The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 137: Urgent, Urgent, the Night Palace Carriage Has Left the City

The emperor sat down, picked up the brush and rewrote the imperial edict. As he wrote, he thought about how to ensure that Ye Xiaohan released Doctor Wu.

His shrewd eyes narrowed, it seemed that he had to take some necessary measures!

Afterwards, the emperor rolled up the imperial edict, picked up a long box at random from the bookshelf, and put the imperial edict in it.

He warned: "Be careful, don't make any mistakes this time."

Eunuch Li nodded solemnly.

"Your Majesty, there will be no accidents this time. I will definitely keep the imperial edict in good care."

"Well, go quickly and come back soon." The emperor was still a little worried, and added: "I will send another imperial guard to Yefu at that time."

Eunuch Li's dull eyes brightened up, "I obey your order."

Very good!

With the support of the Imperial Guards, it became easier for them to invite Doctor Wu.

Eunuch Li stood up, took the long box with both hands, and bowed: "I will go right away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a slightly sharp voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Chief Geng and Captain Zhao are here to report an important event."

"Quickly call them in."

Geng Wa and Zhao Guang walked in quickly, and both of them knelt down to pay respect to the emperor: "Your Majesty, your subordinates pay their respects to you."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Stand up."

His right eyelid twitched, and he had a bad feeling. If Geng Wa and Zhao Guang didn't have something urgent, they wouldn't be in such a hurry to find him.

"What happened?"

Geng Wa and Zhao Guang stood up, and they both glanced at the imperial edict in Eunuch Li's hand.

Geng Wa bowed and said, "Your Majesty, an official from the west of the city reported that a carriage was leaving the city gate, and in the carriage were a father and son, both wearing veils. The official wanted to check their identities, but the driver suddenly showed the badge of the Ye Mansion, saying that this was a carriage of the Ye Mansion, and that the Ye Mansion was escorting guests out, and that they should not go forward to disturb the guests."

The emperor was immediately alarmed.

This carriage did not have the Yefu logo on it. When the official wanted to check the passengers, the driver showed the Yefu waist badge. There were two other people in the carriage, and Doctor Wu and his daughter happened to be one of them.

This shows that the Yefu wanted to send the people away quietly, so they did not use the carriage with the Yefu logo at the beginning. When the officials came to intercept, the driver had to reveal his identity in order to avoid the routine inspection at the city gate.

The two people in the carriage are most likely Doctor Wu and his daughter!

"Heh," the emperor sneered, "It turns out that Ye Xiaohan really invited Doctor Wu and his daughter. Under my nose, Ye Xiaohan wanted to secretly send them away."

After the emperor ordered Eunuch Li to leave the palace in the morning, he thought of the possibility that Ye Xiaohan would refuse to accept the order, so he specifically gave an order to the officer guarding the city gate: a group of envoys from Nantai will arrive in the near future. In order to ensure the security and stability of the capital, the identity of anyone entering or leaving the city gate must be checked.

In addition, he later ordered people to make rubbings of the images of Doctor Wu and his daughter, and asked the gatekeepers guarding the city to pay special attention to people who looked like the people in the portraits.

The emperor frowned and said, "The official let him go, didn't he?"

Geng Wa bowed his head and admitted, "Yes, the officials did not dare to conflict with the people in Ye Mansion. In addition, the images of Wu Shenyi and his daughter had not been copied yet, so they did not know what they looked like. The two people in the car were also dressed as men."

The emperor's head began to hurt. He knew that the officials could not stop Ye Mansion's carriage.

The late emperor doted on Ye Xiaohan the most and made many special exceptions for him, such as he did not have to pay a visit to anyone, did not need to kneel when receiving an imperial edict, and the court officials and the army were not allowed to investigate the whereabouts of Ye Mansion without reason, etc.

Therefore, even though the emperor specially arranged for officials to carefully check the people entering and leaving the city gate, no one could conduct a sudden inspection and stop the carriage of the night palace without reason.

"Why would Ye Xiaohan send Doctor Wu and his daughter away at this very moment? Did we leak the news?"

The Emperor suddenly found out that Divine Doctor Wu and his daughter were most likely in the Ye Mansion, and he immediately issued an order to invite Divine Doctor Wu and his daughter to the palace. Ye Xiaohan should not have known the whereabouts of the Emperor and others in advance, so naturally it was impossible for him to arrange for Divine Doctor Wu and his daughter to leave the capital early.

Geng Wa, Zhao Guang and Eunuch Li lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Zhao Guang whispered, "The possibility of it leaking out is not that high. Maybe the Night King didn't want to keep Doctor Wu and his daughter, so he just sent them away."

Zhao Guang thought: The noise made by Eunuch Li's crazy horse was quite loud, and it might have been noticed by the people in the Ye Mansion. Of course, the Ye King was powerful, and it was possible that he noticed the emperor's arrest in advance.

However, he didn't dare say this out loud, fearing that the emperor would blame them and scold them for being useless.

The emperor stood up suddenly and asked, "How long has the night palace carriage been gone?"

Geng Wa answered carefully: "So far, it has been about half an hour."

Even though the emperor's information network is well-informed, it takes some time for news to be transmitted from the city gate to the center of the capital, during which time the relevant officials have to report the news layer by layer, and finally reach the emperor.

The emperor was angry, "Have you sent anyone to track him down?"

"Soon after the Night Palace carriage left the city gate, a small team of secret guards followed them from a distance."

"Okay, send more people and make sure to successfully bring back Doctor Wu and his daughter."

Eunuch Li's expression was a little stiff. He held the imperial edict in his hands, not knowing what to do. "Your Majesty, what should we do with this imperial edict?"

The emperor glared at Eunuch Li in anger, "He's not in the Ye Mansion anymore, what do you need this thing for?"

Eunuch Li shrank his neck in fear and trembled, "Your Majesty, please calm down. It is my fault that I am too stupid!"

Zhao Guang knew that the emperor was angry, but he had more important news to report. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

The emperor casually snatched the box from Eunuch Li's hand and threw it out with a clang. The imperial edict in the box was thrown out and rolled a short distance before it was spread out.

He turned to look at Zhao Guang and asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter? I hope it's not bad news again."

Zhao Guang replied, "Your Majesty, it's good news! We have found the traces of the Nantai people who wiped out a group of our assassins last time!"

The emperor raised an eyebrow: "Speak!"

"Your Majesty, before this, a pair of men in black killed our assassins, and we found the bracelet of the Nantai people on their escape route."

Zhao Guang had a faint look of joy on his face, and continued, "We have now found some information about their hiding places. There are traces of Nantai people living in the deep mountains and old forests in the eastern suburbs of the capital."

The emperor's expression calmed down a little. He took a few steps and returned to the table.

"Well... it's good news. The people of Nantai are really insidious. They worked with my death squad to assassinate Ye Xiaohan, but now they are destroying the bridge after crossing the river. I will never let them go!"

The emperor looked dignified and sat down domineeringly.

His voice was powerful and strong: "In an emergency, we must make decisions based on our urgency. We must give priority to dealing with the Nantai team. Zhao Guang, take a team of secret guards and a group of imperial guards to the forests in the eastern suburbs to track down the Nantai people. If necessary, kill them all!"

The emperor looked at Geng Wa again, his expression dignified. "Geng Wa, assist Zhao Guang when necessary."

The Nantai matter is the most important at the moment. The matter of Doctor Wu cannot be compared with the Nantai matter.
