Chapter 1087: The Emperor’s urgent edict
When Zhou Awu got the news, he rushed to report it.
Chu Yan suddenly raised his head and stared at Zhou Awu: “Merchant ship? Hegu Water Bureau? When did it happen?”
Zhou Awu replied: “According to the travel time, it should be 2 days ago.”
Chu Yan slapped the table fiercely, and there were a few more cracks in the legs of the table.“What happened 2 days ago, why are you just reporting it right now? Are all the people in the Hegu Water Bureau dead?”
Zhou Awu said: “The Hegu Water Bureau is located in a remote place, and they don’t know what happened in the capital. As soon as they got the news, they sent a letter. It’s good enough they did.”
Of course, Chu Yan knew that they could not be blamed, but he had to let out his anxiety and anger, right?
He walked out quickly.
Zhou Awu quickly followed: ‘Your Highness, where are you going now? ’
“Go to Xinyang Province.” Chu Yan had already walked out of the door as he spoke.
Zhou Awu busily said: “Go in the carriage, you haven’t slept for several days. If you continue like this, your body will be unable to bear it.”Chu Yan shook his head: “No need, lead the horse.”
Asking him to sleep, how can he sleep? Bai Zhi’s whereabouts were unknown. He doesn’t even know who did it. He was anxious as if a fire burning him all the time.
At this moment, there was finally a clue, and he wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly over.
Horseback riding was the fastest way.
He suspected Chu Feng at first, but the person he sent to stare at Chu Feng reported that it was impossible, Chu Feng now eats and sleeps all day long, and didn’t contact anyone. He couldn’t have the opportunity and ability to do this thing.
Later, he thought of Song Lang again.
That guy was a ghost, it doesn’t seem difficult for him to do this.
If it was him—Chu Yan’s knuckles holding the reins were turned white. His face looked very ugly, he gritted his teeth and said: “If it is you, I will cut you with a thousand pieces.”
He turned over and got on his horse, the short whip slammed hard on the horse’s butt. The horse neighed and run away.
Zhou Awu and several dark guards immediately followed.
When he was about to leave the city gate, Chu Yan suddenly stopped, turned his head, and said to Zhou Awu: “Send someone to deliver a letter to Dongfang Family, let the master know my whereabouts, and don’t let him worry about me anymore.”
After Bai Zhi disappeared, the master fell ill and has not seen any improvement so far. His body hasn’t recovered. How can he withstand such a blow?
His master was now old after all.
Their group had just left, and when they were about to leave the capital on their way, they saw a team of cavalry rushing over and blocking Chu Yan’s way.
“His Royal Highness, the emperor has an urgent edict.”
Chu Yan frowned: “What’s the matter?”
The guard shook his head: “The emperor didn’t say anything, he just said that His Royal Highness must enter the palace immediately, he has an important matter to discuss.”
“Can’t it be 2 days later?” Chu Yan was so anxious, how could he still be in the mood to deal with the affairs of the palace? He only wanted to find Bai Zhi, and he couldn’t take care of the rest for the time being.
The guard looked embarrassed: “His Royal Highness, the emperor sent his people to come to stop His Highness. The emperor issued a death order and said that they must ask His Highness to return to the palace, otherwise, none of our brothers will survive.”
Chu Yan’s eyes swept behind the guards, there were eight people in total, and they were the first-class masters of the Yulin Army. He could deal with five by himself, but what about the remaining three? Zhou Awu’s martial skills were very good, but it was not enough to be able to fight those three, let alone his other men.
What was the emperor trying to do? Could it be that he didn’t want to let him go on purpose?
No matter what it was, this time, he couldn’t shirk.
“Okay, this prince will follow you into the palace.” He gave Zhou Awu a wink on the side.
