Gu Chaoyan and Prime Minister Chu headed towards the wing-palace.

As they came to the gate, Gu Chaoyan smelled the light scent of medicine, and saw many imperial doctors there. They were all there checking up on the King.

Gu Chaoyan looked through the imperial doctors and saw the King lying in bed. The King looked as if he had been thoroughly frightened, and injured. He must have been hurt by the metal humans as well, but since he was the King and was defended by the imperial army, he wasn’t badly injured at all.

Prime Minister Chu walked towards the King.

The King got very excited at the sight of Prime Minister Chu. “Prime Minister Chu, what is going on outside? Have you dealt with it? If I am not safe here, just get me out of here!”

!!

His mind was totally in a mess.

He had tried to turn the metal humans into his own troops, and planned to arrange a few to support the troops at Jiayu Pa.s.s. He even intended to make use of these things to take over a town in North Qi. However, these things did not obey his order. They had hurt so many imperial soldiers and him too!

The King was furious, but also afraid. He had witnessed how insignificant his troops were in front of those things. They were either badly injured or killed.

Prime Minister Chu held a very calm look on his face and said, “All is fine, they are under control. The imperial army is mostly injured or dead, and things are being dealt with right now. You need to pa.s.s on the order to the imperial hospital.”

Actually…

Prime Minister Chu was very disappointed.

What happened at Li County was already a lesson the King should have learned, but the King had done such an unexpected thing causing the guards to die, just like how they fought at Jiayu Pa.s.s. However, they died in the court.

How could such a thing happen?

Prime Minister Chu felt very distressed and confused.

Hearing that all was well, the King felt slightly more motivated. He was reminded of Mu Yihan, who caused it all. He asked with a cold look on his face. “Where is Mu Yihan? Bring him here!”

“He was already gone when I arrived.” Prime Minister Chu answered obediently.

He was gone?

The King’s expression twisted.

Mu Yihan!

He had reached a deal with Mu Yihan regarding the collaboration, and Mu Yihan betrayed him! How dare he!?

The King’s expression sank and he said seriously, “Since everything is arranged well, Prime Minister Chu, you can leave it alone. The most important thing is to find Mu Yihan!”

Chu Tian was startled for a second, but nodded.

Only then did the King feel slightly more a.s.sured.

Hearing the arrangement, Gu Chaoyan could not help but shake her head, as she started to walk outside the palace.

The King was settled here, but she had no idea what was going on outside. She did not have many friends, and Madame Bai from the Bai Family was not here whilst the Chu Family had been arranged well by Sword One. They should be fine too.

However, she wondered what was going on with Chu Xiwen.

Gu Chaoyan walked out of the wing-palace and came to Sword One. Gu Chaoyan asked tiredly, “Where is Elder Miss of the Chu Family? Is she doing well?”

Sword One had a very complicated look on her face.

“Elder Miss of the Chu Family is… well, Elder Miss…”
