To them, these were just two insignificant human lives, which were not as valuable as the life of the true dragon emperor.
"When the city gate opens, let's discuss with father about leaving the capital for a while." The more Wang Ruiyan thought about it, the more anxious she became.
"But..." Lu Fengning hesitated.
"......We have to wait. Our Wu'an Marquis Mansion cannot be the first." Lu Mingyun said.
Li Mofu held up his face and complained, "If I had known, I would never have returned to the capital. Now I can't even leave if I want to."
Hearing him say this, Lu Mingyun's eyes darkened, and he suddenly felt that his decision to bring Li Mofu back was wrong.
"You can't say that. The capital is in chaos, and other places won't be much better either." Lu Fengning said.
"Now that things have come to this, we should take it one step at a time. It's useless to blame the past," Wang Ruiyan also said.
Li Mofu pursed his lips and suddenly thought of Zhao Xu and Zuo Zheng who went to Jiangnan. "I wonder how Zhao Xu and the others are doing. They should be here by now."
Lu Mingyun was still immersed in self-blame, while Li Mofu had already jumped to the next topic. He paused and said, "It has arrived. Someone sent a letter to let me know that they are safe."
"So how is the third prince doing in Jiangnan?" Li Mofu asked again. He hoped that the third prince would come back and make some trouble.
The other three had almost noticed what Li Mofu was going to say next, so Wang Ruiyan quickly stopped him, saying, "The Third Prince is naturally fine, but we shouldn't talk about this topic now. Let's talk about what happened last night."
Li Mofu blinked and shut up. Lu Mingyun pinched his nose and said, "Now we can only wait for father to come back."
Marquis Wu'an didn't come back until after lunch. As soon as he came back, the Lu brothers went to look for him. Wang Ruiyan also had things to deal with, so Li Mofu had to go back to the room and lie down.
Now that the ghost immortal who was the source of the trouble in the capital has disappeared, it stands to reason that it won't be long before the emperor and the prince die of illness and meet the end that should have belonged to them. However, the evil desires of the emperor and the prince have long been guided out by the ghost immortal. Will they really let it go?
What crazy things will they do?
Eat human flesh and drink human blood directly?
However, the emperor has now offended a group of powerful ministers. Can the emperor really control them after the ghost immortal disappears?
The second prince has always turned a blind eye to this matter. In Li Mofu's eyes, he is not a wise leader.
The third prince was sent to Jiangnan, and Zhao Xu's trip to Jiangnan this time was obviously to join the third prince. Will the third prince become the final winner in the end as written in the original novel?
But what Lu Mingyun discovered during his investigation in Su County became "direct" evidence of the murder of King Qi. The Third Prince and King Qi have a deep relationship, so will he really let them go?
The more he thought about it, the more headache he got. Finally, Li Mofu fell asleep while thinking. He dreamed that he was being chased. He kept running and running, and finally fell into a dark pond.
When he woke up again, it was time for dinner. Li Mofu was worried about what happened yesterday, so he waited for Lu Mingyun to come before eating.
After Lu Mingyun arrived, he told Li Mofu the news he had heard from Wu'an Hou. Wu'an Hou and a group of ministers who were inspecting the mansion had been waiting outside the palace gate for a whole morning, but the emperor remained unmoved and simply pretended to be dumb but did not compromise.
This attitude angered many old ministers. In the eyes of some old ministers, dignity was more important than life. After seeing the emperor's attitude clearly, they immediately decided to use their lives to make suggestions and demand an explanation no matter what.
Li Mofu sighed at the current situation. If the emperor were a little crazier, a little more crazy, would these ministers rebel? However, it was estimated that the emperor would die of illness before the ministers could rebel.
For the next three days, the imperial guards were still searching the capital, and the city gates were never opened. The entire capital was in a state of fear and tension, and every day old ministers braved the cold to come to the palace gate to ask to see the emperor.
