New Life of Broken Cedar - C72
The time went back to the day before.
After the guards had all run past him, Mo Gu Han gradually realized that the assassin from before had run towards his own bedroom.
Damn it!
Mo Gu Han activated his Qing Gong and with a few light taps, he arrived in front of the Li Tang Palace. Inside, there were a few dim lights shining in the room, at that time, he would be standing in front of the door with a huge living person, no one reporting in yet.
Mo Gu Han pushed open the door and the cold air rushed in without a trace of warmth.
“Why don’t you prepare some heat stoves? So few people in the palace? ” Mo Gu Han asked the servant who had just caught up with him with a gloomy face.
The servant then shook his head and stuttered, “Empress, esteemed wangfei said there is no need.”
Mo Gu Han ignored him and walked back to the room inside. It was dark inside. After thinking for a while, it was normal to turn out the lights since this was the same time as sleeping.
Once again, he pushed the door open. There was no smell of blood in the room. He let out a breath of relief, but when his eyes got used to the darkness, the bed was covered with the same untouched bedding. It was as clean and tidy as if no one had ever lived here before.
If he hadn’t gone to the Clear Stream Restaurant that day to personally bring Gu Moyan back, seeing the current environment, he wouldn’t have believed that these people would have stayed here for a few days.
Mo Gu Han waved his hand and the room was instantly lit up as if it was daytime.
He walked forward and stopped on the tea table. There were two cups of tea on the table. One of them was half empty while the other remained untouched. Mo Gu Han reached out his hand to touch the outside of the teacup. It was still warm. It was obvious that the two of them had just left after sitting down and chatting for a short while. They should have left before his future, but he believed that they were not far from him now.
Who could it be?
Mo Gu Han came out of the Li Tang Palace and looked at the black mass of guards outside. Each of them hurried him and reported silently that they could not find the assassin.
“Trash!” He couldn’t even find an assassin. Tomorrow, I will go to the torture chamber and receive twenty lashes each. ” Mo Gu Han stood there, his entire body emitting a strong sense of anger. What made him angry was not that he did not find the assassin, but that he felt that these guards in front of him, who no one knew about, had actually left his palace.
“A group of people, follow me to the Ximen Estate.” After saying that, before his men could react, Mo Gu Han was already walking in front with his hands behind his back.
The people at the back looked at each other in dismay. They could not understand why they were still heading to the Yuanfu Realm at such a late hour. They could only doze off and follow Mo Gu Han to the Ximen Estate.
“Enter. Search for Imperial Concubine. Is she inside?” Mo Gu Han did not care about the expression of Xi Men Qing who wanted to stop him. He waved his hand and gave the order.
Ximen Qingfeng understood. He was afraid that Mo Gu Han would lose Young Master Gu and come to his residence to look for someone, but ever since Wu Qi’s incident, he had never seen Gu Mo Yan again.
He actually wanted Gu Moyan to be there so that Mo Gu Han wouldn’t show any displeasure towards him or anything else, but only said, “Your Majesty still came to my estate to look for someone at night. I’m afraid that Your Majesty might be disappointed. Your subject hasn’t met Imperial Concubine Gu.”
As Mo Gu Han was thinking, he lifted his head and glanced at Qing Shui. He did not say anything, but it was obvious that he did not know the result. He did not believe Xi Men Qingfeng’s one-sided story.
“Sigh, this subject doesn’t even dare to think about the king’s last fierce warning.” Ximen Qingfeng thought back to what happened last time and shuddered in the night wind.
