"According to the secret guard's report, it was Chen Ang who cut off Shangguan Yue's head with his own hands." Li Li added another sentence, his tone a little excited.
The room became quiet for a while, and a flash of surprise flashed in Xie Yao's eyes.
She knew that Shangguan Yue had been arrested, but she didn't expect that Chen Ang would kill Shangguan Yue.
Maybe he took Shangguan Yue as a spy. After all, Tian Quan originally came to arrest them, but was caught by them in turn. In Chen Ang's opinion, it was natural that he was a spy.
It doesn't matter who killed Shangguan Yue.
Suddenly, he noticed Chu Han's gaze, and raised his eyes to meet him.
The two looked at each other, and each understood the meaning in the other's eyes. After looking at each other, they looked away, and neither one spoke.
General Xie noticed this keenly and waved his hand to ask Mo Li to retreat.
After Li Qiye retreated, General Xie directly continued the previous topic and said, "Okay, let's go back and rest. We will leave here as soon as possible early tomorrow morning, and then return to the capital to find clues as soon as possible!"
Xie Yao understood her grandfather's intention and persuaded: "Grandpa, just leave the clues to me and my brother. Your current body is not suitable for long journeys, not to mention what happened to Dong Ao Country just now. You should rest
For the Lord, it is not appropriate to work too hard.”
"My sister is right!" Xie Wenwu also stood up to stop him, "Grandpa, don't worry. With my sister's brains and my strength, I will be able to find clues as soon as possible and succeed immediately!"
General Xie understood what the two children were thinking and smiled happily. Then his face turned serious and he pretended to be angry: "Do you dislike me for being old?"
"Grandpa is not old, he is getting stronger with age!" Xie Yao complimented with a smile, and then her expression became serious, "But we have grown up, and we can't always hide under grandfather's wings and let him protect us from wind and rain."
"Grandpa, you have protected us for half your life! Let us protect you for the remaining half of your life."
"Yes, it's our turn to protect you!" Xie Wenwu's voice was as firm as iron and resounding.
Looking at the resolute expressions of Xie Yao and Xie Wenwu in front of him, and listening to those decisive words, General Xie suddenly had a sore nose and his vision was a little blurry.
He raised his head and pushed back the tears in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily, and he was filled with relief, "Okay, okay! You have grown up! You can protect me now!"
Seeing this, Xie Yao also laughed.
The fact that her grandfather is fine is the greatest peace of mind in her heart. She can also let go after returning to the capital!
This night was spent particularly peacefully and peacefully.
After dawn, everyone got on the carriage as soon as possible and embarked on the journey!
Wu Feng was driving the carriage, and he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.
The prince found the princess and was able to get back to Jiangning City in time. This is the best result of the trip to Dongao Country!
…
The capital city of Dong proud country.
Yesterday, after Xie Yao and others left, Dongao Kingdom sealed the four city gates and no one was allowed in or out!
"Your Majesty, the people investigating us are still going on, and the number of people has suddenly doubled! If this continues, our identities may be found out in a few days." Feng Qing bowed to report, her voice a little worried.
"Don't worry, the city is only closed temporarily. We will leave when the city gate opens." Chu Ye's tone was calm.
"Yes!" Feng Qing responded respectfully, "I didn't expect Miss Xie to move so fast. From catching Tian Quan to leaving here, it took less than half an hour."
Yesterday, after Xie Yao and others kidnapped Tian Quan, they got the news. However, the Protector General's Mansion also acted very quickly, and then sealed the city, leaving them no time to leave.
Chu Ye's eyes suddenly darkened, with a touch of coldness, "The soldiers of the General Protector's Mansion should not be underestimated, but let King Han help me and gain a favor."
Unexpectedly, Xie Yao and Chu Han actually joined forces to attack and kidnapped Tian Quan with lightning speed, catching him off guard!
But it doesn’t matter, it’s just a day’s departure.
"Where did they go after they left?" Chu Ye asked in a deep voice.
"Returning to the prince, they are heading towards the border of Wanqi Kingdom. The road behind them is impossible to follow due to the open terrain, so there is no trace of them." Feng Qing said that his confidence had weakened a lot.
The border of Wanqi Country?
Chu Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a faint light flickering in them.
At this time, a guard came in from outside and reported: "Your Majesty, the city gate is open!"
Chu Ye's eyes flashed and he directly ordered: "Feng Qing."
"The humble duty is here."
"Leave immediately for Jiangning City."
"yes!"
A quarter of an hour later, Chu Ye and others had already left the city and headed towards Jiangning City.
Chu Ye opened a gap in the curtain and glanced into the distance, his eyes flashing slightly.
Xie Yao, wait for me, I will arrive shortly.
…
At the same time, people from the Protector General's Mansion found Tian Quan's body outside the city and immediately passed the news back.
When Chen Ang received the news, his eyes flashed with shock, and he dropped the teacup in his hand to the ground, shattering it to pieces!
How dare the remnants of the Xie family kill Tian Quan?!
The servant who was waiting next to him was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.
Chen Ang's chest rose and fell violently, and he calmed down after a moment. His eyes were so cold that they could kill someone, "Come here, search for me! No matter what, we must find the whereabouts of the remaining members of the Xie family!"
"Yes!" Someone responded immediately and quickly retreated.
On the other side, Hua Chi also received similar news and felt very complicated.
He was no longer in his own house at this moment, but in a magnificent and grand mansion.
Looking at the entire capital, there are only a handful of such mansions.
Just at dawn, he had successfully recognized his ancestor and became a member of this mansion, achieving his dream goal!
However, he was not happy at all and looked at the antidote that Xie Yao left for her in his hand.
He was still too late.
If it had been one day earlier, maybe everything would have been very different.
She has left, and will go further and further away, and will never even come back.
And he himself will be trapped in this grand mansion, unable to escape.
He has always been very clear in his heart that once she leaves here, there will be no possibility between them.
He had been trying his best to avoid this moment happening, but he still failed.
Maybe, this is fate.
Yunyao, no matter who you are, thank you for coming.
…
Two days later.
Chu Ye and others were rushing to Jiangning City day and night, when Feng Qing suddenly came to report.
"Prince Qi, I have received another secret letter." Feng Qing held the letter in both hands and handed it over.
He recognized that it was a secret message sent by the emperor's order.
Chu Ye glanced at it, then paused, immediately reached for the envelope and opened it...
