Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Bang—”
The expensive white jade vase shattered into pieces.
The servants cowered at the side and did not even dare to breathe loudly!
Emperor Ling Hui slammed the table, picked up the jade seal, and was about to smash it when Eunuch Lin hurriedly stopped him. “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, General Gou wall definitely be able to find Noble Consort Ling.”
He carefully took the jade seal and put it down. “Your Majesty, don’t be too anxious. If Noble Consort Ling finds out, she will definitely be worried about your health.”
Emperor Ling Hui’s eyes darkened. Thinking of Noble Consort Ling’s smile in the past, he ruthlessly swept the table clean. “Ask Commander Zhang to get in here!”
Noble Consort Ling’s disappearance was kept a secret. The entire harem only knew that Noble Consort Ling was sick and was still recuperating.
As soon as Commander Zhang entered the imperial study room, he felt a terrifying dragon might. He looked up trembling. “Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Emperor Ling Hui looked down at Commander Zhang, and the pressure was even more terrifying.
Commander Zhang could not help but be puzzled. Could it be that he had committed some crime? It should not be to this extent when he had only visited the brothel!
Fortunately, Emperor Ling Hui did not waste his breath on him. He ordered, “Bring all the imperial guards and investigate all the intersections in the capital now. You must bring Noble Consort Ling back unscathed!”
Commander Zhang was stunned. Wasn’t Noble Consort Ling in the palace?
Meeting Emperor Ling Hui’s cold face, Commander Zhang thought of the tight security in the palace the previous night and couldn’t help but shiver. Noble Consort Ling had been kidnapped?
Which expert had the guts to kidnap the emperor’s woman?
However, this robber really had good taste.
Noble Consort Ling was completely worthy of being called a peerless beauty. It was no wonder that Emperor Ling Hui had not even conferred the Empress title to the Eldest Prince’s biological mother and only doted on her.
However, it was too difficult to investigate without a portrait of her.
Moreover, even if Emperor Ling Hui could hide such a huge movement on the surface, it was impossible for the wily old foxes in the capital not to know.
Commander Zhang hesitated and said, “Your Majesty, can you give me a portrait of Consort?”
“Pa pa pa~”
Dozens of white marble brushes hit Commander Zhang’s head. Emperor Ling Hui scolded angrily, “Are you stupid? Even if there’s a portrait of her, can’t she disguise herself?”
“Investigate all the suspicious women and men of the same height. Don’t let any of them off!”
“Especially in the direction of Qingyang City, investigate carefully!”
Hearing Emperor Ling Hui’s tone, Noble Consort Ling might have escaped from the palace on her own. Commander Zhang received the order and escaped to prevent the angry Emperor Ling Hui from smashing the flower pot at him again.
Commander Zhang rushed out of the imperial study room. When the Eldest Prince, who had come to pay his respects to Emperor Ling Hui, saw this, he secretly asked the young eunuch at the door, “What’s going on?”
The young eunuch smiled and said, “I was too far away and didn’t hear them clearly.”
He was Emperor Ling Hui’s subordinate. If he revealed it to the Eldest Prince, he could forget about his head.
The Eldest Prince knew that the young eunuch was unwilling to tell him, so he snorted and could only send someone to report to Emperor Ling Hui about his visit.
Emperor Ling Hui shouted at the young eunuch, “Tell him to get lost!”
The huge dragon might frightened Eunuch Lin so much that he did not dare to breathe loudly. At the door, Chu Mingxuan’s face was ashen, as if he had eaten feces.
He was clearly Emperor Ling Hui’s only son, but he was not favored at all. When he was young, the Emperor would still comfort him and say that he loved him deeply.
Now, even dogs knew that he was treated worse than the eunuch beside Emperor Ling Hui.
Chu Mingxuan clenched his fists and persuaded himself to be more patient. Emperor Ling Hui would die before him sooner or later.
“I have something important to report to Father!”
The young eunuch had no choice but to brace himself and report again.
This time, Chu Mingxuan was invited in.
However, Emperor Ling Hui’s expression was still very ugly, especially the way he looked at him, as if he was looking at some trash.
Chu Mingxuan greeted respectfully, “Greetings, Father!”
Emperor Ling Hui lowered his eyes and the hostility on his face subsided a lot. “What is it?”
Chu Mingxuan replied, “Father, there are rumors at the border of the southern frontier that Gu Chilie has rebelled and ascended the throne.”
Emperor Ling Hui immediately exploded in anger. “Did you send someone to investigate?”
Chu Mingxuan replied carefully, “The journey to the southern frontier is long. I sent someone to investigate, but I don’t know when there will be any news, so 1 wanted to report to Father in advance.”
Emperor Ling Hui suddenly thought of Noble Consort Ling, who had suddenly disappeared, and what had happened back then. He immediately burned with anger and shouted at Chu Mingxuan, “Didn’t you recommend You Huaijie? Why didn’t he send any news back!”
He had been too busy recently, so he did not have the time to ask about the southern frontier.
The fire suddenly spread to Chu Mingxuan, scaring him. “I’m sorry!”
Emperor Ling Hui looked at him in disgust. “Trash! Get down!”
Chu Mingxuan hurriedly got lost. Emperor Ling Hui suddenly fell into deep thought.
It was impossible for a weak woman like Noble Consort Ling to bribe the people around her to escape from the heavily guarded palace.
If Gu Chilie wanted to rebel, it was impossible for him to arrange for someone to kidnap Noble Consort Ling.
Then there was only one person left.
After being angry, Emperor Ling Hui actually smiled and said to Eunuch Lin inexplicably, “I knew that brat wouldn’t die easily!”
Eunuch Lin had a guess in his heart, but he did not dare to speak without permission. He only glanced at the sky outside.
If it was true, things would change.
As soon as Commander Zhang left the city, he was called back by Emperor Ling Hui.
Commander Zhang thought that Noble Consort Ling had been found and that there was no need to look for her. In the end, he heard from Emperor Ling Hui that he had to investigate all the exits in the southern frontier and find the Young General and Noble Consort Ling.
Commander Zhang was stunned again.
Wasn’t the Young General dead?
His tombstone was already covered in grass.
Also, why did the Young General kidnap Noble Consort Ling and why was the order to not hurt him at all?
Commander Zhang’s mind was filled with question marks. He would appear dumb if he remained stunned there. Emperor Ling Hui frowned. “Do you understand? If you hurt them, 1’11 cut you!”
Commander Zhang’s scalp tightened. He hurriedly said, “Yes!”
He ran away in a hurry, but Emperor Ling Hui was still shaking his head. “He’s so stupid. Can he find them?”
Emperor Ling Hui thought for a moment and summoned the Dark Guard that he had carefully trained, Nine Heavens. He gave him an order to bring Chu Tianbao and Noble Consort Ling back unscathed.
As for Gu Chilie’s rebellion, Emperor Linghui narrowed his eyes. When Chu Tianbao returned, he would let him personally recover the southern frontier.
Commander Zhang had entered the palace twice and brought many people to investigate each exit. This immediately attracted the attention of some people.
When the Eldest Prince received the exact news, he rushed to the An Le Palace.
The once arrogant Consort Chu now only had the title of Madam Chu and lived in the dilapidated palace without any status.
All the servants were secretly guessing what treason Consort Chu had done to make Emperor Ling Hui so angry that he abandoned her here, completely disregarding the Eldest Prince’s reputation.
As soon as the Eldest Prince arrived, Quan Qiaorong’s complexion instantly improved.
When she learned from her son that Noble Consort Ling was missing, she immediately laughed crazily.. “Go, go and report to the world!”
