When Helian Xi and Chen Yu returned to Reno Country, Nangong Yu also received news. General Yuchi did not disappoint the Emperor and brought the news back to the palace.

"Your majesty, the Subordinate has already found out that Manager Situ was captured by Prince Cheng. However, this humble subject has yet to find out where he was imprisoned." Yuchi Hua reported to Nangong Yu.

"Eighth prince's disciple? How could it be him? General Yuchi, are you certain this news is true? " When Nangong Yu suddenly heard that Luo Xue's disappearance was related to her normally low-key little brother, she was somewhat unwilling to believe it.

"Your majesty, this is absolutely true. According to the people around Prince Cheng, for the past month, Prince has been sending people to monitor the medicine store's every move. Yesterday morning, they brought Manager Situ to the mountain and then made their move. However, they do not know where Miss Situ is currently imprisoned." General Yuchi had originally wanted to report this after finding out where Luo Xue had been imprisoned, but the people surrounding the prince didn't know. Thus, he had chosen to report to the Emperor first.

"Can't you find out? "Since we know it is the eighth prince's brother, why can't we find out where Xue'er is?" Nangong Yu was not happy. Even though he knew he was the eighth prince's younger brother, he still couldn't accept it. All this while, the eighth prince's younger brother had been the most 'aloof' amongst the brothers, and he was the most indifferent towards fame and fortune.

"Reporting to the emperor, I've heard that a few months ago, the king hired an extremely powerful expert from some unknown place. This person has very powerful techniques, and ordinary people are no match for him. This time, Manager Situ has been captured by this expert." Yuchi Hua gloomily reported.

"A master of magic?" Nangong Yu muttered to himself. Yuchi Hua's words made him think of Helian Chen. The skill he used that day to suddenly disappear, was it also a type of spell? If so, should this be told to Helian Chen?

"Yes, Your Majesty. I've heard that not only is a master skilled in high magic, but he is also good at creating illusions. Right now, Manager Situ has been hidden away by a deceptive trick. It is impossible for ordinary people like us to find him."

"What?" General Yuchi, since the Eighth Prince is able to find an expert, we can go too. No matter what, we have to rescue Xue'er. " Nangong Yu ordered in a stern voice.

"Your majesty, it's not that easy to find an expert. This subject is afraid that Manager Situ has already …"

It won't be, since the eighth prince has put in so much effort, he naturally won't do it just to kill her, if not, he wouldn't capture his. From my point of view, he must want to use Xue'er to threaten me, and as long as he comes to me, I can delay it for a while. From the bottom of his heart, Nangong Yu still did not want Helian Chen to interfere. Since Xue'er had disappeared from the Kingdom of Nan Qing, he naturally had the responsibility of finding her.

"Yes, your servant will do it right away." Yuchi Hua accepted the order and left. However, the world was vast, and finding an expert was easier said than done. Most true experts lived in seclusion, so he was afraid he would miss out on time to save them.

Since he knew it was the eighth prince's younger brother, then things would be much easier. Right now, he could take advantage of the fact that he hadn't come looking for him, and he could make arrangements to wait for Xue'er to rescue him before destroying him in one go.

However, he was not at ease with Helian Xi Chen, so he sent people to the medicine store to secretly investigate his movements. He did not expect that the people he sent back would not be able to find any trace of the Helian Yi father and son.

Nangong Yu's heart was filled with doubts. He wanted to personally make a trip to the medicine store, but who would have thought that Prince Cheng would enter the palace.

"Your majesty, Prince Cheng has an important matter to discuss with you." Nangong Yu had just changed into casual clothes when the attendant came to report.

"So fast. Provoke him to wait in the royal study." Nangong Yu immediately understood. The Eighth Prince's younger brother coming at this time must have something to do with Xue'er's disappearance. If that's the case, then that's good as well. It's better that the enemy knows better than not to know the situation.

"Your majesty, you've come. Let your little brother wait." Once Nangong Yu arrived at the imperial study, Nangong Cheng taunted him.

Nangong Yu was not happy. From his tone, it seemed that Xue'er was in his hands. It seemed that he had come to the palace tonight to express his condition. Even though he already knew it, his heart still ached.

Among the many brothers, only the two of them were born from the same mother. However, it was him. From the very beginning, Nangong Yu had thought of all the brothers. However, he never doubted him.

"Brother Wang, why can't you wait until tomorrow at this late hour?" Nangong Yu sat down and did not pursue the rudeness of the prince.

"Your Majesty, you and I were born to the current Empress Dowager. In the eyes of others, we are closer than brothers, but in the heart of the Emperor is this the case?" Prince De Cheng said with a teasing expression.

"Eighth Prince, I wonder what your intention is?" Nangong Yu was slightly stunned, for a moment, he did not understand the meaning behind Nangong Cheng's words. They were brothers, and he treated the bestowal matter the same way. Could it be that the Eighth Prince's disciple thinks that they were born one mother, so they should be better than the other brothers?

