"Speak." Ye Lianhe tidied up his somewhat messy clothes and replied. His complexion returned to his usual icy face.

"To reply your highness, the wangfei's shop was blocked by a group of people an hour ago. They said that a lot of them had eaten in her shop yesterday, but had all been poisoned and died mysteriously."

"Is this true?" Ye Lianhe was a little surprised. Although he knew that Luo Lingwei usually did things in a casual manner, she was not ambiguous in her actions. Why did such a strange matter happen today?

"No, there must be something fishy about this." This store had been in business for many months and there had never been any mishaps. Why would something like this happen today? Moreover, by now, everyone in the capital knew that this restaurant was the life of the Grand Dominance Manor. Even beggars would not dare to walk here, yet there were so many people who were willing to cause trouble. There must be a conspiracy behind it, and those who dared to make people go against them, aside from their two nephews, there was no one else in the world.

When Ye Lianhe thought of this, he couldn't help but frown and ask, "Where's Zhao Wei?"

"Reporting to the Prince, Zhao Wei had already tricked everyone into the restaurant and arranged for the death soldiers to await his orders."

"Nonsense!" In his heart, he thought that Zhao Wei had spent too much time on the sidelines. Even though he had a lot of experience, he was still too rough when it came to handling matters.

"Tell him to quickly evacuate the men. Don't let anyone catch him and inform the officials at the Ministry of Justice." "Also, bring a few people with you to investigate who these people are. If there really is a dead body in their house, tell the Board of Justice to send someone to watch over them and not to let them do anything." At this moment, Nightingale had already completely calmed down. He could see what Ye Feian and Ye Yihao were planning to do, and according to his own judgement, he planned to arrange everything accordingly. The scouts quickly spread the news to the hidden spies that Ye Lianhe had set up. An invisible team quietly began to operate.

On the other side, Luo Lingwei and Luo Yang rode their horses and arrived at Cloud Gaze Mountain, which was about five miles away from the capital. However, they found that their thoughts were too simple. The villagers told the two that there were a total of five paths on Cloud Gaze Mountain. The two of them did not know which path Xiao Bai took to go up the mountain. If the two of them went down the wrong path, it would take a lot of time. However, the two of them only had twenty-four hours, so there was no time to lose.

"Princess, please wait!" Just as Luo Lingwei was getting anxious, a loud shout came from behind her. Then, two fully armed personal guards came forward. When the two of them reached Luo Lingwei, they dismounted.

"To reply wangfei, your subordinate was the prince's personal guard today, Zhao Hu. There are many fierce beasts in the mountains, and Your Highness ordered your subordinate and Zhang Long to come and protect wangfei." The two of them said in unison.

"Get up, didn't Your Highness say to send someone to help me? "Where is he?" Seeing that someone had arrived, Luo Lingwei felt slightly more at ease and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Reporting to consort, the rest of the people will be here shortly." The two of them clasped their hands and said, "Princess, please rest here for now. Zhang Long, you protect Princess Consort here. I'll go to the village ahead to find out if there are any news related to Miss Bai."

"Go. Quickly come back. Remember, don't scare the villagers." After Luo Lingwei's order, Zhao Hufei also left.

Now that she had slightly relaxed, a feeling of hunger suddenly welled up. Luo Lingwei felt weak and sat down in the shade of a tree. Xiaoqing had served Luo Lingwei for more than half a year, so she understood Luo Lingwei quite well. Seeing Luo Lingwei sit down weakly, she knew that she was hungry, so she opened the wooden box on her back and took out a piece of dry rations. She also took off the water bag on her waist and gave it to Luo Lingwei.

At this time, Luo Lingwei could no longer be bothered with her ladylike image. She picked up the dry rations and began to eat them in big mouthfuls. Halfway through eating, he told Xiaoqing to bring out two more rations and gave one to Zhang Long, telling Xiaoqing to eat one herself. Zhang Long also knew that this wangfei treated people extremely well and never looked down on the servants in the house. As such, he did not decline any further and also took the dry rations and began to eat as well.

The three of them had just finished eating, and before they could wipe their mouths, they saw more than ten people dressed in the clothes of the servants of the King's Manor flying over.

At this time, Zhao Hu also returned from the village with a serious expression.

To reply Princess, your subordinate has heard from the village that they did see a little girl carrying a basket up the mountain yesterday, but before she went up the mountain, a few big men also came up. It looks like they were cursing when they went down the mountain, as if they were saying something like they were almost discovered. Zhao Hu told them all the information he had gathered.

The system quest allowed him to save a person, and the time was only 24 hours. Previously, he had thought that Little White had accidentally fallen off a cliff, but after hearing what Zhao Hu said, he was sure that Little White had been captured. However, he couldn't figure out who was trying to catch Little White and where did they throw her after they caught her.
