My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne
Chapter 159 A fierce battle!
Murong Ye didn't sleep all night.
As soon as he went to bed last night, Dieyi came to Prince Xian's mansion to report to him what happened in Xunhuan Tower.
The backyard caught fire, the child disappeared, the sentry was killed, and the government sealed off the pleasure building. Each of these things was enough to give him a headache.
Before the person he sent out to inquire about the news returned, the guards carried a woman who was blackened by smoke and knocked on the study door.
"Come in."
The guard placed the woman on the ground and reported to Murong Ye, "Your Highness, this woman has your personal token. She is lying at the gate of the palace, insisting on seeing you!"
Murong Ye stared at the woman on the ground, as if carefully identifying her appearance.
Her mouth remained strangely open, and her originally beautiful face was blurred by the smoke.
The burned area on the right cheek was like a rag that had been charred black by fire, with the skin and flesh turned outward and a hideous dark red color.
Murong Ye suppressed the nausea in his heart and called her softly, "...Hezi?"
When Jiucai Hezi saw that he recognized her, her eyes flushed red with excitement, "Ah...ah..."
Watching her try to open her mouth to speak, Murong Ye finally confirmed that her jaw was dislocated.
Murong Ye hesitated for a moment before reaching out to grab her chin and twisting it hard.
Suddenly, Jiucai Hezi's chin returned to normal.
Her cracked lips trembled, and she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Murong Sang, two women broke into Xunhuan Tower. Not only did they take away all the children, they also set a fire, trying to burn us all to death! If I hadn't fought to the death to escape, I'd probably be a charred corpse!"
Her throat was damaged by the thick smoke from the fire, and when she spoke it felt as if there was sand rubbing against her throat, making her voice rough, hoarse, and particularly harsh.
In fact, before Jiucai Hezi came, Dieyi had already reported to him everything that happened in Xunhuan Tower.
However, Dieyi was talking about what happened in the front hall, while Jiucai Hezi was talking about what happened in the backyard.
At this time, Murong Ye pieced together what the two of them said, and then he realized that this matter was not simple. The other party acted separately in an organized and premeditated manner, and they were probably targeting him!
According to Dieyi's description, the man in the front hall who was covered in jewels and had a beard was trying to attract the attention of the guards of Xunhuanlou.
However, Murong Ye couldn’t understand how the other party could find those children so accurately when he hid them so secretly?
Liu Si Niang from Xunhuan Tower reported to him last night that Murong Nan and his wife had gone to the backyard. Could it be that Chu Xinyue did all this?
No! Not her!
Although Chu Xinyue is skilled, she lacks strategy.
There must be someone behind the couple, and the only one who can make Prince Kang and Princess Qinghe move is the current emperor, Murong Che!
He had been planning carefully for many years, hoping to use these children to win over court officials and thus undermine Murong Che's power. He didn't expect that all his efforts would be destroyed overnight!
Murong Ye's hands at his sides tightened fiercely, and his knuckles crackled.
Murong Che!
All this must have been instructed by Murong Che!
I really underestimated him before...
"Murong Sang!"
Murong Ye's resentment had reached its peak, but he was suddenly interrupted by Jiu Cai Hezi.
She raised her dusty hands and grabbed Murong Ye's black brocade boots. Her bloodshot eyes reflected overwhelming hatred. "I want revenge! Help me find those two women! I'll tear them into pieces..."
Hatred surged in her chest, but because her injuries were too severe, her emotions were so intense that her head tilted to the side and she fainted.
Murong Ye's pupils tightened and he quickly reached out to feel her breath.
Murong Ye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when his fingers felt her weak breathing.
When Jiucai Hezi wanted to come to Jiuzhou with him, her father Jiucaichuan Yifu refused to agree.
Cai Hezi tried every possible means to persuade him, and even went on a hunger strike to show his determination.
Later, it was only after Murong Ye promised Jiucai Chuan Yifu that he would protect Jiucai Hezi that Jiucai Chuan Yifu agreed to let his second daughter come to Jiuzhou with him.
If Jiucai Hezi died here, Jiucai Chuan Yifu would definitely turn against him. Without the support of the Japanese, he would lose an important bargaining chip to deal with Murong Che.
Murong Ye would never allow this to happen!
