Yun Chengyan's gaze fell on Yun Qingqing and said, "Abao, you stay at the Duke of Huguo's mansion and wait for us to come back."

Abao is now a dead person. If she enters the palace and the emperor finds out about her, he might start to suspect something.

Yun Qingqing understood his concerns and said to him, "Brother, I want to go to the palace with you. Don't worry, my appearance has changed. The emperor won't recognize me."

Before Yun Chengyan could say anything, Yun Chengying chimed in: "Brother, Abao looks so different now that even mother wouldn't be able to recognize him. If the emperor can't recognize him, then let Abao come with us to the palace. Abao loves to watch the fun."

After hearing this, Yun Qingqing nodded heavily and agreed, "That's right, brother, I just love to join in the fun."

Yun Chengyan looked at Yun Qingqing, who looked like she really wanted to go to the palace to watch the fun, and his heart was filled with helplessness and pampering.

He knew his little sister's temperament very well. Once she made up her mind, she would be as stubborn as a bull and could not be pulled back even by nine bulls. So he nodded and said, "Okay, Abao, you can go with me, but don't be impulsive."

With his sister's current temper, he was really worried that she would blow up the palace with explosives if she disagreed with him.

Yun Qingqing received permission and hurriedly assured him, "Brother, don't worry. I won't be impulsive and will definitely behave myself!"

At this moment, Yun Chengyan thought of something and said to Yun Qingqing, "Abao, don't bring Xiaobai into the palace."

"Okay." Yun Qingqing nodded obediently.

After the Yun family members had gotten themselves organized, they headed towards the palace.

As Yun Qingqing followed her family towards the palace, she muttered to herself that she had emptied the palace before leaving the capital last time, and she didn't know what the palace's current situation was.

On the way to the palace, the emperor had learned from his spies about the situation of the people in the Duke of Protector's Mansion after they returned to the mansion. When he learned that they saw the mansion was empty and came to the palace to ask for things, the emperor immediately frowned. The palace was emptied, so how could he have anything to give them? Moreover, the whereabouts of those things stolen from the palace were now missing, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his brows twisted into knots, and he sighed continuously.

The eunuch beside him carefully handed over the teacup and gently advised, "Your Majesty, please calm down and take care of your health."

The emperor waved his hand impatiently, and the teacup fell to the ground with a clang and shattered into pieces. The eunuch was so scared that he fell to his knees, not daring to breathe.

The emperor grew angrier and angrier as he thought about it. Pointing at the scattered porcelain shards, he unleashed a barrage of curses at the kneeling eunuchs, "It's all your fault, you useless bunch! You couldn't even protect the palace properly, letting those evil creatures run rampant and emptying it out! Now the people from the Protectorate come to me asking for something. What shall I give them? Air?"

The eunuch was so frightened that he trembled all over, buried his head even lower, and kept saying "I deserve to die."

The emperor was angry for a while, his chest heaving violently, but gradually, his rapid breathing calmed down, and his eyes changed from rage to deep thought.

The Duke of Protectorate's Mansion was confiscated and exiled by his father, and all the people in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion died on the way to exile.

Now that the Duke of Huguo's Mansion has returned victorious, he is afraid that the invaders may have bad intentions and will definitely seek an explanation from him, or even seek revenge for his family.

The more the emperor thought about it, the uglier his expression became. The Duke of Protectorate had a very high prestige in the army. Those soldiers who had followed the Yun family to fight might be far more loyal to the Yun family than to him, the emperor.

If the Yun family raises a call, it is hard to guarantee that it will not cause turmoil in the army, so we must stabilize the people in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.

The Yun family and their entourage arrived at the gate of the imperial palace. The towering palace gate exuded a cold aura in the sunlight, like a dormant giant beast, quietly examining them.

Yun Qingqing raised her eyes and glanced at the vermilion gate, and an urge to blow up the palace gate came to her mind.

A group of palace servants had already come to greet them at the palace gate. The leading eunuch, with a beaming face, stepped forward to greet them warmly, then said, "Old Marshal, His Majesty has been thinking of you for a long time and is looking forward to catching up with you. Please follow me into the palace."

Marshal Yun had a blank expression on his face. He nodded slightly and walked towards the palace.

Everyone in the Yun family followed him towards the palace.

Walking along the spacious palace road, Yun Qingqing found that there were obviously many more guards in the palace than before, and all of them had serious expressions and alert eyes. She thought that it was because she had emptied the palace that the Dog Emperor had increased his vigilance.

Humph, if she wants to empty out a place, no matter how heavily guarded it is, she can get in.

Yun Chengying looked around the palace as he walked and found that it was empty. All the things that could be moved were gone, and even the night pearls on the walls of the palace had been picked off. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, thinking that Abao was so powerful. She had messed up the palace. He glanced at Yun Qingqing and saw that she looked like a little maid with her eyebrows lowered and her appearance was submissive. He laughed in his heart, thinking that his sister's disguise was really good.

As he walked, Yun Chengying noticed that the exquisite bronze crane and qilin statues that were originally placed on both sides of the palace road were nowhere to be seen, leaving only empty stone bases.

Yun Chengying couldn't hold back her laughter when she thought that Abao didn't even let go of these exquisite bronze crane and Qilin statues.

This sudden laughter was particularly harsh in the quiet and depressing palace corridor. In an instant, the air around seemed to freeze.
