Both worlds are like dreams

Chapter 198 Emergency Call

Xue Huang slept soundly and dreamlessly until dawn, but was awakened by the noisy noise outside.

Xiao Ling'er was quicker than her and had already opened the tent and went out, but she came in immediately with a strange look on her face.

"What happened?"

"It's the Black Armor Army."

Xue Huang frowned, "Mo Yunchen's army?"

"There are so many of them, and they have arrived so early. I'm afraid they are here with bad intentions."

Xue Huang quickly dressed and got out of bed, "Hurry and leave from the back. Don't let them catch you."

Xiao Linger nodded and cut a hole in the tent behind her, which led directly to the depths of the forest. As she left, she reminded Xue Huang, "Be careful."

"Do not worry."

Xue Huang watched her figure disappear, then quickly hung her taken-off clothes on the rack to block the gap.

I don't know if it will work, but at least it can delay the time.

If Xiao Ling'er fell into Mo Yunchen's hands, it would be like holding Xu Yao in her hands. Moreover, she was a wanted person because she participated in the kidnapping of the second prince. If she was found with them again, Mo Ruilin and Gu Qinglan would probably be convicted of colluding with a rebel party.

After doing all this, she hurried out, and as soon as she opened the curtain, she found that their camp was almost surrounded by the black-armored army.

She vaguely heard Murilan talking to them, so she went in their direction.

Not only Mo Yunchen came, but also Shen Shaohui. And it was Shen Shaohui who spoke, "According to His Majesty's order, bring the Fifth Prince and Princess Changle into the palace immediately. If you don't obey, you will be punished for disobeying the emperor's order."

Mo Ruilin frowned slightly. "This is a critical moment for building the dam. Could you please tell me why the emperor is so anxious to summon us?"

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I don't know the reason either. Please ask Your Highness and the princess to come to the palace to meet His Majesty and we can discuss it." Shen Shaohui replied.

At this time, Mo Yunchen made a gesture to Duan Yun behind him, and he immediately led his men to search the entire camp.

Mo Ruilin's expression was slightly cold, "What does this mean?"

Mo Yunchen explained indifferently, "I heard that the fifth prince was assassinated by thieves. I am conducting a search in accordance with your majesty's order to ensure the safety of the fifth prince."

"King Han Xi is thoughtful." Mo Ruilin replied with a forced smile.

Xue Huang walked over slowly, "Fifth brother, but His Majesty wants to summon you and me back to the palace?"

Gu Qinglan came over to support her quickly, his eyes full of worry. He knew that Mo Yunchen and Shen Shaohui had come with bad intentions, and this summons was definitely not that simple.

Xue Huang patted his hands to comfort him. She had the golden medal of immunity from death in her hand, so there would not be any big problem.

"Greetings, Princess Changle." Shen Shaohui bowed, and there seemed to be a hint of pride in his smile.

Mo Yunchen just stood there indifferently, his deep eyes fixed on her slightly pale face.

Xue Huang didn't bother to pay attention to him. She just looked at Mo Ruilin, who frowned slightly. "In this case, let's go back to Shangyang City."

She nodded, "So what about here?"

Mo Ruilin looked at Gu Qinglan, "Qinglan, I'll leave this to you and Brother Wei."

Gu Qinglan looked worried and looked at them anxiously.

"Don't worry," Xue Huang smiled. "We are relieved to leave the things here to you and Second Uncle. As for Fifth Brother, no one can touch him with me here."

"I will deal with things here as soon as possible, and then return to the city to find you."

Xue Huang nodded and glanced at Wei Yunzhou. When their eyes met, Wei Yunzhou understood what she meant. He nodded again, his eyes were cold but serious, which made Xue Huang feel very relieved.

She knew that with him around, he would be able to protect Gu Qinglan and properly resolve the issues here.

After Mo Yunchen's army searched around and found nothing, they had to give up.

Xue Huang and Mo Ruilin left with them. Considering that the two of them were not prisoners at the moment and Xue Huang was still injured, she was humane enough to arrange a carriage for them.

Therefore, the speed of returning to the city slowed down, and it was already dark when we arrived at Shangyang City.

Mo Yunchen did not bring them into the palace to meet the emperor, but took them to a side hall and imprisoned them separately.

When they were in the carriage, Xue Huang and Mo Ruilin analyzed that Shen Congfeng and the others must be causing trouble again. The reason they were called back in such a hurry was probably because they wanted to accuse them of something.

Moreover, they even sent Mo Yunchen and Shen Shaohui. Judging from their search in the camp, it might be related to Xu Yao and the others. However, as long as there is no actual evidence, Mo Ruilin cannot be convicted.

As for Xue Huang, she was not worried at all. She had plenty of amulets on her now, and she wanted to see what shameless methods these people would use to frame her.

After being locked up in the palace, there were still many imperial guards guarding around. Xue Huang felt that they were completely unnecessary and she had no intention of running away.

She sat at the table leisurely and opened the food box that the guard had brought her. The food inside was not bad, and it seemed that the guards did not intend to mistreat them, so she started to eat.

The meals in Guyan County these days were very mediocre, and she was already hungry after spending the whole day in the carriage.

When Mo Yunchen walked in, he saw her contented look. She didn't feel like she was being held captive at all, but rather like she was at home.

It seemed as if she had been just as comfortable when she was imprisoned in his dungeon three years ago.

"You've come just in time." Xue Huang looked up at him, "I have something to ask you."

Mo Yunchen sat opposite her without saying a word.

"I don't think you're being honest."

"how you said that?"

Xue Huang put down her chopsticks and said, "You were also involved in stealing the disaster relief money. But in the message you sent me, you didn't mention a word about it."

"Because," Mo Yunchen looked at her with a meaningful look in his eyes, "this is the only way you will come to me again."

Xue Huang automatically ignored it and asked, "So you admit it?"

"Whether you admit it or not, what does it mean?" Mo Yunchen asked indifferently. "The person who knew the truth back then is dead. Who can testify?"
