Yun Wu glanced at the entire banquet hall. There was no back door. The desks were placed in the middle of the hall, roughly divided into three rows on the left and right.
The piano players and dancers were so frightened when they saw them rushing in that they hid aside and did not continue.
"Hey, why did the princess come here? Why did she bring so many ghost-faced troops with her?"
Cang Su, who was drinking wine, stood up and looked at Yun Wu in confusion.
Yun Wu asked him: "When did the regent leave the table?"
"About half an hour ago, not long after the banquet started, he left on the excuse of feeling unwell.
What's wrong? The regent is missing?"
Cang Su's eyes widened and she asked in disbelief.
Yun Wu frowned: "Yes, I haven't gone back yet. I asked people to search Prince Rong's Mansion but no one was found. Where is Helianjue?"
"The fourth prince just left not long ago. Didn't you meet him when you came here?"
"We came from other places and may have missed him. Was there anything unusual when the regent left?"
Cang Su thought for a while and shook his head: "No, he really doesn't like drinking. After King Rong and the Crown Prince toasted two glasses of wine, he stopped accepting toasts from others, and then left the table after sitting for a while."
"Did Bao Yi and Lei Lei leave with him?" Yun Wu asked.
"No, he was the only one when he left. I happened to notice him leaving the table and took a special look."
"Thank you. I have to go find him right away. He must have been in trouble."
Since Cang Su said that Ye Xiang left, it must have happened when he left here.
It's strange. Bao Yi and Lei Lei usually follow him closely and never leave. Why are they not with him when he leaves the table?
It’s just a meal, so why is there a problem with eating!
Yun Wu forced herself not to be anxious. She had to go to see Prince Rong and the Crown Prince first, and she had to ask them to send people to look for him together.
By the way, I asked them if they had anything to hide.
Prince Rong had just finished his wine and was sipping the hangover soup brought by Princess Rong when someone outside reported, "Princess Yunwu wants to see you."
Princess Rong was a little displeased: "It's so late, why is she, a woman, asking to see the prince?"
She had met Yun Wu today. She looked coquettish and dressed very flamboyantly. She didn't look like a princess at all.
It is really not polite at all for a woman to come to see her husband at such a late hour. Fortunately, she gave her the honor to meet her and treat her to a banquet today.
What a shameless woman.
No wonder people say that she shamelessly followed the regent without even asking for her title.
"Return to her that I have already fallen asleep." King Rong finished drinking the sobering soup and asked the maid to take off her soap boots and prepare to lie down and sleep.
Another servant's voice sounded outside: "Your Majesty, Princess Yunwu said she must see you today, otherwise she will force her way in."
"How outrageous, who is she? We kindly asked her to be our guest, but she actually threatened us?" Princess Rong was angry first.
King Rong shouted: "Tell someone to drive her away."
"My lord, she brought dozens of ghost-faced troops. Our people couldn't defeat them, and they were all knocked down... Your lord... she said that if we don't see her again, she will force her way in!" the person reporting outside said anxiously.
Yun Wu stood outside the courtyard gate. The dreamland at night was particularly cold. She had not even put on gloves when she came out, and now her hands were red from the cold.
She naturally heard the voice from the servants, but it was obvious that the prince and princess had no intention of seeing her at all.
Then don't blame her for being rude, Ye Xiang is gone, let alone offending a Prince Rong, she is not afraid even if he goes to the palace.
"My regent disappeared after attending a wedding banquet. Can the prince and princess still sleep?"
Since you attach so much importance to the night disaster and even held such a big banquet, and now that the person is missing, shouldn't you call someone to look for him quickly?
King Rong was so calm that Yun Wu had to suspect that these people had known what happened for a long time and that this was a premeditated plan.
But she couldn't figure out why Prince Rong would plot an assassination against them since he had no enmity with them.
Even if he is the minion of the Fourth Prince, he should not be so blatant. After all, Ye Xiang represents the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Doesn't this blatantly tell the world that they have taken action against Da Zhou?
What's more, Helianjue, the fourth prince of the Great Xia Kingdom, was with them.
Even if the fourth prince wanted to deal with Ye Xiang and weaken her strength, he would do it secretly. How could he do it so obviously?
King Rong was so angry that his head almost exploded. How could such a woman stay awake in the middle of the night and come to him to find a man?
If a man doesn't go back, he will find another woman. Doesn't she understand such a simple truth?
My man couldn't control himself and came to him, the master of Prince Rong's Mansion, to ask for someone!
What a crazy woman.
King Rong sat up, and before he could ask someone to drive Yun Wu away, he saw a woman wearing a silver cloak rushing in with a group of ghost-faced troops.
King Rong's face turned dark: "Bold, who gave you the courage!"
"Sorry, Prince Rong, my regent has disappeared. I am very anxious now. I must ask Prince Rong if he knows where my regent has gone?"
Yun Wu glanced at him calmly, with a cold look in her eyes.
He stared at King Rong's facial expression without blinking.
King Rong said with a smile: "You wanted to find the regent, so you came here and broke into my courtyard.
I, Prince Rong, asked you to come in as a guest, and you behaved like this! Are you worthy of being a guest? Get out.
If you don't go out, get out of the palace. Our palace does not welcome a crazy woman like you."
"I can leave, but I must take my regent with me." Yun Wu didn't care at all what he said.
Who cares about living here? If it weren't for the sake of Princess Rong, she would have moved out right now.
But Ye Xiang must be found first.
"The regent is gone. Who do you want from me? He is a grown man. There are so many maids in the palace. He might have taken a fancy to one of them and went to have fun with someone else.
How can you, a nameless and statusless woman, have the right to go to him? You are so lawless, and you guards are also following her in this mischief?"
The leader of the Ghost Faced Army replied: "Master Yunwu's order is the master's order. If the prince knows where our master is, please tell me."
King Rong laughed angrily: "You are so outrageous, come here, I will drive them out!"
"Your Majesty, I'd better stop calling people. Your palace's guards are not enough for us to fight. If you know where my regent is, release them quickly.
As you said, I am a crazy woman, and I will do anything to find a man. When the time comes for him to see blood in your Prince Rong Mansion, don't blame me for not being polite first and then fighting."
"Madman, what a madman, you shameless woman, do you know what shame? The Regent didn't go back to find someone else."