Thinking about this, he looked up and ordered the people guarding outside, "Quick! Call the court doctor here immediately!"
After the court doctor examined Jiucai Hezi, Murong Ye immediately stepped forward to inquire about her condition, "How is her injury?"
"Your Highness, this girl has sustained burns in many places, especially on the right side of her face. While the injuries are not fatal, they will leave scars."
Upon hearing this, Murong Ye said sternly, "I will cure her no matter what method you use!"
"Your Highness, my medical skills are not very good. Even if I use the best herbs, it is impossible to completely remove the scars on her face."
The burns on her face were so severe that it was impossible to avoid scars.
Murong Yejun's face was gloomy, "Then continue to think of a way!"
"Yes!"
Murong Ye glanced deeply at Jiucai Hezi who was lying unconscious on the bed, then turned and walked out of the guest room.
After leaving, he immediately called Night Crow and said, "Go to the Salesian Bureau and tell them to destroy the adoption records immediately!"
Night Crow is the most powerful secret guard commander around Murong Ye, and also the person Murong Ye trusts the most, no doubt about it.
Previously, the Xianle Painting Boat was making a fortune, and Murong Ye was worried about handing it over to someone else, so he asked him to secretly manage all the affairs of the painting boat.
Murong Ye used to ask his secret guards to do small things like retrieving adoption records, but now he specifically asked Ye Ya to make a trip, which shows how cautious and important he is about this matter.
Night Crow nodded immediately, "I understand!"
The Charity Bureau is in the north of the city, not far from Prince Xian's Palace. After leaving the palace, Night Ya rode a fast horse directly to the Charity Bureau.
"drive--"
"drive--"
On another street, Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue were also riding the fastest horses in the government office, heading towards the Charity Bureau.
The two men raised their whips and whipped the horses' buttocks. The horses felt pain and ran even faster.
"Ali, our speed should be able to outpace the secret guards of the Xianwang Mansion, right?"
Xue Youli had checked the Book of Heavenly Secrets, and Murong Ye also sent his confidant Ye Ya to rush to the Charity Bureau to destroy the adoption records so that there would be no evidence.
They must get the records before Night Crow. If the relevant personnel are allowed to escape, wouldn’t the children’s suffering be in vain?
Their crimes are monstrous, and the evil deeds they have committed are too numerous to list. Not a single one of them can be let off!
"I don't know. Now we have to compete with the hero in luck!" Xue Youli said, raising the whip again, "Gee--"
Fortunately, it was still early and there were almost no people on the streets at this time, so their horses galloped all the way to the Salesian Bureau without any obstruction.
After rushing all the way, Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue finally arrived at the Charity Bureau half an hour later.
The gate of the Salesian Bureau was not open yet, so the two men pulled the reins, tied the horses to a tree stump not far from the back door of the bureau, and then climbed over the wall to enter.
Xue Youli turned on the navigation and immediately saw a black dot on the map on the electronic screen climbing over the wall on the other side of the Charity Bureau.
"Murong Ye's men have also arrived. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle soon."
Chu Xinyue listened to her reminder, hesitated for a moment, and made a decision in her heart, "Ali, tell me the other party's location. I will intercept him to buy you some time. Finding the adoption records is up to you!"
Xue Youli looked at her, her eyes filled with worry. "The person coming is Murong Ye's confidant. His skills should not be underestimated. You have to be careful!"
Chu Xinyue raised her heroic brows, "Don't worry, I'm Princess Qinghe who has never lost a fight!"
They didn't waste any more words. After Xue Youli pointed out the location of Night Crow to Chu Xinyue, they both turned around at the same time and rushed in different directions.
Their backs are resolute and awe-inspiring.
Night Crow climbed into the orphanage and was about to go to the study where the adoption records were kept when suddenly a figure flashed before his eyes and a heroic woman blocked his way.
Night Crow's eyes fell on Chu Xinyue's heroic and beautiful face, and his eyes couldn't help but darken a bit, "Princess Qinghe?"
Chu Xinyue raised her eyebrows. "This princess is indeed famous. Since you know me, I won't waste any more words. If you don't want to die, get out!"
Night Crow scoffed and stood still, "What if I don't get out?"
"Then die!"
After Chu Xinyue finished speaking, she punched him hard in the face!
