Chapter 697: Holding on, many people looking for the young master
Envoy Duan ignored the waiter's panic and started talking to himself.
"Princess Ye? Princess Ye's name is Yun Mujiu?"
"Young Master? Young Miss? Young Master Mu?"
The same pair of clear almond-shaped eyes!
"Bang!" Envoy Duan smashed the teacup on the table. "I just feel like Princess Ye looks a little familiar!"
It turned out that Yun Mujiu had come to Soul Stealing Yuanxi to purchase supplies a few months ago. When they first met, Yun Mujiu was wearing a veil and dressed as a man, and he had only seen Yun Mujiu's eyes.
"Special Envoy Duan, what's wrong?" The guy was shocked by Special Envoy Duan's sudden action.
"Haha! It's okay! I just recognized someone."
Every time supplies were taken, either Yun Mujiu himself brought people to get them, or Yun Mujiu sent someone else to get them. He didn't even know that the handsome young man was Yun Mujiu!
"So 'he' is the Night Princess!"
Envoy Duan thought: neither he nor Soul-stealing Yuanxi had any hatred towards the Night Palace. During this period of time, the Pavilion Master was in seclusion, and he had been busy with various matters related to Soul-stealing. How could he have so much free time to pay attention to the princess of a prince?
At this time, the special envoy remembered Yun Mujiu, not because he wanted to do anything, but he suddenly realized that the two figures in his mind overlapped, which felt a bit strange.
The handsome young man who came to forge weapons and buy medicines, and the Princess Ye who was good at martial arts and medicine, were the same person.
Special Envoy Duan picked up the teacup again and looked at the guy who had been working beside him for many years.
"Is there any new news from the Pavilion Master?"
"Replying to Special Envoy Duan, the Pavilion Master has sent a message saying that he will be out of seclusion in about ten days. During this period, we need to do our best to complete the tasks assigned by the Pavilion Master."
Envoy Duan frowned, "We have been looking for more than two years, but still can't find the young master. Even if we try our best and use all means before the Pavilion Master comes out of seclusion, it is not certain that we can find the young master in just ten days."
He waved his hand, "Forget it. No matter what, we have to make our attitude clear. At least it would be good to find some new clues. We put in more effort, so that the Pavilion Master can spend less time when he comes out of seclusion."
"Little understands."
Manager Duan ordered, "Send my orders to each department and continue to search for the young master."
It has been more than two years, and I still can't find out where the little boy is. I just hope that he is still alive and well in this world.
After a cup of tea, Special Envoy Duan stood up and left with his servants.
Shortly after they left, two men came out of the next room, followed by a young man dressed like an ordinary citizen.
The three returned to the carriage, and one of them asked, "Wei Song, did you hear everything clearly?"
One person replied, "Wei Bai, I can only hear a little bit. Special Envoy Duan is a good martial artist and is very alert. We can't get too close to him and eavesdrop."
Upon hearing this, Wei Bai nodded slightly and looked at the other person. "Ying Er, you have good hearing. When Wei Song and I return to the palace to report the situation to the prince, you can add some additional information about what you heard."
Ying Er said coldly with a handsome face like a guard, "I understand."
...
The various pieces of information circulating among the people were not secrets. People inside the palace knew something about what people outside the palace were discussing.
Inside Fengyi Palace, the Queen curled her lips coldly when she heard the servants convey the outside world's speculation about the Prince.
"Empress, should we send someone to suppress the news?" asked the personal nanny.
"No need. Suppressing something that everyone already knows will not be of much use. Instead, it will only create a bad effect of making things worse." The prince's reputation was not bad, and there would be a chance to clear it up in the future.
The queen looked at her nails dyed red by cardamom and said, "The Night King, you really have a good way!" She knew that the bad news about the princes must have been caused by the Night King.
Of course, there were also other forces in the court involved, especially Concubine Yu’s family.
The Gao family has never been on good terms with her, and now that they have found a good opportunity to step on the prince, everyone wants to destroy the mother and son as soon as possible!
The queen ordered: "Send a message to my father, tell him that the Gao family has been too idle lately and needs to be suppressed a little." Humph, she can't confront the Night King head-on, but can't she deal with the people from Concubine Yu's faction?
"Now that the Fifth Prince is a useless man, how dare Concubine Yu and the Gao family dare to go against me so boldly! If the Fifth Prince recovers, wouldn't they dare to step on my head directly!"
Nanny Pei and the palace maids and eunuchs quickly knelt down and said, "Please calm down, Queen!"
"Haha." The Queen chuckled and said grimly, "I didn't do anything to you. Why are you so scared? Hurry up and get up."
Nanny Pei and the others nodded, thanked them and stood up.
The Queen added: "I only assumed that the Gao family would be so bold if the Fifth Prince recovered. However, the current situation is that the Fifth Prince will never recover. No one in this world can cure him."
So, what do they need to be afraid of? Not at all!
At this time, a secret guard came to report that the queen had dismissed everyone else and only left behind Nanny Pei.
"Empress, there's a reply from Nantai."
"Say it."
"Reporting to the Queen, the people in Nantai have been investigating for quite some time, and also investigated the Nantai branch of Mushi Jiuyou Pavilion. However, they still cannot find more information about the identity of Nether Nine Layers."
The Queen had a cold face. It turned out that the people in Mu Shi Jiuyou Pavilion were not simple.
The Queen asked, "Have you made any other new discoveries?"
"Your Majesty, I have made a small discovery. Didn't you send someone to investigate the whereabouts of Netherworld Nine in Nantai?"
The secret guard paused and said in a deep voice: "Although my subordinates could not find out the identity of Netherworld Nineth Level, after investigation, they still could not find any trace of Netherworld Nineth Level in Nantai."
"Oh?" The Queen narrowed her eyes slightly, "So, the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld should not be in Nantai. Or the place where the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld appears most often is Zhongyue Country..."
"It should be." The secret guard was reluctant to say it, but this was his guess.
"My queen, could it be that the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld is Zhong Yue's man?" Nanny Pei guessed.
"Not necessarily. If he often appears in a certain place, he is not necessarily from that place." The Queen did not dare to guarantee it. Just a period of search could not prove anything. "Maybe the Netherworld Nine Layers has just appeared frequently in Zhongyue recently!"
"In addition, among the four countries, Zhongyue is the strongest, so the branches of the major assassin organizations in Zhongyue are also the largest. This shows that Youming Jiuchong may also be from other countries, but he stayed in Zhongyue for a long time for better development."
After the queen finished her analysis, she ordered the secret guards to continue tracking down information about the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld.
Then he gave the order: "Send more people to continue searching for the missing young master."
At the same time, the Night King's Palace also received the news sent back by Wei Song and Wei Bai.
Ye Xiaohan's eyes were deep as he pondered, "What is the origin of Special Envoy Duan?"
