Chapter 333 Yuhua, go wake up your sister-in-law!
Upon hearing this, Li Duwei quickly opened the imperial edict in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please accept the order!"
Everyone present knelt down immediately.
Lieutenant Li continued to read the imperial edict solemnly: "Because Prince Xuan failed in his campaign to suppress the bandits, all the soldiers he brought with him were wiped out, and Prince Xuan is missing. I now order Prince Chen to be the chief commander in suppressing the bandits, and Lieutenant Li to be the deputy commander. They must immediately go to Wuzi Mountain to suppress the bandits and retrieve Prince Xuan. I decree this!"
The Prince's heart sank, but he still reached out to take the imperial edict, "I obey your order!"
After he stood up, he immediately took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and instructed: "Give the medicine to the Fourth Princess and ask her to feed Princess Lu one pill every day! Don't stop! The remaining two bottles are at the bedside of the study. If I am not back yet, remember to give them to the princess!"
Hearing this, Zhou Qing said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I will go with you to suppress the bandits!"
"No need, remember to do what I told you yesterday. If you have any questions, go to Prince Jing first!"
Mu Yanchen's face was full of majesty, and he would not allow him to refuse at all.
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Captain Li and said, "Go gather some people. Let's go!"
Li Duwei quickly made a gesture of invitation, "Your Highness, please. Everyone is ready. We just need you to get on the carriage and we can set off for Wuzi Mountain!"
Zhou Qing watched Mu Yanchen leave the palace. Thinking of the dangers of Wuzi Mountain, he immediately put aside his worries and ran quickly to the backyard.
Chen Garden, as soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw the Fourth Princess and Prince Jing and his wife having breakfast in the pavilion.
"Your subordinate greets the princess, Prince Jing, and Princess Jing!"
"No need to be polite!" The fourth princess guessed that he came here at this time to invite Ji Yunchu to have breakfast with her eldest brother, so she kindly reminded him: "The emperor's sister-in-law played mahjong until late last night and is still sleeping now. You should ask her to have lunch with your eldest brother!"
When Zhou Qing heard that someone was still sleeping, he immediately became anxious, "Princess, please go and wake up the princess!"
Prince Jing saw that he looked strange and keenly realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly urged, "Yuhua, go wake up your sister-in-law!"
When the fourth princess saw that her second brother had a serious face, she immediately reacted and quickly stood up and ran towards the side room.
Prince Jing then turned to look at Zhou Qing and asked solemnly, "What happened?"
Zhou Qing was worried about Mu Yanchen, and he didn't know how long it would take the Fourth Princess to call someone out, so he simply told Prince Jing the truth about the imperial edict, and also informed Prince Jing of what Mu Yanchen had asked him and the secret guards to investigate.
Finally, he continued, "Prince Jing, please pass this medicine to the Fourth Princess. Please ask her to feed Princess Lu one pill every day without interruption. The remaining two bottles should be placed at the bedside of the study.
I am worried about you, Prince, and would like to follow you. Please do everything you ask me to do. I will take my leave now!"
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Prince Jing to respond, he immediately walked out of the pavilion, jumped up and flew away.
Seeing him leave in such a hurry, Mo Yuning couldn't help but worry and grabbed her husband and asked, "Prince, I heard that the bandits in Wuzi Mountain are very fierce. Now Prince Xuan has led so many people and failed, and some people are missing. Do you think that big brother will be in trouble this time?"
Prince Jing frowned: "Of course there is danger, otherwise he wouldn't have told me where the remaining medicine is. Why does Father always ask my eldest brother to go whenever he has something to do? Hasn't he always loved my eldest brother? Why did he send him this time even though he knew it was so dangerous? Couldn't it be my second brother? My fifth brother or my eldest brother?"
Mo Yuning saw that Prince Jing was silent, with worry written all over his face. Without waiting for him to speak, she guessed that Mu Yanchen's trip was very dangerous. That was why she immediately stood up and walked quickly towards the side room.
Ji Yunchu was sleeping soundly when he was forcibly woken up by the fourth princess. He was a little reluctant, "Princess, I'm still very sleepy. Can you sleep for another hour before coming to see me?"
"Imperial sister-in-law, wake up even if you are sleepy. Something has happened to our eldest brother!" The fourth princess raised her voice deliberately so that she could hear.
Sure enough, Ji Yunchu suddenly opened his eyes and immediately asked, "What happened to him?"
The fourth princess was stunned, "He...he...he..."
It's over, it's over. I should have asked about the situation before urging him to get up! How can I say this? I can't say anything that is not good for my big brother so early in the morning!
Just when she was still unable to come up with any further information about "him", Mo Yuning, who had already walked to the entrance of the inner room, immediately responded: "He was sent to Wuzi Mountain to suppress the bandits!"
"Suppressing bandits in Wuzi Mountain? Isn't that King Xuan's job? Why was he sent there?" Ji Yunchu frowned, but also started to get out of bed, dress and wash up.
Mo Yuning took the initiative to help her get dressed and explained, "All of King Xuan's men are dead, and King Xuan is missing. Captain Li just came over to read the imperial edict and left with his men!"
When Ji Yunchu heard that the matter was so serious, he couldn't help but become worried and even quickened his washing pace.
She sat down in front of the dressing table, raised her hand to stop Mo Yuning from helping her comb her hair, took the comb from him and quickly braided a big braid.
"Okay, stay in the mansion, I'm leaving!"
She stood up and strode outside.
