Chapter 586 Haitang is gone (she won’t be around for long)

If I can't find my son, wouldn't that be the same as having nothing?

However, the emperor was a very careful person. If his son could not be found by then, he would naturally reward himself with other things. In short, he would not let himself suffer any loss.

I just hope that I can find my son back.

Ever since the year his son was lost, he has been hoping for many years... that his son would be found.

But for so many years, my son never came back.

He had a rough idea in his mind and estimated that Liang'er would not be able to come back.

But... Bai Lu has come back, so is it possible that his son can't come back? !

Bai Lu was so hard to find back then, she was lost in Liangzhou, there was no token at all, but in the end she was found...

Then maybe I can find my daughter, it's just luck.

A small spark of hope was rekindled in Duke Anguo's heart.

He stood up, opened the door and closed the door of the imperial study, hoping only to find his son.

On this trip to Qingzhou, maybe I can ask along the way, or I can also ask around in the nearby prefectures and counties.

......

When General Li was escorted out of the palace by the Crown Prince, he saw the Crown Prince smiling and saying to General Li, "General Li, after you leave the palace, you must take a good rest and don't let me worry about you."

General Li, who was a big and strong man, could not detect any deep meaning in the prince's smile. He just smiled at the prince and said, "In accordance with the order of His Royal Highness, I will rest well after leaving the palace and will not worry Your Majesty and His Royal Highness."

"Also, Your Highness, we are not leaving right now, so why should you let me rest at home now?"

General Murong, who was standing next to him, watched the conversation between General Li and the prince and felt that something was wrong.

He stepped forward and hurriedly said to the Crown Prince on behalf of General Li: "Your Highness, Old Li is a rough man and has always been casual in the army. If I have offended Your Highness in any way, I hope Your Highness will not bear a grudge. It was all an unintentional mistake."

"When the time comes, we will take General Li to the doorstep of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make amends."

"..."

Hearing this, the prince smiled, patted General Murong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "General Murong, this is too much."

But seeing General Murong like this, the prince didn't say anything else.

General Murong must be 100% loyal, because Bai Lu had already tested General Murong before, and General Murong is now Bai Qingze's father-in-law, a military general who is firmly tied to their Xu family. General Murong is one of their own.

However, General Murong probably didn't think there was anything abnormal about General Li at this moment.

Yes, this General Li really pretended to be very convincing. His silly look fooled everyone, including General Murong and himself.

"..."

Seeing General Murong and General Li in front, General Shi walked over with steady steps.

He smiled at them and said, "You are all ahead here, why don't we go home together."

"Okay."

General Murong nodded, and General Li also nodded.

At this time, General Li did not forget to instruct General Shi: "We must inform General Zhou about today's business later."

"General Zhou went to train outside the camp two days ago and has not returned yet."

"We have to wait until he finishes training his troops in the Western Suburbs Camp. We should quickly tell Zhou Langya about this matter. His Majesty may even have some instructions for General Zhou."

Several generals were discussing this matter, their armor covered in golden light, their backs stretched out in the afterglow of the setting sun.

The prince looked at the backs of the generals, his face gradually darkened, and his eyes were filled with gloom.

I do have some doubts about this General Li...I'll have to investigate it carefully later.

The longer you delay dealing with Haitang in the East Palace, the more likely it is to cause trouble. You can’t delay any longer.

The prince pondered for a while, and without saying a word to the guards and palace maids beside him, he immediately turned around and went to the East Palace.

I have to interrogate Haitang quickly! Otherwise, there will be more trouble!

As soon as he arrived at the Eastern Palace, the prince heard the bad news - Haitang was missing.

"????"

Prince: (???;)

What the hell!

I tried my best but still failed to catch up???

The prince suddenly rushed into the room surrounded by secret guards. They all knelt down in unison and kowtowed to the prince: "Your Highness!"

The prince's face was gloomy, almost dripping with tears: "Who rescued Haitang?"

A secret guard said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is atoning for his sins, we don't know about it, it's not intentional..."

"This happened like this. Not long after you left, we interrogated Haitang. She refused to confess and fainted during the interrogation... We thought she was pretending, so we poured several buckets of cold water on her, but she didn't wake up. She lay motionless like a dead fish. We thought something was wrong, so we rushed over to check. After a long time, we found that Haitang was completely dead, not fainted."

"We were all panicked at the time. After all, Your Highness the Crown Prince asked us to interrogate Haitang and get some information out of her, but not to let her die. We thought that if Haitang died like this, Your Highness the Crown Prince would definitely blame us, so we planned to go downstairs to find the imperial physician to see if he could come and save her..."

"result......"

"As a result, Haitang disappeared."

"???"

"!!!"

When the prince heard this, he was furious: "You mean, she disappeared right under your noses?!"

"Even now! You don't even know whether Haitang is dead or alive!"

"Even now! You still don't know whether she ran away on her own! Or someone rescued her!"

"Ten secret guards, can't you keep an eye on her?"

"No, Your Highness."

The secret guards in front hurriedly explained, "Your Highness, this matter is very strange. Haitang disappeared suddenly. This matter is really too strange and scary. Because there are five secret guards watching her here, but in the instant when we turned around at the same time, she disappeared when we turned our heads again..."

"It's just a moment, just a split second!"

"Your Highness, please understand!"

The prince was puzzled. "So what you mean is... suddenly she saw a ghost? She disappeared in just a moment?"

"Even if someone else took her away, it's impossible for her to disappear in such a short time."
