Because of the death of Old Madam Meng, the whole family kept their filial piety behind closed doors, and they have long since disappeared from the aristocratic circle in the capital. People in the capital haven't seen the Meng family for at least half a year.
However, the servants of the Meng family would go out to buy fresh fruits and vegetables every day and silently told everyone in the capital that their master was still at home.
However, when the imperial army rushed into the Meng Family's house, they didn't see anyone. There was only a house with rotten fruits and vegetables, and dead flowers and tree trunks.
"What's going on here?" The guards leading the team were dumbfounded.
No one, what would they bring back to the palace?
"My lord, the Meng family should have left long ago. No one lived in the house for at least two or three months. But some valuable things are still in the house and have not been taken away." The Meng family left very low-key, and they didn't leave together. Also, they didn't take anything away except for the soft things they use all the time. Obviously, they had been prepared for a long time.
"Damn it, it seems Xiao Wangye has long been prepared." The imperial army leading the team went around. What else did they not understand?
"Let's go, return to the palace as soon as possible, this is a big blow." With mental calculations and unintentional calculations, coupled with the strength of Prince Xiao, it was difficult to win against him.
The imperial army came in a hurry and left even more hastily.
In the palace, the imperial doctor was massaging the Emperor's head to relieve his headache. After finally letting the Emperor relax, the Emperor heard the news that the Meng family was not in the capital anymore. His mood fluctuated so much that his headache became more and more serious. contemporary romance
"Bastards, bastards, how do you do things? Dozens of people from the Meng family have not been seen for several months, and you didn't find out?" The Emperor has the heart to kill.
It was understandable for Lin Chujiu to run out. After all, there were shadow guards from Xiao Wangfu guarding her, but what about the Meng family?
They went out of the capital many months ago, but no one found out, what do those people in the capital doing?
"Where are the people from Tiancang Pavilion? Let them come to see me!" The Emperor was so angry that he didn't do any foolish tricks or smash things.
"Yes, yes, yes." The little leader of the imperial army was so frightened that he scrambled and ran out, wishing he could go home and play sick, but he didn't have the guts.
Didn't Prime Minister You say he was sick, and the Emperor send the imperial physician and the forbidden army to see his condition? If he said he was sick, the emperor would kill him directly.
Not long after, the Special Envoy of the East from Tiancang Pavilion entered the palace. The chubby Special Envoy Dongwen seemed to be a little rounder than before, but his complexion was much worse than before.
The special envoy of the East stood anxiously in front of the Emperor, sweating profusely, and hurriedly saluted: "Greetings to the Emperor, may you live long for a thousand more years."
"Get up!" The Emperor waved his hand eagerly without waiting for the other party to bow down, "Special envoy, does Tiancang Pavilion know the whereabouts of the Meng Family?"
"Your majesty, to be honest, the person who collected the news about the Meng family in Tiancang Pavilion disappeared two days ago, and the news that came before was that the Meng family was in the capital." It can be seen that Xiao Tianyao had prepared for a long time. Not only he guarded against the Emperor but also guarded against the people in Tiancang Pavilion.
"If you want to trace the whereabouts of the Meng family, how many days will it take?" The more Xiao Tianyao values the Meng family, the greater the value of the Meng family.
"This, this, Your Majesty, this matter…" The Special Envoy looked embarrassed.
The Emperor's face changed, "What does the special envoy mean? You refuse to help me find someone?"
"Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to help, but that we at Tiancang Pavilion may not be able to get involved in this matter." The Special Envoy said with embarrassment, but closed his eyes.
"What do you mean? What do you mean you can't meddle? You Tiancang Pavilion also started this matter. Are you telling me that you are going to stop now? Do you know that there is no turning back when you pull the string of the bow?" The Emperor was going crazy, and his tone was also impolite.
At this time, Tiancang Pavilion was going to pull back his hand, weren't they trying to kill him?
The Special Envoy sighed: "Your Majesty, it's not that we're being unkind this time, it's that Xiao Wangye is too scary. Xiao Wangye got hold of the information about our Tiancang Pavilion at some point, and his shadow guards united with a secret force. The spies of Tiancang Pavilion in the eastern country were massacred, except for those in the capital that hasn't been found out for the time being. We suffered countless casualties." And most of them were seriously injured and disabled, but not fatal, They need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to treat those people.
This was the news he received before entering the palace, and this was also the convenience of Tiancang Pavilion's information transmission. Otherwise, he wouldn't know that Prince Xiao had such a skill.
He knew that Prince Xiao was so powerful. He was afraid that their young master would be dissatisfied. Their Tiancang and Shadow Moon don't get involved in the struggle for imperial power. This time, he had a big loss.
"What did you say? Xiao Tianyao's people slaughtered the spies of Tiancang Pavilion everywhere?" The Emperor's eyes widened in disbelief: "This is impossible, he doesn't have that many people in his hands, and his power is mainly in the capital."
Both were old rivals. Although the Emperor doesn't know how many people Xiao Tianyao has, he was very clear about his power distribution.
"It's not Xiao Wangye's people, it's another team. Does the Emperor still remember the matter of the Ci Entang?" The Special Envoy didn't hide or play tricks this time.
He and the emperor were on the same boat. Although they were mistreated by the Emperor this time, the same Emperor also mistreated them. Like the same unlucky people, Tiancang Pavilion will not make trouble.
"Ci Entang? That mysterious force? Could it be that it belonged to Xiao Wangye?" The incident at the Ci Entang was so great that it was impossible for the Emperor not to remember it.
He has never given up on tracking down the news of the Ci Entang, but the people behind the Ci Entang seem to have disappeared without any clues.
"It's that force, but the other party should not belong to Xiao Wangye. If the news about Tianzang Pavilion is correct, Xiao Wangye should just be cooperating with the mastermind behind the Ci Entang." Prince Xiao has limited spies and secret guards, but the Ci Entang was everywhere in the country.
The mastermind behind-the-scene of Ci Entang has been operating in the east for decades. Its influence spreads across every corner of the country. If Xiao Tianyao didn't intervene, Tianzang Pavilion would never lose against them. However, the Ci Entang teamed up with Prince Xiao to beat Tiancang Pavilion by surprise.
This time, Tiancang Pavilion suffered heavy losses, and it was very likely that it will disappear from the east.
"Check it out for me, I want you to find out who is behind this Ci Entang!" The Emperor was dripping with cold sweat, his face was pale, and his lips were trembling.
Both angry and scared!
Under his nose, he recognized such a behemoth as Tianzang Pavilion, and he also recognized Xiao Tianyao, a rebellious person, but why is this Ci Entang acting arrogant under his nose?
Those people, do they take him as the Emperor seriously?
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, our Tiancang Pavilion has mobilized the power of the four countries to track down the mastermind behind the Ci Entang. We will tell Your Majesty as soon as we have news." After this blow, Tiancang Pavilion's power in the east will be greatly reduced.
If Tiancang Pavilion wants to continue to develop in the east, it must get the support of the ruler. Compared with Xiao Tianyao, the special envoy was of course more willing to cooperate with the current emperor.
But the premise was that the current position of the Emperor can be secured!