"The Emperor probably knows that royal brother likes Qing Er." A spark jumped in Nangong Cheng's eyes, it was as if Nangong Yu had stolen his heart.

"So, the eighth prince's younger brother did it for this. Yes, I know you like Qing'er, but I've asked Qing'er, and the person she likes is the fifth prince's younger brother. Eighth prince, don't you hate me for this?" Nangong Yu was shocked, this matter, he did not think he was wrong.

He knew that the Eighth Prince's younger brother liked the gentle and sweet younger cousin, but after he ascended the throne, he had asked Qing'er about it. However, the person that Qing'er liked was not the Eighth Prince's younger brother, so he couldn't force her into a difficult situation.

I bear a grudge, you are the emperor, my little brother dares, but this matter made my little brother understand a principle, only by sitting on the dragon throne can the affairs of the world go according to my heart, and your majesty, because you are sitting on the dragon throne, you used the power in your hand to point out your little brother's daughter to someone else. Your little brother did not want to seize the throne from you, but you forced me to do so. Nangong Chen looked at Nangong Yu with a taunting look.

Only by becoming a true monarch could this country be in its own hands, including women.

"You want me to point out Qing Er to you?" At this moment, Nangong Yu was still consoling his little brother. This matter, he was indeed lacking in consideration, but back then, he did not want to embarrass him, so after asking Qing'Er about it, he finally made the decision. Furthermore, Qing'Er and the Fifth Prince's younger brother were not married yet, so everything was still in time.

As long as I sit on the dragon throne and become the emperor, Qing'er will naturally marry me. So, your majesty, during the inauguration ceremony two months from now, I think you don't mind changing people, right? Nangong Cheng coldly looked at Nangong Yu. After saying all this, there was no other way out. If he didn't succeed, then he would die.

"Royal brother, do you know that you have already committed a crime of great disrespect? Could it be that you want to rebel?" Nangong Yu knit his brows, he never thought that just because of such a small matter, the Royal Brothers would want to make a proposal.

"Is that so? "Since the Emperor said that he wanted to rebel, then he'll rebel. If the Emperor doesn't care about that woman's life or death, you can have someone take me down right now. A life for a life is worth it." Nangong Cheng moved forward, closing in on Nangong Yu, and said this with his face close to hers.

"Royal brother, your mistake this time is outrageous. Do you know other than the woman I like, what other status does Situ Luoxue have?" Nangong Yu said with sorrow.

If he was not careful, the two countries would be at war. From Helian Xi Chen's nervousness towards Xue'er, if Xue'er was in danger, he would definitely not let her get away with it.

"Hahaha …" "Your Majesty, your servant has never dared to do anything without confidence. Since he dared to take her, he naturally has investigated her identity, and other than being the woman you like, he is also the late Queen of Renault. However, people who have already died will naturally not be taken seriously, and only you will be interested in other people's women." Nangong Cheng laughed out loud.

Emperor Ming must have his reasons for announcing the death of the Queen. But I can guarantee that he definitely did not give up on Xue'er, otherwise, he would not be in the Kingdom of Nan Qing right now. Before you made your move, did you not investigate the people around Xue'er? Nangong Yu looked painfully at his little brother, and advised.

"So what? This is the Southern Kingdom, after I inherit the throne, I will be the first one to kill Helian Zhi Chen. He actually dared to enter our country without permission, that is just courting death. Don't think that I am just as useless as you." Nan Gong Cheng was startled, but the words that came out of his mouth was even more terrifying, his words were equivalent to provoking a war between the two nations.

"Eighth brother, if you let Situ Luoxue go, I can pretend that nothing happened. As for you, Qing'er, and fifth brother, the three of you can communicate with each other. I will never interfere again." Nangong Yu put down the title of emperor and said to his younger brother.

"Is that so? You can treat it as if nothing had happened, but I can't, other than being the emperor, Qing'er can't possibly come back to me, as long as I become the emperor, Qing'er will definitely be willing to be the queen, second brother, you are my blood brother, if you really take me as your brother, then you can give me this throne, after two months, the enthronement ceremony will be my inauguration ceremony, after the completion of the ceremony, I will release that woman, at that time, if you want to double fly with her, I won't even interfere. " Nangong Cheng laughed coldly, since he had come tonight, he had no plans to turn back. He had to obtain the throne.

If you truly love Qing Er, then you should respect her. If you are still a citizen of the Southern Qing Country, then you should immediately let Xue'er go, in case you start a war between the two countries and make the people suffer. " Nangong Yu advised once again.

Nangong Yu, listen carefully, in two months, if the person sitting on the dragon throne is me, then that woman will be yours. Otherwise, you just have to wait to collect that woman's corpse, and don't think of finding someone to save her. That is impossible, in this world, other than me letting her go, no one else can save her. As Nangong Chen said this, he ignored Nangong Yu's persuasion and strode out of the palace, but Nangong Yu did not dare to stop him.
