The first rays of the morning sun shone on the ground.

Almost everyone that Duan Chengxuan had sent out returned empty-handed. Beside him, Duan Chengyu personally watched as Duan Chengyu replaced all of the guards at the city gates and used a swift and decisive method to dispatch people from all over the place. They split into four groups and headed towards any possible route.

Even so, Sky Flame City was still extremely quiet, as though no one knew what was going on.

"Where else is there in the city that hasn't been searched?" Duan Chengxuan suddenly looked at Xiao Hai beside him and pulled on the reins, stopping on the spot.

"There are also the shops on Flower Street and South Street." Xiao Hai asked curiously, "Does Your Highness think that they might still be in Sky Flame?"

"Send someone to investigate immediately." Duan Cheng Xuan's expression instantly sank.

It was all his fault for being preoccupied with the arrangement of the troops in the past, but he had long since forgotten that this was the safest place and also the safest place.

"Then Your Highness, are we still going out to search?"

"Yes." Duan Cheng Xuan couldn't place all her hopes on a possible outcome.

He wasn't the only one who had sent people to investigate, the Prime Minister's Estate had also sent people to look for him. Gu Cheng discovered that once Yun Qingyang left, they had lost all means of communication with Madam Yun.

Liu'er sent people to search for them one by one. She didn't forget to ask Qi Lin, "Duke Jing, do you think they haven't left Sky Flame?"

"That's what it means." Qi Lin nodded. He assigned a few women to search, while he went to find Duan Chengyu to talk about this matter, and to look for him along the way.

Four hours later, the ladies of Wind Listening House used the military order to bring one of their mothers out to Duan Chengyu, "This mother was stuttering at that time, I'm afraid she knows something."

"That's right, that's right. Moreover, her brothel clearly had an argument earlier, but she refused to admit it. It's a scam!"

The few girls gathered together, chattering with righteous indignation.

The old procuress just knelt on the ground and trembled, "Your Highness, please observe this clearly. I do not wish to speak of the trouble, but I do not wish to bring it to the government. It's the same in the other buildings! "

Duan Chengyu, on the other hand, didn't even have time to speak. When Duan Chengxuan heard the news, he was wearing a long black robe, and his eyes were bloodshot from not sleeping for the night. Xiao Hai didn't have time to stop him, as the long blade in Duan Chengxuan's hand had already pierced into the bawd's scream.

The ladies of the Wind Listening Pavilion all screamed as they retreated. Liu'er could only lead them away with a dark face.

"Royal Uncle!" Duan Chengyu abruptly stood up. He didn't expect Duan Chengxuan's movements to be so fast.

Blood splattered everywhere. The bawd covered her shoulder and shouted, "I did not do it on purpose! Those people took the girls from our building to threaten them! I have to help! I didn't even know it was a princess! I really don't know! "

As she spoke, the old procuress could only hold onto the painful wound and carefully explain what had happened.

"However, where did they leave to? They must have already escaped by now, please spare my life!" The old procuress kowtowed a few times, recounting how Princess Jing had injured her daughter.

"Do not report it, lock her up within the imperial family, and drag her to the Heavenly Prison. Everyone else, guard the city gates. Another group of people will go investigate if there are any secret passages that lead away from Sky Flame." Duan Cheng Xuan said with a cold gaze, then she stood up and walked outside.

The old procuress fell lifelessly to the ground and was taken away after a short while.

Duan Chengyu couldn't help himself from sighing as he gazed at Duan Cheng Xuan's back.

He was starting to forget that Duan Chengxuan was an impatient type. Thinking about it this way, the current Sixth Prince was decisive in his slaughter, and Duan Chengxuan would only be better than him.

However, even at night, he still did not hear any news about Gu Daiyan.

The summer night was supposed to be sultry, but today it was raining heavily. Duan Chengxuan returned to the Duke's Mansion in exhaustion, and Su Yu Wan saw that he was drenched in sweat, so she hurriedly supported him, "Why do you need to do it yourself? With so many of them unable to find the wangfei, what can you do by yourself? "Big brother Xuan, if you're sick …"

"Wan'er." Duan Cheng Xuan interrupted her and used his icy cold hand to touch the back of her hand. "If you're gone, I'll find you even if I have to dig three feet into the ground."

"But wangfei …"

"Your Highness! "Just now, a team of horses charged out of the city when they were about to close the city gates!" A soldier rushed in through the rain.

Duan Chengxuan immediately slapped his hands on the table and flew into the rain.

Su Yuwan, who had been left behind, swept the dishes on the table to the floor. After a while, she called for Embroidery: "Send a message to Zhu Yan!"

He quickly arrived at the city gate. The soldiers at the gate didn't expect the mirage to be so bold. They weren't able to react in time. The two people that were caught had long since swallowed the poison in their teeth and died without proof.

Duan Chengxuan's face was gloomy as he pondered on where they should go, but the other soldier instead rushed over from outside the city. "Your Highness!" In the unmarked cemetery, a new cave entrance was discovered, which could lead to a hidden mountain forest outside the Imperial Palace. It seems to be a small path that was used to throw corpses at the palace maids and eunuchs a long time ago.

Which way did he go?

"Ghost, Chengshan, call for the men to come with me. The rest, follow the direction of the city gate and chase them." Duan Cheng Xuan jumped onto her horse and was no longer able to attend to the days when she was about to leave Sky Flame.

Xiao Hai hurriedly rushed over, but he didn't even see Duan Chengxuan's back.

He patted his head and said, "You really don't know how to do great things! Now that you have returned to Sky Flame, I want to disarm you. Don't sacrifice your future for the sake of a Gu Liuyan! "

"Commander Xiao, could it be that life is more important than rules?" Duan Chengyu rode his horse to his side and looked down at him from above.

Xiao Hai looked at him coldly, "To Prince Yu, the rules are certainly more important than the lives."

Duan Chengyu snorted with a single syllable, and finally spurred his horse forward, deciding to bring another group of people with him.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Hai left the city gate to find an excuse for Duan Chengxuan to leave, but he didn't see the windows of the Wind Listening Pavilion open wide.

Liu'er's sleeves had already been drenched by the splashing rain, but she continued to stare out the window. "Master's hopes have finally failed. I wonder just where she is right now."

The seductive woman stood at the side, hesitantly pouring water. She smiled at her, "Her life might be as big as master's. If the heavens want them to be in such a situation, there's nothing we can do."

"If Prince Jing really does not like Princess Consort Jing, then that would be what Master wants." Liu'er held her cheek, leaving a half sheet of paper with only one sentence written on it.

Find Princess Jing as soon as possible and send her to her mistress.

The beautiful woman walked over to take a look. Liu'er had already tossed the paper slip into the heavy rain. The woman rebuked, "Tell me, why do you think this mistress cares so much about Crown Princess Jing?"
