix and Xu Jinbei returned. Shen Yi also came along.
"Young Master Ming Xi." Shen Yi bowed to Ming Xi, "Why are you here? I heard you were injured? "
"It's just a small injury. It's not a big deal." Ming Xi said with a smile, "Did Lord Shen escort Beitang Yu back?"
Shen Yi said, "Yes. If it wasn't for the Emperor's foresight, Beitang Yu wouldn't have been able to return to Ding Capital City. I originally planned to return to the palace a few days later. I don't know how I was discovered last night."
"Last night, those people wanted to find us." Ming Xi said, "On the way here, did Lord Shen hear any news about Beitang Xuan Wei?"
"I guessed it." Shen Yi said that he heard that Empress Wang had gone missing. It must have something to do with Ming Xi, "On the way here, I heard that Beitang Xuan Wei had gone missing. Thus, I sent others to investigate. Beitang Xuan Wei wasn't taken away by wild beasts. Instead, something happened to him in Canghai City."
Empress Wang didn't care that she was in disguise as she blurted out anxiously, "What happened to him?"
Shen Yi glanced at this woman and guessed her identity, "He encountered assassins in the river and the boat sank."
"What?" Empress Wang's expression changed, "Xuan Wei doesn't know how to swim."
"At that time, a fishing boat happened to pass by. I heard that he was rescued, but …" Shen Yi frowned, "We haven't found out where he was rescued to. There are too many fishing villages in the lower reaches of White Dragon River."
Empress Wang's mood rose and fell. She was so scared that her face turned pale. But when she heard that her son might have been rescued, her hope was reignited.
"If you find Beitang Xuan Wei, bring him here immediately." Ming Xi said in a low voice.
Shen Yi responded, "Don't worry, Young Master Ming Xi."
