During this period, the capital was in a state of panic. After Prince Shun was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, his followers temporarily withdrew, but they secretly colluded and made small moves.

However, Murong Xuanyi is now upset by Yuan Ying's departure and finds it difficult to concentrate on dealing with these potential threats.

He couldn't wait to deal with these people slowly, so recently there have been ministers in the court dying inexplicably, and rumors on the streets were that it was the work of the mysterious assassins from last time.

Murong Xuanyi took advantage of the situation and carefully selected a group of elite masters. He made secret plans and quietly launched an operation to eliminate Emperor Kang Ren's eighteen secret guards.

Afterwards, he found a seemingly reasonable excuse and launched a swift and resolute purge of the remnants of Prince Shun. For a while, they arrested and killed people. He also found out a mistake made by Prime Minister Wei and used this as an excuse to persuade him to retire and return home.

As a result, the entire capital city fell into a state of panic, and everyone was in danger and kept silent.

And because of Murong Xuanyi's swift and decisive iron-blooded approach, Prince Ning and his party all kept their tails between their legs, wishing they could get around him every day. Privately, no one of them was not afraid of the regent's cruel methods. If he were to ascend the throne one day, he would be a tyrant who no one could persuade.

Murong Xuanyi had no scruples at this moment. Yuan Ying's departure seemed to have taken away the softest part of his heart.

In his eyes, everything else in the world has been eclipsed. He only wants to clear the numerous obstacles in the court as quickly as possible so that Murong Xuanzhou can ascend the throne as soon as possible. In this way, he can break free from the shackles of political affairs and go find Yuan Ying.

Yuan Ying had been gone for a whole month and there was no news from him, causing Su Meiniang to sigh all day long in Yuan's mansion. She regretted that her conversation with Hua Qiansong was overheard by Yuan Ying.

She knew that Yuan Ying was a kind-hearted child with a strong sense of self-esteem. He must have chosen to leave quietly because he knew that he was infertile and did not want to implicate Murong Xuanyi. Her heart was full of regret and longing.

After Anyang finished her confinement, she was shocked and confused when she heard the news that Yuan Ying left without saying goodbye. "Brother Ruchi, my fifth sister-in-law and my fifth brother clearly love each other so much, why did he leave without saying goodbye?"

Wei Ruchi hesitated for a moment and then slowly said, "Your fifth brother was injured in the battlefield and cannot have children. Perhaps your fifth sister-in-law couldn't accept the truth after knowing it, which led her to make such a decisive move."

After saying this, he sighed slightly, as if feeling sorry for the couple's fate.

Anyang obviously didn't believe it. She shook her head gently, frowning slightly, with a look of determination and doubt in her eyes. She said, "I know Fifth Sister-in-law. She is definitely not someone who would abandon Fifth Brother because of something like this. There must be other hidden secrets that we don't know yet."

She has known Yuan Ying for a long time and understands her character. Yuan Ying is a woman who values ​​love and friendship, is resolute and determined, and has a delicate mind. She will never abandon the person she loves because of this.

Anyang sighed quietly and said softly, "Fifth brother even missed Xuanyu's wedding. He must be extremely sad. I just hope that Fifth Sister-in-law can return to Fifth Brother as soon as possible."

Wei Ruchi slowly reached out his hand and gently took Anyang's hand. His eyes were full of love and concern, and he said gently, "Madam, don't worry. Your fifth brother is very affectionate and capable. He will definitely do everything he can to find your fifth sister-in-law.

You haven't fully recovered yet, so the most important thing is to rest and recuperate, and don't overwork yourself, or you'll damage your health."

While Murong Xuanyi was dealing with the disputes in the court in the capital, he was anxiously waiting for the news of the search for Yuan Ying. He attacked Shun Wang's followers more fiercely, ruthlessly eliminating all forces that might threaten his plan.

In the court, his majesty made people dare not look directly at him, but whenever he returned to Prince Jing's Mansion and saw the empty courtyard and rooms, his eyes would reveal endless loneliness and pain.
