It seems that the emperor is determined to protect the queen this time.
At this time, Dequan walked up to Nangong Shuo, leaned down and whispered in his ear a few times. He saw Nangong Shuo's eyelids moving slightly, and then nodded calmly.
"Okay, retreat!"
After saying that, he glanced at Wang Yong with a cold look again, and then left with a puff of sleeves.
Imperial Study Room——
"A Shuo, what's going on? Why is Xiao Yu missing?"
Gu Zixu, who had been away for a few days, had just returned to Beijing when he heard that there were a lot of rumors in the capital, and there were all kinds of speculations.
This news made his whole heart clenched tightly, and he entered the palace all the way before he could return to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Xiao Yu's sudden disappearance gave some people with evil intentions in the palace something to talk about. More importantly, the person who took Xiao Yu away was unknown. She is pregnant now. What if she encounters danger?
.
If he was given a choice, he would really hope that Xiao Yu escaped on his own. After all, from the very beginning, he planned to secretly rescue Xiao Yu.
He can do many things that Ashuo is inconvenient to do for him, and he will never allow Xiaoyu to be harmed in the slightest.
Nangong Shuo's brows have never really relaxed since he escorted Shangguancheng back to the capital.
Because of the handling of Shangguan's family affairs, he had already been forced by the ministers to have no breathing space, and Xiaoyu's sudden disappearance made it impossible for him to calm down and deal with other matters.
He frowned deeply, pursed his thin lips in silence, and showed a trace of self-blame in his eyes.
"I have asked Commander Gu to investigate this matter, but there is no news yet!"
After saying that, he punched the beam in front of him with a heavy punch, making a slight cracking sound between his finger bones.
"A Shuo, don't blame yourself. The person who took Xiao Yu away may not have had any bad intentions. Maybe, it might be a good thing for Xiao Yu."
Gu Zixu could only comfort Nangong Shuo and himself with these words.
He knew that Nangong Shuo was having a harder time than him at this time.
On the one hand, we have to worry about Xiaoyu's safety, and on the other hand, we have to face the two-sided attack from the ministers, who are pressing harder and harder.
Nangong Shuo remained silent, his eyes looking particularly dim.
Then, he handed Gu Zixu a piece of paper, "This was left by the person who took Xiaoyu away."
Gu Zixu's eyes were startled. He took the paper handed over by Nangong Shuo and took a look at it. The note on it made Gu Zixu's brows relax slightly.
"Judging from the note, the person who took Xiaoyu away may not have wanted to hurt Xiaoyu."
"I have also thought about it, but what is the purpose of this person taking Xiaoyu away, and what does it mean to return it after the thing is done? What does he want Xiaoyu to do?"
Although judging from the note, Shangguan Yu is not in any danger for the time being, but at most it is only for the time being, but what happens later.
Now only finding Xiao Yu can make his heart settle down a little.
Gu Zixu also had the same concerns in his heart. Hearing what Nangong Shuo said, he pursed his lips and remained silent.
"It's useless for us to be anxious now. We should wait for the news from our second uncle."
In the end, Gu Zixu could only say this sentence.
Then, he frowned again, looked at Nangong Shuo, and said, "Have you decided how to deal with the Shangguan family's matter?"
It was another question that gave Nangong Shuo a headache. Nangong Shuo frowned again. After being silent for a while, he said, "I don't want to deal with the Shangguan family's affairs in a hurry now. I just want to find Xiao Yu as soon as possible!"
