After traveling through time, I was spotted by the new emperor

Chapter 300 Shui Changqing Disappears

Ye Wuwei has been very uneasy in recent days. He always feels that something bad is going to happen.

But he was not sure whether the blame would fall on Qi Wushuang or him?

Or should it be Shui Changqing?

That day, he finally knew who was to blame.

Lei Dahong sent back an urgent report:

Shui Changqing is missing.

Shui Changqing secretly went to Nanling to negotiate with the nobles of Nanling. After the negotiation, Mu Yili's uncle sent his confidant to lead Shui Changqing and others out of Nanling and return to the military camp.

But all the people who returned disappeared.

Afterwards, Mu Yili's uncle sent many people to search secretly. They found the bodies of other people, but not Shui Changqing.

Lei Dahong's letter also described the peace talks between Shui Changqing and Mu Yili's uncle:

The peace talks went smoothly!

After reading the letter, Ye Wuwei had only one thought:

He wants to go to Nanling to find Shui Changqing!

Since the master’s body has not been found, it means that the master is still alive!

The master is alive but did not show up. Either he was injured and temporarily unable to move, or he was trapped somewhere.

No matter which one it is, the master will definitely leave clues.

And he is the only one who is most familiar with the master and can find the clues left by the master.

Ye Wuwei called Yao Guangzhi over:

"Get ready and bring twenty people with me to Nanling. We'll set off today."

As for not telling others about receiving a mission, it is an iron rule of the Qi'an Department and Ye Wuwei does not need to specifically instruct him.

Afterwards, Ye Wuwei called Fang Datong, Liu Mingshao and others over and made arrangements for the work of the Qi'an Department:

"I'm going to be away for a while, and I'll leave the Qi'an Department's affairs to you all during this time."

After arranging everything, Ye Wuwei returned to the palace.

Ye Wuwei first returned to the palace to pack up some poisons, antidotes, etc., which he got from Ye Hongxia.

To be precise, it was made by Ye Changtian.

Then Ye Wuwei took some gold and two sets of clothes and put them into a backpack.

Carrying his backpack, Ye Wuwei went to the side hall of Taiji Hall.

As soon as Ye Wuwei stepped into the hall, Qi Wushuang noticed him.

Looking at the backpack on Ye Wuwei's back, Qi Wushuang's expression changed: "Where are you going?"

Everyone else in the hall stopped discussing.

Qi Wushuang ordered: "You guys step back first."

Chu Fuchi took the others away and looked at Ye Wuwei with some worry as he left.

The expression on Ye Wuwei's face was heavier than ever before.

Even when Ye Wuwei was preparing to go to the north alone, his expression was not half as heavy as it is now.

Ye Wuwei handed Lei Dahong's letter to Qi Wushuang.

After reading the letter, Qi Wushuang couldn't say anything to dissuade him.

Because he knows:

Shui Changqing is as important to Ye Wuwei as he is to him!

Ye Wuwei used to take risks alone to help him solve problems, and now that Shui Changqing is missing, Ye Wuwei can't just ignore it.

"How long are you going?"

"I don't know. But I have arranged everything for the Qi'an tribe."

"Is it possible that Mu Yili betrayed Master?"

“She has no motive.

Her purpose was to avenge her brother and seize power at the same time. I agreed to her request. Her uncles and others also wanted to nominate her to be the chieftain.

And I fed her poison.

Unless she is determined to die, that is not the case."

“Was it done by someone who was present that day?

He openly joined Mu Yili's uncle, but in reality he was Mu Yiyang's man?"

“That’s very likely.

But I'll have to investigate it myself to find out what's going on."

Only a few people in Chamdo knew that Mu Yili persuaded the Nanling nobles to attack Mu Yiyang from both inside and outside, not even Chu Fuchi knew about it.

So the news should not have been leaked from Chamdo.

"If this is true, the imperial court's plan to attack Nanling with the help of Mu Yili's uncle has failed.

Then it will be even more dangerous for you to go to Nanling."

“No matter what the situation is, I will go and save Master.

There is a special way for Master and I to communicate. As long as Master is awake, he will definitely leave me a secret code."

Qi Wushuang wrote a secret decree, sealed it, and handed it to Ye Wuwei:

"You gave the Qi Wang waist badge I gave you to Master. Just in case, take this secret decree with you."

Ye Wuwei took the secret decree and glanced at it:

The above content means that seeing the secret decree is like seeing Qi Wushuang himself. All officials of the Qi Dynasty, regardless of their rank, must obey Ye Wuwei's orders after seeing the secret decree.

Ye Wuwei put the secret order away and said, "I hope it won't be used."

Qi Wushuang was still worried: "Should I inform Senior Ye to go with you?"

"No, even though she lived in the dense forests of Anping County for a few years, the terrain of Nanling is completely different from that of the dense forests of Anping County. She would still be in danger if she went there."

……

Nanling

Mu Yili has had almost no rest since Shui Changqing disappeared.

Mu Yili was worried that if something really happened to Shui Changqing, Ye Wuwei would launch a war against Nanling.

In other words, the imperial court launched a major war against Nanling!

This is not what Mu Yili wants to see!

Mu Yili is different from Mu Yimei.

Mu Yimei was raised by Princess Yunshang as a girl from a wealthy family in Changdu, with the intention of marrying her back to Changdu. Therefore, Mu Yimei does not have a strong sense of belonging to Nanling.

In Mu Yimei's heart: the prosperous Chamdo is her hometown.

Therefore, Mu Yimei did not feel any sense of discomfort after marrying into Chamdo, and she quickly integrated into the circle of wealthy ladies in Chamdo.

But Mu Yili felt like an outsider every day in Chamdo, and she didn't fit in with the noble ladies there.

Because Mu Yili's roots are in Nanling.

Mu Yili’s father’s and mother’s ancestors were all from Nanling, so Nanling is Mu Yili’s hometown!

Mu Yili married into Chamdo not because of its prosperity, but because she wanted to help her brother seize the position of chieftain.

But the opposite happened!

In the end, Mu Yiyang became the chieftain, and her father and brother were killed by Mu Yiyang.

Despite this, Mu Yili did not want Nanling to suffer from the ravages of war.

Of course, this is because Mu Yili doesn’t understand Ye Wuwei.

Even if something really happened to Shui Changqing, Ye Wuwei would only avenge Shui Changqing and kill the people involved, and would not vent his anger on the entire Nanling.

If it were Qi Wushuang, it would be very likely!

If something happens to Ye Wuwei in Nanling, Qi Wushuang will definitely flatten Nanling at any cost!

At this time, Mu Yili was discussing with her uncle:

"Uncle, are the people who accompanied you to see the Shui family master that day reliable?"

“Those are families that I’m on good terms with, so they shouldn’t betray us.

If it was really done by one of them, why are we still okay?"

Mu Yili pondered:

What my uncle said makes sense.

If there were Mu Yiyang's men among the people that day, Mu Yiyang would have taken action against them long ago, and would not have remained silent until now.

but……

"Uncle, could it be that Mu Yiyang is playing the long game to catch a bigger fish?"

"You mean Mu Yiyang is waiting for us to cooperate with him from the inside and outside and then set a trap to deal with us in one fell swoop?

If that's the case, then there's no need to move against the head of the Shui family now.

Wouldn't it be alarming if we move the Shui family head now?"

Right!

Mu Yili frowned tightly: Who was the person who attacked Shui Changqing and the others?

Where is Shui Changqing?
