Quick Wear: The Villain's Beloved
Chapter 568: The Tyrant’s Favored Demon Queen (43)
royal palace.
"Your Majesty, Prince Li and his followers have all been captured, but on the way back to the capital, Prince Li accidentally escaped," the secret guard knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Xia Ruyan has not been found yet."
All the forces under her command had been wiped out, but that woman was so good at hiding that even their secret guards couldn't find her.
"He escaped?"
Mo Chen's tone was calm and he sounded emotionless, but the secret guard felt an invisible and powerful pressure all around him. He tried his best to remain calm, not daring to look up, and lowered his head to apologize:
"I failed in my duty. Your Majesty, please punish me."
"Go down and get ..."
"Mo Chen," before Mo Chen said anything about punishing the secret guards, Lan Qian went to hold his hand and advised, "King Li has been operating for many years, I'm sure he won't give up so easily, he will show up again next time."
After all, they are the male and female protagonists, they won’t be caught so easily.
It’s not the fault of these secret guards.
"You go down first," she said to the secret guard, "continue to search for Prince Li and Xia Ruyan, and make sure they are brought to justice."
"Yes, I am resigning."
The secret guard said respectfully, and withdrew directly without waiting for Mo Chen's order. After all, he knew that the Queen's words were the words of His Majesty, and sometimes they were even more effective than His Majesty's words.
"Qianqian..." After the secret guards left, Mo Chen reached out and held the girl in his arms. He seemed a little dissatisfied and said, "You have paid more attention to them than me recently. I am not happy."
Indeed, both of them deserved to die.
He thought darkly.
Once we catch them, we'll kill them immediately.
"How can they compare with you?" Lan Qian smiled helplessly. She didn't expect him to be jealous. "Catch them as soon as possible so that we can have peace in the future. You are the only one I care about."
She took the initiative to kiss him to comfort him.
"Then kiss me again."
He pushed further.
"Good~"
Lan Qian had no choice but to kiss him again, but this time the man took the opportunity to hold her head back and deepened the kiss.
After an unknown amount of time, Mo Chen finally kissed enough and let her go, watching the girl limp in his arms, her lips as red as if moistened by water, and her delicate little face also stained red.
His eyes darkened a little.
Looking at that deep gaze, Lan Qian quickly held his hand: "It's still early, and you have things to do."
Because of the palace banquet, it was revealed that Prince Li was planning a rebellion and a group of people were arrested in the court. With such a big incident, the remaining ministers were not only panic-stricken, but also felt uneasy, as there were many things waiting for him to deal with.
Hearing this, Mo Chen was helpless.
I could only gently scratch the tip of her nose.
"Okay, I'll go take care of other things first."
……
There is solid evidence that Prince Li was plotting a rebellion this time. Although he was suppressed before he even started, the things he did privately, such as training assassins, collecting intelligence, secretly recruiting soldiers, etc., have made his ambitions obvious.
He has done a lot of things in secret over the years, and even when His Majesty was assassinated and fell off a cliff, it was found out that the person behind it was Prince Li.
The ministers were shocked by this.
After all, who could have thought that Prince Li, who had always been frail and sickly and was predicted not to live past the age of 25, could have disguised himself for so many years.
Another person who shocked everyone was Xia Ruyan.
Unexpectedly, she conspired with Prince Li to rebel.
In this regard, everyone looked at Prime Minister Xia. Prime Minister Xia had been loyal all his life, but he had no way to refute this matter and could only apologize to His Majesty. Fortunately, His Majesty took into account the Prime Minister's hard work and great contributions and did not implicate the Prime Minister's Mansion.
At this moment in the court, all the ministers were trembling with fear.
No one dared to look at the young emperor at the top.
"If there is something going on, go ahead and leave if there is nothing going on!"
Eunuch An shouted in a shrill voice as usual.
But today, not a single minister came out to report on business. The entire hall was extremely quiet. Some people had already noticed that there were fewer people around them. Those colleagues who had attended court with them yesterday were nowhere to be found today.
Some perceptive ministers have already noticed that the disappearance of those colleagues should be related to Prince Li's rebellion.
I'm afraid this capital city will be flooded with blood again.
"Since there is nothing else to do, let's leave the court."
The emperor's cold voice came from above.
The ministers were shocked and knelt down immediately:
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
When they finally dared to raise their heads, the young emperor had already left.
Everyone then dared to stand up. Although His Majesty had not mentioned how to deal with Prince Li, nor those missing ministers, almost every minister present was sweating coldly.
Especially Master Lan.
He knew all too well why those colleagues disappeared.
But he was not sure whether His Majesty had found out about his relationship with Prince Li, or whether it was because of the Queen in the palace...
"Master Taifu? Master Taifu?"
"Ah? Lord Li."
The Grand Tutor didn't know what he was thinking. He seemed frightened when he was suddenly called. Lord Li looked at him strangely, but didn't think much about it. He just asked quietly:
"Did the Grand Tutor see anything in the court today?" He looked around cautiously. Seeing that no one noticed them, he lowered his voice again and asked, "Is it related to Prince Li's rebellion?"
"Master Li, you cannot make irresponsible remarks!"
Master Lan said hurriedly. He looked to the side carefully before saying, "How can we speculate about Prince Li's affairs?"
"Then the Queen..."
Lord Li wanted to find out more information, after all, the queen's favor was well known, but Master Lan interrupted him: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. I have something else to do at home, so I'll take my leave first."
After saying this, he left in a hurry.
When he returned to the Lan Mansion anxiously, he heard a servant report that a guest who claimed to be a long-time friend had come to the mansion.
Suddenly, he felt more and more uneasy.
He sent the servant away and went alone to meet the so-called guest, who was wearing a black cloak and standing with his back to him.
"Who is your Excellency?"
The visitor turned around slowly.
"It's been a long time since we last met, Master Taifu."
