Quick Wear: The Villain's Beloved

Lan Qian and Mo Chen stayed in this inn for more than half a month. She fed Mo Chen her blood every day. One of the poisons in Mo Chen's body had been eliminated. As for the other poison, although it could not be completely eliminated, it could be alleviated.

Mo Chen's injuries were almost healed.

During this period, people from all sides came to this town and its surroundings to search, but they failed to find them.

Beijing.

The news of Mo Chen falling off the cliff had already spread throughout the city.

The emperor is missing and his life or death is unknown.

Now, after nearly a month of searching, there is still no news. Most people in the court believe that they are in great danger.

Some people have already made some small moves in private.

"As Your Majesty expected, there are indeed people in the court who are restless. Lord Wang and Lord Zhao are both secretly connected with the remnants of the traitors. Today, someone proposed in the court that since Your Majesty has been missing for many days... the government affairs should be handled by Prince Li."

A secret guard reported respectfully.

The traitors he was talking about were the princes who failed in their fight for the throne and were killed by Mo Chen. There were still some of their people in the court, but they were hiding too deeply. Taking this opportunity, Mo Chen prepared to eliminate them in one fell swoop.

The young emperor stood by the window with one hand behind his back, his tall and straight figure. He exuded an air of absolute nobility. In front of his subordinates, he did not deliberately restrain his imperial dominance.

"How is King Li?"

"Since His Majesty fell off the cliff and disappeared, Prince Li has been claiming to be ill and has not left the palace," the secret guard said respectfully, "Prince Li has no contact with the ministers in the court, and I have not found out any relationship between Prince Li and the assassin."

"Is it."

No emotion can be heard in the flat voice.

But it makes people shudder.

"My subordinates are incompetent!"

The secret guard immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty.

It was not known whether the Prince Li was truly a law-abiding person or he hid himself too well, but they could not find anything unusual at all. Even the servants in the Prince Li's mansion did not see anything wrong.

If the only connection between Prince Li's Mansion and the ministers in the court was that it helped the Taifu family find the second daughter who had been lost for many years, other than that, Prince Li, who had always been frail and sickly, had been staying quietly in the mansion.

The young emperor was silent for a while.

"Go down."

"Yes!"

The secret guard breathed a sigh of relief.

-

[Host, those people have not given up looking for you and the master. Although most people in the capital believe that the master has met with an accident, the male protagonist is very cautious and has never shown up in this matter from beginning to end.]

Little Dumpling is reporting about what happened to the male protagonist.

After listening to this, Lan Qian said calmly:

"The hero has been patient and dormant for so many years, so he is naturally cautious in everything."

[Yes, host,] Xiaotuanzi said, [He is the only prince still alive besides the master. Some people in the court suggested that he take charge of the government, but he refused to leave the palace on the grounds of illness and refused visits from court officials.]

It can be said that avoiding suspicion has been taken to the extreme.

Even if something happens, there's no way to catch him.

"Continue surveillance."

【Good host. 】

……

Two days later, factions emerged in the court.

One group believes that the emperor's life or death is uncertain, and no one can make a decision on major court affairs. Prince Li or a royal relative should be elected to govern the country. The other group believes that the top priority is to send more people to search for the emperor, and everything should be decided after the emperor is found.

And between these two factions, there is a neutral faction.

For example, Taifu.

They did not participate in the debate between the two factions, nor did they contact other court officials privately. They just did their own job every day.

At this time, a rebellion suddenly broke out somewhere.

It is said that those people have the posthumous child of a certain prince, which was escorted out with great difficulty during the previous coup d'état. Under the banner of overthrowing the tyrant and upholding justice, they are preparing to support the posthumous child as emperor.

Now that the emperor has been missing for many days, I'm afraid he is in great danger. The only prince left of the late emperor is the frail and sickly Prince Li, and the imperial physician has long predicted that Prince Li will not live past the age of 25. So, if there really is a posthumous child... it would not be a bad idea.

This matter caused a huge uproar in the court.

In particular, those court officials who believed that Mo Chen was dead had nothing to fear and were ready to send people to bring back their posthumous child.

The blood of the coup d'état that day seemed to have not yet dried, and now there was chaos again. The whole capital was in turmoil and the people were in panic.

The backyard of the inn.

Mo Chen stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back.

Looking out the window, the bright and sunny sky is slowly being covered by dark clouds in the distance, as if the day is about to change.

There was a dark flash in his eyes.

He slowly turned around and extended his hand to Lan Qian who was standing beside him.

"Qianqian, it's time for us to return to Beijing."

Lan Qian smiled and put her hand into his palm.

"it is good."
