Ye Zhen and the others finally entered the city.
"This Ding Du City is different from the places we have been on the way here. I don't see so many beggars anymore." Ming Yu sat on the horse and looked around curiously.
"If there are still beggars everywhere under the emperor's feet, then the Dark North Kingdom will really be finished," Shen Luoyang said. "However, there are so many refugees in the Dark North Kingdom. It's really the end of the road."
Ming Yu looked at Ye Zhen next to her. "Mother, where are we going to find my brother?"
"Let's find an inn to stay in first. Mingxi will naturally come looking for us." Ye Zhen whispered. Since she knew that Ming Xi was injured, she had not received any messages from him. It must be because his Qi Sea was injured and his spiritual power was insufficient, so he did not send her any more messages.
"Princess, look." Yan Xiaoliu suddenly pointed at the alley in front of him. There was a person standing in the depths of the alley. That person was tall and straight, but he just stood there quietly, as if he had suffered a blow.
Ye Zhen did not know him and looked at Yan Xiaoliu with some doubts.
Yan Xiaoliu said, "It's Qian Danqing."
He had seen Qian Danqing on the battlefield, so he recognized him.
"It seems that Qian Danqing has returned with Beitang Xuanyang." Ye Zhen looked at Mo Rongzhan. "A Zhan, have you seen Qian Danqing before?"
Mo Rongzhan glanced at the silhouette indifferently. "We've exchanged blows."
"Will the Qian family really support Beitang Xuanyang? Why do I feel like the Qian Family wants to be the emperor themselves? " She didn't have much curiosity about Qian Danqing. She didn't care what would happen to the Beitang Kingdom in the end. Beitang Yu or Beitang Xuanyang, it didn't matter who won.
She only wanted to find Shui Yichen and Ye Wei. What did they find in the underground palace? Was Ye Wei the Blood Demon?
"Zombies cannot rule the Dark North Kingdom," Mo Rongzhan said expressionlessly.
The mortal world had its own rules. The corpse-eating beasts were demon beasts, and they did not understand the mortal world. If Beitang Xuanyang became the emperor of the Dark North Kingdom, then there would be no peace in the Dark North Kingdom. At that time, it would definitely affect the entire world.
Ye Zhen rode close to Mo Rongzhan and whispered, "Let's go to the palace tonight."
Since Ming Xi had encountered blood demons in the palace, then they would go to the palace to investigate.
"Alright." Mo Rongzhan had the same intention, but before that, he had to settle his daughter down and ensure that she wouldn't run around.
They found an inn to stay at. Ye Zhen told Yan Xiaoliu to keep an eye on Ming Yu and not let her be capricious again.
Having experienced it once, Yan Xiaoliu naturally didn't dare to be careless again and hurriedly nodded in agreement.
After Shen Luoyang settled down, she left the inn. She wanted to find out more about Shui Yichen.
At night, the whole city was quiet. Mo Rongzhan and Ye Zhen came to the palace. Probably because of the return of Beitang Yu, the whole palace was now heavily guarded. There were guards standing guard less than 20 meters away, and the imperial army walked back and forth. It was not easy to get close to the harem.
Mo Rongzhan frowned as he looked at the sky above the Imperial Palace. The atmosphere here was different from that of the Jin Kingdom's Imperial Palace. The purple aura that represented the fate of the Emperor was almost gone. It seemed that the Darknorth Kingdom had reached its end. Whether it was Beitang Yu or his two sons, it was difficult for them to support the Darknorth Kingdom.
"The Corpse Devouring Beast is over there." Mo Rongzhan whispered, leading Ye Zhen to the other side. Their movements were agile. Even if they were not invisible, they could still avoid the patrols of the imperial army.
They followed the smell of the Corpse Devouring Beast to the Fengyi Palace.
"How could the Corpse Devouring Beast be here?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise. Beitang Xuanyang was the crown prince. It was impossible for him to live in the Fengyi Palace.
Mo Rongzhan frowned slightly. "Let's go in and have a look."
They walked into the Fengyi Palace. There was a faint smell of blood in the air, and it came from the bedroom.
There was no one in sight, not even a palace maid.
"Beitang Yu …" Ye Zhen looked at the man lying on the bed in surprise. The man was clearly Beitang Yu. At this time, he was lying straight with a dagger stuck in his chest.
"Dead!" Mo Rongzhan said in a deep voice. He walked to the bed and checked Beitang Yu's breath. He turned back and shook his head at Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen asked in shock, "The palace is heavily guarded. Who can come in and kill him?"
"Beitang Xuanyang." Mo Rongzhan said in a deep voice.
"…" Ye Zhen wanted to say, isn't that patricide? But then she remembered that Beitang Xuanyang had been swallowed by the Corpse Devouring Beast and was no longer Beitang Yu's son. It was not surprising that he killed Beitang Yu.
Mo Rongzhan glanced at Beitang Yu faintly. This man was also an ambitious and ruthless man, but now he had such an end.
"Let's go." He believed that someone would soon come to find out the news of Beitang Yu's death.
Tomorrow, the capital city will be lively.
Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan left the Fengyi Palace. Just as they hid, they saw a woman in bright clothes rushing over with a group of people.
"That should be Imperial Consort Qian." Ye Zhen whispered.
"Hmm." Mo Rongzhan looked up at the sky above the Fengyi Palace. The feeling here was a bit like the cold palace of Yuan Country.
Just as she was about to leave the palace, Ye Zhen suddenly stopped and looked back. She saw a red figure. In the night, the woman held a lotus lamp in her hand, illuminating her face.
"Ah Zhan, that's Ye Wei!" Ye Zhen whispered. "She is really here."
Mo Rongzhan squinted at Ye Wei. "Blood demon."
Ye Zhen asked in surprise, "Is she really a blood demon? She wanted to kill Ming Yu. "
"She is a low-level blood demon, incomparable to an ancient blood demon." Mo Rongzhan said.
"But, how could she be here?" Ye Zhen asked. She couldn't see what Ye Wei wanted to do. Since she was a blood demon, she entered the palace to become Shui Yichen's imperial consort. What was she doing in the palace of the Northern Dark Kingdom now?
Ye Wei, who was standing outside the Fengyi Palace, suddenly raised her head and looked in their direction, as if she had noticed that someone was here.
Mo Rongzhan took Ye Zhen's hand and quickly left.
"Can we be Ye Wei's opponents?" Ye Zhen asked. She had never fought with a blood demon and didn't know how powerful a low-level blood demon was.
"She is nothing to be afraid of. It's more important to find the great demon behind her." Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen thought of the huge snakeskin and felt a big stone pressing on her heart. "Hmm."
As they expected, the news of Beitang Yu's death came from the palace that night, but the cause of death was not disclosed. Soon, the cabinet minister entered the palace to draft a decree.
When Empress Wang heard the news, she was silent for a long time.
"Sister …" Wang Congzhi looked at Empress Wang cautiously. He thought that the Empress wanted to see Beitang Yu. As a result, since knowing that Beitang Yu had returned, the Empress had been very calm, as if Beitang Yu had no meaning to her.
"That's good." Empress Wang said lightly, "I have no resentment in my heart."
