Lord Yunzhong in Douluo

Chapter 421
Gengjin City, East Palace.

Wearing a long black dress, Zhu Lanmiao walked towards the study of the East Palace holding a plate of fruit brought out from the kitchen.

Zhu Lanmiao's long skirt was embroidered with a black one-tailed cat beast with a platinum crown on its head.

Zhu Lanmiao didn't stay too much in other places in the Eastern Palace, she walked straight to the study, she knew that Dai Mubai was studying and reading newspapers in the study at the moment.

This is what Dai Mubai would do every week after they were imprisoned in the Eastern Palace, in order to learn more information from the outside world.

As Dai Mubai's concubine and his virtuous wife, Zhu Lanmiao, who lived in Gengjin City for many years, probably has a much deeper understanding of this city and the emperor on the throne than Dai Mubai.

Although the reason is not clear, Zhu Lanmiao judged something after learning part of the situation from Dai Mubai and before knowing the rumors from the outside world.

That one seems to have other arrangements for the empire, Dai Mubai may have other functions and meanings in his eyes.

After thinking of this, Zhu Lanmiao immediately shared her thoughts with Dai Mubai.

Because in the first few days of being imprisoned, Dai Mubai's anxiety and doubts couldn't be hidden from her, the person next to her pillow.

In the entire empire, no one can really understand the emperor's mind, even if the entire empire is implementing his will.

And after being enlightened by Zhu Lanmiao, Dai Mubai also calmed down a lot.

After all, in Xingluo, the most frightening thing is not being imprisoned and used, but being useless.

Because Xingluo, a huge machine, never needs useless waste products, and the waste products are only suitable to be used as firewood for operation, to be burned up.

And after knowing the news from the outside world through certain channels, especially after knowing the rumors, Zhu Lanmiao confirmed some of her previous guesses.

Perhaps, that person is arranging Dai Mubai's retreat, providing more possibilities for the future of the empire, although he doesn't know what this possibility is, and how it will affect the future of himself and Mubai.

As Dai Mubai's partner and wife, when Zhu Lanmiao was chosen to be his spouse, she knew that her future was bound to this man.

In this empire, no one can go against the will of the emperor, and not everyone is as lucky as Zhu Zhuqing, who can meet a mentor and backer who help her resist the will of the empire.

Therefore, Zhu Lanmiao accepted her fate very early on. In this icy empire, how many people can truly control their will and body?

Of course, in the follow-up relationship, Zhu Lanmiao also truly recognized her husband, a man who is talented, wants to change, has a firm will and enough courage.

Yes, today's Dai Mubai is enough to be called a man.

Zhu Lanmiao guessed some of the emperor's thoughts, but he could only live in seclusion in this palace, thinking while maintaining stability as much as possible.

In the empire, no one can resist the emperor's will.

As the crown prince of the empire, Dai Mubai couldn't do it, and Zhu Lanmiao couldn't do it either.

Therefore, maintaining their own stability and state is the only thing they can do.

Dai Mubai was analyzing the mainland situation and their current situation based on the data, Zhu Lanmiao knew that his man's heart might not be as calm as his surface at the moment.

There are not many things I can do, except to help him analyze the situation together, and I can only maintain my inner peace as much as possible.

Now he is the only person Dai Mubai can completely rely on, if he is also flustered, it may have a lot of negative effects on him.

Zhu Lanmiao didn't want to do that.

Holding the fruit plate, Zhu Lanmiao adjusted her posture and expression, hoping that she could face Dai Mubai with the most relaxed posture, and it would be best to let him relax a little.

These days, his brows haven't been loose, they've always been tightly locked.

And at this moment, a sudden visitor entered Zhu Lanmiao's perception.

Turning his head to look at the gate not far away, a man in black walked into the Eastern Palace.

Zhu Lanmiao looked at this man, the surprise on his face was visible to the naked eye.

How is this going?

Why did the head of the Zhu family come here?Does the emperor have any new instructions?
The soldiers patrolling around did not seem to block his arrival in any way.

"Master Zhu, why are you here?"

Holding the fruit plate, Zhu Lanmiao looked at the head of the Zhu family, with a just right smile on his face, neither alienated nor close, walked to the center of the corridor, blocking the progress of the head of the Zhu family.

Now she is no longer a member of the Zhu family, she has some sense of propriety, she has to control it well.

Dai Mubai may not care, but she has to care.

The Patriarch of the Zhu family stopped in his tracks, and looked at Zhu Lanmiao with indifferent eyes. The cold eyes even made her feel that her soul was a little frozen.

Zhu Lanmiao couldn't keep the expression on her face, but she still looked at the Patriarch of the Zhu family without taking half a step back.

Then, the head of the Zhu family disappeared from Zhu Lanmiao's eyes.

Then, Zhu Lanmiao felt a pain in the back of her neck, her eyes went dark, and she passed out.

The fruit plate in his hand also fell to the ground, making a loud noise, and the fruit on it also rolled on the ground.

The head of the Zhu family caught Zhu Lanmiao's body casually, carried her off his shoulders, ignored the clanging of swords and swords outside the East Palace, and continued walking inside.

"Lan Miao? Is Master Zhu here? Why don't you tell me, I'll accompany you to meet him."

Dai Mubai's voice came from the study, and then a burst of hurried footsteps entered the ears of the Patriarch of the Zhu family.

Not long after, a blond man came into the sight of the head of the Zhu family.

Dai Mubai looked at the Patriarch of the Zhu family, with no abnormal expression on his face, showing a bit of a smile:
"Long time no see, Mrs. Zhu. I made you laugh. Lan Miao has been suffering from insomnia recently. It looks like she fell asleep again. Thank you for helping her."

Unhurriedly, the Patriarch of the Zhu family, Dai Mubai stretched out his two hands, trying to take his wife.

"Master Zhu, give me Lan Miao, I will take her into the room to rest for a while."

Facing Dai Mubai with an unstable expression, when Zhu Lanmiao was about to be picked up on his shoulders, the Patriarch of the Zhu family took two steps back, still staring at Dai Mubai with cold eyes.

Dai Mubai's complexion slowly changed, and the sound of swords and soldiers facing each other in his ears also gradually subsided.

Suddenly, the floor shattered, and the invisible tiger burst out with its own strength, and the bright right hand of Platinum Light slammed into the right chest of the Patriarch of the Zhu family at an extremely fast speed.

Zhu Lanmiao was resisted on the left shoulder by the head of the Zhu family.

Then, Dai Mubai's attack was caught by the head of the Zhu family.

Then, Dai Mubai also fainted.

Not long after, the Patriarch of the Zhu family walked out of the East Palace with a black, a white, a man and a woman on his shoulders, one on the left and one on the right, and looked at the guards in black who were standing outside holding bloody weapons:
"Very well, now start the next step."

"Get out of Gengjin City."
